"It was a hundred and two," he said.

　　"Who said so?"

　　"The doctor."

　　"Your temperature is all right," I said. "It's nothing to worry about."

　　"I don't worry," he said, "but I can't keep from thinking."

　　"Don't think," I said. "Just take it easy."

　　"I'm taking it easy," he said and looked straight ahead, He was evidently holding tight onto himself about something.

　　"Take this with water."

　　"Do you think it will do any good?"

　　"Of course it will."

　　I sat down and opened the Pirate book and began to read, but I could see he was not following, so I stopped.

　　"About what time do you think I'm going to die?" he asked.

　　"What?"

　　"About how long will it be before I die?"

　　"You aren't going to die. What's the matter with you? "

　　"Oh, yes, I am, I heard him say a hundred and two."

　　"People don't die with a fever of one hundred and two. That's a silly way to talk."

　　"I know they do. At school in France the boys told me you can't live with forty-four degrees. I've got a hundred and two."

　　He had been waiting to die all day, ever since nine o'clock in the morning.

　　"You poor Schatz," I said. "Poor old Schatz. It's like miles and kilometers. You aren't going to die. That's different thermometer. On that thermometer thirty-seven is normal. On this kind it's ninety-eight."
