.HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison’ s New Phase of 'Revelations of a Wife How Dr. Pettit Managed Even Dicky The ambulance will come immedi- ately.” Dicky made the welcome an- nouncement as he came into the room after his trip to the telephone. Dr. Pettit looked at his watch. “They ought to be here in twenty minwes, then,” he said. “Mrs. Ticer, will you make a pot of strong coffec Mrs. Ticer strode toward her kitchen. “Dr. Pettit.” My mother-in-law’s voice was shaken, but still incisive. “I'am going to that hospital, not in the ambulance, of coursé, but Rich- ard will drive Margaret's father and me. Will you see that we are per- mitted to remain within call?” “It is not necessary,” Dr. Pettit began coldly, all the -physician’s pro- fessional dislike of confusion rising to. the surface. “Not necessary to you, 'probably.” Mother Graham commerited curtly, “but vital to us.” “I must insist upon going.” M father’s voice, suave, courteous, but with a note of finality in it, supple- mented my mother-in-law’s dictum. Dr. Pettit, whose respect and ad- miration for my father is unvarying, gave an infinitesfw2. wift of his eye- brows, but promptly capitulated. f course, if you wish it,” said. “Would you prefer my Mr. Graham?” “No, thank you.” .Dicky's reply was curt, almhost to the point of of- fense, and I winced at his rudeness I knew his intense dislike of the phy sician, but hated to have him dis- play it as a time when life and death were in the balance. The Right Note. “After all, it is just as well you don’t” Dr. -Pettit replied imperturb- ably, though .1 fancied T caught a gleam of resentment in his eyes, “for mine is a runabout, and I shall have to ask you to drive me back here from' the hospital. And four peopls in the runabout would be a most uncomfortable arrangement.” I saw Lillian’s hand move toward him with-a ‘slight, impatient gesture, immediately controlled, and I shared the unreasoning but “natural resent- ment I knew she was feeling at the intrusion :of petty details into the black, bitter shadow which enveloped her.

Your child may come out of this at any time, and you will need all the artificial strength you can get. You must not fail her. He had struck the right note. Lil- lian rose, and when Mrs. Ticer came back in with the tray, she was the first to drain a cup of the strong, steaming bever: A Curt Command. “Shall T take two? she quietly, when sha had finished. “No, one will be enough,” Dr. Pettit replied, and when he had fin- ished his coffee he came to me and held out his arms for Junior, who, exhausted with crying, had fallen asleep, once he had reached the shelter of my arms, for which he had been wailing. “Get your coffee quickly,” he said in a low voice. “The ambulance ought to be here very shortly. Please be ready to get right in it, up toward the front. I want you to hold Junior during the journey.” Dicky crossed to us in a stride. “Give me the boy/’ he said, with a frown. “I can hold him and leave you free to attend to Marion.” “I must see to wrapping this arm <o the journey will not jar it,” the physician replied curtly. “Will you kindly get your mother and father- in-law into the car?

But -here was nothing else tor him to dc except to obey fhe physicien's ¢ictum, and in another two minutes he had escorted my father and his mother to my car outside, and I heard the noise of its starting. ‘Now, Mrs. Graham if you wuil help me,” Dr. Pett: said, and with marvelously skilful and tender fingers he so padded the li*ile arm that no ordimary jar could hurt Junior. “Hold him so,” he directed, “and carry him just this way to the am- bulance. Sit here uantil it comes.” He drew up an armchais, eased ne into it, then turned to Mrs. Ticer. “Three blankets and a sheet,” ke directed incisively, and though she seemed to move with her usual de- iberation, it was but a faw seconds before she had produced them. “Mrs. Underwood, help me here.” The command was curt, and I— watching the color rush back to Lil- lian’s bloodless lips—knew that the wise physician had given her some- thing to do just in time to save her from collapse. Between them they made a soft padded couch’ in short order, and then the horn of the am- bulance sounded outside. asked sinzle Spend the Fourth of July Lake Compounce CONCERT 3:00 TO 5:00 P. M.
