Nurse for Fred
By ALICE DUANE
£. by lfcClure Newepeper Syndicate.
WNU Service
CHIKLEY TOMPKINS pushed and
pulled every movable gadget In
algbt In her automobile. No answer
ing roar or purr of the engine re
warded her efforts. She leaned back,
tired. ’’Deader than Pharaoh,” she
said with disgust. “Serves me right
tor taking this forsaken road.”
She looked to right and left. Then,
“Eenle, meenle," she counted out The
estate on the left won. Scrambling
out of the car, she took a small suit
case from the back seat, and started
to walk to the shaded avenue that led
to the big house on the rise above the
road.
Shirley was hot and tired when she
reached the cool, comfortable looking
flagged terrace In front of the house.
But Shirley looked cool and charming
—in a smart little white linen coat
suit, with a bit of ertap pink blouae
showing above the revers, and a black-,
banded, white straw hat shading her
creamy skin and wide-set light brown
eyes.
A woman. In a fussy figured chiffon
afternoon frock, rushed forward to
meet her. She looked approval at the
attractive young woman standing un
decided before her.
“Come right along, my dear. I'm
waiting for you. I’m reudy to go out.
It’s the first time for weeks that I’ve
even planned to get away. And I waa
afraid you weren't going to get here.
Now, all you've got to do la to keep
him entertained. He’s around on the
south veranda. Please dou't go till I
get back.”
“But—’’ began Shirley.
“No huts, my dear. I like your
looks. You’re Just what be needs. You
see—well, anyway, the doctor says his
mind has got to be cheered up. There’s
a houseman who’ll wait on him—all
you've got to do is to be amusing, di
verting. So I guess all you’ve got to
do Is to act natural. You’re positive
ly too sweet for belief. I'm so glad
you were Intelligent enough to agree
not to wear s uniform. He mustn’t be
made to feel that he’s 111.”
The older woman pushed Che girl
around the corner. "Here. Fred,” she
called, “Here’s a nurse. I'll he back a
little past six."
And with a rush of chiffon and per
fume she was gone to the other end
of the terrace, and then she had
stepped quickly Into a car that slid
forward notselessly from the side of
the house.
The girl watched her disappear.
Then, with a laugh, she turned to look
around the corner to the south veranda.
At the far end she saw a figure
slumped down In a deck chair.
Shirley moved swiftly along the
venanda. “Well." she said cheerfully,
"I'm here. I'm not who you think I
am, but I’ll stay till—OhP Shirley
dropped her suit case In quite un
nursely fashion. “Oh!"
The young man in the chair slowly
turned and lay languidly looking at
her. Gradually a look of pleasure
spread over his thin, white features.
Then he closed his eyes weakly. “Sit
down, please," he said.
Shirley stepped quickly to his aide.
"You’re 111! I’ve startled you. I.et
me do something."
But the mau shook hla head quiet
ly. “No." he said. "I’m not 111." With
an effort he drew himself up In the
chair. “Really, I’m quite all right—
now. Where—when—why—how?”
"Don’t talk." Real distress sound
ed In Shirley’s voice. The man looked
so wretchedly 111. ‘Til tell you. You
see—was that your mother?*’
The man nodded a smiling “yes."
“Well, I was driving through thle
section on my way to visit friends In
Boston—and I took this byway—well,
anyway, I took it And my car Just
stopped going. I couldn't budge It
And one of the doors doesn’t catch—
so I brought my suit case with me and
came up here to telephone for help—
I didn't know you lived here. And
then your mother saw me and I sup
pose she thought I was a nurse."
“Yes. Poor mother. She won’t
leave me alone with Peter—he's the
man who looks out for me, so far as.

Sbe smoothed the blanket over his j
body tenderly. When he reached long,
thin white fingers towa.d her band,
sbe thrust it, cool and firm and small.
Into his hand. Then she leaned swift
ly over him, and placed a kiss on the
thin white fingers.
“What happened, Fred? I knew
you crashed. But I didn't know you
were badly hurt.”
“No—It was after you’d told me you
didn’t care enough to marry me. I

dare say.”
Several hours later the soft, smooth
purr of an automobile nearby was suc
ceeded by the chatter of excited
voices. From around the corner of
the terrace appeared two women—
Fred's mother and an attractive young
woman In a white linen suit, carrying
a suit case.
“But 1 don’t understand, of course,"
she said, “I thought I left you here
with my son—”
Sbe stopped talking as sbe caiue In
sight of Shirley and Fred. Her quick
mind, from what sbe knew and what
she surmised, summed up the situa
tion with fair accuracy.
“Well,” she added, “It looks to me
as If we don’t need a nurse after
all.”
mill can be built in any sized
unit required; mills of 25 tons
and smaller capacity can be
built in sections suitable for
airplane transportation; the
cost of a mill per ton capacity
is much less than the cost of
a ball and rod mill; in the
case of min scab requiring
cyanide treatment the cost is
greafly reduced, in many cas
es, where minerals require
smelting, l: ore can be re
duced from 25 to 90 per cent
by extracting the worthless
matter from the ore, climatic
conditions have no effect on
the mill’s operation.
RARE METALS NOT
COMMERCIALLY USEFUL
Gallium, germanium, indium,
and scandium are four very
rare metals for which very few
uses have as yet been found,
according to the United States
Bureau of Mines, Department
of Commerce. They, however,
possess certain interesting
qualities that have occasioned
the prediction that their com
mercial utilization may be real
ized at some not distant time.
Nowhere found in sufficient
quantities to attract attention,
these little known elements
are nevertheless widely distrib
uted in the earth’s crust. So
far they are found commercial
ly mostly in the sulphide ores
of zinc and must be considered
as being largely curiosities of
the zinc smelter. Recent pro
gress in electrolytic zinc refin
ing, however, now gives prom
ise that the way may be open
for the recovery of these very
rare metals in larger quantities
—-possibly in quantities suf
ficient to permit of their find
ing commercial utilization.
Gallium is a grayish-white
metal which in certain lights
shows a bluish-green color.
The luster is brilliant and met
allic, but tarnishes quickly.
The metal is tough, but is soft
enough to be cut by a knife.
The most interesting property
of gallium, however, is the
wide range of temperature
through which it remains liq
uid. The melting point is
about 30 degrees Centigrade,
and its boiling point is in the
neighborhood of 1700 degrees
Centigrade.
