Tarboro their summer residence. They were the summer despots of the little town, in which old Cyrus Wheel- er had large interests. And the doc- tor knew that there was nothing the matter with Miss Lucy. He was shown into the living room, where a pretty, dark-haired girl lay on the lounge. Though she was such us to cause any ordinary observer to lock twice at her, the mouth drooped petu- lantly, and there was a dissatisfied | look on the features. Her mother, a society woman of the ' common type, welcomed the doctor with cold cordiality. “I can’t imagine what is the matter with Lucy,” she said. “She has been under the care of the best specialists for years. Can't you tell me frankly, doctor?” “Yes, madam,” answered Doctor Rogers sharply—and his tone was not the less sharp in that he had felt him- self unusually interested in the girl, “she needs to occupy her mind and body.” “What do you mean?’ questioned the elder woman, sharply. “She is an imaginary invalid, Mrs. Wheeler,” replied the young man bold- ly. “I should be false to my duty if I did not tell you so. There is nothing at all the matter with her except bore- dom and distaste for mental and phy- sical occupation.” “Why, how—how—dare you!"” stam. mered the girl, sitting bolt upright up- on the lounge. “I seem to have dared successfully, for already you are looking better, Miss Wheeler,” answered Doctor Rog- ers. “You need stimulus.

Frank Rogers was the only friend the Wheelers had in those dark days, for malice breeds malice, and the sen- timent of the town, which had been maliciously set against the young doc- tor, now automatically swung round against the Wheelers in their poverty. “I don’t know how to thank you for your conduct, doctor,” faltered Lucy one day. She was looking very differ- ent now from in the old days. There were no novels and hard work about the house had brought the color into her cheeks. “You know—we may not be able to pay you for a little while,” shé con- tinued. “We don’t know where we are going to get any money. The house has to be sold next week. Mother is going to live with her sister, but I— 1 suppose I shall have to try to find some employment.” Frank felt that he was more than re- paid by the privilege of seeing Lucy every day—two or three times a day, for he was indefatigable in his at- tendance. People in Tarboro began to speak of it in their gossiping way. And then a second catastrophe oc- curred, for one morning Mrs. Wheler called her daughter and, when the girl arrived, tried to speak, could mnot speak, and died. She had been un- able to survive the shock of her hus- band’s death and bankruptcy. A week later Lucy Rogers stood in her traveling dress upon the steps of the house that she was never to enter again. At her feet was a suitcase. “I have waited for you—to say good- by,” she said, when the doctor called. 1 “Yes, I am going away. You have suf- . tered & good deal from us Wheelers, , but we are going out of your memory with my departure, and—won't you forgive me and try to think better of me?” | “But I don’t want you to go,” stam- mered the young man. “You have come to fill my life so much—won't you think about remaining perma- aently in it?” he continued. Then each of them understood thet it had not been really hatred. And, though she went away, she returned two months later as Frank Rogers’ wite. It was a very happy home- coming, in spite of the shadows that lay behind them. (Copyright, 1914, by W. G. Chapman.)

Now you can take your fee and go.” “There will be no fee because there were no services,” replied Frank Rog- ers, bowing himself out of the room. Lucy Wheeler had never been crossed in her life before. What added to her anger was the fact that she be- lieved the doctor had discovered her motive in sending for him. For she had been distinctly impressed by his appearance and it was to while away an idle hour that she had summoned him to attend her for her imaginary complaint. ! A woman scorned has been the same since immemorial time. All the energies of the Wheeler family were devoted to making life in Tarboro im- Possible for him. Cyrus Wheeler, hear ing a garbled story to the effect that Rogers had {insulted his daughter, vowed that he would drive the young man out of town. The busy season was the summer. During the winter the few cases re- ' quiring medical attention were mostly handled by the older practitioners. Frank Rogers hung on that winter, hoping that his relentless enemies would have forgotten their grudge when the next summer came; but it was soon evident that they had re- turned bent upon giving him the coup de grace. Lucy Wheeler cut him dead in the street; her mother tittered when she passed him. By July it Saemad as though the young man tively weak in muscular structure, yet through her gracefulness be in good health and have strong vitality. A great deal depends upon how she starts the day—how she gets out of bed in the morning and how near to the gazelle she approaches nature's demands. Even if a woman of forty is awkward she can overcome much of the defect by following these rules and “don'ts.” Don’t jump out of bed suddenly. It gives the heart too sudden a jolt and in time will make it knock like the engine of a motor car which has been treated the same way. Don’t get out of bed the moment you awaken. Keep quiet for a few moments to let the conscious brain cells return to their normal activity. Next, stretch your arms and hands above your head, twisting wrists and fingers. Move slowly but rather forci- bly all the upper extremites. Then extend, stretch, each lower limb until you hear every joint down to the toes crack and grate. Get out of bed slow- 1y, and again, without Jerking, stretch every movable part of your body— neck, back, abdomen. Now, when you have gone through the very preliminary movements, which are the real reasons for all the wonderful gracefulness seen in active animals, you are ready for your cold bath and your water drinking.—Chi- cago Tribune. i b Unbearable.
