take un any of her time until 1 1 had. There was a double reason for mv wanting to avoid Phoebe. I don't know whether or not she had heard of Neal's engagement, and I couldn't stand talking it over with her Perhaps another woman might have been braver, but my world was crumbling under my feet and I had no wav to piece it together nor to find a 'foothold in another world. Just as I was going to the telephone to call the canteen the telephone jangled. I stopped with my hand on my heart.

If it were Jim? It was Beatty. I had never been less anxious to see her, but I couldn't avoid her. Why did it have to be Betty, of all persons? "We're in town just for the day. Sister Anne. I couldn't stand it down at the bungalow any longer.

King Features Syndicate, Inc. When Jim flung out of our apartment and vent to his club I went down into the very depths of despair 1 felt that everything was over lor us two, that we had come to the parting of the ways and had gone beyond it. AU that endless night I had to dig my nails into my palms to keep myself from going to the telephone and begging Jim to come back. But 1 got through the hours somehow without humiliating myself so abjectly In the morning I determined to telephone the canteen and to ask for duty with two units that day. This double shift would busy me all the afternoon and evening and keep me from grovelling before Jim or from giving myself away to any of our friends.

I couldn't bear the thought of facing any one who would perceive my unhappinees and guess the cause of it. "I'll never ask Jim to come back, I told myself. "Never! If he doesn't need me, I'm not going to beg him to come to me because need him. After a few days I'll get adjusted to this and be able to bear it better Mhen 1 can see people." So I wrote Phoebe a note saying that had no news vet and wouldn't Lake Louise this evening," she explained. "And I must have my matron of honor and fairy godmother matchmaker with me to day.

You'll come, won't you?" "Of course, dear. I'll see the bride off to her belated honeymoon," 1 agreed chokingly. "Is Jim still there?" asked Betty, casually. "No; he's gone," I replied truthfully enough. "Bully for Jimmie keeps good hours.

Well, we'll call him at the office." "Will you come here for lunch? I'd love to have you see the house." I eaid half timorously, half joyfully, because that would give me a real excuse to call Jim an excuse mr pride couldn't reject. "I'd love to, dear," replied Betty. "But I've a bit of shopping I must do. So you won't be hurt if the house waits for our return. And you will come along to the stores with me, won't you?" "Of I replied.

And then we arranged our meeting place. It seemed to me that Kate was taking my day out of my hands. After a morning of shopping Betty and I arrived at the hotel where we were to meet Terry at one. "Terry's never late," commented Betty, after several minutes of waiting. "I'll wager he's waiting for Jim.

Has your lord and master learned anything about promptness?" "Jim doesn't keep me waiting," I replied. Betty laughed and searched my face with friendly amusement. "You should have, heard how primly you said that, Anne. As if you dared a mere husband to keep you waiting. Jim's still a boy, you know, and has a boy's faults tardiness, vanity, irresponsibility." "You sound as if you were describing, a weakling," i said bitterly, having just experienced a glimpse of how set and determined Jim could be.

"A weakling?" Betty laughed. "That's about the last thing I'd call Jim. I saw his bravery at the front Anne. I've seen his stubbornness, I too. And when I saw what a sweet lilac lady he'd married, I rejoiced.

Jim has a lot of latent force and determination. If he'd married a tactless creature or an ardent feminist there would have breakers away for the At the very first word I turned to watch Betty. I wondered if she had any hidden meaning 3 Garments of Quality early married days. But her gray eyes were smooth and serene. They hadn't even a hint of the quizzical jade green I'd often seen in their depths.

I sighed with relief. "Jim's a regular man," I said lightly. "I suppose they are all alike in thinking themselves the lords of creation and in wanting women to kow tow to them." Betty caught my hand in hers and turned me to face her. Her eyes searched mine until I felt myself crimsoning under her gaze. "I'm glad you can blush and get fussed and uneasy," she said after a moment's scrutiny.

"You sounded hard for a moment. Never let your self get hard," Anne. Jim didn't marry you for your sturdy oak qualities. He fell in love with your sweetness and fragrance," little Lilac Lady. Oh, here's Terry, and guess who's with him?" My heart gave a great jump.

Jim! Jim was coming. Terry had brought him. I'd be very sweet, not hard. Betty's advice, so lightly given was worth taking. I closed my eyes' tight for a second and opened them on a smiling world.

Then I turned my head to greet Terry and his companion. But it wasn't Jim. It was Anthony Norreys. To Be Continued RAID RAXD SCHOOL Xcw York, June 23.

FOURTH ST. Buy Here and You Buy Wisely THE LOVE GAMBLER By Virginia Terhune Van de Water CHAPTER XXI At the entrance of the apartment house in which Mrs. Duffield lived were two large clusters of electric lights that made the night as bright as day. Had the chauffeur' dismounted from his seat, his face would have been plainly visible to the trio in the limousine. So he sat still.

