"When a Girl "
By AXX MSI.B
A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
CHAPTER CI.XVI.
Hardly had Virginia departed,
leaving me the dlflicult commission
of trying to persuade Phoebe to be a
simple little girl instead of a gay
young society woman, when Jim
phoned.
"Annie!" ho exclaimed, with an
air of breathless hurry. "Will you
rtjuft a few duds into a bag and send
tihem down to the station by mes
senger? Cosby wants to chase across
the liver to meet a couple of the big
l'bqit men from the (.'oast. He asked
me as a favor to come along."
An inspiration came to me then,
and because of it, I acquiesed so
amiably that 1 could hear Jim gasp
as he went on:
"Can't be back till to-morrow. Do
yon mind being alone "
"Don't worry about me," I an
swered. "1 wouldn't particularly
mind being alone, but I think I'll,
ask Jeanio or Phoebe to come overj
and stay."
"Ask 'cm both. And take 'em to ;
a show if you like. Call Drysen
and get decent seats while you're i
about it. I'll ring you tip first thing
when 1 get back. You'rs a good [
sport, Anne. So long."
At once I executed .Tim's com- i
nvands. Then 'I called Virginia's!
apartment and asked for Phoebe,!
and when her voice eanic to me \
over the wire, plunged right into |
the midst of my plan.
"It's Anne. Phoebe. I'm homesick!
for you. It's months since we had ]
a good talk. Arc you ready for a
reunion
"Of course," replied rhoebe with
indifferent politeness.

"Jim's called out of town for the
night," 1 went on, trying to arouse
her enthusiasm. "Why can't you
and 1 go to a show and then you
come back here to protect me from
ghosts and things?"
"I'm sorry, Anne. I'd like to, but
I have other plans. Shall I call sis
| ter? She may be able to come."
"No. Virginia and I had a —little
discussion this afternoon."
That was intended to make Phoe
; be recollect the clays when my "dis
cussions" with Virginia hadn't left
Us on speaking terms. Phoebe's
reply showed that my plan was be
ginning to work.
"Oh, Isee. Well, I don't like to
leave you alone. How would it be
if I came to you after the party?
No—wait; I've a real idea. Will you
join us "
I accepted prompty. This was
even better than 1 had dared hope—.|
iit would give me a chance to study 1
|at lirst hand the situation Pat had
reported, and it might present an j
J opportunity I could use to wean I
j Phoebe away from Kvvy and her
| whole dangerous group.
I When Sheldon's car was announc
[ ed, 1 hurried downstairs with a
| cocky feeling that the situation was
j in my hands and that Phoebe was as
I good as "saved." The first hard
! bounce to my calculations came with
j the realization that we were a party
jof six—that Tom Mason had been
brought along as'my partner.
| All through the dinner at a ga
i ish place called the lied and Black
I Club, Tom behaved with a quiet dig
nity pleasantly* in contrast with the
conduct of the other men—the hil
arity of which Pat had warned me.
And all through that dinner, Phoebe,
sitting between Sheldon and Hick
West, and flinging at each in turn,
glances that seemed to lure and tan
talize—reminded me rather sadly of
a snowflake misdirected into July
instead of January.
"Where do we go from here?"
Sheldon demanded toward the end
of the meal, flinging his arm across
| Phoebe's chair as be spoke, and
'j catching Ihe end of her floating
chiffons between'hls long fingers.
Phoebe didn't stir, but Dick West
, turned and staled at Sheldon's
•straying lingers.
i There was a sullen glint in his
I slightly close-set eyes.
"Why not to Cheng Fuey's as
•usual'." he demanded.
"Maybe Anno would .rather" —
began Phoebe. *
"Afraid of Anne?" purred Evvy.
"She's no goody-goody, and she
| likes Oriental things as well as the
,' rest of us. Tommy, 1 saw a fan of
i peacock feathers in a shop down
;in Chinatown the other night. And
jit seems to me-it would just match
I that blue robe you"—
I "Peacock feathers- are unlucky,"
1 interrupted Tom solemnly. "I car-

