A Wife Confession^ ; Qlclele yarrisd, The Surprising ('omniand Which Dr. Pettit Gave to l.illian. I found l.illian sleeping so" soundly thbt I hated to awaken her. Kven any untrained eyes saw, however, Jthat It was the slumber of exhaus tion rather than a natural sleep, and I knew that it was necessary for Jar. Pettit to Investigate her condition }»s soon as possible. Therefore, I tip Iced back to the floor and beckoned him to enter gesturing toward l.illian as t did so. *3 It is always a marvel In me to see the transformation in Herbert Pettit Vben he approaches a patient. I Hare noticed it and commented upon it many times, hut it never fails to intrigue me. He Is like a man trans formed. All the mask of stiffness, re serve and stressed dignity fall away ftoni him and reveal a tense, effici ent and tender man of healing. At my gesture he advanced noise lessly toward the bed. There he stood finr what seemed to me an eternity Of* minutes gaxing down at Killian's pallid face, and listening to her breathing. I had taken a position on >he other side of the bed, but he sud denly looked over at me, and indi titled by imperative gestures that I Was to come close to him, and kneel hv T.illian's side, so I hat when she .opened her eyes, her first glance W’ttuld fall upon my face. When he -Had done so. he bent over and put hi* trained fingers upon m.v friend's wfist. Put neither of us need to have V* red to awaken her. She did not rco.o so nturh as a facial muscle, and jwl&en he had finished he spoke soft jg-Ibut imperatively: ■ "Awaken her,'' he said. When Raillery Helped. A fThern was an indefinable some thing in his voice, which rang r tiny hell of alarm in my soul, but I wasted no lime In Investigating It. With lips that I could not keep from trembling, I kissed Lillian's cheek, and spoke tenderly but with a note of the raillery which Is the conver sational coin used between us. ‘‘Come! Old dear! You'll never he able to get any salary out of the Seven Sleepers. They probably would he too jealous of you." Her eyelids lifted themselves lan guidly as if even that slight move ment were an effcst for her and her answer held no raillery, only fatigue. ‘‘What is it Madge? if it's nothing very Important, please let me go to sleep again." Her eyes w'ere closing as she spoke. Dr. Pettit touched my shoulder in peratively, and 1 spoke again, more sharply. ‘‘But it is Important! Dr. Pettit Is here and you must .talk to him." I expected and indignant objection, for she had expressly stated her views upon medical attendance for herself only ft few minutes before. But there was very little more energy in her manner, when she opened her eyes the second time, and fixed them upon D. Pettit's face. "All right, Doctor," she said lan guidly, hut with the jesting note which will invest Lillian's conver sation to her last breath. ‘‘Is there any particular subject you would like to hear me discourse on. "Yes, a most interesting one,” Dr. Peltii replied promptly. No one look Ing at his keen smiling face, would have recognized him as the dour man who had objected to taking her as an unwilling patient. ‘‘I want to hear you talk about yourself for an hour or two,—If your very good—and vol uble—perhaps I'll let you off in less time." She gave him a faint impish grin. ‘‘Threat or promise?" she asked. “You know that’s the most fascinat ing topic you can give me. What do you want me tp begin on? My fatal beauty nr my lovely dttpoiltlon?" I noticed that the tiny muarlea »t the corners of her mouth and eyes were twltrhlng wirh something other than amusement, end I was relieved When Dr Pettit, closely watching hsr put his hand with tender authority upon her wrist. “I'll tell you lalef," he said. "For the present, lust answer « few ques tion*. truthfully, now mind." His tone was Imperatively profes sional, now, and I-lllian looked at him faintlv frowning. "All right," she said again, “but—" she glanced at me—"I’m not going to answer any of your questions with anyone else present." T started from my kneeling position instantly, but Dr. Pettit's quick, powerful hand shot out. and gently but firmly pushed nte back into it again. "Stay right where yott are." he said, and then turned hack to Lillian. "Oh, yes, you are," he said calmly, "i want Mrs. Graham to hear ex actly the condition you are in. and then she will be able to carry out ray directions." fnnoyrisrht. 1#2R.) Mrs. Harris Sells Plays.
