My guardian had, as you perhaps know, Spent his summer at his country place at Bisbee Hall, New Jersey, from Wwhich he returned rather suddenly ahout a week ago. Our friends thought it merely a strange whim that he should return to the city before the summer was fairly over, but it was not. The day before he returned his gardener fell sick of typhoid. That decided Mr. Bisbee to return to tire oity on the following day. Tmagine his con- sternation to find his valet stricken the very next morning. Of course he motored ta New York immediately; then he wired to me at Newport, and together we opened his apartment at Louis Quinze. Mipat ot was mot to be the end of it. One after another, the servants at Bisbee Hall were taken with thel disease until five of them were down. Then came the last blow—Mr. Bisbee fell a victim in New York. So far I have been spared. But who knows how much longer it will last? I have| been so frightened that I haven't eaten a meal in the apartment since I came back. When I am hungry I simply steal out to a hotel—a differ- ent one every timé. I never drink any water except tat which I have surreptitiously boiled in my own room over a gas_stove. Disinfectants and germicides have been used by the gal- Jon, and still I don’t feel safe. Even the health authorities don’t remove my fears. With my guardian's death T had begun_to feel that possibly it was over. But no. This morning another servant who came up ‘from the hall last week was taken sick, and the doctor proncunced that t. phoid. too. Will T be the next? Ts it just a foolish fear? Why does it pursue us_to New York? Why didn't it stop at Bisbee Hall?" - T don't think I ever saw a living creature more overcome by horror, by an _invisible, deadly fear. That was why it was doubly horrible in a girl so_attractive as Eveline Bis- bee. As I listened I felt how terri- ble it must be to be pursued by such a fear. What must it be to be dog- ged by a disease as relentlessly as the typhold had dogged her? If it had been some great but visible, tan- gible peril. how gladly I could have | faced it merely for the smile of a woman like this. But it was a peril that only knowledge and patience could meet..

The work of immunising our army was £oing on at that time and Several thousands of soldiers in various parts of the country had already been vaccinated, with the best of rev sults, ‘Do many civilians come over to be vaccinated?’ acked Craig of Maj. Carrol, the surgeon in charge. “Not many, for very few have heard of it,” he replied. T suppose you keep a record of them “Only thein _names—we can’t fol- low them upoutside the army. to see how it works. Still, when they come to us as you and_Mr. Jameson have done we are perfectly willing to vaccinate them. The Army Med- ical Corps takes the position that if it is good for the army it is good for civil life, and s long as only a few civilians apply we are perfectly willing to do it for a fee covering the cost." “And would you let me see the list ” “Certainly.

But Craig Ken- nedy did nmot propose to stay there, for he arranged for accommodations in a nearby town, where we were to take our meals also. It was late when we arrived. and we spent a rest- less night, for the inoculation “took. It wasn’t any worse than a light at- tack of the grippe, and in the morn- ing we were both all right again, after the passing of what is called the “negative” phase. 1. for one, felt much safer. The town was very much excited over the epidemic at the hall, and if I had been wondering why Craig wanted me along my wonder was soon sot at rest. He had me scouring the town and country looking up every case or rumor of typhoid for miles around. I made the local weekly paper my headquarters, and the edi- tor was very obliging. He let me read all his mews letters from h local correspondents at every cross roads. . 1 waded through accounts of new calves and colts. new fences and barns, who “Sundayed” with his brother, etc., and soon had a list of all the cases in that part of the country. Jt was not a long one, but it was scattered. After I had traced them out, following Kennedy's instructions, they showed nothing except that they were unrelated to the epidemic at the hall.
