'Yes, 1 am Dr. Hamilton."
Sirs. Ward wants you to come to

"All riut. I ll go at once."
"Confound It!" exclaimed the doctor
a be hung up the receiver and return
d to a party of bachelors he waa en
tvrtnlnlng at dinner. He had that verj
duy declined an Invitation from Ibis
Mro. Ward, a wealthy young widow, to
escort her to tbe opera, bis excuse be
lug that he bad a patient in charge
whom he could not leave. The real
rause of his declining waa that a col
lege clnsKiimte had come to town and
:he doctor desired to give blm a tg
dinner til his house.
"Vim rclliitrs keep the ball rolling."
he si "I've got a call and must
leave you fur awhile. Patrick, keep ths
Kcullfuieii well supplied with win.
There's a fresh box of cigar In to
sidehourd."
Dr. Hamilton was In too much of
curry to get back to tbe party to wall
tor his own horse and fortunately
found a passing cab. In ten mlnutea be
waa at lira. Ward'. He found her on
lounge In tbe library dressed In din
ner costume, a lamp with a rose tinted
shade standlug on a table beside her
astlng a very becoming light on bei
laee. The doctor advanced and, taking
ber wrist between hi fingers, looked 1
her aearchlngly.
"What's tbe trouble?" he asked.
'I don't know. After dinner I was
seized with a very singular feeling."
Where?"
"In the ear."
The doctor removed the shade from
tbe lump and, taking a little glaaa from
bis Instrument satchel, threw concen
trated rays of light into tbe wldow'e
left ear. binding nothing unusual
there, he examined the other ear.
"It's quite possible," be aald. "that 'a
tiny bug crawled Into your par and
crawled out again. You hear nothing
onusual now?"
"No, I haven't heard anything no
usual."
"Then what was the sensation?"
"A terrible longing."
"Longing for wbatt"
"There It la again!" And tremni
ran over her shapely frame.
Tbe doctor, thinking that It might Ik
a aymptom of Insanity, looked steadily
Into her eye. It waa clear as a bell,
oft and liquid, aa it met hi. Tber
waa not even the allghteat Indiualloa
of nerve tension. The doctor was pus
