The train leaves without him. Then Jebb is painfully injured in a minor accident. A fellow passenger revives him with a which makes his desire for liquor all the stronger. At the next stop David and Cynthia leave the train. David begins drinking. The next thing he is conscious of is a strange sort of chanting. A He looks door opens Negro, closely robes.

She knows nothing of the missing child. Learning that David is a surgeon, Miru- ma tells him of a powerful man in Uskub, Akef Bey, whose son is slowly dying. Jebb calls to examine the youth. CHAPTER The IV—Continued va, Paes led them up a broad Bey stairway to a large hall with a cush- not. He accepted Akef Bey’s word of honor as equivalent to a deposit in gold. By this time he was ready with the ether and, smiling courage into the brave eyes of the little stoic, he hid them under the hood and watched the deep breathing of the obedient youth till the drugged soul had ceased to murmur. ’ Then he lifted the body, limp with mimic death, and carried it across the hall to the room prepared for the operation. Hellwald sat outside on the divan trying to divert Akef Bey with conversation. As Muri- _Jebb alone was calm. a watch was placed in his palm, by a hand that lingered to clasp his, as the donor spoke: “I am glad to see a real doctorr You are an Amayrihere, doctorr. can, I presume.

And there is. no decent surrgeon nearer than Salonica. I have a set of instruments, but—’’ “Thanks, I may need them,” said Jebb. Under the spell of the drug the ‘| boy permitted Jebb to make a careful examination and confirm the theory suggested by the other symptoms. He turned to Murison: porary. The boy is very sick, and the pain will come back on him with renewed violence. The cyst will burst and flood his body with poison and he will die, unless—unless the danger is removed at once and for all time.”’ “By an—an operation?”’ “That is the one hope. It would be murder to neglect it. I should be a criminal unless I urged it.” With much circumlocution Murison broached the subject to the parents and they were affrighted at the thought. Jebb explained it to Hellwald and he joined forces with Mur| ison. Akef Bey was converted at last, and gave his consent. Akef Bey put all the servants of his household at Jebb’s command and Hellwald forgot the affairs of Aus- tria to act as interpreter, while Murison hastened to fetch the instruments. Hellwald could not forget the lost child whose name he could not pronounce, and he brought up the subject of the fee that Jebb should demand. The upshot of it was that Hellwald settled upon one hundred pounds Turkish as the fee for the yperation, whether successful or had heard of Jebb’s great success. his coachman,. When this man ar- rived he was dispatched post haste to request Miruma Hanim to come at once. “The possession of two wives, moosoo,’”’ said the Pasha, ‘‘was not my wish but my misfortune. Few Turks except the rich and dissolute have endeavored to keep more than one wife. The law permits us four, but the law does not furnish us with funds, He was al- most smiling at his success in inserting ‘the opiate so near the center of pain. He took under his thumb the boy’s wrist and mechanically felt for his watch. It was not there. He turned to Hellwald: “Bitte, wie viel Uhr ist’s?’’ Before Hellwald could answer, Jebb heard someone say: ‘“‘Fourrrteen minutes to eleven, doctorr.’’ tion yet with far more mangling of French grammar than Jebb realized, the Pasha explained that he His friend, Akef Bey, had told him what marvels the jerrah Jebb Effendi had wrought upon his son; and Gani Bey’s mother had visited the Pasha’s wife in her sick room to advise her to call him in at once; for the Pasha’s wife was very ill—if Jebb Effendi would pardon a gentleman for mentioning his wife to another gentleman! She was wasting away and no one seemed to know just what or where or whence her son went in with Jebb he looked ailment was.

The Pasha much as he dared. That night he exclaimed: “Tf only my other wife were here. She understands English.’’ ‘Your other wife!’’ Jebb echoed. **Yes,’”’ said the Pasha, apologetically, “it is my misfortune to have two wives, Moosoo Jebb. I will send for the other at once. Perhaps she can repay me now in part for the enormous expense she has put me to.”” He clapped his hands. A servant appeared, whom he dispatched for ioned divan along three sides, with low, carved tables, mirrors, and Turkish hangings. On a low platform covered with bedding, a boy of fifteen lay writhing. Jebb saw nothing, looked at nothing, but his patient. He took out the hypodermic syringe and said: “Could I have some hot water?” Jebb krielt at the bedside and examined the glowing body. He noted the right leg drawn up close. The Bey told, and Hellwald translated, the history of the case. Jebb glanced toward Hellwald with one word: “Appendicitis.” By this time someone was kneeling at his side with a ewer of steaming water and a basin. He filled the chamber of the hypodermic ‘needle and paused for the tablet to disThen he looked about for’ a solve. the first time. In the background hovered a young man in a shabby European costume.

The terrified boy fought him away but Jebb overcame the boy’s feeble resistance and thrust the needle in the shivering flesh. Gani Bey screamed as if he had a deathwound, and the women echoed him piercingly. Even the father closed his eyes and toppled against the wall. “Tell them the relief is only tem- CO. §20 South Main SALT LAKE CITY FOR the Nord-Express, tend as his David Jebb And FILM SERVICE Developed 8 Quality Prints- board him is five-year-old his temporary ward.

