CHAPTER XXXIII “A French girl accompanied her to the ambulance. It seems they share an apartment together. They are models. But we can find nothing of her relatives. They ought to be notified, according to hospital regulations.” “You mean—she may die, dootor?” faltered Lorraine. He looked at her speculatively, this woman of fashion in her eveing gown and cloak, for his telephone call had interrupted them at dinner. "Anything may happen. Meantime, further information about this mysterious ring may be of assistance in our treatment of the patient I understand it was an antique of some sort In a lucid moment she admitted that the scratch on her hand had come from it In her delirium, she spoke your name as the giver of the ring to one ‘Jimmy’—someone to whom she was obviously greatly attached. We telephoned the French girl at the shop this afternoon to get further information on this ‘Jimmy,’ but she informed us he sailed this morning for Europe, which is unfortunate.’’ “You —you did not mention my name to the girl at the shop, did you?” faltered Lorraine. “No, that wasn’t necessary, for just as I was speaking to the French girl, a nurse informed me she had located your address in the telephone directory.” He added in explanation: “In her delirium, the patient spoke your name in full—Mrs. Joel Vandaveer—” How much had Luana told? Lorraine had the grace to blush. “Doctor, you’ll keep this matter as private as possible,” Joel suggested. “I saw a bunch of reporters in the corridor. Do they know anything of this?” “They know the name of the patient It seems she has achieved some celebrity in the town as a model. They’ve sharp noses for news—that’s their job, of course, and understandable. Somehow or other, they’ve found out about a ring that was supposed to have belonged to the Borgias—a grim historical ring with a poison pocket in it! I can only account for this leakage in that one of the nurses may have inadvertently repeated the patient’s babblings to someone or other. No matter what our precautions, often there’s a leak.” Lorraine felt sick. “Shall we go up and see the poor girl, doctor?” Joel suggested. Lorraine recoiled from that She was terrified of sickness in any shape or form, and the thought of having to confront Luana on what might prove to be her death-bed horrified her. “No, no.” “No one can see her,” said the doctor tersely. “I merely sent for you in order to get further information about this peculiar ring, and to find out if you know her relatives, for they should be communicated with at once." “We. know nothing of her except that she was a poor little girl looking for a job, and I got her one,” Lorraine responded quickly. “I haven’t the least notion where she came from originally.” “She may have run away from home. One of those pretty smalltown girls who come to New York in such numbers,” Joel said sympathetically. “Now about the ring?” The doctorgave Lorraine a sharp look. The delirious murmurs of the patient had put a highlight on her character, though poor Luana had not known what she had said about the ring, and Jimmy, and Mrs. Joel Vandaveer —the “good luck” ring, she had called it Which was ironic. Lorraine was about, to speak, when Joel declared: “My wife gave an antique ring from our collection as a farewell gift from us both to a young artist, Jimmy Randolph, on his departure for Europe.” “Architect,” Lorraine corrected him. “Where was this ring purchased, Mr. Vandaveer? And what do you know of its history?” the doctor asked. “It was bought in Florence on the Ponte Vecchio from an antique dealer. He did say something about its having come down through tha centuries from Lucrezia Borgia, but these Italians have such vivid imaginations that I discounted that.” “Apparently you were wrong,” said the doctor. “Now how do you piece the story from then on?” asked the financier. “From the patient’s wanderings, and from what she said in a lucid moment, she attempted to remove the ring from the young man’s finger a few nights back. She

scratched her hand in so doing, and evidently some of the poison from the ring entered the palm, unknown to her, although she took the subsequent precaution to have it disinfected. This may save her life, although she is very sick.” “I see—she was trying on the ring,” remarked Lorraine. “That was it” The doctor looked at her and said nothing. He had his own thoughts. “We shall do everything in our power to help you,” said Joel. “We have several other rings at home of a similar appearance, generally speaking, and I’ll have them sent right over to you by messenger, for examination." The doctor nodded. “That will help our toxicologist and pathologist in making a serum. No time is to be lost,” “I’ll send my chauffeur at once for them. He’s here now.” Joel disappeared, leaving Lorraine alone with the doctor. Under those quieL penetrating eyes she felt uncomfortable. . . , How much did he know? “I understand this young man to whom you gave the ring is on the high seas. He should be communicated with immediately, and warned about its properties. Also about the serious illness of his—friend—” “I’ll see to that. I’ll wireless him, doctor. We’ll stop at the first cable office when the chauffeur gets back with the rings,” Lorraine promised. A nurse appeared in the open doorway, beckoning the doctor. “She’s sinking.” Luana did not die. She went down into the Valley of the Shadows, but early on the fourth morning she passed the crisis, thanks to the unremitting care of doctors and nurses, and a serum the hospital’s pathologist had concocted for her, plus blood transfusions. When dawn streaked the sky in rose and primrose radiance on that Wednesday morning, the nurse at her pillow, looking at the doctors, whispered: “She will live?” The doctors nodded. It had been a tough battle. But youth and an excellent constitution and a strong will had aided them. The worst of the fight was over. Luana fell into a quiet sleep, like a tired child. Yvonne was the first visitor she was permitted to see ... a subdued Yvonne, carrying a great bunch of American Beauty roses as a token from the other girls at the shop. Yvonne had bought them herself, with their money, for she was provident "Mon Dieu, Luana, but you have geev us ze fright! Me, I nearly die when I find you unconscious on ze floor of ze apartment! I call ze am-bu-lance and I come wiz you to ze hos-pee-tal! It was ter-r-eeblel” The nursa put a finger to her lips, to indicate that this trend of conversation was tabu. “Only ten minutes,” she reminded her. She smiled, to show that smiles were what was needed, not unpleasant reminiscence. Then she withdrew. “You has not lost your good looks, Luana, although you are thin as a rail. And you are white as paper, also. Mon Dieu, how near you come to dying I Me, night after night, I have cried.” Which was a distinct exaggeration. “I feel lots better,” Luana said weakly. Yvonne stared about her at the flowers. A ward-maid had come to put the American Beauties in water. But it seemed already there were roses everywhere. How did Luana come to have so many friends? And who was paying for the private room into which she had been moved? “ Handsome” Carew was paying? Half of those flowers were surely his? But Yvonne was wrong in her suspicions and surmises. Mr. Joel Vandaveer was paying all expenses in connection with Luana’s illness. “Considering it was your stupidity that caused it. I can do no less, Lorraine,” he had said to his wife. Lorraine had wirelessed Jimmy Randolph, according to her word given to the doctor, warning him about the dangerous properties of the ring, but entirely omitting mention of Luana and her illness. “Because it would only worry him, and do no good, and he might even come right back on the first boat,” she had explained to her husband when he had opened Jimmy's wireless that came in reply to hers. “RING AT BOTTOM OF WATER,” Jimmy had radioed, truthfully if cryptically.

