I Their Married Life;
: By MABEL HERBERT URNER J
"He didn't say when he'd be back
■—he didn't leave any message?" per
sisted Helen. "Hello: Oh, Central,
DON'T cut me off! Hello And
you haven't any idea where I might
get him now? Well, give me the
number and I'll try, John 1734?"
At any other time Helen would
have hesitated to call up Warren at
another lawyer's office but now she
was desperate—she must reach him!
"Hello, is this John 1734? Could
.Jou tell me if Mr. 'Warren Curtis is >
there? His stenographer said hel
might possibly be in your office."
Helen waited breathlessly, and the!
next moment Warren's voice camel
over the wire in a gruff "hello."
"Oh. I'm so glad I caught you!"
excitedly. "Dear, what do you think
• —Louise and Bob are to be married at
three o'clock! She just phoned me
It's after eleven now. How soon can
you get here? They want us to come
ri.:ht over."
"But, Warren, you MUST come!"
desperately. "Bob would never for
give you. why the whole family
"You know I couldn't go without
you. How would that look?
"Now, dear, we haven't anything to
do with that-—the least we can do is
to BE there! Bob has phoned to Car
rie and to your father and mother—
they're all going! Warren, you must
come—you MUST!"
It ended by Warren saying grudg
ingly that he'd come if he could, but
that he couldn't get up before 1.30
and if he wasn't there by, that time
for her to go alone. Hut Helen felt
that he would come. Bob was his!
brother—whatever his antagonism to
I /oulse.
For the next two hours, Helen was i
in a flutter of thrilled anticipation,
mingled with anxious concern.
A Mystery *
What had precipitated this hurried >
ceremony? Louise had intimated over!
the phone that there had been a scene;
the night before, verging on one of i
their old misunderstandings, and she
had threatened to return to Florida, i
Instead, they were to be married this
afternoon.
That Bob had wanted to wait un-1
til he was quite well so they might!
have a formal wedding and a trip I
abroad, Helen knew, but she knew
too that ever since he had left the!
hospital the situation between Louise 1
and him bad been most difficult.
y «. Regardless of gossip and the dis- j
Approval of his whole family, Louise
had insisted on staying at his hotel j
and had helped to nurse him. So tliisi
hurried wedding was not after all so!
unexpected.
Helen was much too excited to eat;
any lunch, and by one o'clock she was
dressed, waiting anxiously for Warren. I
If he shouldn't come!
He came, but in a scowling ill-hu-1
mor.
"What's all this for?" glowering at
the two suits spread out on his bed.
"Dear I didn't know what you want- j
ed to wear—your frock coat or cut-1
n way. What do men wear at an in-1
I'ormal day-wedding?"
"I'll tell you what I'll wear," with
n snort, "just what I have on!"
"But dear, it's Bob's wedding!"
"Huh, Bob had infernally little to
do with it. He'd have had a civil
ized wedding—this is her doings. Sup
pose if he'd let her she'd have dis
pensed with the ceremony altogether."
"WARREN!"
"Well these advanced, new-ideaed
women are capable of most anything.
Put it on a high and mighty plat
form too."
"Now dear, don't, PLEASE don't
begin that! Just for to-day, do try to
be nice to her—for Bob's sake. It'll
only be for a few moments and you
may not have to see them again for
months. Won't you be—nice?" she
ended weakly, for want of a better
word.
Warren's only answer was a non
committal grunt.
In spite of Helen's pleading, he ob
stinately refused to change his j
clothes, and when they started out a
few moments later he wore his gray
business suit, with an almost bel
ligerent air.
"Where's this stunt to be pulled
off?" he demanded, as they took the
car at the corner.
Tlie Wedding Place
"Louise said the management had
given them a vacant suite—on the
same floor with her rooms."
"Humph, why don't they go down
to the City Hall and be done with
it?"
It was after two when they reached
the hotel. Helen went straight to
Louise's rooms.
The sitting room was littered with
boxes and tissue paper, and a hotel
maid was busily packing a quantity
of expensive looking lingerie into a
new wardrobe trunk.
In the bedroom Louise was hur
riedly thrusting some toilet articles
Into n fitted traveling bag. She wore
the same blue tailored suit and hat
In which she had come from Florida.
