THE REASON RITA- BROWN
ASKED HOW MADGE FELT.
When I awakc-ned It was to th
consciousness of Dicky's : face
close to mine, his arms still clasp

moBt probably had piled pillows
behind him to relieve the strain
of h!s position, and his eyes were
closed.
I guessed that when he had

bated for a moment upon the ad
visability of waking him. The
thought of the strained arm mus

long" vigil quickly decided me,
andil stirred in his arms and
spoke softly:
"Dicky!"
His eyes flew open instantly;
and "he started convulsively. Then
he looked anxiously at me.
"What Is It, sweetheart? In
pain?"
From the. couch where she had
beeri sleeping my mother-in-law
sat up quickly.-: - .
"What's the matter? Is ' she
feeling; worse?"; she demanded.

the luxury of .being the object of
so much solicitude', then answer

Dicky' consulted his watch. '

"Ifa after 11. I'm sure the
diner must be on by this time.
What do you want?"
, "It isn't a question of what she
wants," my mother-in-law struck
In firmly. "Irs What she can
have. Yotf order a pot of weak
tea and two (slices ot dry toast
withou t butter," arid "tell them to
put a salt cellar on the tray. If
she stands that all right we'll
see about something else after a
while."
