 You both may come," she said, when Mrs. Mann remained sitting. Tt really won't take long,"
 An hour later Mr. and Mrs. Mann emerged from Dr. Riggs office and walked down the street 10 the market.
 Mir. Mann spoke first.
 Really not so bad, after all," he said.
 "No, but remember what he said about your heart" was the tart re- ply.
 And now John, you're going to let up on smoking that pipe so much, and, after this you are going to eat pork but once a day"

' ded in assent to my unspoken thought, and then taking her place al the head of the stretcher gave the word for Its lifting. With in- finite pains the three men and Mrs. ricer lifted the pathetic burden and bore it to my room, where Lillian sat in an easy chair with Marion standing watchfully by her. I, bringing up the rear and steadying the foot of the cot, as Katherine had requested, had an unusual op- portunity to watch the mother and daughter. l told myself that I never had seen anything more beautiful than the devotion limned in their faces, so strikngly similar in fea- ture and expression.
 Bring her close 10 the side of the bed" Katherine directed. "Madge, you are pretty strong and she isn't heavy. Will you take MT, Ticer's place on that side? Careful when you shift hands. Get good grip. Madgc. Are you ready? All right, MT Ticer. Now, If you'll come around this side and lift her very carefully into the bed. I'll take her feet. There. Thank you so much. We'll excuse you men now. Erd Mrs. Ticer. wish you'd see that I have plenty of hot water. You'd better fill the hot-water bottles and bring them to me, and also fill the ice cap, which you'll find in a la beled box in the closet off the bath room. Then we'll be prepared for anything the doctor orders. What's thls?" She took up a corner of the sheet. AS I live, a hospital bed. and a mighty well-made one! Did you do that while you were up here? You're a record-breaker."
 "I Thought You'd like One"
 You didn't say hospital bed" Mrs Ticer said, while a flush of pleasure colored her cheeks at Katherines praise. but I thought perhaps you'd like one, and the things were all handy - Mrs. Gra- i ham has a whole hospital supply in the closet, anyway so it didT't take me but a minute 10 fix if. I belonged to a tirst-aid during the war and we used to race to see who was the quickest. It did us all good; kept up hustling. I'll get those things for you now,'
 T think I know who used to win the races" Katherine called after her. Then, Marion having gone with Mrs. Ticer we three - Katherine, Lillian and l with memories of many bits of strenuous work shared, stepped close to the side of the bed and gazed with pity and curiosity at the girl whom Fate had so strangely thrown in Ltllian's path.

The office girl admitted two rather uneasy appearing persons, who gave their names as MT. and Mrs. John Mann of Anytown.
 ''Dr, Riggs is expecting you, I believe" she smiled, handing them copies of magazine two months old,
 MT. and Mrs. Mann nodded, and the girl disappeared into the doc tors office.
 You're first, remember" Mrs. Mann whispered 10 her husband when the girl had left. Hope We don't have to stay here all after noon. Got to go to the market, yet you know"
 Mr. Mann continued 10 glance through his magazine, and looked up only when the office girl re-

Ann and Raggedy Andy" Lady Lindy told them, T used to invite MT. Mugguns here to enjoy the things 1 wished for but he was not satisfied with that, he wanted the stick himself!"
 Dear me. What a selfish crea- lure he must be-" Raggedy Ann said. T think 1t is nice that you have the magic stick, Lady LinIv," Raggedy Andy said, "But l should never want to take it away from you as old Mugguns docs."
 "I know that, my dear" Lady Lindy said as she gave Raggedy Andy a pat on his back. But we may expect Mugguns to keep try ing until finally he gets the stick"
 Trump, Trump! Thump" came a knock on the door Then the loud voice of Mugguns cried, "I heard what you said about me and know Raggedy, Ann and Raggedy Andy are in there with you. And, when l get you, l shall take Rag gedy Ann's candy heart and eat it, and also take the magic stick"
 As soon as Mugguns began yell ing in the key hole, Lady Lindy and the Raggedys remained quiet, for they knew 1t would do no good to answer him. And, when they did not answer him, Mugguns grew very angry. q will run home and get a hammer and break the door open!' he promised.
 And sure enough in a few min utes here he came with the ham, mer. win you lot me borrow the magic stick for a moment, Lady Lindy?" Raggedy Andy asked.
 So Lady Lindy loaned Raggedy Andy the stick and he immediately wished for it to make him invis- ible. And that wish was one wish which came true. Then Raggedy Andy slipped out another door and ran around the house 10 where Mugguns had started hammering on the door. Mugguns did not know anyone was near until Raggedy Andy gave him a hard thump which knocked Mugguns' hat way up in the air and made him drop inc hammer on/ his big toe. My! How the creature howled. He did rot even stop 10 pick up his hat but went scampering toward home as last as he could go and Raggedy Andy called after him in a reaI deep tone.
 And if you come back, l vii eat you up" And MUgguns though to himself. Dear me! That mus have been an invisible giant! shall not go back there very soon!'

