When Trail opened the door to the demonstration room, a plump figure sat up abruptly on the bed in the curtained corner which re- presented a ward cubicle, stretch- «d, and yawned. It was Bcula Tagg. "Hello!" Beula said, rubbing her eyes and blinking resentfully. "Gosh! You would come and wake me just as I was eating the beat dinner I ever set tooth to. We'd just got around to steak and mush- rooms when you had to barge in. Say, it looked good! And guess who I was with." She giggled. "Top Sarge, of all people! Imag- ine even dreaming about Dr. Sar- ^nt feeding you anything but a â- tJiermometer!" "I can't," Tran said wearily, "imagine your dreaming about anything that didn't include food. . . . Listen â€" be a sport, Tagg. Help me get ready for my demon- stration tomorrow. Anita was go- ing to be patient, but she's down with an earache." "Not much !" Beula said with decision, and slid hastily off the bed. "It's too near dinner time to be mauled around â€" and anyhow, I've got a back ache, myself." "1 don't maul my patients." Tran advanced purposefully. " 'The comfort of the patient'," â- he quoted from a class text, " 'i3 the careful nurse's first considera- tion.' . . . Anyhow, the only thing the matter with your back it â€" " " 'A nurse'," Beula matched the fjuotnlion with another, " 'does not offer opinion.s. She only reports observed facts.' . . . And if you're going to say I eat too much, you jire wrong. Miss Armstrong says • nurse needs plenty of nourish- ment. . . . Say, that reminds me â€" jrou're to go to Misa Armstrong's office right away." Tran I* Wanted Exactly like that it dropped â€" out of a blue, cloudless skyâ€" just •t the moment when Tran had managed to forget the sword hang- ing over her head. "I knew you were going to meet Anita here," Beula explained. "So I wailed." "You would pick a place with a bed to wait in," Tran told her. "V/hat do you suppose Miss Arm.strong wants?" "She probably wants to know why my well-known sens<? of duty hasn't led me to report that fruit cake you keep hidden in your bu- reau drawer," Tran said, nerving hersel/ with flippancy against the [Minic in her heart. " 'Students'," she quoted again â€" from the House Rouiea this time â€" " 'are in honor bound to report infringements of regulations that might reflect upon the dignity of the house.' And if your constantly expanding waistline doesn't reflect on the dignity of the house, I dion't know what does." "Oh, Utility â€" you wouldn't!" "Of course not, goop!" Tran said, and went to meet her doom. Miss Armstrong looked up from a mass of charts and reports on the desk, folded her hands, and studied Tran thoughtfully as she closed the door behind her and stood waiting â€" very straight in lier nun-Iiko gray dress and white apron â€" feeling as if her trembling must communicate itself to the floor, and thence to the very chair in which Mis.s Armstrong sat. "I've been looking through your record, Miss Dearborn," the direc- tor of nursing began. "Yes, Miss Armstrong?" Tran temporized, shaking more and more. "I was particularly interested in your early training. You were in school on tile Continent, I be- lieve?" Interpreter She's trying to let me down easy, Tran thought wryly. She'd rather lay my being a misfit to the corruption of European culture than to my innate cussedness â€" bless her kind heart! .Aloud she said, /"Yes. . . . Yes, Mi3.s Armstrong." "You speak several languages, I understand?" "Why, yes. . . . Yes, I do." ^ "There is a critical case down in Emergency," Miss Arni.<(trong went on. "Apparently an Italian. He seems to be very anxious about something. It may be important li) find out what before operating. But the regular interpreter is out, and no one there can understand him. Should you mind going down and seeing what vou can make of it?" Would she mind? She would sell her soul for the chance. Tran cleared her throat and choked out, "Of course, Miss ."Xrm- sltong. I'll try." As she sped away, she thought. Suppose I hadn't gone into the demonstration room! ... I might not have seen Beula in time. I was sunk enough to sneak out and meet Bob tonight. If I had,' and anyone had found out, it would have been curtains. . . . Now, pear- haps . . . But a new thought brought her up short: hadn't Miss Armstrong heard yet â€" about her