The Palace Beautiful

CHAPTER XXVI
4/11

After a little time her cold got better, but her nightly terrors, the look of watchfulness and anxiety, grew and deepened as the time wore on.

Daisy's sweet little face was altering, and Primrose at last resolved to dismiss Dr.Jones, who was doing the child no good whatever, and to consult Miss Egerton about the little one.

It may be added that Primrose was able to pay Dr.
Jones's account without breaking into Mr.Danesfield's money.
