Hut she regarded tho bottle suspiclouHly and acted as though It would hurt her were she to' use It. To nllay her fears tipon this score Mrs. Jackson appljpd some of tho drug' to her own finger and showed her Hint It would not burn, and that Bho had better allow her to put somo of It upon her back.

SOLD BVALLLCADINO DRUC015T5 CHAPTER XVIII Continued. I wn'n't much good, but Dr. Jordan was a whole team and tho dog under the wagon. He sent mo for tho con ductor and between us we got Hartley into tho baggage car and away from tho crowd of passengers. Then we rigged up a kind of bed for him on a pile of trunks and tho doctor went to work. He got Martin's coat off and his shirt-sleeve up and had a good look at tho arm. Hartley opened his eyes while the examination was going on. ' "Hroken, doctor, Isn't It?" he asks, weak. "Yes," says Jordan. "Only a simple fracture of the forearm, though. We'll get off at the next station und flud a comfortable place for you." Hut he wouldn't bear of It. Not much ho wouldn't. He was going to see that that doctpr wont straight to Eastwlch. Said he'd had too much troublo getting him on that train to let him oft It now, ovon If 'twas his neck instead of ills arm that was cracked. Thero was considerable pow-wow, but finally Jordan give In. "All right," he says. "Needs must If tho old gentlemun drives. The arm Is In bettor shupo than you desorve, considering how you'vo treated It. I'll make a temporary bandngo, put you off at your homo Btatlon, and come back and set tho bono as soon as I can leavo tho boy. Hand me that box over there, conductor, please." With a Hint off a bo In tho baggage and pieces of Hartley's shirt, ho spliced that arm as pretty as a pic ture. Then ho rigged tip a sling mado of a couple of handkerchiefs, and thero was tho patient In pretty fair shape, considering. When wo got to Wellmouth the con ductor a mighty decent feller, ho was held up tho train while I mado ar rangements with tho driver of tho Old Home houso depot wagon to tako Martin to tho hotel. I was for going with him, but he put his foot down on that plan In a hurry. "No, air!" says he, "I want you to see that tho goods aro delivered. You get Jordan to the school on time and find out 'if thero's anything else you can do to help over thero. Then you can como back If you want to; but don't you show your head arourid me till the contract Is curried out. If you do well, my right arm's in pretty good condition yet." In spite of the pain I knew ho was In he munuged to pump up a grin. I grinned back, but there was a big lump just astern of my swallowing gear. The train got to Kastwlch on time, and Lord James was waiting with the team ut the depot. We drove to the Fresh Air farm like we was going to a fire. Miss Talford was at tho door. "Here's the doctor," I says. "How's the boy?" "The pain Is a little easier now, we think," says Hhe. "Come right up stairs, Dr. Jordan. It wns so good of you to come. Agnes hasn't slept since ho was taken 111." I followed the doctor nnd the Tal ford girl up to the bedroom. A mighty pretty room 'twas, too; all flowered paper, nnd colored pictures and buii shine. Hut I didn't notice these things much. Poor little Heduy! Thero he laid, in the middle of the big bed, his brick top shining against the pillow and the freckles on his nose llko red paint spots on a whitewashed wall. Ho knew mo and the llrst thing ho Bald was: "Hello, Andrew Jackson." That was tho name I'd nlways called him. Agnes Pago was there, sitting by the bed, holding tho llttlo fellor's hand. She looked mighty hollow-oyed and pale. Sho shook Dr. Jordan's hand nnd thanked him for coming. She shook mine, too, and I noticed how her hand trembled. The Duncan doctor was there, ready to begin his cnrvln'g. Dilcd-up young squirt, with whiskers aa scattering ns corn-stalks in the Ozone garden. j"Kr Dr. Jordan," Bays he, "awfully sorry you've been put to all this trouble. Entirely without my sanc tion, I assure you. A most simple case of appendicitis. I should have op- orated immediately whether you nr rived or not." Jordan went ncross to the bed. He looked the boy over, careful ns could be, thumping him, and listening, nnd asking questions about where he felt the worst, and nil that.' After n while be looked nt Duncan, nnd says lie: "The pain doosn't seem to bo to talized as yet." "No or not yet," answers t'other doctor, pompous. "Hut, of course, that's quite usual often the regular thing. Er yes." Jordan nodded. Then he asked a few more questions; when tho young ster wns took -sick, nnd how It begun, and tho like of that. Finally he says to Hedny: "What have you been eating lately?" "Aw, I don't know, sir. Miss Agnes give me some Jelly and some mush and cream and " "Yes, I know. Hut those aro what you'vo had insldo tho house. What liave you eaten outside? I noticed an orchard hack bf tho farm hore. Thero wore some very pretty lato apples on tho trees. How do they taste?" Hedny looked worried, soemed