"Did Warren come?" as she greeted
Helen with a tremulous kiss.
"Yes, he's gone to Bob's room."

THURSDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH » MAY 21, 1914
"I'm glad," simply. "None of the
others have come yet. and I can see
that Bob cares—dreadfully. Here's a
telegraph from my father. He wants
us to come on to Palm Beach—but
Bob's not able to go that far."
Shall I leave the tissue paper in
these sleeves, main?" as the maid
too!; from a box a shimmering eve-
gown, with soft tulle draplngs.
es I,o —oh. I don't know—pack
it any way. Only hurry, we've only
half an hour more." Then in answer
to Helen's unspoken question. "Oh,
I bought them this morning—while
Bob went down for the license. I
went over to Ardman's and had one
of their shoppers go around with me.
I don't suppose a woman ever bought
a trousseau in an hour and a half be
fore. I hadn't intended to get any
thing—then I was afraid I—l wouldn't
feel quite like a bride."
Here the phone rang, and she turn
ed to answer it.
"Hello! Yes, I'm all reacy. We'll
come in right away. It's Bob," turn
ing from the phone. "They're waiting
for us now—across the hall."
The Last Moments
Her hands trembled as she hur
riedly drew on her gloves. Helen
stood by helplessly. At the last mo
ment she wanted to say something to
Louise—but as always, when deeply
moved, the words would not come.
Silently she buttoned the glove that
Louise held out to her. but her own
hands were almost as tremulous.
Neither of them spoke as they went
across the hall.
The smiling hotel maid was jn at
tendance at the door. Hearing voices
in the front room, Louise stood for a
moment clinging to Helen before they
entered. Bob, Warren and the minis
ter were there. Bob game forward,
greeted Helen, and put his arm about
Louise with a bantering:
"This young lady was about to elude
me again—so 1 decided this was the
only way to keep her. It didn't give
us time for a wedding with frills, but
I guess we don't need the ," looking
down at her tenderly.
There was a stir at the door and
Carrie and her husband entered, fol
lowed by Mr. and Mrs. Curtis.
Louise's face lit up as she saw
them and Helen realized how much
she had wanted his people to come—
for his sake.
The greetings were slightly strained,
and the situation would have been
awkward had not Bob quickly nodded
to the minister, who stepped forward.
It was all very simple. The cere
mony, which was exceedingly brief,
was over in less than three minutes.
Then came the confusion of con
gratulations. Helen was glad to see
Warren stoop over and kiss Louise
with at least a show of warmth.
Carrie kissed her, too; a formal,
frigid kiss, and Mr. and Mrs. Curtis
were almost as unbending.
Painful Minutes
The next fifteen minutes were pain
fully strained. Bob keenly sensitive
to the cold disappro-al of his family,
tried to carry things off with a forced
gayety. Then lxiuise escaped to get on
her wraps. Helen went with her,
helped tie on her long veil and put
the last few things into her hand-bag.
Her trunk had already been taken
down.
"Dear, don't let it spoil your day,"
whispered Helen. "They were almost
as bad at my wedding. It's there na
ture to hp antagonistic."
Louise did not answer, but as she
drew down her veil, Helen saw that
her eyes were filled with indignant
tears.
Down stain, to avoid a starting
crowd, the cabs awaited them at a
side entrance. Bob and Louise had
the first cab, on top of which was
their baggage. Mr. and Mrs. Curtis
the second, and Helen and Warren
were with Carrie and Lawrence in the
third.
Helen gazed out the cab window
and made no effort at conversation.
She was hoping desperately that there
would not be another strained awk
ward wait at the station.
But fortunately the train was al
ready made up and there was time
for only the most hurried good-bys
"Oh, be very, very good to her,"
whispered Helen tremulously as she
kissed Bob.
' Don't worry," gripping her hand.
"It's, going to be all right. I'm going
to make up »o her for a whole lot."
A moment later they were waving
good-by from the observation car.
"Well, they're hitched up—didn't
take long," was Warren's comment as
thej walked back through the station
"Oh, Warren, don't—when it's all so
serious!"
"Well If we all took marriage too
seriously, It would look so darned
Berious to soire of us—we might want
to quit. Here, what rar do you take?
I've got to bustle back to the office."
