" When a Girl Marries"
Br ANN LISLE
A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
Chapter CI.
I awoke with a quick Jerk. All
the details of my ugly quarrel with
Jim tho night before came trooping
back to my mind In a mass. Almost
before I peered over the cover? I
knew I should find Jim's bed empty,
but at the actual sight of it my
heart began thumping with emotions
of anger and pain. Anger triumphed.
With set lips and heart as tightly
folded against any gentle feelings, I
got up and set about preparing for
my bath. For the first time since
our marriage I found myself uncom
promisingly angry with Jim. Gener
ally I took sides against myself and
saw his side of things. But now
it was different. Simulated or real,
his Jealousy of my friend Anthony
Norreys was outrageous, unforgiv
able.
In my sore heart I suspected that
it was because he knew he had given
me so much cause for jealousy and
distrust that Jim had jumped in and
acted as if I Jiad offended him.
"He heat me to it!" I srtecred to
myself with terse and pungent
wrath. I did not go near the living
room until I had finished dressing
and was ready to set the breakfast
table.
Then, at sight of Jim. I stopped
and braced myself against the rush
of my own feelings. He had
tumbled down among the cushions
of the couch like a tired child. And
he lay snuggled into a closs heap,
warming his knees against the
cold by folding them almost up to
his chin. I got a cover and put it
over him. Then, because I couldn't
keep the tears from my eyes, I folded
my lips tighter than ever; my own
tender, traitor emotions must not
betray me.
Jim woke at sound of my stirring
about, muttered a good morning and
disappeared into the bed room.
When he appeared again he carried
his hat and overcoat.
"Won't stop for my breakfast," he
said, avoiding my eyes. "Oh, Jim—
you'll be sick—take your coffee"—

MONDAY EVENING, HJtRRISBURG tdSßfe TELEGRAFBi .FEBRUARY 3, 1919.
I began. Just then the bell rang.
Jim stepped back and I answered.
At the door stood a little boy with
a big package.
"Collar, Wesson and Company," he
announced in a piping child's voice.
"Collect eighteen dollars and sev
seventy-flve cents."
"Collar, Wesson" —I began— "I
didn't buy anything."
"Ain't you Mrs. H. H. Harrison?"
piped little Mercury again.
"Yes."
"Well, it's for you, all right. Col
lect eighteen dollars and seventy-five
cents."
Then I remembered. It was my
Canteen Uniforms and the caps and
aprons, I had ordered tho week be
fore.
"Jim, will you let me have twenty
dollars?" I asked—hating to break
our silence with a request for
money.
"Havent* it," he muttered.
I turned back to tme boy.
"We don't seem- to have the
money, this morning, son. I'l have
to rush around to the bank and cash
a chreck. Can you come back later?"
"Not to-day, Ma'am. Against the
rules. Be back tomorrow. Better
have the cash then —cause we only
make two or three stops like this,"
said the boy, his wizened young face
wrinkling into a worldly-wise grin.
"I wouldn't have asked for the
money," 1 explained, closing the
door and turning to Jim with an
check doesn't seem to reach as well
as it used to, and I've only a dollar
or two left till the fifteenth of the
month, when the next one is due."
Jim laughed in cutting fashion.
"Sure, I know," he twisted out of
the side of his mouth. "The minute
a man begin to earn a bit of money
his women folks blow it in. I sup
pose you expect me- to make good
your bluff to that kid about having
a check cashed. Well, I haven't any
spare change myself. And eighteen

to that silly canteen is sheer non
sense."
"But what can I do, Jim?'.' I cried
in a sort of panic.
Jamming his hat down on his
head with a gesture of nervous
fierceness, Jim lunged toward the
door, crying as he strode past me:
"Do anything you jolly well like.
Only don't nag me any more. I
can't spare the money, I tell you.
It's just like a woman to go whim
pering I around about some fool
clothes she doesn't even need when
her husband's all tired out and has
his mind full of really important
things. 4
This Jam who was snarling and
snapping at me didn' tseem any one
knew. I gathered myself for an
effort to banish .him and to bring
back my own husband. Forcing
myself to forget for the moment
our ugly scene of the night before,
banishing my own haunting sus
picions, I urried across the room,
placed myself between Jim and the
door, and laid my hand on his coat
sleeve.
"Jiml'l! phone and tell them i
don't need the uniforms. I can make,
the one I have do by washing it my
self between my days of service.
Don't go without your breakfast.
And don't—dash into business ven
tures without consulting your—part
ner."
Jim stared at me for a moment
sulkily. Then the old look came
into his eyes. But he smiled, and
flung down his overcoat.
"You're a pretty good scout, Anne
—about some things. Now we'll
drink a peace-cup of coffee and
keep, off ticklish subjects. I'll put
you wise to my business plans in
good time —be working on 'em again
to-night while you're cantecning.
Only remember one thing. I'll stand
for no gallivanting with Norreys." '
A lump came into my troat. An
thony Norreys was coming to the
canteen tat very day. Must I re
new the quarrel I had just glossed
over? Must I tell Jim?