Chips stared up into the darkness agape. The order sounded like the raving of a madman. Didn't this queer captain realize his ship was ashore? Others muttered, too. Even Mir. Adams whispered to MT. Twin ing that he had always believed there was something funny about the Old Mans eyes.
 "All the anchors and chains is aft, sir, except the kedge out to the hawser astern," stammered Chips.
 Never mind 1t, then. We'll swing to the kcdge," Drake retorted. Get those sails set, smartly, Mister Twining, take some men to the capstan and keep a strain. And you lads get aloft and overhaul the top sail gear. Lively now!"
 AS he spoke. Alden Drake heard rebellious voices. He cooly ignored them. The apprentices and the men left to Mir. Adams dragged listless- Iy at the ropes, in spite of the lusty shouting of Adams. Drake flung off his jacket. Ho ran to the helm, dashed 1t amldships, and then took the poop ladder at a leap and ap- peared among the men at the main topsaiI halliards. The hawser stretched along the deck began to sing and creak to the clacking of capstan pawls forward.
 Come, lads! We're sailormen, aren't we? Don't tell me we can't pull this ship off the beach just be- cause a few yellow CUTS run away with tails down! You there. Bunt- ing? Start tune, my lad! The ship Cnly needs a gooi pull and q breath O Wind." Drake ,leaped on to the starboard rail, and reached high up the topsail haliards as he spoke. There was a stir among the sullen men. One of the boys shrilled a cheer. Joe Bunting cleared his wheezy throat noisily, and yelpcd right manfuly:
 'Ho, a long time ago an the
 world wuz begun"
 And like gathering storm tho chorus howled.
 Hey, ho, th' wind an the rain"
 An they buiIded a ship fer tn Java run" bawled Joe. The storm fell full on the next line.
 Hey, ho. 1t raineth every day" There was no doubt about if The heavy yard was going UT smartly. Drake pulled through 2nt more verse:
 "Ho, th' captain reckoned wrong
 for he'd quite forgot ih
 date."
 believed Joe, daringly improvising
 Hey. ho, the wind and the rain"
 So e stuck lis ship ashore ir
 tn bloomin' Sunder Strait! And how they thundered that las line:
 Hey, ho, 1t raineth every day!' ! Drake laughed and leaped from the rail. There was no more fesI that the men would shirk. Little Joe Bunting had dared much, anf i had made Alden Drake his 1ebtol l for life. Drake ran forward, If h' could put the same ginger into that gang as Bunting had into th' halliard crowd, his ship was a! good as afloat,

