The Original Twist. H‘Eflt.w!lt started with ubrolen “The only 'doctor available at the hotel is a woman, Ralph Todd told ‘his triend. *8he has offered—" ‘"l‘o let it crooked.” Clinton lhr A ll!m young woman in a white dress, with a medical case in he hand came into the room like a cool ing breeze from.the hills. She open. ed the case and pushed back the pa- tient’s sleeve before he realized he ‘was in the hands of the enemy. . "A bad break! How did you man- 1t?” she asked -lightly. “I do not leel as cheertully about it as you do.” Mar answered. “Keep your other hand away, gro I understand bones, whole or ken.” She sat the wrist quickly and skill- fully, and Mar was obliged to confess it was a neat job. “I wonder how soon I shall be per. itted to take my hand out of this sling?” walked with his friend among the The little doctor has made it well nd you might offer it to her,” Todd uggested. “I have no desire to be attached to & drug box.” Theé conversation floated up to the young doctor seated on a rock above them. Being a normal young woman in spite ol’ her education, she was very angr = llhn]l carry a drug box and a saw if I choose to de so,” she sald to herself. “Do yeu think 1 spent years working for my degree only to drop it fqr the first good-looking man in flannels?” The next morning Lr. Moore ban- daged the wrist as usual, then lurll.d her patient over tg the hotel doctor.’ *“You are past the danger.point or I should not dare turn you over to the mercy of a man,” she told Mar lightly, “All you. now.meed is a fresh bandage and—-an occasional mint drop.” Clinton Mar mise=d the light, sooth: ing touch of the small hands. Mean- time, Dr. Moore played golf, climbed and danced with his friend. Mar, handicapped by his accident, was a little resentful. “You and -my doctor are rather friendly,” he told Todd one evening after having been neglected -by both. “She can climb and dance better than any woman here, and has a self- control that others of her sex would do_well to cultivate.” Mar whistled. “Has it gone as far @s that?” “Do you object to my dancing and cfl'nb|ng with Dr. Moore?" “No, only don’t break your heart. Bhe might not bo able to mend it as easily as wrists.” “I shall ask her,” Todd laughed. ° “Do! She will be delighted to know we have been discussing her,” Mar said dryly. The following day they learned that Dr. Moore had left the hotel, Clinton Mar returned to the town where he made his“%home with his - sister and her small son. One day he came from his office to find the lad 41l with diphtheria, and though his mister protested his doing so, he re- mained with her. “It is rash and unnecessary,” she told him. “Dr. Barton sent a young ‘woman fmnl the hospital to care for him, who ik a doctor as well as a . nurse.” » Mar was glad, though, that he had remained for during the night, the child called for him repeatedly. As he followed his sister into the room ke saw his doctor holding the hot Ilittle hands in her cool ones. She put her finger on her lips for silence and without a word they all watched to- gether through the long night hours. “Do not thank me,” Dr. Barton said, when the danger was past. ¥Save it for the young woman up- stairs. No nurse could have dome what she did. I haven’t a man on my staff more skillful than Dr. Moore. Her father was a physician and my friend. I objected to medicine as a vocation for her, but she has made . The first man I find tempting ier to change her name I #m going to etherize.” “You shall nb longer prescribe for me,” Mar said. “I do not fear you,” Doctor Barton replied. Mar held up his wrist. that last Summer.” “As well as I could have done it,” . Barton acknowledged. “Now, Mrs. Bright, keep this brether of yours from annoying my little doctor. He has no claim upon her time sim- ply because she set a wrist for him,” Mrs. Bright went to the ,phone while a cry from his small nephew caused Mar to hurry to the sick room. He found that Dr. Moore had slipped on the polished floor and hurt her foot. He lifted her like a child to an easy chair. “I am ashamed of you,” he said. “She set Bielouss’ Pharmacy E.
