"What makes you think so?" That maddened me, and I would have done anything to make him think I was not the foolish thing he evidently had classified me as being. There is one exercise here on page twenty that I hate worst of all. You screw up your face tight until you look like a Christmas mask to get your neck muscles taut, and then wobble your head round like a new-born baby until it swims. I did that one twenty extra times and all the others in proportion to make up for those two hours in bed. Hereafter I'll get up at the time directed on page three, or maybe earlier. It frightens me to think that I've got only a few weeks more to turn from a cabbage-rose into a lily. I won't let myself even think "perfect flower" and "scarlet runner." If I do, I get warm and happy all over. I try when I get hungry to think of myself in that blue muslin dress..

Patricia flung off the encircling arms, and was on her feet in an instant. "I know something of most things," assented the doctor. "But I confess I take but little interest in African barbarities." "Good old Norn!" she cried, with a mighty hug. "I told you that you were the real stuff! Ju and I are mighty proud of our big sister, aren't we, Ju?" "A proof of his innocence," cried Jen, promptly..