In the expectation of all night in. But Bill Gadgett was a humorist, in a fashion. He remembered oc- casions when some of the men had been less respectful than they might have been. He started his pipe burning, and strolled across to the forecastle door, in which he ap- peared quite casually as Tubbs laid down the opinion amidst a sullcn rumble of approval:
 Them as ought 10 know, has got out, ain't they? There's goin' 10 be some dead sailors in this 'ooker afore she gifts orf. A bloody dood as buys ships to work pore sailors to death ain't no sort to sail ships. Look at tn bleedin' rats, too! Scores of lem come out O the 'atch when we wuz-"
 "'Ave yer smoke an turn in early, me lads" cut in Bill Gadgett innocently. as if he had heard noth- ing. Its all lands again at mid night. There's a skipper in this ship, me sons, an don't yer forgit it."
 "All 'ands? Wot the-?" Some body jumped up and started 10 shout; but the bosun had gone as casually as he had appeared, leav- ing a trail of rocking smoke be- hind him not half as bitter and hot as the words that followed him.
 The sailors sat on their sea chests or hunks and glarcd at each other dumbly. Some of the workers look ed mutinous. Tubbs and Sims drew off to their own side of the fore castle and talked hotly; one by one their cronies joined them. Soon that side was buzzing with fierce, hoarse, whispered argument. On the other side, Joe Bunting and Nick Coombs turned slowly and faced each other. Joe removed his pipe and let it hang between finger and thumb. His lips were parted Nick took his pipe out and rubbed the hot bowl gently against his nose. Thus they stared into each others faces. For a full minute without a word they remained; then each turned de- libcrately, lifted his legs into his bunk, and lay down 10 get what rest he might. One by one the others of that watch followed their example in all except the matters of the pipes and the silence. Then Bill Gadgett reappeared for an elo- quent second, parked out as if he wanted the job done quickly:
 Your anchor watch. Tubbs." and vanished again.
 Very surprisingly, there was no abusive protest.
 "An right, Bose" Tubbs called out promptly, and entered into his argument again. Men on the other side Of the foreCastle waited in ex- pectation of some outburst. Nope came. They rolled over to sleep, The mutineers were windy, but had no guts They all said that under their breath as they closed their ! eyes.
 At midnight the mates knocked out their pipes and called the bosun. They had been called by one of the apprentices. Neither saw anything l remarkable about that Some boys do get on deck promptly. Drake ap- peared, sniffing at the soft breeze that blew of the island stepping to ! the rail to appraise the tide. The ship felt buoyant underfoot. The crew began to troop aft, grumbling, some still smoking, some coming briskly. others slouching as a pro- test. Sails and Chips came, then Bill Gadgett.
 "'Arf the mems gorn, sir" he
 cried excitedly.

 At that time I thought the world was against me. but l was only drunk.
 You looked so forlorn when you opened those great round eyes with fear and said: Don't give me over 10 the police, I'm just going, sir. ' Then as l lurched against you, you remarked eagerly; T really believe you're drunk"

 You see, Mamie, I thought no one in the world cared for me and l had received a great ragging from my secretary that afternoon. She told me that l Was neglecting my business and drinking too much. l was just drunk enough to think the world was all right again when you said you were glad.
 When I asked you why you were glad I was drunk, you answered: "Drunken men may be divided into two classes - good and bad-na- tured animals - and you're good natured one. Please take me into your house. I'm hungry and very cold"

Madge Sees Lillian and Marion In
 New Light

NtW lflEul
 That Lillian's mysterious protege was in some sort of swoon or deep stupor was apparent to all Of us when sam Ticer lifted her slight figure and laid her upon the stretch CT. She neither opened her eyes nor spoke, while her heavy breathing and the peculiar color of her face told even those of Us inexperienced in illness that it was indeed very sick woman whom we had brought home.
 q want to keep her on as nearly 8 level plane as possible" Kather- inc said, assuming the direction of things with the fine professional capability which we all recognized. q will go first and steady her head, Madge, you follow at her feet, You three men and Mrs. Tcer, two on side, lift at the same time when I give the word. Lillian, I'm not giving you anything 10 Io. You know best why'
 I caught the van smile with which Lillian answered her and realized that with the temporary transferring of responsibility for her self-asumed charge, her iron will and pose were letting down the barriers to physical exhaustion.
 "I1l Go ur Ahead"
 'I'll go up ahead of you, If you don't mind,' she said, and as she started up the stairs l heard Mar- ion say, imperatively;
 Junior, sit down on that chair over there and don't you stir till I get back. ] must go to my mother"
 She ducked under Jim's arm and darted up the stairs, overtaking her mother upon the landing. l saw her take her mothers arm and place 1t on her strong, young shoulder, and, thus supporting her, disappear into the upper hall.
 Not Robert Savarin, nor any other" 1 murmpred to myself as l saw the look which aloring Lillian turned upon her young daughter. "Marion is all she needs."
 For l had seen something in Ltl- Hans face which l do not think my friend yet knew herself was in her heart - look of leaning, of de- pendence - the first that l ever had seen in inc countenance of Lil- Han Underwood. For so many years she has borne her own burden and those of everybody within reach of her. And 1t was given me in that moment to realize that while de- rendence upon any one else in the world would be a bitter draught for my friend, 1t would be tneXpressi- bly, sweet for her to lean upon the strength of the child she adored.
 Katherine followed my look, nod

and candy and things like that. Lady Lindy WIS moi quite happy though, even if she did own the magical stick but that wasn't quite her fault.
 Not far from the cunning home of Lady Lindy, there lived a strange little man with very crooked legs and his name was Mugguns
 Mugguns found out in some way that Lady Lindy had the uice stick and he was just selfish enough to want it for ms very own.
