Laurel Blone's marriage to Gran
ville Burton "surprised ever) one, in
eluding Burton himself, lie ha4 not
felt the need of remarrying until he
realized that his two little girls
should havo a mother. Bo he chose
Laurel, a woman out of another
tcorld and a Seoman taho loved him.
Her discovery of his reasons for
marriage changed the world for her,
and after their son was born she with?
drew into herself. Granville's oton
discovery of his growing lovo for his
wife awoke no response in Laurel,
who had become a woman devoid of
sentiment.
IT WAS, not until then that Laurel
realized what a passion of love she
nnu given to Junior.
he had been forced to give some of
tho love that she had felt for Gran
ville to something that was IiH. She
hung over tho crib nnd watched every
breath tho baby drew every diange in
tho little, face. She touched with a
passion of tenderness the fever-flushed
cheeks. She looked nt Granville and
did not even sea him, nud thnt fact
was harder for him to bear than tho
illness of his son.
The boy had pneumonia, nnd Laurel
refused to have any one1 near him. She
did everything herself. When sho slept
it was on a couch in the nursery.
Doctor Summers insisted that she
take more care of herself.
"She must gcb out." he said to Gran
ville. "She must take exerclso nnd eat
nnd rest, or she will break down. She
Is trying to bottle up her emotions, nnd
It is a terrible thing for n woman like
Laurel. Seo what you can do for her,
Gran. We're doing nil wo can for the
baby. Wo must wait for the crisis;
that's nil, nnd we can't hurry it. Make
It clear to her that sho owes it to you
and the baby to keep up her strength."
Tho baby, had been sick three days
and Laurel had not once eaten dinner
with Granville. She ato hurriedly from
a tray that was brought to her sitting
room. On tho third day, after dinner,
ho went to her door nnd knocked.
Sho was lying on tho rhalso tongue,
her eyes closed, her brnln nt fever heat.
Her head seemed on fire and her eyes
burned. She pressed, her fingers Into
them like a child triing to case their
pain, nnd at first she did not hear the
knock. 'Granville knocked ngain nnd
she started up. ,
"Who is it?" she called.
He turned the knob nnd with n eaten
of his breath stood on the threshold of
her room. A shaded lamp burned close
to the chaise tongue on which sho was
lying. It threw n glow over her hair
and her face was in shadow. One hand
had gone to Her throat; her heart was
It was ns thoughJ giccr weakness overpowered her nnd she

Fear buoyed her upc nnd she forced
herself Into n sitting posture ns he
came into the room, closing the door
behind him. Her nerves were at tho
breaking point ; there was just one idea
in her head. . .. ,
"The baby," she gasped. "Ho is
worBO?"
Granvlllo shook his head. "No, he's
lust tho same. I enmo to ask you to
go out for a walk so that you will get
some sleep tonight." He spoKo genuy,
nnd he stood close to the chalso tongue,

you're worn out. You must get Bome

"I rnn'fc rest." sho said nulckly.

"Yes," the person nt the other end

"Tliis is the complaint department,"
the clerk explained, "What did you

"Oh, how mnny times do I havo to

to hnve her piako that dress first thing

After somo trouble on the part of the
