Mother wouldn’t be home for a half hour, Merry donned an apron and went to the kitchen. But Worth couldn’t be engaged to any one else. “Believe me, I’ve never felt like this about any one else,” he had said. (She brushed aside determinedly n-ow the scene Sue Williams had made the week after she’d passed Merry and Worth in Warth’s -car? She had driven over to Reed, had arrived purposely just as Merry got out of class. “I’ve talked to Judge Hunter to be sure I was right,” she had said when she’d got Merry alone. “And I’m warning you. This silly infatuati-on of Worth’s for you is wrapped up in his own heroics. It ’ won’t last. Worth and I have loved each other from childhood. You cann’t kill a love like that. 'His father knows Worth. He says prone to silly infatuations. Judge was himself, when he young. But they don’t last.” had paused and narrowed her.eyes thoughtfully. “Don’t forget. Worth belongs to me. Get wise to your- self before he breaks your ih-eart—' -What else -Sue .had planned to say Merry -did not know.

She had sihut her mind immed­ iately to any consideration of (Sue’s remarks. After all, this was (Sue’s revenge. Nothing more. True, Worth hadn’t asked her to marry him, but he had spoken fervently of “S-ome day,” when he would “have the right to—” He had never finished that sentence. Something had inter­ rupted—something intervened at that golden moment. But she had thought she understood—and yet it was a queer, stiff sort of sentence— made so, she had thought, by the idealism of their love, by the glam­ our in which they found themselves always when they were together. ir fled, room until down Mother Disappears Merry sprinkled salt on the steps so that Mother coming home would not slip. She cleaned the house methodically, thinking of Worth, planning what she would say to him on (Saturday night. He had written he would be here on Saturday night. (Suddenly Merry aroused herself to- the realization that it was dark. Already Mother was very late. Could there be a teacher’s meeting? But Mother always .phoned, always let hei- know when she was detained. Merry called the school. The phone rang repeatedly. It was the janitor who finally answered, “Evedybody’s gone long' ago,” he said. And lonely moves fondly, to dominate. It’s because she’s such a <iear. We depend on her so. And she always understands.” All at -once Merry ached with im­ patience to tell Mother everything about Worth. She realized that Bob had added the final straw. She could no longer beai’ this great wonderful secret. She wouldn’t need to say much, wouldn’t need to be embarrassed fox- words to tell Mother that Worth loved her, that she loved him. Mothex* understood so easily. And Merry would even tell hex* what Bob said, so that Mother could reassure her. Mothei* had spoken kindly of Worth. Mothex’ liked him. Another half hour passed. There was something wrong. Dread weigh­ ed Merry’s footsteps. She went to the kitchen, finds the things that Mother had ordered fox’ supper, peeled the 'potatoes, made the salad She’s started to fry the chops when the phoxxe rang. A strange quiet crept into hex* pulses as Merry hurried phoneward. It was as if she sensed the inevit­ able summons of fate in its impa- ient ringing. CHAPTER XXI Merry clutched the telephone tremulously. “Is this Miss Millington?” a brisk Voice asked. “Yes.” “This is the Riverview Hospital.” There was a slight pause. “A woman We believe is Mrs. Millington of that address is here.

Cold fear clutched at her heart—cold -growing fear! With shaking fingers she attempt­ ed to dial John’s number, but before she could finish she heard his step on the front porch.

You’re .beautiful and you don’t look sick a bit,” she smiled. 'But, just to be sure, she excused herself f-or a moment and went in search -of Miss Brockaman, the head nurse. She could never quite remember the details of what followed, John forcing a coat and hat on her when she would have gone as she was, John speaking -quietly though his eyes were wide with dismay and ap­ prehension. John holding himself back, forcing himself to drive cau­ tiously ovei- the mirror-like streets, and, at last, John running with her between ice-encased shrubs and trees to the hos-pital door. A moment later, with tears stream­ ing -quietly down their faces, they stood hand-in-hand beside Helen — Helen who was palt -and bandaged and silent. “Is she—?” John gulped. “How is she?” A doctor and a nurse were bend­ ing over the doctor how badly taking her They wheeled hex’ onto an eleva­ tor. “You’d better wait .here,” the nurse said.

