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. HILDEGARDE THORVALD — Derek painted her portrait. DR. ROGERS—he met his most difficult case.

Yesterday: One day after weeks spent at the bedside of her patient, George Thorvald, Connie is startled to hear him say, “I can’t go on this way any longer.”

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

HE .trouble,” George Thorvald went on with a faintly embarrassed air, “is that this is too much like taking candy from a baby. It’s been a lot of fun for a while; but I haven't the heart to let you go on with it. . . . You aren't Camilla Wynne, you know.” : For a moment Constance sat speechless before the absurdity of the situation in which she found herself. Then, as the full irony of the |denouement dawned: upon her, she laughed until the tears came. “There—you see!” George Thorvald was cackling weakly. “Camilla couldn’t laugh like that if she tried. Life and Camilla Wynne are serious matters to her.” “You mean you've known it all along?” Constance asked between mirth and chagrin. George Thorvald sobered at once. “Sorry,” he said. “No, just lately —after I got to remembering a few things. . . . And I did hear the nurses talking one day when they thought I was asleep.” “I wonder, Constance said, “if one of the things you remembered was telling me that first night, in unmistakable terms, that you did not love me any more, and that if I'd been really bright I'd have guessed it long ago?” “Did I now?” There was a flicker of sardonic amusement in his sunken eyes. “Do you know, I'd probably think better of that another time. . . . Oh, don’t worry. I'm not going to make love to you at present. I'd hate to cut in on Doc Rogers. . . . Yes, I've found that out, too,” he went on with a Puckish twinkle as Constance’s eyes widened. “A fellow picks up a lot of interesting information when he’s lying here this way. People forget you're not dead yet, and get careless.” “Are you sure,” Constance said, “that you aren’t running a tem- ° perature?” “Not a chance. Right now, I'm the sanest person in this house. All the nonsense is burned out of me « « « «» But I sort of like your brand of insanity. You're going to‘ be around here for a while, aren’t you?” “Not much longer, I imagine. You certainly don’t need me any longer, and I was brought here to—" “Sure—to stand in for Camilla Wynne. . . . Do you want to know why you couldn't make it stick— after my head stoped feeling like a cheese?” t 4 # = = DO, indeed,” him. “The rest of my public seemed to think I was doing a grand good job.” “Well,” George Thorvald told her. “It was your sense of humor that wrecked you. You saw that Camilla Wynne is really—well, just

funny—and the harder she tries,

the funnier she gets. And having a sense of humor, you couldn’t help ‘making her just as funny as she really is. . . . If you want to know, finding out how funny Camilla is was the best thing that ever hap“pened to me. . . . Do her for me . again now, that’s a good girl, and ‘make her funnier than you ever did before. Make her as funny as hell. - I need a good laugh.” ‘So Constance did Camilla Wynne “as she had seen her in some of her

heart-breaking—and funniest

Constance told

—roles, while George cackled with weak mirth.

When Dr. Rogers came quietly into the room, George was begging with tears running down his cheeks, “Now do her in ‘She Gave All'— you know—the way she said, ‘But, darling, there are so many, many things you don’t understand about me. . . . That’s because you don’t care enough. . . . That's why I am going to leave you.’ ” Mark Rogers watched and listened for a few minutes, laughing very much as if he wouldn’t if hc could help it. When Constance went out, he followed her into the corridor. “Well,” he said, “I must say you've hit on the most unconventional cure for nervous shock that I've ever seen. I don’t understand—" “But, darling,” Constance cut in on an impish impulse, “there are s2 many, many things you don’t understand about me.” He broke his step and stopped to look down at her in startled inquiry. Then as she went on in

Thorvald

,Camilla Wynne’s most languished

tones, “That's because you don’t care enough. ... That's why I'm leaving you—.” He flushed, laughed shortly, and fell into step with her again. “Dr. Rogers,” she said suddenly. “I'm not really needed here any longer. I think I ought to go.” He was leaning over, busy with the fastenings of his bang, and he did not look up or speak at once. Then he echoed, “Go?” vaguely, as if the words did not mean anything to him. “Why—if staying is—inconvenient for you, I suppose we ought not to ask you to stay any longer. .. . But Mr. and Miss Thorvald are your hosts, not I.”

(Copyright, 1938. NEA Service, Inc.)

I was not going at all as Con- ~ stance had planned it. There were a number of things she had been planning to say to him—if she ever had an opportunity, and if he would only say the obvious things that would give her the proper cues. . . . But he did not say any of them. He only muttered something about being in a hurry, picked up his bag, and went on with a brief nod. Constance noticed, however, thai he had time to stop in the sala where Hildegrade sat at the piano; and that it was five minutes before he came out, laughing and looking years younger, as he so often did after a few minutes spent in Hilda's serene, unhurried presence. After that evening Mark Rogers came to the house less and less; and when he did come, he never made any occasion to speak to Constance alone. She said to Hilda one day, tentatively, “Does Dr. Rogers ever take time to live—to have any real life of his own—like other people, 1 mean?” Hilda laughed quietly as if at some [secret thought, and said, “I should say that Mark is one of the most (intensely alive people I know. Of course, since you've been here, he’s been rushing around picking up the pieces that flew while he was away—you know—people who got sick but who wouldn’t call a doctor till he got back. . And you have to know Mark pretty well, anyhow, to understand him. He’s— well, he’s absurdly shy about things that mean a lot to him.” He did turn up about lunch time the day Constance had begun to wonder whether she was to see him again before she left. He accepted Hilda Thorvald’s invitation to eat with them with a matter-of-fact, “Fine! I've got my slate fairly well cleaned up today for the first time. I may not have to run out in the middle of the soup.” As Hildegarde, Constance, Derek, and Mark Rogers lingered over their dessert—Ernest Thorvald was off on one of his day-long tours of inspection about the ranch—Hilda said, “Since you seem to be living a life of pampered luxury today, Mark, why not stick around and get acquainted with your mother for a change? She telephoned that she was coming out this afternoon. Vincento’s gone to town; he’s bringing her back.”

2 ” 2 ELL, well,”—he smiled with the special smile he seemed to keep for Hilda—*“so Mother's caught up with me at last! I've hardly seen her since she got back from the East last night. I didn't dare. I knew she'd be bursting with news she just had to get off her chest—and you know there's no stopping Mother if you once let her buttonhole you.” Constance thought enviously, Why can’t he treat me that way? Instead of acting as if I were something that had lit on his nose, and might bite him at any minute. They had hardly got up from the table and gone out into the patio when the car drove up outside, and Mrs. Rogers sailed in upon them, plump and beamting=-and voluble as ever. “My dear Hildegarde,” ' she began, “how terrible about George! I came the first minute—" Then she saw Constance, and her jaw dropped. “Why,” she cried, “this can’t be Miss —only I suppose it’s Mrs. Manthon now, of course isn’t it? ... so the girls at Bartlett's were right! And you two are really married after your interrupted honeymoon?”