and Bob â€" in the instrument room this morn- ing? . . . Because, of course, she v/as sure to sooner or later. Dr. Sargent's eyes couldn't have miss- ed a trick ; and Dr. Sargent was popiiiurly known as the world's worst stickler for discipline. When Tran slid into Emergency, Dr. Bob Benchley w»s bending over a quivering figure stretched out on a first-aid examination table. The young interne's face was grim; aid the pre-^cjupied look he turned on Tran held no memory of their morning's cscj- pade. Engaging as Tran had found him in his moments of irrespon- sible gaiety, she liked him a thou- sand times better this way. The Emergency nurse stood at the other side of the table, a hy- podermic tray on a stand at her elbow. Now she stepped bick to make way for Tran. "Make it snappy, Agility," thi? interne directed briefly. "Top Sargo will be here in a minute. This is leally a case for Dr. Car- .son, only ho's just gone out. If Dr Sargent backs up my judg- ment this poor devil goes right up to G-1'. But before we put b.im under complete anaesthesia, there is something he wants to get off his chest." Face to Face With Terror As the man on the tabic- looked from one face to the ither, his own face gray and dripping with sweat, Tran shrank for a moment before something she saw in hia bright dark eyes, but did not at once recognize for an agony of terror. For in all Tran's four months at the hospital, this was the first time she had come face to face with Scalloped-edged PrinceM Dress By ANNE ADAMS What an endearing young dress this is!

Always before, if a real cnsij arose when she happened to b<i tibout a ward â€" doing, under Ih* supervision of an older nurse, the £>!mple little house-maidish task* which wer« all she was permitted bo do â€" the senior nurse would hastily draw the cubicle curtains that screened the bed and say curtly, "That will do now. Dear- born. I'll attend to this alone" or "Hurry and get me the head nurse. Dearborn." Now Tran murmured, "Is he â€" suffering much?" "Well," said Dr. Benchley, "a crushed leg isn't exactly a picnic at best; but he's had a local an- aesthetic. It's mostly that the poor devil's plain scared to death." Scared to death, Tran thought on a quick breath. Scared! 'llfan knew how desperately one could suffer fear frgin thj most trivial causes. . . . And this was no trivial matter. She bent over the figure on the table, put a small hand on hia quivering arm, and said softly, "I speak Italian. Tell me." At sound of her voice, gentle and pitiful, speaking his own tongue, the man centered his glit- tering eyes upon her face. "What will they do to me?" he a.skod, speaking as if they two were alone. "I can see in their faces that I am dying. Already my legs are numb. . . . Tell me the truth. Already I am half dead â€" is it not so?" "Oh, no," Tran told him; and was surprised at her own calm assurance. "That is not death that you feel. It is only that they have given you something to help the pain." "But what will they do to me?" he insisted. "If I am to die, I must know." "They will only do something to help you rest while they fix you up," Tran told him. "And you must not think about dying. You must think only about how fine it will be not to hurt any more." In her absorption, Tran did not natice that some one else had stepped into the room behind her. (To Be Continued) Be Subtle When Dressing "For Him*' Men Are FuMy About App««r- ance of the "Little Woman" "It's the boy friend," wrote a girl. "He's fussy. He says ho doesn't like my clothes; he objects to make-up. What can a poor girl do?" Go lovelier for the boy friend. Don't be obvious about It; coma out in a new guise, and let him sea how subtle you can be. Watch Your Make-Up Don't cling to the fouudatioa cream and powder putt idea. Use a liquid powder, which goes on and "stays put" and does not demand the constant attention to which any man objects so much. There are plenty ot excellent liquid powders on the market â€" ones which suit all skins and all tastes, and which do cling to the skin splendidly. Use a cream rouge â€" very little of it. It requires skill in application, you know; put on very very little and then work it off Into the corners, leaving no sharp edges. And be sure that it is the color you want. Don't Become Blonde Suddenly You can