that ttuth had ecr looked forward to.
Tho contemplation of it filled her with
'expectant thrills, and only occas on.illy
-u was sho a little bit undecided as to Just
how to proceed She hated to ask Helen
what she had done, and now that bcott
had not seen fit to approve sho hebl
tatid to talk it oer with him fcho
wanted Scott to feel that sense of equal
ity that had surged through her ever
slnco her decision. When sho was .1
waco earner there would be so much
more in their lives; they would hac so
much more In common.
nt. Tn,i inrwi liirckeil the news and
was properly impressed. In fffet, sho
was plainly lionllltci
This is Scott's doing, of course."
Ruth shook her head. "No, mother,
It Isn't."
"Of course, it Is natural for jou to
defend him, but I know better. You
. never liad any of theeo ideas when ou
' were at home."
"Why should jou object to my doing
It? Helen Townsend is working; I
could name plenty of girls who went to
' collo o with me who are doing things."
"Ubten to me, Ituth; ou cannot con
ngo me that what ou nxo doing Is
right, and If Scott allows jou to go on
with It and encourages you, I .shall bo
K sorry you eer married him."
"MoJIier, you don't UKe Scott: ou

"'jitm and you'so made things hard for
mo In many wajs slnco I'o been mar

this resolution, because jou hae tried
to make me discontented with life as

held up other girls as models to mo;

It not oponl', at leabt jou hao sug

mado up mv mind now, and I'm going
to do this thing In splto of what any
ono sajs"
In consequenco of this conversation
Mrs. How land was prostrated in bed
with, ono of her headaches for three -days.
Until had .rather expected every one
to admire her for her stand, and she
was disappointed. Helen Townsend,
whom bho called up on the telephone,
was busy and could not talk just then,
but sho nsked Ilulh to coma down to
lunch nnil talk matters oer.
Ruth was angry at Helen's disinclina
tion to chat oer the telephone, but
after reasoning tho matters out, decided
' that, of course, It was duo to oIlTco
routine, nnd met Helen at tho place
designated. Acioss the table sho Impart
ed h6r news. Somehow she had Imag
ined Helen to be Instantly a qhampion
' of her cause. Instead sho asked:
"What does Scott think?"
Ituth was taken aback.
"Why, what on earyi did jou ask me
that question for?
"Well, what does he think?"
"Ho doesn't approve; but, then. I
didn't expect him to ; nusbands wouldn't "
"Scott would If he thought jou could
do It, you know It."
"Don't you think I can do It? You
act so strange about the whole thing,
as If you didn't pproo jourself.
You're always talking about careers for
women."
IUtth'B tone was hurt and Indignant.
At eeVy turn she had been disappointed
in the way people had taken her newc,
and to have Helen so disinclined to ap-
prove was the last straw.
"I do approve of careers for women,
but j-ou're married, Ituth, and, after all'
dear what could you do?" '
(In the next Installment Helen admit,
her disapproval and tells Itutli why.)
