1.1 Ilian and Madge Pass a Hectlo i Night. I put through the call to the Southampton hospital, and when Katherine had been summoned to the telephone. I quickly transferred the aiouthpleoe and receiver to Lillian. ■' ‘Lo Katherine!” was Lillian's characteristic greeting. "Madge says she thinks you leave your present rase tomorrow. Is that right?

"I’ll Tell Her. "Good old Katherine!” Killian com mented absently. I knew that having received the assurance of the little nurse, who was so dear to both of us. she had dismissed all worry over that ingle of her problem from her mind. She was unusually silent the rest of the evening, replying to Marion's chatter with an abstracted air which told me that her concern over the condition of the waif In the adjoin ing room was not diminishing with the passing minutes. Trudently, I kept silent, at first busying myself with a magazine, and later luring Marlon to the study of a cross word puzzle, leaving Killian to as much freedom as I could manage. I did not see her mysterious protege again. Killian, with an air of finality, decided that Marlon and I should sup in the grill while she ordered supper for two served in our rooms. When we returned, after an absence of an hour and a half, we found all traces of the meal cleared away. Killian was sitting in a low chair, in the old familiar posture— elbows on knees, rtyn cupped in palms—which spelled the study of a baffling problem. "She Wouldn’t eat anything but a cracker," she said to me when Marion had gone to bed, and I was preparing to ‘follow her example. "But I coaxed her to drink a cup of tea and a half glass of hot milk, so, perhaps-” "That's really better than solid food for her,” I said with an air of important dietetic* wisdom, which T was far from feeling. "I suppose she’s still sleeping." "Yes, but she's exceedingly rest less." "Remember, Call Me!" "Remember to call me if you need me,” X admonished. "Of course," she smiled. With a goodnight, I left her, and climbed Into lied beside Marion, with' a little premonitory shiver at the uncom fortable journey which was to be mine in the morning. I was not much fatigued, and I found it impossible to get to sleep. Therefore after an hour or so of counting sheep, I was still wide awake enough to hear a knock upon the outer door of our suite. Imme diately afterward I heard Killian's voice in low colloquy with that of a man. It was impossible to distinguish any of the words, even if X had tried, hut when flic door had closed * * in I heard Ijillian come to the door of the room where 1 lay and heard It.-r say softly: "Madge! Are you awake?" "Never more so," I said, sitting up quickly. "Then please slip on that heavy kimono of mine and come out here. It's warm in this room.” Her voice was carefully modulated, but I caught a note in it which hastened my movements. In another minute I was in the living room, meotisg 1,1111an's grave eyes. "Madge" she said; "I hate to worry you, but you ought to know that a Chinese has been making Inquiries down stairs as to the hour you are leaving in the morning." tlome From Honolulu.

This is 1h* second part of th« story of "Jack and Jill." IT you saved Jill yesterday you can cut out this dress to day and put it on her. There will be another part of the story tomorrow. Pretty Jill ran up to her room anil picked out a little white play dress with blue rings In tt. Over this she put a pink apron, and she donned her little pink bonnet to match her apron. ‘‘Where are you going?" her mother asked. “I'm going over next door to get Jack to go with me after the water," announced Jill, swinging the empty pall merrily over her arm. “The hill Is muddy and I might slip, carrying the water by myself. And, anyway, Jack likes to go with me.” Away she ran across the lawn, calling to her playmate, Jack, as she went. (Copyright. 1928.) Frosted Pie Crust.

Kean, formerly of Denver, son of Mr. and Mrs. M. Kean. Rabbi Frederick Cohn performed the ceremony on Saturday evening. The event Is a surprise to friends of the bride. The young couple are at home at the Morris. I The Oldest Question. Dear Martha Allen: "What Is true love'.’ I met a girl about six months ago amt we started going together. 1 think 1 loved her from the first and she seemed to like me, too, because site let me come to see her as often as I wanted to. Christmas day we became engaged and I was the hap piest man on earth. I cannot under stand this girl because ever since our engagement she lias acted strange. She is inoody, and sometimes when I go to see her she hardly talks, and If she does she says sharp things In re ]lly to my remarks. Twice she has hurt my feelings so deeply that T have decided to tell her I no longer think It best to marry, and then when I go to see her. to talk it over she seems to be sorry and is very nice to me. There is one thing that worries me, and that Is { have noticed she is un kind to her mother. Her mother would do anything in the world for her, and instead of appreciating it she is always saying sharp things to her and scolding her for something. No man canid have loved more than I did at first, but now my mind Is filled with doubts. I doubt her love for me because she is so unkind. I wonder if sh? will make a good wife. I also find myself wondering if I care as much for her as I did at first. What Is your opinion? ON THE FENCE. There Is no definition for true love. I would say, however, that If your fiancee is truly In love It Is with her self. Dove for you and her mother would show itself In greater kindness. In my opinion you are betrothed to a girl who will not make a. good wife. If she Is moody and Irritable now, you may he sure that after marriage her disposition will grow meaner In stead of sweeter. I/oretta: This is not a matter of respectability. Your heart only can tell you which one of these men, If either, you love enough to marry. The (’hums:. Consideration for oth ers is the shortest cut to popularity. Anxious Pals: Isn’t your anxiety mostly to see your name In print? SOCIETY | '-' Two Thursday Luncheons. Mr?.
