The Kendalls were among the few people in Eddington who had any money. but they never had throat trou- bles. These seemed to occur among the poor only. Elsa Kendall was called the prettiest girl in the town, and she was the heiress also. To pay court to her was perhaps the only worldly wise thing that Sydney Deane did in his three years’ residence in Eddington. but Elsa Kendall grew from eighteen to twenty-one, seeing Deane almost daily except for her own brief ab sences from the town, and she never knew the nature of his sentiments to- ward her. In the early days she fancied herself in love with him. Then she was his friend, adoring only his voice. and at last she came to despise him just a lit- tle as a weak man, finical in his devo- tion to the proprietjes and incapable of dealing with the world. Relentlessly she forced Deane into the battle. It was her energy that propelled him in- to the larger field. When he was gone she missed him very much and shed some tears. In New York Deane made some very nice acquaintances among the doctors. but got no patients. Dcane‘s Stock of money began to run low. His voice was earning him noth- ing except the admiration of his neigh- bors and of the wayfarers who paused outside his windows, but he felt that the day was at hand when he must sing for hire. This thought was a thorn in his flesh, and there was an- other that was [even sharper. He had neglected one of Elsa's most urgent :ldmouitions. Worse, he was deceiving her about it. “Look up my uncle, Dr. Kendall, the very first thing,” she had said to him. “He will help you.” Deane had "looked him up.” as the phrase is understood in New York. and had not been satisfied with the re- sult. To .put it mildly, Dr. Kendall was a man whodiu not avoid notoriety. His name was constantly before the pub- lic. Interviews with Dr. Kendall if cut from the daily press and pasted end to lend would reach to the planet Neptune and tie in a double bowknot. So said .a'doctor whom Deane ventured to interrogate upon the subject. and he “Ed: I “Kendall is‘ in good standing, of course, and he’s an able man, probé ahly-one'of the best men on the throat that we 'have, but he advertises him: self out «of all reason.

He got a few patients. but his salary as tenor in a New Haven church choir constituted more than smiling. “Miss Winthrop does not impress a me as perfectly frank,” responded Deane. “If I could believe that there was a secret romance. that some It appeared that'he was expecting visit from a very interesting patient, just now.” instantly. tlon.” escence and glanced toward the door. reporter.” dress, which Richards jotted down. “He is a recognized authority on dis- eases of the vocal chords and is widely known both here and abroad as the author of”â€" And he rattled off with perfect accuracy the titles of a half dozen of Deane’s contributions to med- ical publications. Deane observed, with alarm, that Richards was writing shorthand in his notebook. “Now, as to this case of Miss Win- throp,” continued Kendall. “It is a matter of considerable public interest, and I have her permission to speak freely. She has suffered an almost to- tal loss of voice. This is the condi- tion.” He proceeded to describe in popular language a condition of congestion and paresls ,.of the larynx, with spasm of the bronchial tube. He took a leaf from Blchards’ notebook and drew a diagram. Nothing that he said in- dicated to Deane’s instructed mind that there was anything unusual in the case, except the failure of treatment to relieve it, but it was all so entertain- ingly expressed and with such a hearty, fatherly sympathy for the young woman in her affliction that Deane could not deny its merit as a good story. At the close of the narrative Miss Winthrop and her patron arrived. Miss Winthrop was a quiet mannered, pretty girl, with dark, dreamy eyes and a singularly white skin, subject to peculiarly rapid and beautiful play of color in accord with her emotions. She. was obviously consumed by anxiety as to her voice, and her eyes filled with’ tears when she tried to speak of it. Her “interview” was furnished by Mme. Sylvestre, and it was a gem of sparkling cleverness. When Richards had gone Dr. Kene dall devoted himself to his patient. with Deane as his colleague, but the younger physician speedily perceived a‘ shifting of the responsibility to his own shoulders. The puzzle of the case lay in the cause of the trouble. Its history disclosed no reason for the affliction. Miss Winthrop was in per‘ feet health except for the local con: ditlon, which seemed to be the result! of some malign enchantment. Deane was expected to solve this riddle. Ed was put upon ‘his metal. “Well, my young friend,” said Ken- dal-l when the patient and her patron had departed, “what do you think of the case?” “I have seen a precisely similar con- dition,” he replied, “resulting from em from personal susceptibility to the perfume of certain flowersâ€"in that case, While lilacs. The only thing that bothers me is that Miss Winthrop de- nies having been subjected to any such influence. And a singer of Mmel Sylvestre’s experience must be well aware of the danger of perfumes. Ill a case of this kind she’d suspect flow‘ ers instantly if any were about. In fact, Miss Winthrop says that Mme.

Celia Winthrop was her name, but she might substitute something with a for- eign sound when she made her debut- in grand opera. “Supposing that we succeed in putting her voice to rights again," he added. “It’s in bad shape At this point a card was brought to Dr. Kendall, who gave orders that the visitor should be admitted. Deane rose as if to go, but Kendall checked him “I want to call you in consultation on this case,” he said. “You’ll see a wonderful throat in a rather odd condi- It was an invitation that could not be declined.

Dr. Kendall introduced him at once as Mr. Richards, “whose writings on music and kindred tOpIcs are read by everybody.” In recogni- tion of this praise Richards glanced at Deane, with a smile, and said, “I’m a “I have called Dr. Deane in consulta~ tion on the case of Miss Winthrop,” said Kendall, and he gave Deane’s ad- J ! not'be robbed in, use scalding the clothes.

You’re all right.” “But you told Mr. Richard: that the case was very obscure?” ‘That’s all right,” laughed Kallall. “I'm saving the violets for another story.” On the following afternoon a" very elegant automobile stopped before Donne’s door.

Dr. Deane figured in the story as an expert of the highest attainments who,; in association with the famous Dr. Kendall, had penetrated the mysterya of an obscure and interesting case.- The gratitude of Miss Winthrop was pictured in moving terms. It was all true enough. Deane had seen Miss Winthrop again at Kendall’s- office, and the girl was far upon the. road to complete recovery. She had. confessed to Mme. Sylvestre her pass. lug fascination and the secret recep~ tion of the violets from the French man. All had been forgiven ‘, A few days later Mme.
