j HEART OF EILEEN
By LOUISE OLIVER.
II 1:
(Copyright, 1918. by McClure Newspaper
! Syndicate.)
Eileen Walnwright, leaning back
wearily against the eretonne-covered
back of the piazza rocker, could not
help overhearing the conversation going
on jnst Inside the club window.
At first the words bad no meaning,
1 for her own thoughts were busy with
other things. Then She realized that
some one, an often referred to "she,"
was most unpopular with the convere*
|| ers, and suddenly hearing her own
name mentioned she realized that she
herself was the subject of this un'
pleasant discourse.
j It was Mrs. Langdon Merrill talking
i to her sister. Mrs. Enoch Cuthbert,
about her son, Lionel Merrill and Eileen
herself.
j "Don't you see It all, Jennie?" said
, Mrs. Merrill's voice. She's come back
; because she's tired of nursing. You
know that's what both the Walnwrlght
girls did after their father lost his
money?trained for nurses. And as
she an<f Lionel had a sort of boy and
girl affair, she thinks she'll take it up
now where they left ofT. I shouldn't
worry about It. only the girl's a raving,
tearing beauty. She's got that
sort of ethereal look about her that
appeals to a man. And she knows
It, you can gamble, and she's going to
play for big game. But she's not
going to marry Lionel Merrill If I
know anything. Just when he was beginning
to take an Interest In Mary
Evans?the very thing I've set my
heart on all my life. I don't know
what the Aberdeens meant by asking
her here! Why didn't she go to France,
where she's needed? I've no patience
with nurses who don't go to France."
There was more, but Eileen, dedd?

left
Her indignation had cooled to E
qnlet amusement
She joined the Aberdeens at the end
of the terrace, watching a set of tennis.
"Thirty?love," explained Jean Aberdeen
as Eileen came up. "Lion Merrill
and Mary Evans are winning."
It was the first time Eileen had seen
him for seven years, and she approved
of what she saw.
"Why didn't Lionel Join the army?"
she asked Jean.
"Why!" Jean's eyes were indignant
"Because his mother wouldn't let him.
It's a shame, when he wanted to go so.
The set over, Lionel came up to the
group on the terrace. "It's little Eileen
back again," he said, taking her hand
and looking searching!}* down into her
eyes. "And she's come back a very
_ beautiful lady?but It strikes me, a sad
lady. We'll have to have a few parties
to brighten her up, I see that."
Eileen laughed and shook her head.
"It's not a time for parties, Lionel. One
can't feel festive these days."
Mrs. Merrill arrived In time to hear
the remark.
"You're very patriotic. Miss Wain
wright. One would think your patriotism
would enrxy you across seas."
Eileen's face clouded. "I wanted to
go," she said simply. "My sister and
I drew lots and she won."
Several days passed in which Lionel
Merrill managed to see Eileen very often.
Then, one soft evening In June, when
the stars were struggling through a
long pale twilight, he told her he loved
her.
"Eileen, dear, I love yon," he said
suddenly. "I can't let you go back to
New York. I can't let you . go away
again, my white angel."
She drew away gently. "Lionel, we
must not talk of love. It can't be. You
see, I know your mother doesn't approve
of me. And I'll never marry a
man against his mother's wishes. Goodby,-dear
boy. I must go In. And please
don't try to see me again."
Two days later Doctor ITarhlson
?""q Hnnmtitgira nt the Merrills',
where Mrs. Merrill was anxiously
watting for him In the hall.
"It's pneumonia, Mrs. Merrill. Lionel
must have a nurse right away. But
there isn't an extra nurse in the state.
"But what shall we do?"
"I'm sure I don't know, Mrs. Merrill."
"I have It," she exclaimed. 'There
! a girl?a nurse visiting near here. Per!
haps she'll come." But her vole? was
j unwilling.
Mrs. Merrill herself called on the
| telephone and stated her case.
"I'm $orry," said Eileen. "My rest
Is over, Mrs. Merrill. I must return to
New York today. The babies and
mothers need me. I'm pledgod to them
and to the soldiers, if they need me
: on this side. I can't take any one else."
! "But Lionel needs you, my dear Miss
| Walnwrlght. If he were a soldier
, would you nurse him?"
I "Yes."
| "Then, my dear, he'll be a soldier.
; He has always wanted to be one. it is
i my fault he wasn't If I consent when
! he gets well will you come?"
"Yes, I c:.n do that without breaking
my pledge."
"And Miss Walnwrlght! There Is
another thing. I've been fearfully unkind.
I?I think Lionel cares for you
i a great deal. If you can forgive me, I
| am going to ask you to be kind to him."
"It seems," mused Eileen thoughtfully,
as she hung up the receiver, "that
It takes the fear of death to move
some people's hearts. I often wonder
It this war Isn't Just for that viry
thing! Of course, I'd have gone, bay.
dear, but It didn't hurt your mother
to coax me?and It dldnt hurt her to
i promise you to your country either, my
I soldier."
