SERIAL STORY—

LOVE LAUGHS AT THE DOCTOR

By Elinore Cowan Stone

CAST OF CHABACTERS CONSTANCE MAIDWELL — Heroine; ihe stand-in. DEREK MANTHON — An artist who loved money first. HILDEGARDE THORVALD — Derek p2inted her portrait. DR. ROGERS—He met his most difficult case.

Testerday — Ready to marry Derek _ Mznthon, Constance is stunned when skc receives of surprise note from him .. or the eve of their wedding.

_. ~~ =» CHAPTER TWO OR a long time Constance stood, F staring out over the wintery - paz with its frozen little lake. But she was not looking at the lake. Be ore her eyes danced fragments: of phrases—incomprehensible, unbelievable phrases from Derek’s .note. “Darling,” Derek had begun. “I hope you will understand.” V7ell, she was trying to understand. Presently she stirred and looked at the blue silk --Jouniging pajamas she still wore— for she had barely finished her . morning coffee when the note was

-. delivered.

‘She supposed she must change _ her clothes f she were to go out. “vvon’t you come down to the stucio as soon as possible,“ Derek had written. “I can’t .get away; _ and we must talk thingssover.” _ Talk things over. ... Talk! You coulcn’'t talk away suffering like

S. It was sleeting. She must wear ‘something serviceable. She put on an cid tweed suit and crammed a soft ‘elt hat down over the dusky

*~ waves of her hair.

Wien she had clasped the fastenirzs of her overshoes, she stood for = moment before the mirror in her hathroom door, looking at herself with a kind of compassionate curicsity—wondering how a girl would look to whom a thing like this could happen. 2 8 8

Wi she saw was a slight, almost boyish figure—too thin, she had always thought; but Derek had laughed at that. “you don’t need curves, darling,” « he said. “You have such a beautiful skeleton. : The girl in the mirror had a smoothly oval face with skin soft as petunia petals framed in blue- ~ black hair. Derek had once said that the planes of her face were - fluid, so sensitive was it to the most delicate shades of emotion. . . . Perhaps the most notable things about her were her mouth, which was a: once humorous and tender, and her eyes—sometimes blue, - sometimes stormy gray—with their look of expecting too much of life. As Constance went up the front

abruptly, and a man came out, colliding with her and completely up- - getting her balance. He caught her ‘expertly, set her upright again, and -gaid, “Sorry. - What a clumsy ape Iam!” “It’s all right,” Constance mur- _ mured. smiling because he looked so absurdly big and startled and concerned.

\EREK was on his knees when she entered the studio, whistling as he transferred clothing from a chest of drawers to a trunk. As Constance closed the door and stood for a moment with her back against it, to steady herself for what was to come, he broke off in his whistling, sprang lightly up, and came over to take her into his arms, making of it all one swift, beautiful movement. “You're a darling to come so soon, Connie,” he said almost gaily. “Isn’t this the devil—after all our planning? I know what you must be feeling,” he added swiftly as he bent to help her with her coat. “But can’t you imagine how I feel, too?” . . . And yet, Constance thought, you were whistling. . . . “But come over to the fire,” Derek went on. “There’s so little time to talk, and we must plan.” Constance said with a quietness she had to clench her hands to achieve, “What is there to plan? It’s all settled, isn’t it?” But she did sit down in the armchair he drew up for her before the fireplace. The wood fire needed replenishing; but for -the moment neither of them noticed

that. “Settled?- Why, - Connie, you sound—after all, it’s our future that's at stake. . . . Darling, I counted on you to understand!” “I am trying to understand, Derek. But it’s all rather sudden, isn’t it?” “Listen, darling!” Derek dropped to the stool at her feet, and taking one of her hands, rested his cheek against it, lean and warm and hard. “You're marrying an artist. In my work it’s either a feast or a famine... .I couldn’t ‘stand famine—on your account I mean, of course. What I want for you is pearls and sables.”

“PPUT Derek, I don’t care about that, really,” Constance said. Then looking down at his bright, eager face, she thought, I am behaving badly. After all, it is for me Derek is planning. “You see,” Derek was going on, “they want the portrait done before the first of May. That's why they want us to fly west with them this afternoon.” Us. . . . Why, then—why hadn’t Derek said so at first? In that terribly hurried curt note he had written, “They want me to go with them.” “But,” Constance gasped between Joy and exasperation, “why didn’t you explain that when you wrote? I'm not—" ; She was going to say, “I'm not nearly packed”; but she broke off to plan happily, I can just make it if I get the housemaid to help me. Jet's see—I can wear that pinstriped suit on the plane, and my gray fox fur. . . ". I'm glad I got the red hat and bag. But Derek was going on, carried along by his own feverish preoccu-

“There'll be four of us in the party. You see Miss Thorvald had a rather bad fall from a horse last week. The family physician, who happens to be East on a vacation, is insisting that they take a nurse with them in case she’s not so

After a moment Constance said, “I see. Of course.” “Think of the advertising this will give me, darling,” Derek ran on. “California is rolling in money. And in California a commission from Baron Grapefruit is equal to a royal command.” “It must be,” murmured Constance, “if it’s more important than —does this—this royal personage know that you were planning to start on your honeymoon tomorrow?” . °° 8 ” 8

EREK stirred uneasily. “That’s what I was getting around to,” he said, a strange flatness in his voice. “As a matter of fact, I haven't had a minute to explain the situation. There’s been

no talk of anything but Miss Thorvald’s portrait. But theyre coming around. here this morning for a few minutes. I thought we could —well, bring the matter up indirectly, and I have an idea they may suggest your coming on a little later.” ; He glanced hastily at his watch, and sprang to his feet. “They may be here any minute now. .". . Connie, dear, you wouldn’t mind finishing my trunk like a darling, while I nail up these boxes, would you? I've only got a few hours.” Constance rose and began mechanically to fold shirts and pajamas. There were six suits of silk pajamas, beautifully monogrammed. Constance had given them to Derek for Christmas. Derek liked the feel of silk against his skin. “Listen, Connie,” Derek rushed on, sparing her a whimsical grimace from the box of paints he was sorting, “youll love this; what the Baron wants is something that will be a kind of glorified advertisement of the California fruit belt. . . . Heaps of luscious fruits—white and purple grapes, persimmons, nectarines, oranges—with the sumptuous daughter in the midst as a kind of presiding deity. . . . Bacchanalian, what? . . . I'm hoping he'll listen to reason—although she'd fit into it, at that.” : Constance said with a delicate malice for which she hated herself, “I gather that Miss Thorvald is not too bad to look at. . .. No harelip, then, after all?” : : “Hildegarde Thorvald is—" Derek broke off to finish impatiently, “What in thunder are we talkin

experts in the care of the baby has. discussed the question of traveling with the baby. He says: “In the. first place, don’t.” In the course of my travels around the country I have seen a good many mothers traveling with babies of varying ages and I am inclined to believe that much of ‘the education regarding these matters has not had a sufficient wide or strong efféct. Every transcontinental train, every large ship and even the airplanes yield their quota of babies who are being transported from _pne place to another, somet with but very slight reason for the traveling. If the whole family is moving from one city to another or if the family is departing for a summer or winter vacation, it is, of course, necessary to take the baby along. If, however, the baby is being taken on a trip just to show it to the grandparents or if the baby is be-

When the baby reaches the end of its trip, it is found that the parents have frequently failed to remember the. special things that the baby needs and it is forced to get along with all sorts of makeshifts or substitutes until someone goes around to collect the things that may be required. :
