' HB'B MINE"
"CHE didn't bar Mm to call
3 you" Miss Blxby mumbled.
Kitty puahsd ber aside; she
caught up a negligee ana threw It
over ber shoulders as ahe ran to
Gar'i room. To ber agonized senses
It teemed as It there was a crowd
around Gar's bed, the night nurse,
two Internes she pushed them
savagely out ot her way. How
dared they stand so between ber
and Gar?
Miss Blxby cam up behind ber,
put shaking bands os ber to draw
her back.
"There wasn't a minute, Mrs.
rrewl He just went to sleep like
like he Is now."
"Ton mean?'' The words came
hrllly, unbelievingly.
"It was embolus, Mrs. Frew. It
happens, sometimes "
"You'd better come away, Mrs.
rrew."
Kitty put out her hands. "Go
to, all ot you. I'm I'm all right.
David waited for Kltty'a control to break.
th, go, please He'a mint, I tell
youl"
On an afternoon four months later
Ketchum Street had baked under
th August heat. But In late after
noon a little breet sprang up to
bring a saving freshness to the
heavy air. It stirred th curtains
at Dorcat Taber'a open windows.
Kitty lifted th thadea which the
bad drawn against the merciless
aun. It was six o'clock, Dorcas
would be horn soon. Supper was
ready iced tea In the big glass
pitcher, fragrant with mint, a big
feowl ot green talad, thin slices of
chicken.
- Bh set a table close to th win
dows where they could feel th little
(trees. Thru placet David would
eome.
Perhaps he'd bad torn word from
hit publishers. When she beard a
tep on the stairs she ran to open
th door.
"David, have you heard I"
He laughed at her eagerness. He
drew a long breath. "Say, this Is
cool here I"
"But, David, hav yon heardt"
He took a yellow slip ot paper
from his pocket and put It In her
Band.
" 'Little Lady It all that wt ei
Keted. W ar In luck." 8h read
telegram aloud.
"Oh. David, I'm ao gladt But I
knew It wat good."
"Well, that'a that What have
you been doing to-dayT"
He was regarding her with close
anxiety. Her face, thinner now, was
colorless, her eyes, with their sober,
: hurt look, seemed wider, deeper
aet and th long lashes mad little
ahadowa against tbe transparency
ot ber cheeks. Her steady smile
tahhed David's heart.
. "Ob, I'm fine! I've ttayed In to
day and It hasn't been bad hore at
all. I've been very busy." She
nodded toward a sewing basket. '
Kitty had been living In the house
on Ketchum Street since that day In
April, when, bewildered, her heart
a dead thing, she had put ber hand
In David s. "Take me away." The
heavy fragrance ot (lowers had
tilled th empty rooms ot the Frew
house. Jones had been moving
things In the drawing-room. Miss
Blxby had been running up the wide

stairs, a glass In bet band. A door
had abut somewhere.
David bad taken Kitty to Dorcas.
Dorcas nail given her ber own
room, usirvg another room on the
floor (or herself.
"I'm all right!" Kitty bad said,
bravely. "Just tell me something
to do."
And Dorcas had found small tasks
for her. "If you'll get my scrap
book Into shape you'll save my
sanity." She'd dumped an accumu
lation ot clippings Into Kitty's
empty bands.
Kitty had refused David's urging
to go back to Brldgewater.
"Oh, no, David."
She never talked ot Car; what
of longing and sorrow end loneli
ness she suffered she bid behind her
steady smile, ber sober, hurt eyes.
The Frew bouse was closed. Mra.
Frew, after weeks ot prostration,
had gone to California, taking Miss
Blxby with her. Dalton Frew was
living at his club. Carol and Paul
Somerset were occupying the rooms
over the garage on Elm wood Ter
race. David had told Kitty all this
but she had listened Indifferently
as It those people of whom he spoke
were strangers to her.
She never thought of ber brief
resentment against Dorcas, or of
what had been Its cause; 11 she hal
thought ot It she would have put t
with tbe things that did not mattei
All these weeks David bad
watched her with deep concern.
He'd seen her grow thinner, paler
"If I could reach her" he'd
think, torn himself, suffering toi
her.
Now he helped her put the finish
ing touches to th supper. "I saw
Dorcas at the Times once. She said
she might be a little late."
He went t the window and stood
there, his back to her. "I bad a
long talk with Dad, to-day, Kitty.
He's terribly low. He's had a letter
from Mra. Frew. She's not com
ing back here.
"I think It would make blm happy
Kitty, be wanta you to take an
allowance. ' It'a In the bank, any
way. In your name. It's yours, by all
rlgbta. Kitty, there's a Job tor youl"
She did not answer for a moment;
when the spoke It was In a slow
voice.
"I'm torry for him. I'm terribly
sorry, David. I'm not angry at
anyone, why should 1 bo? I'm not
angry at ber, I had Gar In the
end." It wat tbe first time, of her
own accord, ah had spoken of Gar.
He waited for her control to
break. But she wont on steadily;
"What can I do, David!"'
"He hatea It, cooped np at the
club. He'a frightfully worn. I waa
thinking, Kitty I wish the two ol
you would go out to the little house
tor a few weeks. I think It would
set Dad up wonderfully. Mrs.
Dundy't daughter could com over
to help you. I'll run out now and
then Just to sue how you're getting
on. There's another thing 1 saw
Carol to-day. Things are going very
badly r!th .ier and Somerset I
mean money. Would It be too big
a family?" Ha turned toward her
anxiously.
The tears were streaming down
Kitty's cheeks. Behind them her
eyes glowed, dark, deep with feel
ing. She put her face against hit
arm.
"Oh. David, you're so kind!"
He stiffened himself against the
desire to take her In his arms. His
mouth set sternly though In his
eyes lay a great tendorness.
