AND HERE IT CONTINUES
THE smart nurse who had been en
gaged to look after him (her husband
absolutely refused to consider the pos
i-twntr of the baby being n girl) tcr
'rifled her already; she knew that she
would hardly be allowed to do a thing
i.. h. hnbv herself; the wonderful
nursery with Its many up-to-date np.
ointments made her shiver; apparently
the baby's life was to be worKcu Dy n

iirefor her; she had discovered that
the best way to keep harmony between
jhem was to never enter into a discus-
con ot any mnu.
. Sho talked nwny cheerily dur n
lonch; she had a. horror that some day
Ralph would be bored with her; slnco
.her maiMagc she had seen so many
tiarricd couples who were unashamedly
ind openly bored with one another s

'anything about It to him.
."Every enc doesn't marry for lovr,

When she came to examine her emo

she knew that she felt llKc a ucggnr gin

the little house of which she had
dreamed. , , ,..
Ralph ought to have married Jill;
tuln and ngnln the thought would rise
in her mind ; Jill would have made him
a splendid wife.
lint Jill had married Henry Sturgess,
end Henry bturgess had been old enough
to he her father: that at lenst had been
no love match.
A maid knocked at the door
"Mrs. Sturgess, If you please Mnd
amc," and Jill walked Into the room.
Kathy started up, her pale face Hush
ing. She had hardly had n moment
with her sister Inst night; now they
were alone, she forgot all 'the little
Mltfness and the brendi which her mar
riage had caused ; she rushed to J1U and
fiunr herself into her nrms.
"Oh, I am so glad to sec jou 1 ami
so glad."
She laughed nnd cried together in her
old emotional way; she kissed Jill
again nnd again as if she could not
make enough of her; she tried to ex
plain nnd apologize and ask for for
giveness nil in n breath, till Jill gently
stopped her.
"Let's forget it nil I don't
jrant to remember It." She looked at
Kathy's henutifuj face with tender
tyes. "1 had to oomo; I never had a
word with you last night and there nre

Her father had stormed from another

"The man's n fortune hunter; it'a not
jou ho wants nt all. but your money
to pay his debts Not one penny
of mine docs he get "
"Which won't break his heart or
mine." his daughter responded un
moved. Thanks to a deceased and
wealthy godmother, Klricn could afford
to qunrrcl with her father; she had
more thnn sufficient money of her own
to make it worth while: but sho had
never been so unhappy In nil her life
ns she was during thc night following
her cneneement.
He had never even kissed her nppnr
ently lind not wished to kiss her
the thought rankled nnd hurt un-prnk-nbly.
She rang Tnllentyre up in .the morn

mother had refused lo cnngnituhite her.
lie frowned nt th flippancy of her
voice.
"Perhaps they nr wi'e." he mid
hardly.
Klricn laughed: ni.l,"(l.v would have
guessed from her laugh ihnt there were
tears in her eyes.
"Perhaps so," she agrted, There was
a little pause, then
"I think jou'il better trot to'ind to

tea. He stalled as he hung up
the receiver: he supposed thnt for all
the rest of his life he would have to
dance nttcudiiuce on this woman,
He thought of Jill, and wished he
hndjiot seen her In-t nUht he thought
of tilt past, nnd would have given his
soul to have hud it over again.
He ftinde n poor pretense- of lunch
lag, nnd fell asleep afterward in Ills
chair. It was -I o'clock when his man
roused him and reminded him that lie
was due at l.ndy Ulrica's for tea.
Tallcntyrc swore: his head was split

grace, mid drank a neat brandy before.
he went out. Ills mnn wished to order
a taxi for him. but Tnllentyre refused;
the air would do him good, he xnld.
He walked down the street slowly;
he d'd not want to see Klricn again
he dreaded meeting her father and
mother, and receiving their lukewarm
coiiKiatulutloiiK.
I.ifu was a horrible thing to him that
day It scorned so purposeless, nml then
then It seemed piirposrlesN no more
as he turned the corner of the street
and cnine face to face with Jill.
The hot blood rushed to his temples
for a moment his usual sang-froid
deserted him. ,
Jill flushed a little, too, but she was
quite self-composed.
"I've Just been to tea with Kath,"
she said gaily. "And she told me the
news I must congratulate
you, though I really thought you had
been engaged for ever so long " nhe
