Besides, it's her own affair,” Lucy said, haughtily. “When you are in the public eye, Mrs. Hart, it's a good idea to realize that your affairs are not entirely your own,” Linder asserted with emphasis 'and left her to ponder on that. June slept until 8 o'clock that eve- ning. She awoke slowly, until memory ‘came trooping back. Then she sprang up and sought dressing gown and slip- pers. She must telephone about Bruce. Opening the door to her sitting room, where the telephone was, she was startled to see Phil prone on the divan, reading an evening paper. | “Phil!” she said softly, “what are doing here?” y"?{e dxoi‘)ped the paper and jumped to his feet, almost as startled as she had been. “Angel! That's what you look like with your braids hanging around! Tm your nurse. Come and give an account of yourself. Lucy got too tired and I'm relieving her. Sit down . . .”" “Have you heard about Bruce?” Th! was all that registered in her mind. “Not much. He isn't any worse, that's certain.” “Are you sure? I wonder if I can ! gt Dr. Henderson?” “No. He sent word he would stop in to see Pou, and you were to stay here—have your supper sent up.” Then she remembered her work. “The | dub! My radio program!

He kept up a bantering conversation. Dr. Henderson came at . 10 o'clock. He saw at once that June| | was quite herself and decided to be| frank. i | “Tell me, please, doctor . . ." she ed. “He's holding his own, June—that is gll.

You can see | him then.” | Lucy and Hartley came in for a little | while later, but every one was sleepy but June, and presently they all went away and left her to a night of terror. She couldn’t sleep and it was impos- sible to concentrate on a book. Once she picked up the evening paper Phil| had left and tossed it quickly aside when she saw her own picture, Bruce's, Phil's, the noxious headlines. Several times she was on the point of calling the hospital. She dressed and was ready to go| downstairs by 10 o'clock, when Linder | called and said he would like to see her in his office as soon as possible. He greeted her courteously, but cool- 1y, and he did not smile. “Sit down,” he said. “You look tired. I see by the papers that young Bishop isn't ex- pected to live—Henderson has called a consultation . . .” June could not answer. Her mouth ‘was dry and hoty “I'm’ sorry this has happened, Miss Warick—sorry for everything.