Camouflage Traced to Indians Portland. Me.—<U.R>~Most people associate the uFt 6t camouflage with the World War. Hut Maine historical records show that the are was practiced by the St. Francis Indians prior to the American Revolution.

When Joel read the message, he knew that Lorra,"e had omitted mention of Luana, 01 the boy surely would have inquired for her? That was obvious. He was glad there was no mention of Lorraine in the newspaper items re the poisoning. The stories were sensational, however. “Beautiful Mannequin Poisoned by Historic Ring of the Borgia.” “Engagement of Luana Waters Brings Her Near Death.” Thus the captions under her picture in the newspapers ... That day Joel insisted: “You’ve got to go round to the hospital and see the girl, Lorraine.” This when a telephone inquiry elicited the fact that Luana could now see one visitor at a time, for a brief ten minutes. But Lorraine proved obstinate. “You know I simply can’t stand seeing anyone that's sick. It knocks me out completely,” she had declared. Thus it was Joel who visited Luana before his wife did. He represented Lorraine as being terribly upset. Everything must be done to placate the poor child in her illness, for it would be far from pleasant to have a suit for damages brought in the courts against Lorraine, as might easily happen if some shrewd friend or shady lawyer got the ear of Luana, before Joel reached her. He emphasized: “Lorraine is awfully fond of you. She looks upon you as her pet protegee. She asked me to tell you that if there’s anything in the world she can do for you, she will.” Luana smiled wanly. She thought to herself: “Wouldn’t he be surprised if I answered: ‘Tell her to leave Jimmy Randolph alone’?” “It wasn’t her fault,” said Luana. “She didn't know the ring was poisoned. I mean, that it had poison hidden in it. Otherwise she’d never have given it to Jimmy. She wouldn't ever have touched it herself.” Luana was generous. “But it simply tears her to pieces to know you suffered. We want to make amends, Miss Waters. Whenever you’re strong enough to talk business, I’m going to write you out a check.” The girl in the bed flushed crimson. “Oh, no. You’ve been wonderful already. The doctor told me you were settling everything. Mr. Vandaveer, you must let me know the exact amount of my bills here, and I promise you, you shall have every cent back, just as soon as I can earn it.” A mist came to his eyes. Hardened he might be in Wall Street, but pride and self-respect and beauty were before him. He was greatly touched. He patted her hand that lay thin and transparent on the white bedcover. “My dear Miss Waters”—he cleared his throat—“l insist on settling every bill, and on taking care of you till you’re fully recovered. Why, the law demands it, don’t you understand?” He had burned his boats now, financially speaking, but confound the consequences! Joel came again next day. He told himself that it was up to him to pave the way for his cowardly wife, but knew that it was because he wanted to see Luana, was sorry for her, and wanted to do what he could. He was a kindly man, a lonely man, and her sweetness and generosity had touched him. Also her beauty. On the third day, Lorraine arrived. Joel had been twice to the hospital and, if she didn’t show up, it would look odd. Now when Lorraine wanted to, she could exert a very favorable impression. With Joel’s warnings in her ear. it behooved her to remove the ill effect that the giving of the ring to Jimmy had undoubtedly made on the mind of this girl. . . . The bodily effect had been disastrous. Had she succumbed to it, there would have been a coroner’s inquest which Lorraine would have had to attend. Thank heavens, there was no chance of that catastrophe! The thing to do was to be friendly with the girl, allay her suspicions about Jimmy Randolph. She understood perfectly when Luana brought the conversation round to Lorraine’s villa in Cannes.. .. She wants to know if I’m going over! HE must have told her! Here’s where I 68. It’s justified. Thus Lorraine’s thoughts. She succeeded well with Luana. They parted on amicable terms. (To Be Continued) CowTliht. itll. Bin, r«auu« Srmiieau. Im.
