! SERIAL STORY—

LOVE LAUGHS AT THE DOCTOR

By Elinore Cowan Stone

CAST OF CHARACTERS CONSTANCE MAIDWELL. — heroine; the stand-in. : DEREK MANTHON -— an ariist who loved money first. HILDEGARDE THORVALD — Derek painted her portrait. DR. ROGERS—he met his most difficult case.

Yesterday: Hilda comes to thank Connipg and Connie, watching Hilda's steady eyes, wonders if she is trying to make up her mind about something.

CHAPTER NINETEEN

i HE whole thing is rather like something out of a novel,

isn’t it?” Miss Thorvald went on. «All of us—you, Mr. Manthon, Father and I, being here under such unusual circumstances after meeting so casually for those few minutes in the studio. ... And Mark’s having been on vacation in the one

place where he could possibly have

found you.” “Yes, isn’t it?” Constance agreed

vaguely. | " “Only the day George was hurt, Miss Thorvald went on, “Derek and I were talking about you. He said, I remember, that you were quite the loveliest model he had ever painted, and that he would so much like to paint you some time in an old Spanish setting like this. . . . And now—well, here you are!” Now just what, Constance thought, are you trying to find out? She hated herself for the ungracious thought as her eyes crossed the candid, level friendliness of the other girl’s glance. Ernest Thorvald was waiting to speak to Constance when she went downstairs a little later. «Miss Maidwell,” he said, “nothing we can say or do for you could discharge our obligation to you. But I want you to understand that i will not lose anything through yo kindness.” “Thank you,” Constance said. “We needn’t talk about that.” 3 : 3 tJ 2 f ST thought drearily. Suppose I have already lost the only thing in the world I really wanted? “Dr. Rogers thinks that my son has a genuine chance of recovery,” Ernest Thorvald went on. “Two ‘days ago it did not seem that he had one chance in* 10 thousand. And his welfare seems likely to be .in your hands for. some time to come.” When Constance seemed surprised, he continued, “It may seem strange, after the boy’s—er—amazing change of heart, that he should still ask to see Miss Wynne. But the doctor says that isn’t surprising. He thinks the effect of the shock he has had may last some time. I need not tell you that we shall be very glad to dispense with Miss Wynne’s presence in the house.” Constance thought with the flippancy into which she often made her escape these days, Well, well! This stand-in business seems to be developing into a growing concern. “Of course we want to do all we can to make your stay as little of a burden as possible. Do you ride?” “A little. I grew up on a Maryland farm.” “Fine. I'll have a pony sent up for you to look over. Dr. Rogers thinks we ought to keep our daily routine as sane and wholesome as Jossible.” He would, Constance thought with an irrepressible smile.

“ND indeed, life in the pleasant, rambling house, with its leisurely old-world charm did seem to move on as smoothly and graciously as if there had been no grim struggle with death going on within its walls. | To Constance, the life was unbelevably picturesque. It was hard to believe that it was part of the same world as that chintz-hung

room that looked out over the frozen park. Constance wondered sometimes, when they all met at the leisurely

Mexican servants, that they could possibly find anything to talk about except that tossing figure in the darkened room upstairs. Yet they did talk—quietly, and often amusingly. And if Derek and Constance exchanged only the barest civilities, no one seemed to notice—unless it was Mark Rogers, who occasionally ate a meal with the family. Constance had a feeling that little that happened escaped his quietly amused eyes. Throughout the first few days George Thorvald had continued to waken, crying out terrified for Camilla Wynne—moaning that he had killed her. But each time, a few words from Constance—sometimes her bare presence—served to quiet him. After that first day the identification of her with the actress seemed so firmly fixed in the boy’s fevered mind that there was no longer any necessity for arti{ficial disguise. 8 8 =

