The servant Martha's face when
she looked at the sick boy was a
pitiful sight. Her craggy features
looked as though they would
crumble.
Turning from the bed, she set
her face once more in its accus-
toned sternness and said,
"Guess I'd better call the gro
Gerry. We're out of lemons. John
wants lemonade"
Although the basic cause Of Mrs
McNabb's anger at Martha re-
manned as it had been at noon that
day, the grief in the maids face
made her forget the harsh words
she had spoken.
"Get a case Of canned fruit juice
and a lot of fresh fruit, too, Mar.

just burning with fever"

women worked with the sick
youngster. The doctor stopped in

That was the wrong thing to
have said. Mrs. McNabb threw
her good intentions of leaving the
doctor to his Tenderleaf Tea to the
winds and stated crisply: "Bill, l
want to talk to you about Martha"
"Dr. McNabb! DR.. McNabb!"
Martha called from the kitchen in
a frightened voice. "Look out the
wiz dow at that car. It just stopped
out front and they're carrying
John out Of the car. John must be
sick"
Mrs. McNabb and the doctor
hurried to the front door where
two men stood supporting young
John McNabb.
"Hi, Nom ;. Dad" the hand
some youngster grinned feebly.
"Tell Martha 1 need a lemonade.
A cool one. A great big one"
With that he slipped into un-
consciousness and slid out of the
mems grasps onto the porch floor.
Standing behind the boys par
ents, the maid, Martha, cried out
hoarsely, "Take him up to his

that tale.