rinse your hair in a special rinse wlilcli will briut; uP the lights in it, but don't aim at giviug it new lights â€" ones that it never had according to nature. They'll clash badly, and only irri- tate tho boy friend. Men Like Conservative Costumes Men hate conspicuousnc^s. They get rattled by anything tli.it at- tracts undte attention. Men pre conservative as to col- ors. Ulua is genorally first favor- ite. They adore grey. The fuchsia shades which have been so popular nro not prize-winners in a man's af- fections. A black frock with really clean white trimmings holds first place ia almost every man's heart, and there is a soft green whicU .they fancy. Bo iareful over violet and heliotrope â€" and no niau goes Into ecstasies over brown. Men's Bandannas The Rage For Turbans With the current rage for hand- wrapped turbans continuing un- abated, women have taken to in- vading men's stores in search of something new in handkerchiefs and t>andannas. They usually anap up the bright wild ones that meif look longingly at but are afraid to buy. One of these ia a large lemon-yellow, blue and white sheer linen square with French songs printed on it; an- other has a list of all the saints' days against a vivid background, just in case anyone needs an ex- cuse for a holiday, and there are a series of 'kerchiefs with seals, anchors and turtles splattered all Over them. Uiue No. 33 â€" '3i) » H««?SSu By SADIE B. CHAMBERS Picnic Days and Sandwich Damanda Summer days are passing all too swiftly and no one wishes to miss any opportunity for the picnic or the lawn and porch supperâ€" or any other repast which Will take one to the glorious outdoors. Im- mediately arises a necessity for the simplest hospitality for the homemaker and the hostess. No- thing is more popular than the aanuwich, whether for the func- tions just named or for the school lunch box which mother will soon be packing once more. With these thoughts in mind I offer you the following suggestions hoping they will be practical and add to your variety. Cheese and Pimento Filling % cup butter placed in double boiler 3 eggs % cup sugar 3 level teaspoons mastard 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon cornstarch 1 cup vinegar 1 package creant: cheese 2 green peppers and 1 pimento % cup sour cream % teaspoon cayenne Beat eggs well, add sugai, mus- tard, salt, cornstarch and cayenne. Mix very thoroughly with egg beat- er, add to the melted butter in double boiler. Stir constantly un- til the mixture thickens then add the cream cheese cut up in pieces, stirring until cheese is evenly mix- ed. Remove from heat; add the aour cram whipped, the peppers and pimento. If not for immedi- ate use add the cream just before using. This will keep ir.definitely. For variation add chopped mint or parsley instead of pimento and pepper. Parsley and mint are al- so better added to the filling just before using. Peanut Butter Sandwich Filling 1 cup peanut butter 1 cup black currant jan 1 cup chopped dates (chopped very fine) 1 cup blanched almonds chopped fine. Mix first three ingredients very thoroughly, then add nuts. Cucumber Sandwich Fillinf 1 cup chopped cucumber % cup Onion 3 tablespoons sweet pepper % teaspoon cayenne 1 tablespoon thick salad dress- ing. Chop the cucumber and onion and drain well. .Add the seasoning and dressing. ""ottage Cheeie Fillings Cucumber and cottage cheese, 3 parts cottage cheese to one of cu- cumber. Strawberry jam and cottage cheese, 2 cups cheese to V4 cup jam. Pineapple (shredded) nuts and . . . teeth kept bright and attractive with the help of WRIGLEY'S GUM. GET SOME TODAYS cottage cheese, 2 cups cheese, % cup pineapple mixed well. Add chopped nuts, almonds being pre- ferred. To add to attractiveness cut sandwiches in various shades. In single or open sandwiches, which are best spread with a paste-like iilling garnishing is very import- ant. Have ready on squares of waxed paper, choppea parsley, mint, nuts and chopped egg yolk. If garnish desired for a complete covering place the whole piece on the chopped garnish desired, if just edges dip the edges turning as it is garnished. A dot of red currant or any jelly to the centre of the open sandwich adds mxch to attractiveness and appetizing appeal. Your Household Problems Have you fussy eaters in youi family?
