But the real culprit, my mother-in- lsw, Miss Sonnot’s patient,, was obso- lutely unabashed by the tall phy siclan’s disapproving look as he.gazed at the piles of clothing chair, and the collection of time patchrwork quilts spread over the foot of the sick woman’s bed. Against the nurse’s protests the elder Mrs. Graham had insisted upon supervising the unpacking of her on olden- § | trunks which her sudden illness had left unopened for davs. As I watched little Miss Sonnot’s face regain the cool professional look which had left it for an instant, I had a shrewd suspicion that Dr. Pettit’'s t was an unexpected one, that if she had known he was coming she would not have yielded to the demands of her imperious patient. “T am surprised that have allowed this, Miss Sonnot. T thought T had impressed upon you the absolute need for rest and quiet in this case. Anything like this can- not help but be injurious.” I flushed miserably at Dr. Pettit’s tone as if I, instead of the nurse, were being cemsured But Miss Sonnot's face did not change either in color or eypression. She had given ane little dismayed start when the phy- sician so unexpectedly entered room. Then, for any emotion her face or flgure registered, have been a statue. A Batfle of Personalities, “I am very sorry,” she said, and her voice was as cool and colorless as if she had been counting a pulse. “But the patient wished so much to see to the unpacking of her trunks that T finally consented after T had found her pulse and temperature to be absolutely normal.” “Most injudicious,” physician. ‘“Now clear these away held the note vou should returned the if vou will kindly at once.” Wis tone of arrogance, which even the hest of physicians some- {imes assume toward the nurses in charge of their cases, But a thoroughly drilled soldier could not have excelled the imper- sonal manmer with which Miss Son- not began to fold the quilts Ivinz on the bed. I sprang forward. to help her “Stop!” My mother-in-law’s voice rang out imperatively. A Ted spot on ecither cheek. her eyes flashing, she raised herself from her pillows and looked deflantlv at the phvsician. “You seem to forget.
