THE VERDICT DR. PETTIT
GAVE TO LILLIAN AND
AND MADGE
s , "Marlon!" i
The, name of my friend's child
came in an awe-stricken murmur
from my lips as, at my mother-in-law's
behest, I turned from my
, own injured son to the couch
where Lillian's Idolized daughter
lay so white and still that I feared
the life had find from 'her i .'
: Lillian neither spoke nor look
: d toward me, and I followed her
strained eyes to Dr. Pettit's' face.
It was professionally non-commit-
tal. but I saw with an icy little
chill at ray heart that he was
making the usual tests to deter
mine the, existence or! non-exist-
ni Af thn vital snark Itself.
With Lillian's pallid anguished
: face before me I felt guilty at the
joy and relief which were surging
madly through my veins. ' . My
child was safe; apparently, but
hers- I who knew, better than
any one , else how , closely knit
were the hearts of Lillian and her
: adorable young daughter, felt my
own heart chill as I watched the
physician's long, slender marvel
lously efficient hands at work.
. "Ma ma turn Dooner.' Doo

: The plaintive little cry'tpre at
me. it any one ever had told me
that I could refuse to go to my
baby when he was injured and
crying for me, ij would have
laughed, scornfully,' unbelievingly
at the idea. But so long as he
was in no danger, and in his
grandmother's royally tender care,
I could not desert' my f riend in
her bitter hour. j
! Dr. Pettit straightened himself,
and Lillian swayed toward him.
"Is she " the words were a
raucous whisper from lips almost
too! stiff to frame them!
"Be Heady to Help."
! "She is alive." He uttered the
words with quick,' crisp, emphasis,1
put out his arm as he did so, and
grasped and ' supported for a
needed second Lillian's swaying;
trembling figure. ' Then as 1 I
moved forward, he put; her intoJ
tny arms and she leaned against
me for an' instant with quick, lal
bored breathing, as if she had
been' running. I remembered the
attacks .she had recently suffered,
and I wondered "how most quickly
and quietly I could get the reme-
aies, sne ueea, wnen sne spone
tensely under her breath:
Tm all right. Be ready to
help." - - j ' ; v , : :
; She stepped away from me, and
stood like a soldier at attention
while the physician bent over
Marion again. Even through the
terror of the moment I could not

accident he Is a tower of strength,
and one feels as safe as is human

voice, though low1, was like a pis

tonish those ; who haven't really
thought of how big the magazine
business is. r
The Ace handles approximately
100,000 magazines a year. The
average price is close to 15 cents,
or possibly more, for the really
big sellers are mostly of a higher
price. Rather curiously, the sales
of the Saturday Kvening Post and
The Country Gentleman, both' 5
cent magazines, are comparatively
small; only about 85 Posts and a
dozen Gentlemen, j The heaviest
sale of all, 150 copies a month,
is credited to The American Mag
azine. Next to this comes Mc
Call's and The Woman's Home
Companion.. They sell, 140 each.
Time iStories circulates 125 a
month, and; there are never
enough to go round.
The Red nook and Pictorial, the
latter a publication that claims
to pay the highest rates of all
magazines in America, sell 100
each. The Ladies' Home Jour
nal sells in an equal number, and
so does Good Housekeeping, the
rather exclusive Hearst home
publication.