ONSTANCE slipped in and out of the sick room at the call of both the nurses; but it was Miss Wilcox with whom she chatted occasionally. “I understand the Wynne woman has been definitely scared off,” she said to Constance one day. “I shouldn’t have been surprised if she’d made trouble when she found out George had given her the gate. But since Mr. Thorvald had a talk with her she seems to have decided that the kind of advertising she might stir up wouldn't ‘be so good for little Camilla. . . . Part of her publicity value has been that she was something pretty special in the way of sirens, It wouldn't help a

enough to fool the current boyfriend.” Dr. Rogers Constance saw only occasionally. That he was in and out, however, she knew—driving the 20 miles from Los Angeles, where his main practice was, every day, and occasionally in the middle of the night. : One night, toward morning, he knocked at her door; and when she roused sufficiently to throw on a negligeé and open it, asked her to come to the sick boy’s room. “Just as you are, please,” he said curtly, casting a perfunctory .look over her touseled hair and sleepflushed cheeks. “He won’t know whether you've got on a cocktail gown or a bathing suit.” ” 2 8 ONSTANCE was cross and a litle confused from her sudden awakening, and unreasonably piqued by his abrupt, impersonal manner. : “Of course, Doctor,” some perverse imp prompted her to quote. “‘I understand. You want me to tell him & bedtime story. . . . But is it quite fair? . Sometime he is bound to awaken... . . And that hurts. I know. ... That is one of the things you have taught me.’” It was the impersonation of Camilla Wynne as the nurse in “A Doctor’s ' Best Friend” that had roused him to shouts of mirth that night at Daimler’s. She had thought he would be amused now. But he only said with a weary shrug: “Don’t waste time practicing on me. Youre letter-perfect already.” Feeling snubbed and hurt out of all proportion, she followed him to George Thorvald’s room. But she could never entirely dislike him when she saw him with the sick boy; he was so skillful, so sure of himself—so genuinely tender. When the magic of her mimicry had done its work, and she was

her own room, she hesitated. She was wide-awake now. Perhaps she had better go to the library and pick up something to read in case sleep failed to return to her at once. o ” ”

UST inside the library door, she halted abruptly, startled to find that she was not alone. Huddled in the corner of the couch, Mark Rogers was fast asleep —his cheek resting on one arm, his feet still on the floor, as if he had sat down, intending only to rest there for a moment, and then had dropped off in utter exhaustion. Constance was shocked when she saw how utterly weary he looked— shocked, and unaccountably touched, as women often are by the helplessness of men in sleep. Perhaps it was because in his weariness he seemed younger and a little wistful—as if, Constance thought, he might have dropped off wondering whether there might not be more to life sometimes than telling people what to do, and being caustic about it when they didn’t do it. A light but chill wind had sifted down from the mountains that evening. As Constance watched, the sleeping man stirred uncomfortably, and shivered a little. Taking a Mexican blanket from the end of the couch, she folded it about him. Without opening his eyes, he snuggled under the comfortable warmth, shifted to a more comfortable position, and said with a drowsy half smile, “Thanks, Hila, oy iie a brick.” nstance smiled a little bl So Hilda Thorvald had de Neary, this service for him, too, often enough so that he took it for granted that this was she. . . . The thought caused a faint flutter of annoyance which Constance, unreasonably enough, could not forget.

O the most difficult of the senses to evaluate is the sense of hearing. We depend upon it for our safety in relationship to the hearing of warning signals, the bell of the telephone, steam from a boiling pot or many simple household affairs. Most particularly, however, we depend upon our hearing for the understanding of speech. Education is slow and difficult when people are unable to hear. The worker is handicapped in his daily affairs is he is unable to hear. Socially hardness of hearing may be a serious handicap and reflect itself on the character of the individual concerned. . } : For all of these reasons both edu-

affecting the hearing are concerning themselves more and more with the ability of the person who is hard of hearing to hear ordinary speech. It is true that they also test the hearing of the person in response to various ranges of sound, using a series of tuning forks to define the

It is also possible to repeat the same record again and again so as to evaluate the capacity of the listener at various times. This is exceedingly important because many words are not familiar to some listeners. > The accent and the inflection of

The cevelopment of new technical devices, such as the automatic phonograph with amplified sound, is doing much to show to those who are concerned with hardness of hearing exactly the nature of the difficulties that are to be overcome. Accurate measurements are the very basis of scientific study and evaluation. In this way the technical experts have n of great aid to those who ni help in overcoming disabilities.