Saved Hun Prisoners
From Starvation
By Associated Press
Washington, Feb. 3, Interesting
details of life in a German prison
camp were given In a report to the
Navy Department by Chief Gunner's
Mate James Delaney, of Maiden, Mass.,
one of the first men of the United
States Navy to be captured by the
enemy. Delaney and four other mem
bers of the armed guard of the steam
ship Campana were taken prisoner

been sunk by the U6l. With Delaney
were: Boatswain's Mate Kay Roop,
Boyne City, Mich:; Gunner's Mate
Charles I* Kline, Reading, Pa., and
Seamen William A. Miller, Chicago,

at the Brandenburg prison camp from
starvation —the fate that befell hun
dreds of Russian prisoners.
THE HEART BREAKER
A REAL AMERICAN LOVE STORY
By VIRGINIA TERUDNE VAN DE WATER
Chapter XXXV.
One of the peculiarities of a selfish
person is that when she has made
a loved one acutely uncomfortable
she is willing, even eager, to be on
friendly terms. And she feels that
tender words and blandishments
should eradicate all memory of harsh
anl unkind awow wafftsamfk fafb
and unkind speeches.
Therefore, when Honora Bitant
burst into tears after telling her
sister what she was determined to
know, Mildred felt that she could
afford to be magnaimous.
"Why, you poor dear!" she ex- j
claimed, springing from the bed and j
switching on the electric light, "I
did not mean to make you un
happy! Are you so wretched at
the thought that I am going to get
engaged'!"
"Why should that make mo un
happy?" demanded Honora, drying
her eyes.
"Because it will lead to our part
ing later," Mildred explained, sur
prised that her sister had not con
sidered this evenuality. "But, even
so, we will see a good deal of eacll
other after I am married."
"I had not looked forward as far
as that," Honora remarked dryly.
"It seems d bit like counting chick
ens before they are hatched, Milly.
You are certainly anticipating rather
fast, aren't you?"
"Then what made you cry?" Milly
insisted.
"I was tired, and you were so
utterly unreasonable and jealous
that I lost my temper!" Honora
retorted. "Since you must have the
truth, there it is!"
Not an Idea, a Pact.
"I jealous!" Mildred scoffed.
"What a ridiculous idea!"
"It is not only an idea, it is a
fact," Honora rejoined. "You are
not jealous now, because I have told
you once more how Arthur feels
about you. But you were jealous
this morning when I got a letter
from him, and again a while ago
when you learned I had gone walk
ing- with him. It was not until I
informed you just why he wrote to

me, and just what he wanted to
talk to me about that you conde
scended to be civil to me."
"Why, Honora!" Mildred "ex
claimed. "How cross you are!"
"Yes, am," the other acknowl
edged. "And I have cause to be.
You do as you please, and tell me
only what you want to tell me. Yet
when I pursue the same course there
is a row."
"I did not row—only I was hurt,
because I had thought that Arthur
was more fond of me than of you—
and then all at once he behaved as
if he wasn't."
"You did not trust him enough
to believe in him when he wrote
your sister an innocent note!' Hon
ora accused. "Oh, Milly—that is a
poor way to begin life with a man
you are supposed to love."
Mildred laughed. "Oh, well, you
see, I don't really love him yet, but
I like him better than any other
man. And he likes me so much
that I guess I'll learn to sare for
him."
"Then, if you do not love him, I
do not see why you should be jeal
ous of him."
"Perhaps ' I'm a naughty little
doggie in the manger," Mildred
laughed again. "Anyway, since Ar
thur's coming to-night, I'Jl dress
up and look nice for him."
Which she proceeded to do, hum
ming a little tune to herself all the
I while. Honora changed to her gown
1 and went down to dinner with the
dreary certainty that she would
spend a lonely evening.
All signs of Mildred's annoyance
were gone, and she chatted persist
ently all through the evening meal
The girls were just sipping their
coffee when there was the sound of
wheels outside, and a moment later
steps were heard on the front
porch.
A Warm Welcome.
"I declare if here ain't Mrs. Hig
gins!" Katie exclaimed, running to
open the front door.
Honora greeted the new arrival
enthusiastically. "Oh, I'm so glad

you are here!" she said, kissing the
matron on both cheeks. "I have
missed you ever so much. But what
decided you to return so soon?"
"I got homesick," Mrs. Higgins
confessed. "So I hurried up all my
affairs and caught tho six o'clock
train to Fairlands."
"That's the train Honora and I
took yesterday," Mildred com
mented. "It's awfully slow, isn't
it?"
"Yes," Mrs. Higgins agreed. "But
I did not mind."
Honora regarded her sister mu
singly. Was it possible, she won
dered, that Mildred was already in
different to the recollection of the
vulgar love-making she had wit
nessed on that train twenty-four
hours ago? Yet the child had seemed
quite overcome by the sight—and
now she was as light.-hearted as if
it had never happened.
"You're looking very stveet and
pretty all dressed up, Milly," Mrs.
Higgins was saying. "But, Honora,
my dear, you are paler than usual.
Don't you feel well?"
"I have a little headache," Hon
ora evaded.
"I had one before dinner, and
Honora hadn't. Now I've lost mine,
and she must have picked it up,"
Mildred declared merrily.
Her manner was gay, as if dis
appointments and trouble were un
known to her.
"Come in and let Katie get some
thing ready for you to eat, dear
Mrs. Higgins," Honora urged.
"I had supper before I left Hart
ford." the matron said. "But I
would like a cup of coffee. I think
I will take it up in my room, where
I can rest, for I am tired What are

"I am going to sit upstairs in
your room and have a good talk
with you," Honora answered. "Milly
has an engagement. Arthur Bruce
is coming to see her."
"That's nice," Mrs. Higgins
smiled. "I'm glad."
She did not say why she was glad.
It might have been because Milly
was to have a eafl from "that nice
young man." Or it may have been
because she was to have her fav
orite charge to herself for a whole
evening.
