begrudged every moment away from that small bed. In spite of Don’s repeated instructions, she rocked her baby. Holding him against her breast with dreamy, happy eyes v She felt fulfilled in him. As if she had been born nineteen years ago just to be his mother. Anna stayed with her through March. She urged her daughter to take more exercise. To go with Don occassionally. She would stay with the baby. But Sonia did not wish to go. If she left him for even an hour she was sure something had happened. She would rush home, demanding, “Is he all right? Did he cry for me?’’ • She had the feeling that he was so delicate a breath of wind might blow him away. a. perfectly normal child,” Don insisted. “You needn’t worry about him.” M But she did. From the beginning .-die felt an unseen hand was threat-pp-'ng to snatch him from her. Don sa .1 it was “nerves and prescribed a tonic. On their wedding anniversary he was called to Stockton. Sonia was so tired she did not care. The baby had cried the night before, and she wouldn’t let Don get up with him. His rest was so apt to be broken before morning that she insisted on taking care of the baby. Don sent roses as usual, but he had no time to select a gift. “I’m sorry, honey,” he said as he left. "I’ve been so frightfully busy. There’s been a lot of sickness, lately.” She followed him to the door. “All right, old thing!” “I’ll give you a check and you can select something yourself.” She was thinking that his remark labeled him as definitely out of the lover class. . . . But it was true that he had scarcely taken time for his meals. How could he have gone shopping? She put her arms about his neck and kissed him, gratefully. “Thank you, darling. Although I really don’t need it.” “Why not take a trip to town. You’re sure to find something you want.” In the end she decided to take his advice. She had not been in town for months, but it seemed to have lost its flavor. She couldn’t find anything to do. And shopping made her so tired. She came away without buying anything. But stopped at a baby shop to purchase a white, wolly rabbit with pink plush ears. MOTION PICTURES

She thought the baby was beginning to take notice. Jinny had asked her to lunch with her so she returned by way of the office. Stopping to greet Jed Thomas. “How’s the boy, Sonia?” “Pretty well. He was restless last night.” t He looked at her critically. “How do you feel? Pretty thin, aren’t you?” She smiled above the weariness which pulled at her mouth and eyes. “What would you expect? One can’t have everything.” She had no idea how pathetically young she appeared. Jinny had kept her position in the bookkeeping department “temporarily.” She said Stephen preferred that she give it up. “But you know,” she confided as they were eating, “I'm no housekeeper.” "How do you manage,” Sonia asked, smiling. Rather clever of Jinny to understand her own weakness. “Live at a family hotel where we have maid service.” "But, Jinny, you don’t save anything. ...” Jinny’s brown eyes widened. “Certainly not! But if we break even and I am spared the wear and tear of picking up after myself, isn’t it worth it?” Sonia thought at least It would be worth It to Stephen. After all, wasn’t it wise to decide which things meant the most and discard the others? That was what Don had done. He had chosen his profession. Strange how she had come to regard it as a personality. She had felt a conflict between It and her love when they were first married. But she was willing to make her own rights secondary. Since the baby had come it was different. She thought Don’s son should have been first with him. Even his profession had no right to interfere. But it did

... If it came to an Issue between them she wondered which he would choose. The moment came when she was to know. One morning In early April Don was called to the hospital at 5 o’clock. The baby had had a slight temperature the night before. He assured Sonia that it probably wasn’t serious. But she had slept little all night. A premonition hovered over her. She was afraid. And She told Don so before he left. “Honey, don’t worry. Babies run a temperature easily. He seem3 to have a little cold.” “But, Don, he doesn’t act right.” In sjfite of his sympathy he smiled. “How should a baby act?” Tears filled her eyes and she could not answer. He patted her on the shoulder. “You run back to bed, and I'll come home as’ soon as I can. I’ll give him a thorough examination.” “You promise?” “Yes, although I’m not at all sure what time I’ll get through at the hospital. I am expecting to have a Caesarian section this morning.” , He left her feeling somewhat comforted. She fell into a restless sleep, but when she awakened, she found the baby flushed with fever. He turned his head from side to side, crying fretfully. Sonia was frantic. She put him down and rushed to call the hospital. But they insisted it was impossible for her to speak with Dr. Stillwater. “But this is Mrs. Stillwater,” she cried, desperately. “Our baby is very ill. I must get word to him.” Suddenly it occurred to her to ask for Miss Beaumont. If she were in the hospital she would beg her to take the message to Don. Miss Beaumont answered in the crisp tone, Sonia disliked. But she wasygrateful for any familiar voice just flow. "The baby’s temperature is 105,” she sobbed. “Dr. Stillwater must come home. Won’t you tell him, please?" “They say he is preparing for an operation, Mrs. Stillwater, but perhaps I can see him before he begins. Hold the wire.” She waited, trembling wiht anxiety. Surely Don would come if she

sent for him. He would know it must be serious. Miss Beaumont’s voice came back to her. “Dr. Stillwater is just starting his 'operation. He will come as soon as he has finished." “Oh, but what shall I do?” "He asked me to call Dr. Wallace," the cool voice continued. “And tell you not to be frightened. I’ll ask Dr. Wallace to come right out." The receiver dropped from Sonia’s hand. She had asked for bread and been given a stone . . . Had sent for

Children Cry For

CASTORIA

Why Castoria?

Years ago Castor Oil, Paregoric, Drops and Soothing Syrups were the remedies in common use for Infants and Children; Castor Oil so nauseating as to be almost impossible and the others all containing Opium in one form or another, but so disguised as to make them pleasant to the taste, yet really to stupefy the child and give the appearance of relief from pain. It required years of research to find a purely vegetable combination that would take the place of these disagreeable, unpleasant and vicious remedies that from habit had become almost universal. This was the inception of, and the reason for, the introduction of Fletcher’s Castoria, and for over 30 years it has proven its worth, received the praise of Physicians everywhere and become a household word among mothers. A remedy ESPECIALLY prepared for Infants and Children and no mother would think of giving to her baby a remedy that she would use for herself, without consulting a physician. To avoid imitations, always look for the signature of Proven directions on each package. Physicians everywhere recommend it.

He might be a brilliant child specialist to Don, but she had no confidence In him. She returned to the sun room to lift the child In her arms, and sit, like an image of stone, waiting for Robert Wallace . . .
