It musi bo said, now- And So They Were Married Episode Ttvo (Each Other's Friends) By HAZEL DEYO BATCUELOR CopvrtflM. 1918, bu ruWe Ledger Co. CHAPTER XVIII LONG after AHco had left the house, j accompanied by Scott, Ruth lay rigidly in bed, her brain a seething whirl. Sho had heard them go out together, but, of course, she had not heard what was said before they left. The fact that Scott thought It necessary to see Alice safely home made Ruth nngrler than ever. He had not been so so licitous of her the night he had gone out and left her to shift for herself, but Alice was so much more attractive and so much mor'o likely to be spoken to than Ruth was that of course there was more of a reason In her case. "I hate her; I hato her," Ruth said savagely over and over again to herself. And then, "I wish I could do something to make Scott appreciate me, to get even with him, but what cart I do?" Hcr thoughts went something like this: I wish I didn't havo to be hero when 1-' comes back, but where could I go? 1 could no home I" But that thought occurred to .her only to be hastily put inm Hia hack of her mind. She could just Imagine her mother's eyes and her nnih.r' milct manner suggesting, I to'd you so," when sho arrived at the apartment at 9 o'clock at night. In the condition of most motlon-plcturo wives who go homo to mother. It was too ridiculous. No, Bhe could never go home, that was certain. Where elso could sho go? Was there any one she knew who would not think It strange If she appeared casually at this tlmo of night for a call? She cudgeled her brains In vain for a single soul. Her friends wero all too conven .1 i Th. Vinrrllv knew what It was to go anywhere at night without their husbands. She. could imagine Isabel Carter, for Instance. Isabel's well-bred indifference and hcr Inward wonder, and then possibly her conversation with Bill after Ruth had gone. "I guessithlngg aren't going smoothly with Ruth and Scott. Too bad, lsnt it. Something must be wrong to account for her coining over here like this., And then Bill's remark, "Oh, well, I ulwajs said that Scott naymonu queer duck." M Ruth know mat ui ,mu uium ... queer Ruth realized, 'perhaps for the n-.i .i,r, timf icrv minute, that Bhe could not consider Isabel Carter, the ciri vim lmri Ktood -ud for most Btrenu- ously when friendship had been dls-1 cussed between herself and Scott time nnd time agalp, a real friend; not a friend to whom she could go In trouble nnd expect to understand. Isabel would dislike being shaken out of her well planned and well-ordered existence. Isa bel would dislike tho turbulence of a friendship that required too much In the matter of understanding and difficult things like that. ' Ttnii, at mi in bed again when she had arrived this far in her thoughts. It was true then, she hadn't a single person to confide in ; not a single friend to go to in trouble, and her mother had been the very first person she had de cided against. Was this all that llfo had to offer her? Was this all that friend ship consisted ot? And then.

How had she chosen her friends? From what stand point? What was a friend worth who was not capable of friendship In time of trouble? She thought BUddcnly of Betty Lambert. Of Geno Mathews.

Sho cut hoi self voluntarily off from hcr old manner of living, from her people and her old home, and adopted Instead a new family, tho family of her husband. Of course the husband was the real family; for seldom could a wife accept the other members of It. In a few short weeks she had grown Into her life, she had forgotten that there ever was an other. Sho depended entirely upon her husband, one man, for happiness. What a frail pleco of protection against the entire world. And yet, It was true of nearly every married woman she knew. Perhaps women did not realize it until they were confronted with it as she had been jtonlght, but, realizing It as sho did, what was to bo dono about It? She was certain that this was tho end ; things could nover again bo the samo between Scott and herself. And yet how many other women aro there in tho world who decide that very thing after tho first quarrel, and after every quarrel ever after? It Is human nature, and above nil, feminine nature, to make mountains out of piolehllhj; to declaro that nev er again will things be tho same, and then to tako up life agAln after things have settled themselves. Every woman likes to bo traglo; there Is a certain amount of satisfaction In it: there is alwaj's a certain relief in agonizing over something, and this at titude Is hardest for the average man to understand.
