Thoy (lowed llin Hill mid t ho limipniiuk wifely nwny, nnd crept upntulin into tlio chilly bodrooin. Mnridl hnd hardly glapt. The two Kiiln 111 y In thalr raid bed, wrapped tlio lionvy quill tightly round them (thnrn win no honl upuliilriO, nnd tulked hurriedly In low wlilKpcru, Mill only fow min ute rttumad uofora tlmy licnrd Ostorhulm coma driving lit a (nrl ou into up Uio rond nnd Into tho fiirmyiird, Mnrgll looked out thn , window, nnd miw him unhitching Uie nweutlug homes, "Oluf. Oluf," ho kept culling In mulTIrd voice. A young hid rnu out of llio Iioiko bentlng III mlt Irnrd luiudii togctlirr, nnd helped him get thn homcii Into the burn. Then both of them, blowing clouibi Jot iiti'iiin nut from under tliolr fur hood, got to work lifting nevernl lnrgo moliil burrclii out of the nlelgh nnd rolling them one by one down Into the ccllnr. The girls crept buck Into bed. Mnrglt wnt iihlverlng with utmiigo priwntlinent. Knren'n now. Hint Knrl might linvo to Irnvo TrollncM, her fnlher'f In xplleablo movemenlii down In the rourt, nnd her own idceplmu hour combined to mnko her moro rlghteneil thnn lio hnd ever been. A fin Ions pounding on the door tvoko them. Mnrglt nt up quickly, blinking In thn bright morning light. Thn wind kicking up out' doori hnd blown n lino nlfting of nnow In nt the open window. "Jn," he culled, iihlverlng, nnd pulled Uienulllup. Tlio hounekeeper, bltf.womnn In grny nklrt, npron nnd blouno, cntne In with n frown on her round, good-nnturcd fnce. "Up wllh you." nht culled. "Up with you,' nnd wnddlcd ncrnm the room. "In my dny glrln didn't lie In bed until hnlf punt nine In the morning." DKnren nt up guiltily, pulling the nheets nrnund her nhuuldem ngnlnnt the cold. "In it r cully go lule, Fru Krlknen?" nho cried. A few minute Inter when they ntnrtnd down Inlo the kitchen, they licnrd Fru Krlknen'ii volco from m fnr nwny nn llio upilulm lund lng. Iirgo nnd henrty, It won cry ing, "Ixiok Hhnrp In the -oven. 1 iimell Fru nnledng'n bluculK. You'll never get fnt on your nrmn If you tund itlll." And then nho mimt hnve henrd lliem, for (he coiled, "lln, hn, hero they come, tho Inry ulerpem. GoMlpIng nil night long, nd enn't get up In the morning." 1,4 ND down the tnlr enmo Knren' JV nnd Murgll with their fnce wnhrd, but looking very hceplh, lioth In brown dressen nnd henvy ntnrklngii coming to their knees, nnd ench one with three woolen petllcoutn billowing bencnlh her nklrt, "Ciet beck up nnd put on your hoeii," Fru F.nknen cried nt them. D"Oh, plcnne don't make in," nld Knren, trying very hnrd to keep her even open. And Mnrglt, peering over her frlend'a shoulder, nld, "la there nny brcnkfiut left?" Fru Eiiknon leaned bnck nnd laughed, hnndn on her brond hips. "Oh, whnl silly geene," he cried. "Of courno there'll brenkfnt." "Whoro la everybody?" Mnrglt nuked. "Whoever Isn't hero Is in the bnrn," cnlled Fru Erlksen,' "nnd who Isn't in the bnrn, nnd thnl's your fnlher, hns gono down to ace the doctor." "To my fnlher?" Knren nuked. "Of course" And the girls looked nt ench other In sonio aurprlse, for since Johnnn hnd coma home, no one went to tho doctor's housa it ht could nvnld It. Fnr in the bnckground they kept on hearing tho clutter of plntos in the aink nnd Fru Erlkaen'a boom ing voice, nnd ths little mold's answers. They awung their brown stockinged legs under tho tnblo, Jmd nto nnd. drnnk, nnd felt the "drowalncsn alcnl bnck over Uicm, A sharp rnp nt the door made them alt bolt upright. And then the door blew open, nnd brenth loas 10-yenr-old boy tumbled In. "Tlio Hot Doktor," ho panted, "the Jcrr Doklor . . ." Fru Erlksen alnmmcd the door nnd took him by on enr. "Ow," ho walled, nnd pointed nl the girl. "The Horr Doktor says he wants to ace them." "Us?" said Knren, nnd felt cold chill run over her. "Us? What for?" Frnnzl twisted free. "How should I know?" The girls looked nt each' other, Karen Willi a startled hand nt her mouth, nnd tho snmo thought was In both their minds. All tho whllo Uioy had been sitting so calmly nnd eating breakfast. . . They turned nnd ran upstairs In n swift pntterlng of stockinged feet to get their boots. "My fnlher Is down in tho vlllogo too," Mnrglt whls- Opcrcd. "Karen, do you think , . ." "PHE two pnlo and sllont glris walked quickly down toward tho village. At tho doctor's whlto gnlo, hnlf covered by anow, thoy stopped and whispered a few words to each other before thoy turned in., Thrco men followed lliem almost to tho door. Onco - Karen (dark yellow hnlr and a scored face under hor hood) turned to look at them; then both of them ran into tho houso. In tho empty hallway they took oft their coals, hoods nnd boots, Karon kept wotting her lips with her tonguo, Then, sldo by side, on thickly stockinged feet and in Identical brown dresses with flar ing skirls, ihoy opened tho door nnd walked into tho doctor's office. The first man they saw was Mor ten Mortonson on tho window soul, crouched llko a monkoy with his thin arms wrapped about his itnocs, Marglt's father was sitting tvilh his back to tho door, rough, CJ ed hands on tho arms of his chnlr. Dr. Slensgard, looking punier about thn fnco than usual, was . nia imvie, INC. aentcd, hnlf Iti shadow, nt his dek. Tho blinds to the street window were down, and tho room waa very allll. Suddenly the doctor said in strained volco, "Karon." The tlghtnesa grew. Both glrla breathed a II It In faster. "Yea?" "Whoro nro your -akls?" Karon waa atundlng n atrnlght ns ahq woa ublc, luirdly breathing. Hho thought nl nny moment aha would fulfil. Of courso they knew nomnthlng, hut how much? And what waa Morlcnaon doing there, looking ao antlsllcd nnd solemn? Kho tried to look nt Mnrglt nut of tho corner of her e,o, nnd felt her hand squeezed harder nnd hurdor. Tho doctor went slowly bnck In his desk. "Anawor my question." "My skis nro ... in tho court ynrd nt the fnrm." Tho doctor smnshed his flst down on tho desk, "You'ro lying. Horr Morlonsen snw your skis In front of Uio cottage up at the anetor." Tho girl turned toward Mnrglt. Then very slowly alio went to n chnlr nnd slid down Into It na If alio no longer hnd the strength to stand. Her brown skirt billowed out In front of her, nnd uncon aclously alio pressed It down to cover her knees. "Karen," her father mild plead ingly. Huddenly alio felt small nnd weak, The faces, questioning and dark, bent townrd her, swam nnd grew Inrger and larger. The room began turning ao that ahe had to clutrh-at tho arm of tho chair to atendy herself. Who wna herself, nnd no one else. "Oh, Karl, Knrl," alio thought. It surprised her to bear how clear her own voice sounded. "I won't deny It. It's true, nnd I am going to hnvo n child."
