LOVE LAUGHS AT THE DOCTOR

By Elinore Cowan Stone

CAST OF CHARACTERS CONSTANCE MAIDWELL — Heroine; the stand-in. DEREK MANTHON. — An artist who loved money first. - HILDEGARD™ THORVALD — Derek painted her porirait. DR. ROGER:~—He met his most difficult case.

- Yesterday—A{ work again, Constance hurries home {he first night, expecting that letter from Derek.

CHAPTER NINE UT there was no letter from Derek—only a forgotten bill from her dentist. When Constance realized that, she sat down on the lower step of the stairway—limp and sick with disappointment. In a moment, however, she was

able to tell herself that she was|Dba

unreasonable. Of course no letter could have come from California yet—even by swiftest airmail.- The Thorvald ranch was probably miles from the posfoffice. . . . It was doubtful if Derek had her letter yet, although she had written it the day he left and sent it by air with a special delivery stamp. Perhaps even at this moment Derek, too, had turned away from an empty box— hurt and angry. She knew how tragically incredulous Detek could be when time and events did not keep pace wit: his own desires. ' She wrote caother long letter to him that nicht. It was a little difficult to frame the paragraphs “without telling him more than she “wanted him tc know. . . . She did, ‘at length, tell him about “Bartlett's ~ —making high comedy of her ex- _ periences of the afternoon before—

making it all sound like a lark to

Denien the tecium of their separaon. * - Bartlett's was quite the swankiest store in the cify. So exclusive was it that an anecdote was gleefully told concerning one reverent customer who, going home after a day’s ghopping, complaining bitterly that people had coughed and sneezed .around .her all day, finished hopefully, “But then, I was in Bartlett's all the time. I don’t suppose I've

+ caught anything very bad.”

& 2 EJ ONSTANCE learned a greatb deal during her first few days at work. . She learned that, although “Papa Anton” was nominally head of the ‘ publicity department, and appeared to lend Continental luster to all public occasions, it was Elsa O’Dare ‘who did most of the work, and made most of the important decisions.

Papa Anton was celebrated for

his spectacular exhibifions of temperament, during which he shrieked and gesticulated with a fine falsetto Gaelic frenzy that delighted many of his subordinates and intimidated few; because, underneath, he was the most harmiess and spineless of men. Constance came to suspect that these theatric outburts were often deliberately staged and encouraged as a smoke screen to cloud the battle fron! when some undercover inter-dedartmental war—of which there were many—was under wa Fisa O’Dare, on the other hand, could be as soit as silk and hard as nails when it came to getting her own way—and without raising her voice or ! an eyebrow; could say things to meddling department heads or shiftless subordi-

- nates that left the victims helpless-

. ly gibbering with rage or speechless with humiliation.

“and she’s cot the right idea”

- Gertrude, the- fall blond, confided to ‘Constance. “In her job, when IR RB she’s gat to do is to damn them right back—in a perfectly ladylike

way, of course.” But Elsa O’Dare new, too. how

: Ho be tactful ¢3d wise—and above

ir. . . . "When she could be,

ting with herself that there would be 5000. ‘But she soon lost count. . And this time the letter was there. “My darling,” Derek wrote, “you can’t imagine what a picturesquely lovely place this is—with an oldworld atmosphere of legend which I cannot put into words.

“The ranch house, itself—El Rancho del Oro—is set in a vast open valley, with mountains just close enough to break the flatness and make a majestic blue and violet back-drop, without crowding in upon you. “The house was originally built, I am told, by .a Spanish grandee, Don Felipe Sedillo, but has been added to extensively. The older rt of the house has walls two feet thick. It is U-shaped, and its three inner walls are constructed about a flowering patio with a pool and fountain, in the Moorish style. The fourth side of the patio is bounded by a high wall with a wrought-iron entrance gate beyond which you see masses of fruit blooms against the blue of the mountains. Running around the inner walls about the patio, on both the first and second stories, are galleries on which brightcaged birds chatter constantly. At each of the two inside corners stone stairways with wrought-iron railings descend from ‘the second gallery to the court. “Besides the older hotise,’ there are two large wings, built in keeping with the rest. The rooms are all spacious, some of them f{inished in soft plaster—very cool and restful—with the original silver wall sconces for candles; and some in rich wood paneling—which Miss Thorvald tells me is not in the best Spanish tradition. And they are furnished throughout, in so far as possble, in the early California style. There are brilliant soft Mexican rugs, exquisite pottery and basket work, and there is some really rare carved furniture. “My studio, with a bedroom and bath adjoining, is in one of the outer wings to get the best light for the inner rooms about the patio are very shadowy. “The spaciousness and shadow of the old house will be very agreeable

in the near future, for already it is

ONSTANCE read that line repeatedly. “I have taken time,” Derek went on, “to look about a little for a small house for us. But except for the shacks of the Mexican leborers, which would be impossible, there are no small houses on the ranch. When you come, we shall either have to live in the nearest town, which would be rather inconvenient for me—or here at the Thorvalds’. As soon as I can, of course, I am going to try to pave the way for that.” Rather inconvenient, Constance repeated to herself a little blankly. Pave the way— There was more. . . . The Thorvald family consisted, besides Ernest Thorvald and his daughter, of a son, a year or so younger than his sister. “A good deal of a spoiled brat,” Derek wrote. “Hildegarde is the Baron’s Sompanion and confidant, but George, I gather, is the apple of his eye. “I shall be glad,” Derek finished, “when I can aétually get down to work. For that will mean that I can be with you much sooner in case there should be any slip-up about your following me here.” That last sentence gave Constance a bad night. So bad that she dreaded the next day at Bartlett’s.” However, the Museum would have been infinitely worse, with its barrage of pitying eyes and carefully phrased inquiries about Derek. Anne Cable, thank heaven! had gone out of town. And at Bartlett’s every one was too much concerned with his own plans and ambitions to have any interest in hers—or so she thought then.

YOUR H EALTH,

By DR. MORRIS FISHBEIN American Medical Journal Editor

F all of the conditions by which people are more or less troubled without at the same time having their lives seriously threatened, backache is perhaps most frequent and most annoying. In fact, many people look on backache as a natural misfortune of old age for which nothing can be done. It frequently attacks the young, however, as well &s the old. It may become so severe as to interfere with work as well as with pleasure.

The quacks and the charlatans,|

recognizing the frequency of the condition and the anxiety of people to be relieved of this trouble, have

developed all sorts of weird treat-|.

ments for. it. These include drugs without merit, manipulations that may be more harmful than good, braces that may be cumbersome and

irritating, and. operations that may |:

be of doubtful utility. : FJ 8 o » EFORE treating backache by any method, it desirable to know the exact cause of the particular backache and to treat it according to the cause that is found. @ertainly no one ‘should tolerate a persistent backache

‘| without - endeavoring to find the

cause and ‘to get relief by some suitable treatment. No . two people are’ built ‘exactly alike. This is one of the causes of backache. The human being its | an animal that ased to walk on four legs and now walks on two. Thdt is another cause of backache. Few neople practice proper control of the body weight in walking and failure to do this may be another cause of backache. Moreover, some: people are born with a type of body structure which

inclines to the development of ‘such |’

disturbances ai an early age. With the development of specialization ' in ‘medical Drctice there | may be somewhat of a NCy to look for the cause of a le in a single fault rather than to
