I RlletU Ranler to the prettiest Burac In Stillwell Memorial Hoc pital. but she takes Uttle Interest tn men. Dr. Sam Jobnion. In terne, who has known her lne childhood, proposes to ber rrru larlr but In tain. Then, a rieb and handsome new Interne. Dr. Carleton Ash. comes to the bos pitaL He's attracted to Rlletta. - but she treats blm coolly. An other none. Bee Blake, proceeds to play op to him. When he takes ber oat one evenlnt and kisses ber. sbe pretends to think be has proposed to ber and coaxes his fraternity pin out of him. Later, be asks ber to return It. but she doesn't. Meanwhile, Rl letU has realised that she's very much Interested In him and, when he takes ber out to dinner, he has a bappy evening and be lieves sL'e falllns in love. How oyer. Bee. consumed witb jeal oust, tells ber that Dr. Asb took ber out only to win a bet. then displays bis fraternity pin and claims to be enraged to him. Rl letta to bitterly disillusioned. The next day. she has to to borne to brim her little sister to the hospital. When she returns. Be asks to speak to ber privately. Bee, havlni discovered that ber hostility toward RlletU makes a " bad impression on Dr. Ash, baa decided to make a show of friendliness. CHAPTER XXIX IVHEN the two girls reached "the privacy of the waiting room. Bee seemed embarrassed and hesitant, as though she did not know quite how to put what she had to say. Then, she stammered. I I Just wanted to tell you RlletU that I I'm sorry I've been so so nasty to you several times especially the other night. But. you know when girl Is In love, she Isn't really re sponsible for what she says and does " RlletU's heart gave a little Jump. "You you mean It wasn't true that Dr. Ash took me out for for the reason vou said?" "Well not exactly. It's true, though, that we're engaged. You see. after he gave me his fraternity pin. we had a little spat and I guess he asked you for a date Just to spite me. Anyway when I heard about It. I was so mad and Jealous that I took It out on you and made up that story about his betting he could date you. I'm sorry now I was so mean." "Oh I see." For an Instant, Rlletta had hoped that everything Bee had said the other night had been a He. but she couldn't see that this explanation and apology changed things much Whether Carleton Ash had taken her out on a bet or whether he had done so to spite Bee. didn't make much difference. The fact re mained that he was engaged to Bee. "He and I have made up our quarrel now. and everything's hunky-dory." Bee added. Rlletta held out her hand. "I congratulate you," she said stiffly. "Or perhaps I should congratulate Dr. Ash." "Thank you," Bee cooed. "Tell me how Is your sister? I was so sorry to hear of her Illness. Borne one told me that they're going to give her a blood transfusion. Is that right?" "Yes lust as soon as they find some one with the right type of blood. I hoped mine would be the type, but It Isn't" "I do hope the transfusion will help her. Well, I must be getting back to my patient. . . ." RILETTA was glad that Bee hur ried away then without saylnt anything more about Carleton Ash She wanted to try to forget blm However, this wasn't easy As she went about her work, she someho couldn't keep him out of her thoughts. A little utter, she was in the medicine room, when Dr. Johnson came In. "I've Just been down to see Polly." he told her. "She's a great little kid RlletU suited Jollying me Just the way she used to do back home It's a shame she had to go and get sick." RlletU nodded. "It breaks my heart to see her looking as she does now. You'd scarcely know she was the same child. Oh. 6am. It U anything should should happen to her. I'll never forgive myself for coming away from home and leav ing herl 8he didn't want me to leave begged me to stay." "I know how you feel but, after all. RlletU. It would have been fool ish for you to give up your nurse's training to suy home with Polly." "I might have arranged to have her here with me. where I coulo look after her Poor little kid. she was so lonely and unhappy after all the rest of us left home. She missed Mother so much and hated my stepmother She literally pined away didn't eat as she should and didn't have the proper care. That's what brought this on. Now. II any thing should happen" "There, there nothing's going to happen. 8he's going to be all right." Sam said soothingly. He took RlletU's hand. "Listen, dear I know this Isn't the right place to propose again but. If you'd mar ry me. Polly could come and live with us. In a few months, after I've finished my lntemeshlp, the three of us could have a nice home." RILETTA 8 lips quivered. "Sam, you're a darling. You never give up, do you?" "Not where you're concerned You know that I've loved you since the time I used to ride you to school on my sled I've loved you so long that I can't very well stop now. can I? Say youll- marry me. RlletU Well make a home for Polly where shell be happy If she's happy. It will go a long way toward making her strong and well again. For her sake, say yes." Rlletu looked at him searching ly. "8am. would you really want Polly to live with us?" "Of course! I'm as fond of her as though she were my own Uttle sister. I'd be proud to take care of her." For a moment, RlletU was silent She thought of how wonderful it would be for Polly to have such a home as Sam pictured a home where she would thrive under lov ing care. She thought, too. of Carleton Ash. . . of his engagement to Bee. . Then, she raised her eyes to Sam's and said slowly, "8am. I've told you before that I'm not In love with vou. out I think you're the kindest, finest man I've ever known and maybe the way I feel about you Is a kind of love. If you want a wife who can't offer you any more than that. I I'll marry you." Her sudden acceptance, after to many refusals, took Sam com pletely by surprise. "You you will?" he summered Incredulously. "Yes. Sam."