For nature, the seamstress, was stitching the wounds with needles of pain. But by the hour when the few swallows of the early spring woke, peace fell on the racked body and the frightened spirit of the boy. And all the household was blessed with sleep. CHAPTER V When Jebb had carried the young Bey sufficiently past the shoals to intrugt him to the care of his mother, he went back to the Hotel Turati to wait until it was safe for him to leave town. He was immediately besieged with patients of every sort, from the poor Serb who begged him to prescribe for the cough of his sick buffalo, to the British consul who sent for him on his own account. and the prophet did not ad- vise it. And it were easier to keep four tigresses in a cage, Moosoo Jebb, than four wives in a house. For Turkish women are tyrannical, moosoo, and very exacting. *“T was content with one wife. Nahir Hanim is a good woman, she has borne me many children—why should I have desired another wife? I did not. But his Imperial Majesty, the Padishah, our benefactor and enlightened master—whom Allah preserve!—in those beautiful days when I enjoyed his favor, felt graciously inclined to present me with another. My own wife—she is a noble woman, moosoo, but jealous —she threatened to destroy herself if I made the other woman, this Miruma, my real wife. I went through the ceremony, but only the ceremony. Miruma Hanim is beautiful, I am told, but I have never seen her without her veil.’’ “Tf you should grant your second wife a release she would no longer be an—an expense to you.”’ ‘“‘The release is itself a great expense,’’ said the Pasha, thinking hard, ‘‘I could not dismiss her without providing for her future or repaying the—the money I received from the Padishah as her dowry.”’ “Why not repay it?’’ “You surgeons speak easily of amputations.’”’ Though he could not understand the elaborate Turkish of the Pasha’s Meanwhile Hellwald had received a telegram from the Austrian Consulate at Salonica saying that the police had heard nothing of the lost child. And now Jebb began to wonder if he might not have lost the child in some other city. Salonica was a long journey from his last definite memory of Cologne, and there were various ways of arriving there. On the third day. of Gani Bey’s convalescence—a servant brought to his room a request that he grant an audience to Fehmi Pasha, Miruma’s husband. The name set Jebb’s nerves atingle, and he stammered as he told the servant to bring the Pasha up. He determined to make a brave front and, taking a hasty glance at his Turkish grammar, found the phrase for ‘‘Come in, sir, and sit down.’’ This delighted the Pasha and he taunched forth into a stream of Turkish. The flood carried away all of Jebb’s little phrases and he could not even remember how to say that he did not speak Turkish. The Pasha showed his disappointment at the check, thought a while, then ventured in bad French: ‘“Dje parle francais oon peu. Estce que moosoo le parle?” And Jebb answered in worse: “Ung poo.”’ Proceeding then with much cau- greeting to Miruma, Jebb could see the mingled constraint and curiosity of his manner. There was something of the aged bridegroom in his cordiality as he ‘seemed to try Co Spy to peer through the yashmak of the woman who had been his Yes-and- No wife for years. There was some- APIECE SQUARESInng 1’ 4g thing of the faithful husband, too, in his formal courtesy, for Nahir Hanim was lying in the next room and weeping weakly, a sick woman in great dismay. The Pasha received Miruma’s homage with a poor attempt at lofty majesty. Then he OF TRIANGLES JOIN SQUARES IN STRIPS TO FACE CURTAIN EDGES remembered Jebb, and spoke of him in Turkish with an evident flourish in his praise. Miruma, thus licensed, turned her eyes full upon him and the Pasha made the presentation in his best French. Jebb bowed, Miruma lifted imagi- nary dust breast, her and placed lips, and it her on her brows. Then the Pasha raised the portiere to his wife’s room and Miruma went in, trembling with fear and bowing with all the deference required of a second wife before the BashKadin. A little later Jebb was summoned. The Pasha spoke again to Miruma, evidently counseling her to talk freely to the American surgeon. Then he bowed himself out of the haremlik, leaving the foreign wife and the foreign doctor with their helpless victim. Tortured with her own impossible position, Miruma turned to Jebb with a halting: ‘What, please, am I to say or do, Jebb Effendim?’’ “Tf you will ask her my questions, and tell me her answers— please—hanim effendim—madamie. Ask her where her pain is greatest.” Miruma put the question in Turkish of evident circumlocution. For answer Nahir’s pale hand crept up and rested over her heart. *““Ask her how long she has been Te’ ‘She say she is seeck for very, very long times. She have great fever in the night. In the morning she is better, but not well; in the morning she can eat some little, but later nothing at all.’ Jebb had noted that Nahir was breathing very rapidly, or rather panting than breathing, for her respiration was exaggerated and shallow. He placed his hands at her sides, squeezed the chest walls. Nahir gave a little cry of pain. And now with keener scrutiny he descried below her left breast a slight distension of the flesh, not in outline but faintly in perspective. His first gasp of delight at his discovery was quenched in a realization of its vital import. “You have finded the evil, Jebb Effendim?’’ said Miruma eagerly. “Tt think so, madame, but I must make sure. If I only had an aspiratory needle! I don’t suppose I could get one in Uskub.”’ He thought hard, then he said, ‘“‘This hypodermic needle is large; it will have to do.’”’ He darted from the room and ran downstairs, followed by the astounded Pasha. The old coffeemaker, as he expected, had a vessel of boiling water on the coals. Without’further ado, Jebb dropped the hypodermic i It was over 100 years ago that Chang and Eng were brought to this country to become so famed that henceforth their name, ‘‘The Siamese Twins,’’ was to be passed on to every other similar union of birth.
