S the weather warmed and leaves were pulled Michael realized that others were amused by the guardian- ship he has assumed, and this was another matter. He was seen with Carroll at the zoo and the aquarium and driving in the patk. When his contemporaries twitted him he advised I NN He hoped, males of his acquaintance would never hear of his reading aloud to Carroll “Alice in Wonderland.” them to go to a place that had a repu- tation of being hotter than New York at its hottest, but this relief was not open to him with the older men who remembered Michael’s father. Old Col. ‘Wierly, for instance, rose from the torpor induced by his favorite club chair to bark out, ear you're run- ning a day nursery, Wister,” to which Michael could respond only by turning a sullen purple and by thinking a most sincere, “Damn!” He stalked to the club library after Col. Wierly had said this. More and | more he was seeking spaces where silence was compulsory. Here he thought he looked at a copy of the London Illustrated News, but in reality he made a mental image of old Col. Wierly telling his cronies what he had said. “Well, I can't help what they think,” Michael mused; “I must go on with it. No one else would look after her!” He hoped, scanning pages with absent, unhappy eyes, that the hard-jesting males of his acquaintance would never hear of his reading aloud to Carroll, “Alice in Wonderland,” “The Water Babies” and “Through the Lookin- glass.” It seemed to him that if that came out there would be nothing for him to do but to go somewhere else and make a new start. He sighed deeply, then he frowned and Col. Wierly’s rubicund image faded. He realized he had forgotten to get the book on diet that he had planned to get, mark and present to Jersey. Jersey's ideas of being kind was to stuff Car- roll with cream puffs and all she would say when Michael remonstrated was, “Aw, Mike, have a heart; the kid's got a yen for ’em.” Life was very difficult, Michael found. Now he stirred, rose, slapped the magazine to the table and left the club smiling saturninely. His slap of the magazine on the table had badly dis- turbed the slumbers of old Mr. Horace George, who the day before had asked Michael whether he wore a cap when on_duty. Outside Michael met a contemporary who_said, “Hello, Boy Scout, getting credit for your good deeds?” After his answer Michael realized that his vocahulary was being enlarged and that the subconscious would al- ways supply the right word if you gave it plenty of rope. ‘Then he hailed a taxicab, having realized that morning as he started out that he didn't walk enough. He gave a Fifth avenue book store as his land- ing placfi and, getting into the cab set- tled back. ‘The clerk at the book store had a voice that suggested formative years spent with the very deaf. Michael's voice at this moment suggested that he had served an apprenticeship in & fu- neral parlor. “I want & book about diet,” he whis- pered, after a sharp look around. “Diet for a child, you see; a child of 10— that kind of child.” “A book on diet in childhood,” the clerk broadcast with piercing clarity. “Help!” thought Michael. He left with the book under his arm. He didn’t want even the clerks to know who had bought it. In the street he mopped his brow. It seemed to him that ever since he had taken Carroll under his wing he had been subject to copious, truck- horse sweats. ‘Theresa opened the door to him and fate had arranged a propitious recep- tion for the book on diet. Carroll had been ill all the previous night from eating too many cream puffs. Now she was curled up, imp and white, on the chaise lounge, but when she saw Michael she rose with a little squeak grown from roots of delight. , Mike!” she said ecstatically, “Oh, Mike!"” He moved to stand by her. “Sick?” he asked grimly, “Hum?" “Mike, I was sick all the night; I was sick, awful sick—wasn’t I Tressa?” get in a doctor the way she went on. I never seen no one no sicker, and Jer- sey, she's one to get pretty sick on a morning after.” “Mother doesn't get tanked often,” said Carroll, obviously anxious that should not misunderstand. “She only gets tanked when it' crawls up on her and she doesn't know it's going to hit her.” Michael settled by Carroll and he put an arm around her. close to relax against him and with her from calendars, | h: i [\ scanning pages with absent, | unhappy eyes, that the hard-jesting | face pressed to his shoulder she deeply and happily, and smiled. “Do you know what we're- going to do?” asked Michael. “No, Mike,” she answered. “What are we ‘!'ylng to ?X‘!’i Mui,ke?" “We're go sign a cream-puff a1 rroll shu an 1 “She dont. want to. think of em none,” said Theresa. ‘“Believe me, Mr. Wister, that kid was sick!” After which she took herself back to the kitchen and Carroll and Michael were alone. She sat hands in his. He thought she had fever and he frowned. He lald a hand on her forehead to grow certain that she had fever, and no hen mother of ducklings could have been more urbed and anxious than was Michael. She smiled beatifically up at him as he made the examination, and as al- wsfin he found himself answering her smile. Then he became keenly aware of the cloying scent that had, since his en- trance, bothered him without his real- izing ‘it—an aggressively sweet lilac scent—and it meant that Big Bill Kill- roy had passed that way. ing the question that Michael could not ave asked. “Mother went out with Mr. Killroy,” she sald. “Mother went out with Mr. Killroy in a big, red motor car. She sald Tressa would look after me and she kissed me and she went out with Mr. Killroy in a big, red motor car, so T'm glad you came.” | “What shall we do?” asked Michael, after the passing of a slight frown. “*Through the looking-glass,’ " said Carroll. “T'll get Maggie; she wants to hear it, too.” Maggie was the doll who had lost a leg and to Carroll’s sight she was worthy of every solicitude and tenderness. “I'll get Maggie; where is she?” asked Michael, rising. 'l tell her you sent me for he “Yes, please do,” said Carroll. “She’s on the bed: she was sick, too. “Not reall; how sad!” said Mi- chael, in exactly the proper tone. “My God, that kid was sick!” said Carroll. “Dear,” said Michael, pausing and turning, “you know we don't say ‘My ‘Not when you are as sick as we ‘;;'m"' Carzoll questioned, shaking her ead. 02" I"“Noi" “said Michael, firmly. “It's | mercy, or my goodness, I was sick!” “It doesn't seem quite the same,” sald Carroll. Michael returned bearing a book and | & doll, which love had made ready for a dry cleaner and for whom Carroll had made & new, pink silk dress. After Mi chael had approved the new dress, Ca: roll crawled weakly to his knees and Maggie sat on her knees. “Now,” said Carroll, and Michael be- gan to read: “‘That’s three iaults, Kitty, and you've not been punished for any of them yet. You know I'm saving up all your punishments for Wednesday week—suppose they had saved up all my punishment,’ she went on, talking more to herself than the kitten, ‘what would they do at the end of a year? I should be sent to prison, I suppose, when the day came. Or—let me see— suppose each punishment was to be going without a dinner; then, when the miserable day came, I should have to go without 50 dinners at once! Well, I shouldn’ d much!”’ “No,” said Carroll, “no!” she added, eagerly, “and did she do that?” “We'll see,” said Michael. “You see, I really dont know.” Again he laid a hand on her fore- head; she wasn't quite so hot, he thought. “Feeling better?” he questioned in the gentle voice that Carroll alone brought from him. She nodded against his shoulder. “I love you so,” she said, softly. He tightened his arm and for a moment, bending her head, he pressed his cheek to her hair.