For a moment, Samuel Leighton waited. Then with an impatient movement he opened the door, helped his sister from the car and conducted her up the steps. Returning, he spoke brusquely. "The Astor now, Smith!" At the Hotel Astor the conditions were as bad, even worse, than at the apartment house from which the car had just come. To conceal one's face in this glare of light was impossible.

So once more David remained seated. Matters were simplified for him here by the fact that the doorman was all attention, and the chauffeur's services were not required. When Mr. Leighton had accompanied his guest into the hotel, he came back to the car. He paused as if about to speak, then with a brief, "Home now," took his seat.

That a time for explanations was coming, David was sure. Just what was suspected about him he did not know. information nan been most unsatisfactory. He feared to learn the truth, yet could not stand' the suspense of uncertainty. And if the truth was not guessed by Mr.

Leighton, how much was the employer displeased by his employe's lack of proper courtesy this evening? Soon to Be Enlightened David was soon to be enlightened. As he stopped the car In front of the Leighton home, he sprang down and opened the door for its owner. Leighton got out slowly, then turned and faced his chauffeur. "Smith," he said gravely, "you are not a drinking man, are you?" "Why, no, sir. Of course I am not!" was the prompt answer.

"I am glad; for if you were a drinking man I would think that a glass too much might account for your behavior to night." "My behavior to night, sir?" To repeat these words seemed the safest speech to make just now. "Yes, I have never seen you so lacking in good manners." "Lacking in good manners, sir?" Mr. Leighton frowned. "Do not stand there repeating my words after me like that!" he commanded, indignantly. "What excuse have you to make to me?" "Pardon me, sir, if I seem very stupid.

But you have not told me what I have done to displease you." "I took it for granted that you would know," the older man retorted. "Since you evidently do not, I will tell you. In the first place, you did not open the car door for my guest to get out when she came here to supper." A Poor Excuse "But, sir, Xorah came out for her, and opened the door, too!" "Which was not her place at all, and you should have known it was not. Later, when you arrived to take the ladies home, you stood with your back to me until 1 spoke to you. and then you took our seat instead of waiting to close the car door after we were seated.

"At Mrs. Duffleld's house you sat still and allowed me to open the car door for myself and go up the steps i with Mrs. Duffield. What is your excuse?" "I thought, sir, that you would want to take Mrs. Duffield in yourself." "I did want to.

But you should i have come around and opened the car door for me." I "There is usually a doorman there to do that, sir. "But he was not there to night: Mr. Leighton exclaimed. "Don't be so stupid!" "I am sorry, sir;" I will try to do better another time. I will remember your instructions." "You did not need those Instructions.

Smith," the employer accused. "That was proved by the fact that when reached here just now, vou opened the car door' for me. Tou I Reliable Method of Hair Care I Hair is by far the most conspicuous thing about us and is probably the most easily damaged by bad or careless treatment. If we are very careful in hair washing, we will have virtually no hair troubles. An especially fine shampoo for this weather, one that brings out all the natural beauty of the hair, that dissolves and entirely removes all dandruff, excess oil and dirt, can easily be used at trifling expense by simply dissolving a tea spoonful of canthrox (which you can get at any druggist's), in a cup or hot water.

This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so it is easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just the top of the head. This chemically dissolves all impurities and creates a soothing, coo'ing lather. Rinsing leaves the scalp spotlessly clean, soft and pliant, while the hair takes on the glossy richness of natural color, also a fluffiness which makes it seem much heavier than it is. After canthrox shampoo, arranging the hair is a pleasure. were either very careless to night or your mind was not on your job.

1 advise you to keep it there in the future." "Yes, sir." "Telephone to' Miss Leighton In the morning, by 9 o'clock for your orders for the day," Samuel Leighton added, turning to go into the house. "And, after this, try to think of the work you have to do, and that only." "Very well Good night, sir," the chauffeur replied meekly. "I am sure I don't know what ails the fellow," Leightan complained to his daughter a few minutes later. 1 scored him well, but he did not answer back. He had not been drinkjmg, that was evident.

Had I not seen him at other times I would think that he was a fool. "But perhaps he is in love, which amounts to the same thing," he added with a laugh. His daughter did not smile. "If he is in love, it is with Norah," she said. Then she shook her head impatiently.

"It is absolutely unthinkable!" she declared angrily. Her father shrugged his shoulders. "I don't see just why," he said. "Smith seemed to be a superior kind of chap, to be sure, but when a pretty girl appears one never can tell what change will come over a man's bearing and manners. Of Smith behaved abominably, and I told him so.

Yea, if he is in love, do not be too hard on him or Norah. It is not a sin, you To Be Continued Middletown Standard Steel Officials Inspect Car Co. Plant The employes of the Daily Journal picniced at Hershey park to day. They were taken over in the auto truck of A. H.
