Stubs named heh that the very first I
day she appeared In the square oml |
passed out nickels to those youngsters
who were, lucky enough to please her.!
Stubs and Mariska saw her first, |
Peaceably enough they were offering ]
advice to the old man who cleaned out
the dry leaves from the fountain. It
was the sure mark of summer time
when they started up the fountain, ;
and the children regarded It as the
signal fpr celebration.
“If you’ll just stand still for a min
ute I'll give you a nickel,” the girl
called .to Mariska, as she stood with
a littib pad and pencil by the edge of |
the circular walk around the fountain.
And Mariska took up the offer In
stantly.
Stubs eyed the proceedings with
alert suspicion, but as he managed to
edge about and get a look at the
sketch the girl was making of Marl-
ska, he approved, and from that first
day he had championed the cause of
tlie “Nickel Lady,” as they all named
her.
One evening he met her on Second ;
avenue fn the rain. There are degrees
of social status about Stuyvesant,
squarft that are quite as peculiar and
ns rigidly drawn as those around
Washington square. Along its far west-!
crn and northern boundaries it is ex- ’
elusive and undemonstrative, but tlie
park itself on either side is a flower- j
bed of youngsters on summer days. ;
And they had their favorites besides ,
the “Nickel Lady,” foremost of all the ;
“White Doctor.”
He was young and always dressed I
In white, and when his ambulance
would swing across Second avenue he !
never failed to wave in Answer to'
Stubs’ greetlug and the rest of the
“hunch."
Therefore Stubs honored him and
when the “Nickel Lady” hesitated
laughingly as the rain beat down upon
her, and before he could stop her,
had slipped across the street under
the very wheels of the huge gray mall
car, the first thing he thought of was
the “White Doctor.” He stuck by her
when the crowd gathered, and It was
he, too, who got Bandy Moran and
Chick to carry her to the sidewalk
where she lay still, and white.
When the ambulance swung around
th® corner and the “White Doctor”
jumped clown, Stubs explained the situ
ation to him briefly.
■"I'm her best friend around. here,"
he saId loftily. “Is she hurt much,
Doc?”
Skillfully Rex Fuller knelt beside
the slender figure, making his exam
ination. “Just shaken up and suffer
ing from shock, old man,” he told
Stubs, “What’s her name and where
aoes sheTTver ''“•3S3*ae2E825S:
Stubs scratched his head doubtfully.
He didn't know. Neither did Mariska,
nor Banty, nor any of the “bunch”
hanging around mournfully. She was
just the “Nickel Lady.” So they took
her up to the hospital, and Stubs
made his arrangements with the doc
tor to visit her as her “nearest
friend."
That night when she lay conscious
for the first time, Rex waited until
the nurse had gone down the ward,
before he asked her the necessary
questions to fill In her card.
Her name was Phyllis Truax, she
told him. Alone In New York and un
married.* an artist by profession. That
was all, only when Stubs came to visit,
she sent him after stationery so she
could write a few letters, and he
noted they all required out of town
postage.
“You and me’ve got to stand by her,
Doc.” he told Rex out In the corridor,
and Rex agreed to do his part.
Three weeks she stayed there, the
first rest since she had come to the
city, and every day up in the beauti
ful roof solarium Rex sat with her,
•ordlng to his promise to Stubs. But

when he first met her, but she sat
with drooping lashes as he talked, and
Htipllr she said something to .him,
and after he had gone she smiled at
Rex somewhat anxiously.

said. ‘Ton won’t care for me a bit
