gVre at the little party was a happy
"Leng'after he had retired that night
lit thought of the dread disease which
vis sweeping through Lanebore, and
ht thought of something Mlllle Parker
ltd salil te him that evening while her
young companion! fox-trotted trennd
them. v
"-We need nurses," sold Millie
thoughtfully.
' "They can be sent from town eas
ily," exclaimed Mnrk, with a mental
note te 'start' something when he re
turned te the citv. ' ,
"We hove thirty here new one for
each case and new we shall need mero.
Dr. Wynne, de you think I could help
in seme case i novo taxen care of six
people, my own, Until they, went and
thcre Is no reason why I could het help
save -a life I nm alone except for Reme
cousins with whom I live." She watch
ed htm expectantly.
"Have you any fear of the disease?"
, NO." .
"Then you might de you could help
a regular trained nurse relieve her. I
will' sce what I can de."
But when two days later he tried te
get word te Millie Parker he learned
te his dismay that she had gene te a
farmhouse three miles away te nurse
an old man who was very 111."
"Peer as poverty herself, and geno
te nurse a man who hasn't money
enough te pay for his own medicine,"
complained Millie's elderly cousin,
"Cannet pay for, his own medicine?"
repeated the doctor. "I'll tnke that
case myself. I came down te help out,
and Miss MUlre's case sounds llke a
desperate one." '
"Desperately foolish,", grumbled the
tlmirl soul ns she closed the deer gently
behind him.
Millie did net question Mark's unex
pected arrival at the plain little house
en the rocky hillside. Old Peter Jen
kins was very sick he would never be
any bettcr-it was impossible te And
any one te stay with him he had no
relatives, and se Millie had come.
"She's a pretty little, girl," piped
Peter in one of his lucid moments; "re
minds me of my Susie little and al
ways tender and careful of old felkn.
Susie's sleeping out there, en the hill
side along with her ma arid her sisters
'nnd brothers. They left me all alone,
and I'm just waiting for, the word te
go. Seems as if It would never come,"
he added querulously.
Mlllle flitted into the room with a
cup and spoon. "Just' n little bit of
this, Unde Peter," she coaxed. "See,
MiMMMMtartif
I'll take a tsits myself first te keep
you company." The old man smiled
wanly and took the medicine, his dim
ejes, following the blithe young form
around the room. "She's ns sweet and
whnlMinmn ns them wallflowers my
wife planted along the stone .wall," he
murmured.
Mlllle blushed as the met the. young
doctor's eys, for. she 'knew that he
had heard, her nickname of wallflower.
One day Peter had a visitor, a grave
looking mnn. who stayed for a while
and talked In a low, tone te the sick
mnn, The" nextday he come again and
brought some ether people with him.
Dr. Wynne frowned en this, but Mr.
Jenkins hed hU own way.
if Tsma MIDI who sal threuah the
Jeng inlght alone with the dying man:
It was Millie who talked with him
about Susie nnd the ether children and
the wife who had passed en before and
who were all waiting for his coming en
that ether shore.
"And you, 'little wallflower," he
whispered, "what of you, all alone in
the world?" ., .
"I shall find a way," said Millie
bravely, trying net te cry ever his go
ing, for he did net want te stay. "I
am learning te nurse sick people. Tnk?
Ing care of you has helped me, nnd
some day I shall go te a large hos
pital training school for nurses
und-r-" . y
"Ne, no, you will de nothing of the
sort; you shall marry. Dr. Wynne. He
loves you, little wallflower, and you
love him. My eyes are dim, but I
could see that." He smiled cheerfully
at her, and she hid her, blushing face
in her white apron and received hi
blessing 'en her bent head. Mark
Wynne crept away from the room ana
Mlllle did net knew that he had heard
these words until long afterwerd. Be
fore morning dawned again Peter Jen
kins' happy spirit had winged upward
te join his .beloved ones, and Millie was
alone. -
A few days afterward, when the
house was empty of Its tenant and
Mlllle was preparing te leave, the
strange lawyer enme te sce her.
"Peter Jenkins left a will," he sold
tersely. "He died a rich man. Yeu
nre his sole heir."
The little wallflower, i who thought
rtffl
teiSMta
he had nurtfd a, peer msn, broke
down and cried miserably. The law
er took himself off nnd sent for warn
"Yeu remember Mr. Jenkins' proph
ecy, don't you, Millie?" he asked.
"Yeu heard?" flashed Millie. ..
"Yes, nnd It is coming true, llttle
wallflower, isn't it?'! he whispered.
VMillle Parker married?" shrieked
Elsie Smith incredulously. "That little
wallflower?"

Blind Files
,Hew L. E. Waterman guarded against them
Blind files speak as fellows te your customers :
"We are unable te locate your letter"; or "your order was
. lest in transit"; or "we have no record of having received '
your remittance" (the remittance was' received, buthe
correspondence was lestjn the blind files).
The chart' shows hew the L. E. Waterman Company, with
the help of L.B., net only prevented the possibility of blind
files, but in addition, obtained immediate concrete results.
Your sales force, your factory equipment, your engineer
ing staff, your credit department, may be perfect. But if
you tolerate blind files in the organization, you are earning
hard profits with one hand, only te lese a share of them
with the ether.
Hew L.B. can help you'
Since 1876 Library Bureau has helped American busi
ness te increase profits by transforming blind files and
records into active business producers.
It will pay you te see an L.B. representative and discuss
your filing and record keeping departments with him.
Whether yyeu are in immediate need of L.B. products or net,
you will find his thought eh your problem constructive arid
worth-while. A phone call brings a representative.