So you can't lure me to Chinatown
after peacock feathers. But if that

properly jealous blonde would try to
lure us away."
Every one laughed as if Tom were
being trenmedously clever. And I,
who knew just how clever he. had
been to defeat Evvy's malice, forced"
a quavering little smile.
"Want your chicken chow mein
and a dance or two to give you the
appetite for it, baby?" asked Shel
don, his voice a little fuzzy as he'
leaned toward Phoebe.
"The waltzes are mine!" challeng
ed Dick West, also leaning across
toward Phoebe. •
As we got up to go. Evvy came
and slipped her arm through mine.
"I didn't realize what I was do
ing when T almost gave away that
you were the girl to whom Tommy
was making presents of wonderful
blue robes. Forgive me, Anne?"
she purred.
"It doesn't matter," I replied with
far more indifference than 1 felt.
"I'm glad," acquiesced Evvy with
an air cf understanding. "Isnt it
amusing what a little flirt our Raby
is turning into? Picky and Shelly
are quite mad about her. She puts
my nose out of joint, but T love her
for all that. And 1 do try to keep
an eye on her. You believe that,
don't you. Princess Anne."
"Oh, yes," I # replied dryly.
Then Evvy made the final over
play of her weak hand:
"You know wo have to keep her
from being too lonesome while that
sweet brother of your's is away. By
the way, isn't Xeal due back pretty
soon ?"

LITTLE TALKS BY
BE A TRICE FAIRFAX
Don't, as you value your peace of
mind, arouse slumbering romantic
possibilities on the part of "Himself"
Irish for the head of the house—
by silly, unfounded jealousy.
The average man, in the role of
pater familias, paints a portrait of
himself and hangs it in the chamber
of his inner consciousness. The por
trait is that of a comforrtable law
abiding citizen, fond of his wife,
his children, his ease, boasting a
hobby or two, perhaps, and as en
tirely done with romance as with
the white flannels he wore the sum
mer he graduated from high school.
All said and done. Pater Familias
is rather attached to his portrait,
he likes to see himself upholding
the best traditions of the country—
and his wife, children and home as
the accessories to the benevolent
figure in the foreground.
It will have to be something pret
ty overwhelming to make Father de
stroy his masterpiece and hang in
its place a less flattering picture.
So whatever you do, do not de
stroy your good man's belief in his
portrait; make him feel that not
only the family, society, but the
State itself rests on such founda
tion—as indeed it does. t
Pater Familias' belief in himself
as a settled married man, done with
romance and philandering, must not
bo disturbed. Let it be assumed
that these things are as inevitable
as death and taxes, don't joke about
the head of the house in the role of
Lothario, for men have a way of
feeling that as long as they have the
name, they might as well have the
game too.
And if Pater Familias ever takes
it into his head to replace the staid,
highly respectable portrait of him
self that adorns the chamber of his
inner consciousness by one of those
dashing, poster effects, depicting a
middle aged charmer, suave, subtle,
and irresistible, then prepare to
definitely abandon your peace of
mind.
For middle-aged men, once they

have formed a taste for seeing them
selves in this posterish guise, never
go back to the respectable oil por
trait ideal with the wife, children
and home as agreeable accessories
in the background.
Next to destroying Father's faith
in his portrait, the most fatal form
of indoor sport for Mother to in
dulge in, is unfounded accusations
regarding some woman with whom
Father may have chatted for a few
I minutes 'regarding the lawn mower,
or something else equally vital.
Champion n Dangerous Role.
| Many a woman's jealousy of a
prettier woman has merely called
I her hushanr's attention to the wom
an's good looks. And in the act of
defending her from his wife's absurd
1 jealousy, he has made himself the
other woman's champion—rather a
dangerous role for a sorely badger
ed husband.
Do not drive Pater Familias into
thcheroje attitude of defending as in
nocent womal.as a situation fraught
with the possibilities of romance,
there is nothing equal to it either
in life or literature. If Father does
converse brilliantly about the lawn
mower or the pruning shears with
some neighbor's wife or sister whom
he happens to meet, do not act as if
they were fleeing: "Two souls with
but a single thought" and possibly
a single suitcase.
