; FIDO IS ILL AND THE DOCTOR IS CALLED j Chapter 16 One night after had retired 1 heard Mrs. Page calling Walter. I wakened him, saying his mother wanted him; and throwing on my kimono, hurried him to her. "I'm afraid she is ill. If she is, call me," I told him. I was always afraid of intruding; fearful of doing the wrong thing with her "Call a doctor at once!" I heard her eay through the door. "What is it, are you. ill r I asked hurrying to her room. "No, but Fido is! Hurry, Walter! Don't stand there looking at me like that!" she said Impatiently, then to Fido. "Is mother's little darling sick? Poor dear, he'll be better soon." But, Mother, I don't know any vet And it's two o'clock. Can't you wait until morning?" Walter asked. "Call your own doctor! Be quick. Fido is getting worse. I believe that Jennie has given him something to eat that sickened him. If she has she must go!"
Walter turned reluctantly from the
room and heard his voice answering the doctor as I went back to my room
to put on my clothes.
"What did you tell him?" I asked when Walter joined me after speaking
to his mother. 'I told him mother wanted him," he replfed sheepishly. 'She can do her own explaining. He wouldn't have come if I had told h'm it was a dog; and mother would have had me call every doctor in town until we found ; one that would." j We were scarcely decently robed when the bell rang. Walter let the doctor in, and I followed them down the hall, unwilling to miss what he
said when he found he had a fourlegged patient. "Well, Madame, what can I do for you?" he said bri3k:y as Walter murmured an introduction. "It's Fido, doctor! His nose is hot, and he has hard work to breathe. Ohf, do something for him quickly!" as the dog whined. "A dog! I'm not a dog doctor!"
the physician threw a disgusted glance at Walter. "But you can do something for him If you are not." The doctor opened his bag, the look of resentment deepening on his face and gave her a powder to disolve In water. ' "If he has eaten anything that disagrees with him that will help him," he said ungraciouslv. "If it doesn't you call a vet." As he went out I heard . Walter apologizing and the doctor grumbling. Then just before th door closed he laughed heartily and said! 1 "I've been called out of bed for all sorts of things; but this is the first time I ever was called to doctor a puppy." Fido quieted, and we all went back to bed to get what sleep we could.! In
the morning Jennie was put through a
grilling, by Mrs. Page while I stood by
making all sorts of faces at Jennie, begging her not to be angry. " I laughed over the episode. . Fido
was perfectly all right the next day. But it had annoyed Walter, hurt his pride. He took no pains to conceal it from me. Said if the doctor told of being called to attend his mother's dog, we would be a laughing stock. It did get about, and George Harter and others teased Walter unmercifully about it. .
"I'm glad the dog didn't belong to me," I told him when he grouched. "You have too much good sense to make a fool of yourr-elf over a dog!" he replied, and although it was not intended as a compliment, I was glad and happy all day because he had found one point in which I was superior to his very superior mother. I had disliked Mrs. Page, thought her hard, unsym pathetic Then I saw another side nf her character. I occassionaiiy had severe neuralgic headaches. One presented me rising one morning after she had been with us about three weeks. I tried desper
ately to rise, but Walter insisted I stay in bed. After he left for the studio, Mrs. Page came in to see me; and, whether it was because I looked o desperately ill 1 always grew very pale or if she were really sorry for me, she nursed me all day, was gentle, soothing, kind.' She had been subject to headafbhes when .younger herself, and knew just how cne suffered, Just what to do. I was grateful and berated myself for judging her so hastily. She had
been kindness itself to me; and I determined to forget my silly dislike of
her; to remember she had her good
points, as well as ones that annoyed
me.

Heart Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson: When I was 19 years old I became engaged to a young man who enlisted to go to war. When he came back we expected to be married, but he died of pneumonia over there. I tried to be sensible and live my life without him,- but it was an awfully hard thing to do, and I missed him terribly. When other young men Invited me to go places I went and had a good time after a fashion, but I never learned to care for any one else. Lately I have been going with a young man who has fallen deeply in love with me. I like him as a friend, but I do not care for him in any other way. He says he will teach me to care for him if I will marry him. He says I am the only girl h wants and that if I do not marry him his life will be spoiled. I don't know what to do and I would like your advice. IN DOUBT. Don't marry a man you do not love.
