with prominent notable im portant people but with the wars coming lavish social affairs were frowned upon and life was exceed ingly dull and lei ming was be coming harder to understand tears ran down her cheeks and with her plump hands curled help lessly on the coverlet her small mouth drawn into a pout she fell asleep when her frightened hand maid shook her she awoke with a start madam lei ming needs you the ricksha boy who brought the message waits without make haste for the first time in all her shel tered life the dowager hurried tot tering on her tiny bound feet she arrived at the rambling old mission i told my brother hospital her hair awry the curious eyes of weary hungry refugees fol lowed her progress across the crowded courtyard greedy hands twitched at her silken trouser leg and shrill voices pleaded for alms angry maledictions followed in her wake as she swept past unheeding rushing from the bright sunlight into the gloom of the building she collided with a very dirtyfaced little girl who had been standing directly in her path watching her approach with awe must you stand in the way child the woman scolded good ness dont shriek so here she dabbed at the childs tears immediately the howling ceased and a radiant smile lighted up the youngsters face mmmtnm she cried you amell good an odd halfforgotten warmth fwept over the dowager thank you child she said abruptly and hurried on she stumbled through th ree crowded rooms before she found lei ming efficiently bandaging a mans shoulder what does this mean demanded the dowager in dignantly i thought

sent word you were needed and you are im sorry if you were frightened fnghtnedl of course i was a tug at her clothes caused her to look down the little girl she had run into was holding a dirty little boy by the hand i told my brother if he would let ou wash his face he could smell you cried the child eagerly the small boy grasped the dowa ger pushed his face against one leg and inhaled deeply he smiled and clung staggering a little she stooped and picked him up his head dropped against her soft noulder and almost instantly he as asleep for a moment the dowa- fr looked uncertain but when th c iild stirred and sighed her clasp tightened decision brought pink spots to the plump cheeks she hadnt taken time to rouge ill take these two home with me ob thank you mother lei ming cried but are you
