In Which Dan Carson's Feeling for lite Other Woman v Is Explained of iiiitliiijr licr hand Into who HEAD THIS F1KST Julia Grant, a qutt sort of girl, Of an umiMial type of beauty, has been engaged to Dau Careon nearly n jcar, wlieu the brains to worry obout n stead ily Rroulns Indifference on his part. The wedding date has been Ret. but three weeks before she ran stand the agony no longer and decides to ask him what 1h wrong. Finally, Jiilin wrings from Dan the admission that he no longer loves her that there is some one else. Although completely crushed, nhe braelj renounces her claim und re turns Hip pmrnsnTnpnt rlne. On the. day on which she was to hne been married Julia goes forth nlonc in the pouring rain. She meets Martha Blake, ltdvlsPR her to take up nurflng. THEN START THE STOKY rT WOULD be Impossible to Imagine two girls with less In common than Julia Orant and Nancy Cromwell, uan had first met Nancy at a club dance one night when .Julia had been too 111 to go out. She had caught a bad cold ami had gone to bed directly after dinner. but Julia-like she had insisted upon Dan's going just the same, nnd he had met Nancy. From that time he began uncon Aclously to compare the two girls, nnd inasmuch as Nnncy was n far more obvious type, she was much more likely to appeal to n man with ns limited nn imagination as Dnn Carson's. Dan really did not mean very much in Nancy's life Just at first. He was good looking, And she liked conquests, there fore, she was flattered when he began to pay her attention. "When Dan paid his first call nt the Cromwell npnrtment he could not help comparing it with the gloomy old Grant house, and he grew to connect Julia with this house nnd to feel that she was too quiet nnd that she took life too seriously. It was so easy to do this when calling on Nnncy Cromwell. She was so, spirited. o full oJ life, and the living room of the ultrn modern apartment in which Nnncy lived with her father nnd mother was ill ways cheerfully lighted with electricity. Dan grew to drend the thought of the flickering gas Jets in tne urnni mni-i-and Julia beenme more and moie a duty to. him. To do Nancy credit, she had no thought of doing nnj thing wrong when she encouraged Dan's attentions. She did not know Julia, but she linil heard that Dan was engaged. When she thought about Julln at all It was with a sense of pit. Nancy argued that n woman ought to be nble to hold her man nnd If slip couldn't,, why what Was the use of mnrrjlng nnjwn? She f,.,nw.,l In n erent many of Lues's theories, hi fact, u grent mnny souns "I h have such Idens about life. About milnB. for Instance. Nnncy helped (i mt being too particular.

Julia .would ns soon HiuiktM of allowing any chance to tqiuji her lips us she w ould hae uller have thought name. When Dan announced to Julia thnt he no longer lovel her nnd that he wnntcd to be free, there had been n great denl of Ioe-ninklng between him self and Nnncj. Nancy was only nine teen nnd Dnn was twenty-seven. He wns older than most of the bojs who took her nround, nud she thought no more of being serious with him thun she did with nn of the others. Nnncy liked to play with fire without burning her small white lingers. I The night before Julia's scene with) Dnn, Dan tailed on Nnncj and had, .. . tii.l. CJ1.n fH nn tl.t..Ml stirred ncr n nine. " '" ""' different in the way he held her, nnd his kisses frightened her. Finnllj she pulled nwuy from him. ''Dnn, don't kiss me, you mustn't." She protested. "Why not?" he had asked hoarsely. Nnncj, smiled and hung her head pret tily. Now that she wns away from him she did not feel so frightened, lie sides she did not want to offend Dnn. She liked to go nbout with him. "Why, why, Isn't there some one else, Dan? Of course, I know that jou'e been jut having n good time with me. Some one told me that you were engaged." Dan milled her back hi his arms. There was something nbout Nancj thnt nffectcd him as Julia necr hnd. "Do ou care for me?" he whispered against her. "Why, .ic, I do like jou, Dnn, jou know I do," said Nancy, pulling nwnj from him. He let her go and stood regarding her. "Who told jou there was some one cle?" he asked Mnnllj. Nancy snt down in n chnlr nt a safe distance from Dan nnd ruffled the pnges of a book. "I don't remember now, but every one knows. There's no reason why we shouldn't he fi lends, though, is there?" she asked with her throaty lit tle laugh and that backward turn of the head that Dan had grown to loc. Dan looked thoughtful, lie had been trjing for n long time to tell Julia the truth about Nancy, nnd tonight he wns fullj determined to do so. He hnd been earned away bj Nantj, notli- L ing else in the worm innuereu, ami lie was suie thnt mice rid of Julia, Nancy would gic him her promise. After this scene with Julia, Dan for got evcrj thing, In the sense of exultn tlon he felt nt being free. There was to be no wedding in thiee weeks, he was no longer tied to Julia and Nancy was his for the nking. If it had not been after 10 o'clotk, he would have gone j x ........ tl.ni Ha.ii niulif If lie fell , any twinges of conscience at all con- f cerning Julia, he stilled them by tell- i i ing himself that it wns far better to he frank nbout such a thing than to many one woman loving another. He called N'ancj up the next morning and nsked if he could not sec her thnt evening. There wns a huskliiefcs In his oice that he could not control ns I I he talked 10 ncr. tO MARK COLUMBUS DAY Attorney General Palmer to Speak at Academy Meeting With Attorney General Palmer as the orator of the day, Columbus Day will be observed on Monday night, Oc tober 13, with a mass-meeting in the Academy of Music, The Invitation to speak wns ex tended to Mr. Palmer by n committee, repreentlng the Knights of Columbus In charge of nrranglng a memorable cele New England Women to Meet I, ration nf lh JPTHi -. nnU-rranrv nf the The PhllauVblllla ColOnV of tllC Na- discovery of America.
