 "Oh. yes! Inside l am-burning! She caught at the edge of the table, breath ing loudly. My lover is at Ypres,"
 The surgeon touched her arm. My son is at Ypres.' he said. The nurse stared at his calm self controlled face; it gave her fresh courage. She handed the scalpel to him quite steadily and the operation proceeded.
 Presently four orderlies entered. bringing on stretchers two wounded Germans whom they placed in a corner. Neither the man nor the girl, bending over the table, raised her eyes until their work was finished Then they turned to the unconscious men where they lay on the floor. As the nurse was behind the surgeon. he did not see how white her face became while he made his nasty examination. Suddenly standing upright, he turn ed to her Nurse, I said you might rest, but I am going to ask a special favor. One of these boys is my son l They both need an operation so badly that there is time to save only one. Will you help me operate on my boy?"

 was heavy and dark It did not occur to him to wonder how the girl knew which was his son.
