I'M u Ik . &; -- I! ef nrf So They Were Married By UAZEL DFA'O RATCIIELOR Copyright. 111, ov Putlla Ledger Co. RUTH decided wisely to pretend en tire disinterest In the matter. She tola Scott Innocently enough that she hd hesitated about ipeaklng plainly he foro her mother. "Mother would have Warned you," she, splalned. "Sho disapproved ot niy bo Inc t nil If you wilt remember." Which was quite true. Scott wondered If nuth teally caied o little about the thine or It she were ohanfrlnir. He. Warned himself bitterly for the part ho had played In tho mat- ter. Somehow ha felt estranged fiom j Ruth. Sho wan ncjt the klnu cr a woman lo play the enmo of lntrlsuc. Ruth was no femato vamplra or nnv thine; of that kind. Sho was n healthy, normal Bill: she was a product of well-to-do parents, carefully nurtured, carefully brought up and with n. mld-Vlctorlan mother as mi example Therefore, too quick an ab sorption t.f present-day feminism would, ba quite likely to leae Ituth dlalllu sloned and silently calloui. Scott had been too young- to realize this at first. Take any girl from an aerage home, a girl who has never had to work. Marry har In tho conventional way to a man with different Ideas about wemen, a man who through contact with women In a comradely fashion In the shell-torn vil lages of France, has formed a different Ideal of friendship, and who without much explanation or preamble ha. tried Iheso Ideals on his wife by acceptiriB neror(.anza1,01! aro sl)l KolB 0 with ' pretty much as another man. ''' '""cc their work. 5oii know, with the army of worn., had had no .lm."to be feminine ....., .iihair save in rneir Keener iericiiiu'i ability to bo tender. I And hero was Ituth, Just such a girl, plunged Into a totally different tlto from the ono phe had been living, Hero she was glxen credit for qualities sho did not possess. Hero sho was struggling to meet Scott's Ideals, making mistakes, nuarrellng because she tried f-o desper ately lo save her pride, nnd she was silll unconvinced underneath. She did not want to be treated like a comrade. Sho did not want always to be logical and reasonable; she wanted to be worn ini.lv not essentially womanly: she wanted to be petted and spoiled and made a lot of, and she wanted all these attentions to como from Scott. Most r.f all sho wanted Scott all to herself, and Inasmuch as she felt that he could not see things her waj. sho was struggling hard to adopt his ways, nnd was not en Joying It at nil. Furthermore, there arc some women who cannot have men friends aside from their husbands. With Ruth It was Impossible to be Platonic, to be merely friendly. Her lovo for Scott had deepened her entire nature, but It had left her moro defenseless toward other men than sho .had ever been before In her lite. There was an Irresistible ap peal about her that was moro than friendly. In tho ordinary relationships of life, friendships shared with Sco't for Instance, this would net be so noticeable, but a friendship, like the one Bhe had with Nick Carson, had a personal qual ity that was dangerous. . It was Ruth herself who urged Scott to go out the week following tho one In wldch ao much had happened. They had grown to tacitly agreo on one evening during the week when Scott could feel freo to go where he liked. Ruth never played a part on those evenings. She never wanted u free evening, us Scott did. She never wanted to bo entirely i free to do as sho liked, but sho felt that she had to pretend that ehe did In order to save her pride. What a pitiful little 'farce It was ! The conversation began casually. Ruth aid at dinner pleasantly enough. "Have you some nice plans for tonight?" "So. Supposo vou and I go to a show. We haven't been since I'vo been up." " couldn't tonight, Scott. I have an engagement." This had been thought up on the spur of the moment. SK weeks back it would have been Impossible for Ruth to be so casually untruthful. "When did ou make It?" Scott asked Impulsively. "Let me see." Ruth pretended that ah'e was trying to remember bad;, and nhe did It well. "Oh, I don't know Just when, several days back." She made no effort to tell him frankly what It was nnd she hoped he would not ask. Sho hated to tell a direct Ho; the other was not so bad. But Scott did not aRk. Ho thought a great deal Instead, nnd suspected things that ho blamed himself for afterward. Where was tho boasted trust and faith that ho had alwajs had? What was happening to his relationship to Ruth. Was It possible that he was descending to no low a thing as Jealousy and dis trust? If Ruth could have seen Scott later that evening wandering disconsolately around the street sho would have been well repaid for that very first night when she herself had not known what to do vvlth herself; that first night after her marriage when Scott had left her alono and she had realized for the first tlmo how completely a married woman who desperately loves her own husband cuts herself off deliberately and entirely v....- v .......". . I frdni all ties tnat nem ner to peopio do fore marriage. Everj married woman knows this. After sho has been married a. day or a week, she Is looked upon dif ferently b" all her friends and relatives. Sho Isn. married woman and Bhe cannot go back to her glrlhopd. Nothing appealed to Scott as a possi ble amusement. He did not want to run In on hlB friends, ho thought of going to u. show, but what Is moro desolate than a shpw alone, and lie wasn't In the mood to asic any ono 10 ho vm. ....... j (In the next chapter Ruth has some I reflections on life in icnernl.)
