In reality It was but a few sec onds, but it seemed an eternity of waiting before there faded from Ed win Braithwaite’s face the rapt, ab sorbed look with which he followed Lillian’s small daughter from the room. I was careful not to glance toward my sister-in-law, but I saw in Lillian's sudden attention to the flowers on the table her perception of the situation, and I think she was as relieved as I when the tele phone rang. Ur. Bralthwaite gave a shake of his broad shoulders, exactly, I told myself, as a big mastiff might prepare for battle and looked at me. "The Uurkees, do you think?" he asked. "More probably Mother Graham." I answered, taking down the re ceiver. "She knows you were to ar rive this evening.” My mother-in-law’s excited voice fulfilled my prophecy. “Margaret, are tljey there? Yes? Let me speak to Harriet." "Right away,” I promised. "Is Junior all right?” "If there were anything the mat ter with Richard Second, do you think I wouldn’t have telephoned you before this?" she retorted and realizing the truth of her words. I murmured a soothing "Of course. I know you would." and beckoned my sister-in-law to the telephone. There followed the usual colloquy of relatives who have not talked to each other for a long time, and then I saw a curious look on Harriet Braithwaite's face as she turned to ward her husband. Tile Invitation. “Mother wants ine to go out there in the morning,’' she Baid. "If you are going to the Uurkees she paused tentatively, but I saw a strained tense look in the eyes which watched her husband. It was that of a timorous skater put ting out a foot to try ice which he fears, and I realized that she was testing her husband's wish and need for her in the same fashion. The big surgeon looked up at her blanklv and as I *aw the most help less look with which he regarded her. my pulses leaped with joy for his wife. The maternal Instinct which is In every woman would have thrilled at the revefatlon of hls need for sympathetic comradship which only a wife can give. Surely It was her answer for the doubts which had been besetting her. ' Why! of course, dear, go if you wish " he said, but a child could liavo seen that he Infinitely dreaded the prospect of her absence. Long ago Harriet Bralthwalte told me that be never left the house before or after one of her husband's critical operations, and I knew that she had had no slightest intention of leaving him when she spoke of it. She smiled at him tenderly, the cameo-like austerity of her face softened into loveliness. “No, I’ll wait." she said In a low tone, then again put her lips to the mouth piece of the telephone. "I'm sorry, mother," she said with a finality that reminded me of my mother-in-law’s own firmness, **but I cannot come out until after Mrs. IHirkee's operation, unless, of course, HD win thinks it wise to delay oper iting. You may be very sure I will come to you the first minute I can. Take ( are of yourself. Ooodby.” Harriet Takes No Chances. Hhe hung up the receiver abruptly, and crossed to her seat. I was sure that I had heard my mother-in-law's voice in a disjointed murmur of "Let me speak to Kdwln,” but her daugh ter had taken no chances of a ma ternal appeal to the surgeon's chlv :■ 1 ric consideration for his mother-in | law. There came to me anew the knowledge which former associations I with my sister-in-law had given me. ihat Harriet Braithwalte. more than most women, made a god of her bril liant, distinguished husband, and that she ruthlessly trod upon everything which hindered her care of him. Was It wise, I pondered, to wrap any human being, even so outstand ing a genius as the brilliant surgeon, in such protecting cotton wool? Would It have been better for him—and for her—as I saw the look of relief un consciously flashed Into Kdwln Bralth walte's eyes, and the happiness which glowed In hls wife's face, I consigned my conjecture to the rubbish heap At least Harriet Bralthwalte had the know ledge that she had been the chlel contributing factor to her husband’s uccess.
