"Father has the refusal of staterooms on two steamers. Could you start in—a week? Or shall we say three weeks?"

"Please, Miss Glynn, leave them behind. I'm sure you're just a nice girl besides being a splendid nurse. I want the nice girl with me."
"Very well. That may take two days longer."
"We'll sail, then, in a week. And will you—will you—will you accept something in advance, since time is so short?"
"Something——?"
"Yes. Your—your salary, you know."
"Oh, you mean money? I had forgot. I shall be glad to have some. I am very poor."