to me. Ho fidgeted with tho edge of the bed spread. "I ain't et only a few of 'em," ho says. "The onos on tho ground waB wormy, bo " ' Miss Agnes broke in hero. "He couldn't have cuton thoso apples, doc tor," she says. "I've expressly for bidden the children to touch them." "Yen, of courso," says Jordan. "Hut I've had the advantage of being a boy once myself. The npplea on the ground were wormy, you say. How wore thoso on the tree? And how many did you cat well, say night before Inst?" "Only six." says Hedny, beginning to snuffle. "I knocked Vm down with a rock. They was" "I see." Jordan smiled, quiet, nnd stood up. "Doctor," he snys to Dun can, "I wouldn't opotnte yet awhile. He seoniB to bo much easier now. 1 think It will be safe to wait." Duncan bristles up nnd waved Ills hand, pompous. He was going to spoak, I guess, hut all at once the sense of what Jordan meant seemed to work down through his skull. Ho looked at mo. I was beginning to grin. Then he looked at Agnes and Marga ret; they looked queer, and Miss Till ford's month win twitching at the corners, lie turned as red :i a small pox flag. "I I why didn't you tell me about those apples, boy?" ho asks, sharp. "You never asked me." snuilles Hedny. "All you unked nu was what I had for supper, nnd 1 told jou." "Green apples, hey?" says I, more to myself than anybody else. "Humph! Well, the never operated for them when 1 was a boy." I went down to the kitchen pretty soon after that. Eureka was theic and she and me hud a big talk. DuriVun come stomping down n little Inter nnd went out und slammed the door. "Humph'" snaps Eureka, bobbing her head the way nhe always done; "ho ain't going to get the chance to try his tricks on that boy. Pesky thing! Why don't he run n butcher shop? Then he could cut up and saw bo happy, and nobody'd be killed ex cept them that was dead already." Hy nnd by Agnes eaine to the door and called to me. "Mr. Pratt," hIio snys, when her and mo was lu the hnll together, "how can I thank you lor what you've done for mo and for Hint poor llttlo child?" "You cant," 1 Miys, short. "Hecause I ain't done nothing. It's Mr. Haitley that" "I know. Dr. Jordan has told me some. Please tell me the rest. How Is he? Is his nrm badly hurt? Is ho suffering? Do you think theie's any danger?" Hero wits my chance. And I Just spread myself, too, now I tell you. 1 spun the whole ynin, from the tltuo tho Dora Hassett pulled out of llonfe foot Har cove to when' Hartley was loaded Into the Old Homo depot wagon. "He's a brick, that's what he Is,' says 1, finally. "And he always was one. And there's one thing more I'm going to tell, now that I've got my hand In, Miss Page. That's about thut business with Wnshy Sparrow. Mr. Hartley wn'n't no moro to be blamed for that than a " She stopped mo. "Please don't," she says. "1 know; Eureka told mo. And, Mr. Pratt." she adds, and her face lit up like there wns a glory insldo It; "I'm not going to ask you to beg IiIb pardon for me. Hut will yon tell him Hint, ns soon ns I can lenvo Dennis, I'm coming to Wellmouth to iibIj his pnrdon myself, nnd to thank him? Tell him that, please." Euteka and me drove bank to Well month together. If thut old buggy had been trimmed up to match the feelings of tho two Inside It 'twould have been the gayest turnout that ever como down tho pike road. No circuit cart would hnvo been In It. Hut poor Van! CHAPTER XIX. Simple Versus Duplex. I left Eureka at Nate Scudder's. Sho was going to have him tako his dory and row her over to the lslnnd. Sho was to see to things there till 1 come. Dowey wns all right and over his cold, she told me, so she could tako up her regulur job again. Scud der was glad to see us. 1 don't know but he'd been scared that his whole gang of lodgers had cleared out and left him In tho lurch. 1 told him about tho doctor chase. Ills eyes stuck out. "Godfrey scissors!" says he. "It must have cost that Hartley man a lot for thut automobile." "Cost!" says I. "You bet It did!" "1 presume likely that'll come out of the doctor's bill, won't it?" "S'o," 1 says, scornful. "Land of Goshen! No. Why Bhould It?" "Well, If 'twaB me I'd take boiuo of It out. Tho doc hndn't no right to bo over to Hrantboro after giving folkH notice through the pnpors that ho was to Wnpatomac." Ho thought a min ute more nnd then ho sayB: "Say, Sol; don't you cal'lato there's a com mission coming to tiB from Hon Hither? He'd never let that auto wagon If wo hadn't provided the customer." Didn't that beat all? Somotlmos I think Nate Scuddoi'll rlso up In his coflln nfore they bury him, and want a commission from tho undertaker. He'll never lest easy and bco all that cash going to somebody else when bo's fiirnlahlng the center of Interest. I found Martin planted easy and pretty comfortablo jn an ttpstnlrs front room at tho Old Homo. His arm was hurting him Borne, of course, hut other ways ho felt better, having had a nap and something to ont. Ho wa'n't sick In bed at