Do you suppose there is a single per son of 40 todsy who can't look back on an early mistake?" "I'm through," Zoe said with final ity, "Life it's done for me, Kay. You don't know ah, you don't know. What wouldn't I give to bo like youl Noth ing seems to hurt you." Katharine said nothing to this. There was nothing one could say. Zoe was like a deaf woman, a blind wom an. She was aware of nothing hut her own raw wound. There were steps on the stairs, and Katharine, distracted by the res sponsibility of her charge, was reliev ed to see Dr. Kaye at the door. "Johnny, can't you give her some thing to make her sleep?" Zoe overheard. She rose, swaying giddily. "Dr. Kaye, you can't do anything for me. Katharine should not have bothered you. I'm aorry. Just go away and leave me alone." There was a kind of desperate dignity about the small figure. "Zoe, dear, your mother and father will be home soon. They won't know what's happened. Do you want to frighten them?" Kutharine asked her gently. , "That's true. That's true," Zoe seemed suddenly tractable. "You give me something to sleep on, doctor, and I'll be better tomorrow, perhaps," John Kaye had his finger on her pulse now; his quiet eyes were exam ining her. "I have something in my kit," he said. "It'B right there on the chair, Katharine." The tall, slender girl in white, with the vfair hair brushed like a golden casque on her head, found the leather case and gave it to him in one quiet movement. John Kaye smiled at her; she was so cool ami sure of herself, so aloof, apparently, from earthly troubles. Katharine recognised the quality of his smile and answered it in kind. John was gone! Whenever he was around you felt safe. "This will do the trick. Two of these now. You'll sleep like a log." "All right," Zoe said docilely. "I want to bathe my face, I think. Back in a minute." Katharine and Dr. Kaye waited as she disappeared into the giltering, til. ed bathroom. They could bear the rushing of water. Then a thud, John Kaye rushed for the door. It was locked. "The balcony!" gasped Katharine. "You can get in through the bathroom window." The doctor hooked his leg over the sill. He was out of sight, Kathuriue waited, her heart thudding painfully. Zoe how awful! What would they find? The key grated in the lock. Dr. Kaye stood in the doorway, Zoe's body in his arms. A strangely limp Zoe, her face stained by a brownish liquid. "White of egg, quickly," grated the doctor. Katharine nevei" knew how they got through the confusion that followed. Bells ringing people hur rying to and fro through the corri dors. Mrs. Parker was there, her face strained and white. And thero was a nurse with dark hair under a flyaway cap. "However did it happen?" wailed Zoe's mother. Katharine said some thing nervous and rather garbled about desperate headache John Knye's prescription. "She mnst got the wrong medicine, that's nil," Katharine' said, trying to make the lie sound Reasonable. "Oh, Katharine, do you think so?" Terror looked out of the older woman's eyes. "Katharine, it wasn't anything else? She WAS happy lately, wasn't she? It wasn't wasn't the other-'" "How could it be?" You hnd to lie to mothers, Katharine reflected, Zoe's mother couldn't have borne to know what her child had gone through that summer night. Life was sometimes too black and pitted with terror. . . All through the night they fought for Zoe's life. Katharine went through the halls softly; once she mee John In the doorway and he smiled at her wearily, gently.
