MISS ALADDIN By Christine Whiting Parmentcr Copyright by Ohrlatln. Whiting ParmanUr WHO Service T IE days that followed ercnefi new lines In Columbine Nelson’s hire, for only a few hours after her second telegram to Massachusetts Jack took an unexpected turn for the worse. “Shall I send for his people?" she questioned, when after a time that seemed endless a grave-eyed doctor “I should wait," he answered. “If Jack were m.v own son. Miss Nel son, and I so far away, I should say the same. You see. If the end comes. It will he soon; and since his parents could not reach here In time to see him. Isn’t It kinder, and wiser too. not to harrow them with the knowledge of how dark the prospect looks just now? If he lives through the night the boy will probably recover. I don’t say that his condition Isn’t desperate; but somehow I’ve the conviction that he'll make the grade." Miss Columbine did not leave the hospital that night; nor did she close her eyes till enrly morning when a nurse appeared to say that Jack seemed to have turned the corner and his physician felt the worst was over. Not until then di.l the old lady cry a little, and the doctor ordered a powder that brought sleep It waa almost noon when she heard a rap upon her door, and Matthew Adam entered the room. “Did I wake you. Miss Colum bine?" “No; I was only snoozing How's everything now, Matt?" The young man sat down on the bed and grinned at her. "Jack's sleeping -naturally. Nan cy Isn’t suffering this morning; and It looks as If the kids were coming through without u single ainputa tlon. That Osgood hoy’s been telling me what happened. I tell yon. Miss Columbine. I take oIT my hat to Jack and Nancy—and to some of those brave youngsters, too." “I guess the papers didn't exag gerate this time.” she observed. “You're right. But Just the same. I miss mv guess If it's not some shock to those young relatives of yours when they read the story I How do von suppose It feels. Miss Columbine, to have the country re gard you ss heroic?" “Well. It won’t hurt either of ’em,” responded the old lady. “They’ve got the Nelson common sense. It’s I who's likely to be pufTed up. Matthew Think of the courage It must have taken for a boy to start out In the teeth of such s storm, especially when the driver had disappeared And Nancy! A girl brought up as she’s been— everything soft and easy so far -to do what she did— Well, all ! can suy Is that m.v pioneer mother would have been proud of her!” Matt noted with pleasure that Mias Columbine «r>oke with her ac customed briskness. “You must go home today, Mat thew." she said later. “It’s been s comfort knowing yon were here: hut your father needs you, and I’ll not be ha hied any longer" The young man smiled. “I’ve had orders i**r telephone to stay on duty a day longer Mark's on hla way In from f’ralrle ranch right now. Mother’s coming down In the track to take him home and. Incidentally, pick out a new car! That’s one good thing came out of this blizzard. Miss Columbine, we’re practically forced to buy a decent automobile. The old one’s done for; and even had can't rake up an ex cuse to put us off The Adam clan Is thrilled at the pros|»et t." Miss Columbine laughed and said: “Your mother deserves a modern ear If anybody doe* Is Mark all right again?" “He’d come whether he was or not. All that kept Mark from Join ing that rescue party. Miss Cidum bine, was the fact that Aunt Em bid his clothes and locked the closet where CJnde Tom kee(t* his.

After this things went more smoothly, and the messages to Edge mere contained only the best of j news. Thus there came a day some j two weeks later when Nance found herself in the big black walnut bed again, with General Grant looking “Perusing Your Fan Mail?” down disapprovingly, she thought, on her Chinese coat; and Mark Adam looking quite the opposite, as he stood In the doorway. “Perusing your fan mall?" he questioned soberly Nancy laughed. Her bed was strewn with newspapers and letters, not to mention various telegrams | from her admirers. “Come on in and he seated. No. not on the bed, Mark ! My feel don’t | seem to belong to me vet. and l’\e I | tot the feeling that If anybody sits I >n em they'll break oil'' Where's Matt? I want him to read some of these foolish letters, ('an -can yon l.eat that?” She to*sed him a mbslve; hut before Mark had time to look at It, Aurora Tubbs puffed up the stairs "What'll you have for dinner, i Nancy?

Would you like apple pie. or ! a good baked custard? Mis* Col umlilne says to order anything yon want. My stars! Your bed’s a per feet sight. I hope this praise you’re getting won't turn your head.” Nancy smiled and replied: “I’ll choose the pie, Aurora And could we open a can of your wonderful string beans?" "Sure we could Why don’t you ask right out to stay to dinner. Mark Adam? You might as well as to alt there lookin’ hungry?" Mark shook hla head, endeavor ing to ap|>enr grieved “You wrong rue. Aurora. I’m headed for Colorado springs soon aa rny elder brother arrives from home In the new car. We’ra t# swap vehicles; and I dire say Matt would appreciate that grudging in vitation, though If you ask mo. ha’s already enjoyed more than big share of our nation’s heroine.” ”1 think he’s gettln' awful sweet on her,” observed the woman, so soberly that Nance suppressed a smile "So m 1,” said Slark. and grinned at Nancy.
