HEAD THIS mtST
After a man has definitely broken
with a girl, and has asked her to re
lease! him from their engagement,
what docs she owe to him if he asks
her to take him back? .lulla flrnnt
.faced this question after Dan Carson
had told her he loved another woman.
Julia had gone into a hospital to try
vand forget her hurt in hard work,
and linn in tho meantime had found
that the other woman was only play
ing with him. Julia's first wild grief
1ind torment of mind were oer and
i,ht felt that Dan needed her. She
felt, too, that she still loved him, and
u lio gae him her promise for the
iecond time.
NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY
j'T WAS in this frame of mind with
I- Dick Nugent constantly waylaying
her for a possible flirtation, with Grace,
Ifcrritt stealing around the place in
obvious disgrace and as white a9 death,
aud with her own feelings upset and
llmost terrifying in their strangeness,
Mint Julio first met Dan's suggestion
Chat sho plan to give up her work and
let married immediately.
It was at the house one evening and
t"te two wcro sitting In tbo stiff, gloomy
lick parlor. Julia had grown to have
0. certain dread of these evenings with
JDan and because sho did not understand
Iiersilf she felt like a criminal. It was
all right when Lucy nnd one of her
friends dropped in and they all chatted
Together, but tho moment Julia and Dan
Were left alono together Julia began
h be nervous.
Conversation had languished between
iflicra Uils evening when Dan suddenly
fcpoke.
"Don't you think we'd better como
to sonic understanding, Julia?"
Julia Btartcd guiltily. "What do
you mean?"
"I mean nbout our relations. We
haVen't discussed anything about our
taarrlago; we haven't made nny plans
and wo haven't talked about jour giving
up your work at the hospital."
.""Giving up my work? I didn't know
there was any question about that."
"But you knew it must come some
time."
.'Julia was silent.
"Didn't jou?"
"I really hadn't thought about it,
Dan."
Dan was silent a moment, nnd when
ho spoke again there was an aggrieved
tone in his voice.
"Well, jou will when we decide on
the date for tho wedding." Dan had
hesitated about speaking of the date for
the wedding. He knew so well that any
memory of n wedding day would bo
linplcnsant for Julia, and that he would
lip in anjthljig but a favorable light.
"Tact's make it soon." He said inn
pulsivily, "There is no reason why wo
should wait."
Julia was thinking quickly. She did
not want to hurry the marriage. Sho
could not think of marrjtng until her
mind was more at ease about matters
than it was at present. This time
wien xlic set her wedding da, there
nliist be no mistake.
"There is no reason why we should
lutrrj lnnttern," julia said finally.
Dan- looked at her in surprise. Julia
who hud always acceded to him in
everything was actualy setting up her
will against his. Once sho had been
willing to do anything ho wanted her
to do. Well, ho supposed he had him
self to thank for her present attitude,
for the change in her nature, and he
must be patient no matter what it cost
him. He loed Julio, he wanted her
more tjian anything in the world. It
had cost him a great deal to discover
the fact, but he w as sure of it now.
Dan gulped down a desiro to press
her, to try and persuade her to his way
of thinking, but something told him
that It would not bo wise nnd he re
frained. "All' right, dear, it will be just when
yoifsay. I don't want to hurry you,

although jou know I want you. dear.
You must know that. You trust me,
don't jou? You belie c me?"
Julia lifted her hcay lashes and
looked at Dau out of beautiful serious
eyes. Sho saw his boyish face stirred
with emotion: there was a look of pain
in his eyes. Sho felt n sudden sense of
pity rush ocr her and with it n desiie
to mother him. With a sudden impulse
sho leaned over and touched her check
to his softly. "Of course, dear," she
murmured.
He caught her close to him and she
lay quiet, her head against his shoulder.
They did not speak for a time, then he
said.
"About jour work? '
Sho stirred. "Yes?"
"You're not going on with it. Why
I hardly ever see you, nnd when I do
you're all tired out, or you have to get
back early. We never go anywhere.
It's not fair to me."
Something tightened nrouud Julia's
heart and sho lost tho feeling of tender
ness that she had felt for him a moment
ago. This was tho selfish Dan speak
ing, the Dan who thought onlv of him
self. This was the side of Dan that
simply had not existed for her until
ho told liir that he loved another
woman.
