"Yes-s but how'n hell did a doctor know about it?" Sorry, the silent, blurted unexpectedly. "Oh, never mind but get dad in. I'll " She ran past them without finishing her sentence and burst incoherently into the presence of an extremely calm little man with gray whiskers and dust on the shoulder of his coat.

"Yes-s," said Marian slowly, "but let's hope we don't have to; I'm afraid I'd get awful hungry." They dined that night, quite happily, on a third of their duck, soup made of duck's broth and condensed milk, and half of a pilot biscuit.