least; and that's how I expected to find him. 1 told him tho good news from Hed ny, and it pleased him 'most to death. Then 1 give him tho Pago girl's mes sage. Ho didn't sav much, but 'twas plain to see how ho ilt. I promised to be bnck next morning, nnd thon I said good-by. His good-by to mo was sort of ubsent-mlnded. I loft him smoking and looking dreamy out of tho window, I was in n hurry to get to Ozone, but I couldn't help stopping where thoy was digging tho collar for tho now part of the hotel, and looking for our old friend WaBhy Snarrow. Ho was wheeling dirt in a w'hoelbarrow nnd ho neenied mighty willing to lot go of tho handles and talk to me. "Hello, Washy," I says. "How's the Btomach and lungs these dnys?" He groaned. "Pratt." says he, "I'm dying on my feet." "Well," I says, looking down nt his cowhides, "you'd ought to have plenty of loom to do It In. What nie you dying of dropsy? You'io live pounds heavier than when ! see you last." He shook his head. "Toll Heky I'm doing my best to forglvo her," ho says. "When nil gone mnyne mien think how she homed me. Say! how aeon's she coming home? Lyeurgus can't cook fit to eat." 1 told him Eureka M bo home Hint night. It seemed to give him u little moro hopes, "When you see Miss Page," snys he, "Just tell her I want to talk to her, won't you? Tell her I'm 'most through with this world and 1 want to speak to her about providing for tho children, Ask her to come over and sou me," Just then the foreman yelled to him to stop gassing and hustle that wheel barrow along. Ho done It. surprising nromiit. too. I thought. I asked the foreman about It. "Oh!" ho says, "Mr. Hiown's give mo the receipt for him. Every time he groans or coughs 1 set him to lug ging stones; the louder the gronns tho bigger the locks. He's getting well fast." 1 took Nate's dory and went ncross to tho Island. Euioka was up to her elbows In woik. "Snkes alle!" says she. "Who's been letting this houso get this way? The tea kettle bottom's burnt out nnd somebody's been trying to ont tho nx. And the beds mo no wet Hint tho feathers aro beginning to grow." "That's the Nnttirnl Life," 1 told her. "Tho lleavonlles lived It for u wholo day." "I thought thoy lived It nfore I como hero at all," she nays. "Things wns bad enough thou, hut nothing llko, this." i " 'Twits mo that was the Natural then," says 1. "This last attack bit the Twins." "Do you know who I think ought to live the Natural LITo?" who nsks. 1 said I didn't. "Nobody but natural born Idiots, that's who." "I guoaa that who's been living It," says 1. ' Next morning I went over to see Hartley. He was feeling llko a now num. Dr. Jordan had been there ahead of me and set tho nrm. Hedny wns pretty nigh well. Jordan had the right cure for green-apple appendicitis und It worked tiptop. 1 drove up to tho depot In the Old Home wagon and met Vnn Hrunt. He was in fine spirits. The Tea Lead deal had been closed up the Streot pirates having decided not to pnas tho dividend and tho Heavenly TwIiib .had made money by tho keg, I Judged. "How'd New York look to you?" I nsked him. "Hush!" says he. "Don't Bpcnk lightly of Bncred things." When ho heard nbout what had hap pened while ho was away ho was tho most surprised mnn lu the county. "Skipper," he says, grabbing my hnnd, "you're a star of the flrBt magni tude. You and Euioka are tho redeem ing features of this Natural experi ment. You puy the freight and a large robate over. And Martin! bully old boy! I want to sco him." Him nnd Ills chum was shut up to gether for a good half hour. When Van como down to the porch lie beck oned to me. "Sol," ho Bays, "there's nnothor question I want to ask you. Of course 1 know that Martin liked tho boy nnd nil that, but that reason won't qullo do. What's the real ono?" 'Tw'iib a ticklish place for mo. Hut I couldn't see but ono way clear; that it, but one way which was best In the long run for nil hands. So I spunked up und answered. "Mr. Vun Hrunt," Buys I, "I hate to eny it, but of course you know that your partner and Miss Agnes sot con siderable store by each other nt ono time. And you can't brenk off feel ings llko that same as you'd bust n piece of string. 1" Ho nodded. "All right," he says. "I'm not altogether u blockhead. That'll do. I've been sure of it, my Belf, for pomo time." "I understand," I wont on, "that tho reason sho give him tho mitten was on account of his being too grasping after money. If she'd seen him, like 1 have, Just throwing It nway as If 'twas shavings, I guess likely sho" He Interrupted und looked at mo queer. "How did you know thut wns tho reason?" ho askB. I'd put my foot lu It away over tho shoo laces. "Well," I stammered, "you boo I that Is, 'twas told to mo and courso I can't swear " "Whn told It? Oh. never mind. I see. Donr James! Well done, good and faithful servant. You've been faithful over a few things, and general superintendent and adviser of all tho rest. Sol, I learned something when I wns In New York.
