"That's what Mrs. Ilrander says about Helen. People are talking about Helen's marrying Jim. Now, people are talking; because I am not playing the social game with you. You told tne onco that It was what our marriage stood for that mattered and not any of the frivolous essentials." "we'l, you cared enough about the fixings at one time " "Oh, I know I did, dear," Ruth said, softly. "Wo argue so much lately need we quarrel tonight?" Instantly Jack softened. He held out his arms lo Iluth, and when she did not creep Into them In tho way she Used to, ho drew her up against him and held her tenderly. Sho lay against his shoul der, her ej-es closed, trying to adjust matters for herself. Of late she had dono nothing but settle problems other people's problems but how hard It was to settle her nwn Jack stooped over her and kissed het-H hair. Sho did not raise her face to htm, and finally ho put his hand under her chin and lifted her face to his. "Understand dear," he said softly, "I don't care for these social affairs, but I do think you nre tiring yourself out so that you won't be able to enjoy any thing when we go away." "Oh, yes I shall," Ruth said, forcing a smile. "I'm happier than I've been In a long time now. Just doing this work and feeling that I'm getting some where." "And what about being happy because of our marriage? Doesn't that count as much?" "Of course, Jack," and when he stoop ed to kiss her, she met his lips lightly and twisted her chin away. It was pe culiar with her of late, this decided aversion to anything personal. She would talk animatedly of anything con cerning her work : of tho war In a broad sense, of the boys In Prance, of people they knew, but sho evaded whenever possible mention of the coming marriage although when forced Into the subject she answered questions and assented to any minor detail that Jack present ed to her for approval. It was begin ning to worry Jnck more than he cared to admit.
