utes. Within they could hear the
doctors low voice every now and
then, and presently Mile answered
him.
Then the door opened and he anne
out.
"She's better" he said, setting
his little black bag down on the floor
beside him. "She says the pain has
gone, and she's not sure just where
il was. She says il was all over her
body. I'll be mere first thing in the
morning. and If she has another at
tack tonight, call me up. Don't hesi-
tatel"
Then as quickly and quietly as he
had come, he was gone.
Mrs. Jerome gave Sally a disgust
ed look. Nov, isn't that just like a
fool d~octor?" she exploded, when the
door had closed behind him. "Never
telling a person what's the matter!
She might have gall stones, or ap-
pendicitis, or a dozen other things,
and we'd never know it," She opened
the bedroom door and went in.
Mile was lying against the pill
lows, but her face was turned to-
wards them now, and there was a
tiny smile on her lips.
Looking at her, Sally knew that no
matter what she did that was selfish

and cruel and thoughtless, she would
always love her-and love her as
generously rs she always had.
"Why, il anything happened 10 her
I'd die" she said to herself. "And IL
any girl is going to have John Nye,
I'm glad that girl is Mile"
She leaned across the bed and
kissed her. Mile smiled YEARLY NJ
at her onee more. Then she turned
her face to the wall and went to
sleep instantly, as sick people often
do.
In the morning. when Sally left
for the office, she was better, al
though she still had n fever.
Better not give her anything to
eat until the doctor gets here" were
Sally's parting words to her mother.
you know what they say-'Starve a
fever"
"Good food never hurt anybody"
answered Mrs. Jerome, firmly. but
I'm not going near her unless she
calls me. She's still cross about my

poor Beau, and I'm not going in
there and let her hector me about it
all this livelOng day.

Mr.. Peevey showed his glasses up
on his forehead and glared Ct her
thoughtfully. "That must be quite a
family of yours" he said at the end
Of severed minutes. "Are they all IN
yalids ?"
"Not quite" Sally grinned at him,
showing a flash of white teeth and
an adorable dimple. "Look az me! 1

Mr.. Peevey gave his inimitable
grunt. swell, hurry up with my

tiers lately"

s~easonably hot afternoon that he be-
gan TO talk to her again about her
own affairs.
well, l see our neighbor across
the hail is on a little vacation" he
said in his tart way, and nodded to-
wards John Nye's office.
The door Of it stood open, and
within Sally could see Miles as
sistant sitting idly at her desk, turn
ing the pages Of a magazine.
Yes" said Sally, with a little
catch in her voice. For every tina
| she looked into that office she seem
ed to see John Nye, as she had seen
him that first day standing beside
the window, hands in pockets, whis-
Ting "High-high-high-up on the
hill" How long ago that seemed!
II thought maybe he and your sis

both gone today" remarked Mr..
Peevey. "Sure that isn't what's hap

Sally flushed. 81 told you my sis

Peevey," she answered, drawing her
self up in the most dignified way.
"Oh, that's right-that's right. Ny
mistakei" apologized Mr.. Peevey,
who remembered perfectly what she
had said.
He was always trying to catch
people in lies. He said they were
all liars-especially
He never had caught Sally in a
falsehood yet. But he had not given
up hope. =.
There's Nye, now-Oh. no, IL

drifted in TO where Sally stood be-
side Mr.. Peevey's desk.
"Ill 70 and tell him that Miles

Of hers" she said and went out into
