When the invalid was Informed of the plans, how ever, she grew grently excited nnd went into hysterics. She refused absolutely te leave her home or te nllew Ed Black te meke ene of the family. She seemed horrified nt Ruth's selfishness In con templating mnrrlage. She sold she could net last mere than a year at most, anil surely Ruth could put off her marriage 1mr Innr. "And all that happened," reflected Mrs. Merrow, "nine yearn age. nutn was twenty-ene years old then. New t.he'n thirty and old Delia is geed for twenty cars yet. She leeks healthier." The next day Ruth was obliged te take one of her pupils home. The child lived two miles elfl In the country nnd Ed Black, who oddly enough hap pened te drop In te speak te her, of fered te drive them out. Ruth sent one of the girls with a message te Delia, nnd, wllh an unwonted feeling of relief from the tiuties or school stepped into Ed's car, nnd they sped down the snowy read. The llttle girl, who had complained of some childish nllment, was left with hut' mother, who smiled lather mys teriously nt Ed Black. Mrs. Merrow v.ns there, nnd asked Ruth te stay, but she was anxious te get back te nttend te Delia. As they left the yard Ed called the girl': nttcntlen te n fleck of birds going south and in some manner his clutch en the wheel swerved and the car tipped ever. Until-, shaken nnd frightened, was helped into the house, and Mrs. Mor Mer row, premising te leek after Delia, went back with Ed. The doctor' wife seemed strangely clumsy in her housework. The stove began te smoke and the tray that she prepared se cagcily did net ut nil please tlui invalid. "I can't drink that tea. Tt boiled. I never hnve my steak fried, Ruth broils It," she complained. "Oh, well, ou oughtn't te ent much lying in bed. Uuth will be laid up for a few weeks, 1 guess," said Mrs. Mor Mer Mor iew placidly. "Guess her ankle Ib twisted. Geed thing it is the last day of school before Christmas. She won't lese any money. I'll send old Mrs. Beincs in te leek nftcr you " "I won't have her."
