She had returned from her 2 rested nor refreshed, © was voluble over the shown her by her hos! ess. She seemed not to notice the changes Isobel had made in tt arrangement of furniture. entirely uninterested in ing the household reins; worst of all, she was indifferent to the health and happiness of her en- tire household. “And that means somet! is very wrong indeed,” Isobel said worriedly. “Adelaide is the kind- est soul on earth. Ordinarily her first question ns 2 away from us for so mu day is how we have fared “Do you think she is ill?” Eri demanded. He had come down dressed to go out but, attracted by the conference being carried on in low tones by his fellow housemates, he had joined them. |, } “She looks better than usual to me. She actually had a little color in her face at dinner.” “But she hardly touched her food,” Brenda contributed. “Isobel had her favorite lemon pie on purpose and Adelaide just dabbled her fork in it; didn’t eat a single bite.” Mac spoke. “She is ill. I'm per- fectly sure. I happened to touch her hand just before she went up- stairs and it was hot. Flu, per- haps; there’s a lot of it about.” But the next morning Adelaide |! seemed better though languid and | st unlike herself. She had no mperature as Brenda ascer- tained by the simple process of producing a thermometer and firmly bidding her landlady keep it in her mouth for the necessary length of time. Normal,” Brenda sighed with | relief. “Of course it’s normal. you ri- diculous child.” Adelaide spoke almost peevishly. “I'm not ill. Can’t a person be a little tired from a train trip without every- one wanting to wish an illness on her? The two girls exchanged signifi- cant glances. Adelaide — to talk | like this! Out in the hall Brenda mur- mured: “Has she any close rela- tives? Could she have had bad news of them while she was in Springfield?” “No,” was Isobel’s reply. “Prac« tically her whole lif bound up right in this house.” “Money losses, then?” it might be, of course; but it isn’t like Adelaide to get edgy over a thing like that. No. I still think she’s ill in spite of not hav- ing any temperature.” By noon Adelaide did have a temperature: not a high one but enough to duplicate the mislead- ing flush in her cheeks of y terday. She refused her luncheon, fell into a heavy sleep from which she wakened unrefreshed. “Adelaide, do let us call a doc- tor!” Brenda coaxed. “It may be flu—it may be some little diges- tive disturbance; but certainly something is the matter. Isn’t it wiser to find out what, and cor- rect it?” But she had touched upon the one obsession of Adelaide’s easy- going life. She had no use for doc- tors, and less for hospitals. Her husband, it developed. had died on the operating table. All the stubbornness of her character concentrated itself on this point. She sternly forbade the worried girls to call in a doctor; she re- fused the simple home remedies} Isobel offered her. ‘& Right To Proteetion’ ‘¥ NIGHT she was able to dres herself though the;ominous co¥or still burned in her cheeks, and her eyes were too bright. Mac, informed privately over Miss Ormond’s telephone as to the situation, made short work of her. “Look here, Adelaide, I’m going to call a doctor. No, I don’t want to hear what you think of them— I don't want to hear anything. as a matter of fact. Do you realize that the state of your health isn’t entirely your own concern? You do keep a boardinghouse, after all. The people who live under your roof have a right to protec- tion. It isn’t fair. You may hav something contagious, you know,” he finished firmly. It was the one argum™t which bore weight with her. For the sake of her beloved family she would submit to anything—or at any rate, to the calling of 2 phy- sician. “But promise me one thing,” she said, seizirt Mae feverishly by the wrist.

There's infection, of course. I'll have more tests made and we'll soon locate it.” But Adelaide’s illness proved to be one of those unaccoun cases which baffle med s Try as he would D; nt I there. j te: fever rose dai weakness persist roused only to fi jwhen the word spoken in her hearing Brenda shoved her cardboard with its neatly drawn squa2 |under her bed. and installed |self as nurse.

And presently Brenda received reinforcements.
