What the Doctor Told Lillian, and What Dicky Had to Say to Madec

What the Doctor Told Lillian, and
 What DicI>y Had to Say to Madec
 It was many days before even Lillian learned the details of Robert Savarin's strange journey in quest of Harry Underwood. He had evidently gathcred all his strength to tell her of his failure to bring her definite news of her erstwhile husband, and when the last word left his lips his utter e;,- haustfon was pitiably apparent.
 The nurse came forward swiftly, but Lillian:s eyes had been as quick as here. She gave the great. appeal ing eyes before her the assurance they so hupcrly awaited
 "tINcrything is all right" she said, slowly. distinctly. Nothing in the world matters except that you arc safe home with your sister and me. Just let us take care of you. and don wOrry."
 She kissed him, and then stepped quickly aside as the nurse brought another restorative for the man whose whole appearance suggested the fear that soon he would be De- yOnd the reach of any human remedy The nurse. with her finger on hlS pulse, watched him closely, then ap-, p9rentlN relieved DN the elLecl 'l liSl effort. made a signal with her un- occupied hand, which swept us noise lessly out of the room into the cor ridOr outside, where we Walted. miserably apprehensive, until the nurse came out to us.
 Lillian .AmazeS Nad@c
 Hes resting peacefully for the present" she said. "But he mustn be allowed to speak again of anything exciting. And for the next few hours ] can have no one in the room but myself"
 Upon his arrival, little later, the physician not only upheld the nurses decision, but announced that the same policy of absolute quiet must be enforced for days. He promised Lillian and Mrs. COsgrOVe that after the first dangerous day or two they might take turns in relieving the nurse, reiterated his belief that the artist had been under a most un- usual nervous strain, and hghtened the weight that had settled upon us by holding out a distinct hope for the ultimate recovery of the strlcken man.
 Lillian rallied to this as if it were a slogan. With her old energy she planned for Mrs. CosgroveI5 comfort,

 Her off-hand chara cterization

 It wasn't the first time I had heard
 this criticism of my husbands gar

 I glanced at him sharply, wonder ing in diSmay if he meant it. But the next instant I had caught the twinkle in his eve, which told me that he