Get some sleep . -But Merry couldn’t! No matter what happened she -could not leave. They sat clinging to each other on the uncomfortable, high-backed seat in the hall, their eyes intent on the door, their throats tight with fear as they watched the nurses come and go. Merry didn’t know she had slept at all until she heard her name called, saw John had risen, saw the doctor beside him. “We -can go in now,” John uncertainly. Gray Dawn said dim for­ ward, -could not be sure of anything until they were very close. “Mother!” she breathed, in her voice all the\pent-up love and ap­ preciation which she had felt dur­ ing the ghastly night watch. They were all bending close, Hel­ en’s eyelids flickered. She opened tih-em, looked at Merry, at John, at the doctors and smiled wanly. “Tired,” she murmured and ed them again. The n-urse led them out. ‘‘She knew you,” the doctor said “That’s encouraging.” .And Helen ,did improve; until a ■week later when Merry rushed into her room at late afternoon, she was sitting up- “-Ducky!” Merry exclaimed in de­ light. “Oh, it’s good to see you this way.” (She bent laid a fragrant, before helped her open (more fun spending my allowance and John’s.” (Helen smiled, |She was still -pale, but suffering was no.t written so obviously as is had been upon her face. “I hope not much of your al­ lowance,” she protested. But -she saw that Merry must have taken all -of it to buy the exquisite bed jacket which she un­ folded------a soft lovely blue, a style which flattered, a silken daintiness which caressed. “Put it on! here let me -help you! It's from John, too-. -So be wearing it when he -comes!” Deftly she help­ ed her mother slip ijito it. “Umm! you look like an angel!” “And you are angels—you and John!” -Helen gasped, gazing down at their gift, pleased and surprised. (Looking about the room for a chance to improve her mother’s en­ vironment, Merry glimpsed a new bouquet on a stand by itself-—pink rosebuds in a blue bowl, “How perfectly -gorgeous, Mother! Who sent them?” “I don’t know! There wasn’t any card, -Do you notico? There are two dozen as perfect as wax,” “Umm! iSecret admirer! ’ ’■"’*5 her mothcr’a forehead gayly, “And why not?

I’ve had Merry A New Fidentl “Really, she is better,” Miss Brockaman assured her. “Of course it all takes time, but------ Oh! I did have something to say to you. Wait.” She hurried down the corridor and came back a moment later with a tall man, whose well-gr-oomed, wavy hair, graying at the temples, lent him an air cf distinction. “This is Dr. English, Miss Millington. The doctor bowed gravely. ■“Dr. 'English,” Miss Brockaman went on, “is chief surgeon in a large Eastern huspital. He is attending the medical -convention here and yesterday was called in on a ease. He had bee interested in doctors have told -him of ther’s injury—” “I was waiting for you he smiled, “to ask you if you would mind inviting me—-just -unofficially —to look in. I mean—Well, I would hardly like to without some sort of invitation—” Merry looked in bewilderment from the doctor to Miss Brockman, “-Of course, it would be up to ycur mother and her doctor later if Dr. English were consulted,” Miss Brockman reassured her, though she seemed a little ill at ease. “But he is recognized as the best in our country—It might be he is here—” “Why, yes,” Merry The doctor walked down the hall. Miss turned to her charts quickly as if to seek refuge in them. Just before they reached Mothers room Dr. English drew Merry aside. “Now we must be tactful about this,” he said, a confidential twinkle in his grey eyes helping t-o dispel the awe she felt for him. “Do’nt let her think we feel she is in danger.” “Is she?” Merry breathed qui-ckly “I don’t think so. But suppose you tell her some of the doctors from the convention are visiting this hos­ pital. Would she object if one of them dropped in to see her— just c-f obseiving—” He extended -his •hands. -Long, capable - appearing hands. ed in spite of herself. “All right, darling, if the nurse approves,” “Oh, she does!

Dr. English was walking slowly back and forth outside, his -hands -behind him, tills eyes apparently studying the tips of his well-polished shoes, their ers. He set?” “All set,” Merry breathed. iShe hestitated before him. “Should I— wait outside?” He considered a moment, a little frown gathering between his eyes. “I’ve thought of that. I believe— right at first, anyway—you should go in with me. I think it would be better.” Merry saw John suddenly round the corner down the long :She saw Miss Brockaman deliberately detain him.

IShe turned toward her mother’s door With There was started to something meant he had to see meant—(She paused dong enough, to create a serene appearance before going in. “Um, Ducky, you are gorgeous -in that bed jacket!” She fought to keep despaii’ from her tone. She pat­ ted the soft waves of her mother’s ■hair. Mother was so dear! “You have a chance to show off (before John gets here,” she whispered. (“Dear -God," she prayed silently, “whatever it is, make it all right!”) “Wihat do you mean?” Helen smiled indulgently. “Why—there’s a medical conven­ tion in town, you know and—some of the doctors are visiting this hos­ pital.
