"Yes, it's the flu," he said curtly. "Nothing to do but to keep warm in bed and not move, and take plenty of milk and liquid nourishment. I'll come round in the morning and give you an injection. Lungs are all right so far." "How long shall I have to be in bed?" said Aaron. "Oh depends. A week at least." Aaron watched him sullenly and hated him. Lilly laughed to himself.

"But there is no record yet of a pioneer who lived or died in vain," said Latimer. "Some day some day " He stopped and gazed at his friend, brooding. His love for him was a strong and deep thing. It grew with each hour they spent together, with each word he heard him speak. Baird was his mental nourishment and solace. When they were apart he found his mind dwelling on him as a sort of habit.

The old Doctor was beginning to look graver, in spite of himself. The fever, if such it was, went gently forward, wasting the young girl's powers of resistance from day to day; yet she showed no disposition to take nourishment, and seemed literally to be living on air.

"I'd rather have a pink frock, father, and a real hat; I just naturally hate sunbonnets! I'd favour a feather on my hat flowers fade right easy." "But harps is mighty elegant, Nella-Rose. Time was when your aunts and and grandmothers took to harps like they was their daily nourishment. Don't you ever forget that, Nella-Rose.
