I wondered what he'd do if he knew. Valerie and Jim in the moonlight. There had been moonlight in our honeymoon week.

There wasn't a thing I could do. Nothing but wait. I saw that. I'd be making a still worse fool of my self if I telephoned downstairs and asked for my husband. If he were in the hotel he'd snarl at me for dis turbing him. If he were out in the moonlight—what then? It was bad enough for me to suspect. Surely there was no object in having the whole hotel know. I must have sat there like that ! for half an hour. Then there was la knock at my door. I went to an swer and found Lane Cosby in the hall, chuckling, actually chuckling. | "May I come in?" he asked quite innocently. ' "I'd better come out into the hall," I I replied coldly. ! "Oh, yes—of course," he said, as if it really didn't matter at all. "I've just had a phone message from my little madcap. She didn't go to bed, after all. Met your husband in the elevator—and decided to go out for a breath of air. Decided next to I take the oar. Runs it hersell, you know—little mischief!

"Perhaps he couldn't stop her," I ! ventured dryly. ! The irritation faded from Lane Coshy's face. j "Probably not. Little madcap!" He chuckled again. "I'll have hot chocolate and sandwiches for them [in the room. Stay dressed and I'll call you as soon as they get in." I "I think I'll go to bed," I said in !the most level tone 1 could manage. I "I'm very tired." I "But my little girl may need you," protested Lane Cosby, vigorously.

"That's so," he said, indulgently. ! "Well, run along to bed. See you in the morning." I went to bed and pretended to sleep.- It fooled Jim when he came in an hour later—or perhaps he'd heard the proverb: "It's best to let sleeping dogs lie." All day Sunday I avoided mention of the night before. We stayed out hours, open almost all day, and the days went by placidly enough. When we motored hack to the city, Saturday's incident was seemingly forgotten. And when Jim went down to business Monday morning it was still iincommented on. I told myself that it was the merest episode—not to be thought of again—to be smiled over by me as indulgently as Lane Cosby did. But in my heart of hearts T knew it was a skeleton—locked in the closet perhaps but there in spite of the lock of silence. "I won't think of it! I won't think of it!" T kept telling myself as I straightened things up in my bed room Monday morning. Then the phone jangled, and I answered, won dering how I'd treat her if it were Valerie. "Anne?" asked a deep, vibrating voice I knew at once—an unforget able, unmistakable voice. "This is Tony. . . How are you?" "All right," I replied, formally. "And you—and our Betty?" "I want to tell yoji. . . But first I want you to tell me why you ran away when I came." "I didn't —I can't. . . ." "Anne!" there was reproach in his tones, as if he were asking me not fib to him. "Will you have lunch with me?" "Yes,." I said quietly, brushing aside Jim's feelings in the matter. "T'U .come for you at once. And don't forget I want to know why you ran away—from me!" "I ran away from—you!" I echoed, incredulously, as I hung up the re ceiver. (To Be Continued.) LITTLE TALKS BY BE A TRICE FAIRFAX ly HKATRICK FAIRFAX There is one type of puzzled and distressed girlhood that writes to me more frequently than any other—it is the girl who though living at home is practically homeless. Some times she earns her living and some times she does not. but always she craves the unattainable—a home that will be more than the place where she eats and sleeps. And when she is a wage earner the case is harder than when she is not, because after eight hours' v."il? she requires recreation almost more than she does food and sleep. All the youth in her cries aloud for it — that pent-uv> youth that during business hours has been trying to get as if it were an automaton. But her parents have forgotten the call of youth that a score of years ago made restVaint as irk some to them as it is to their daughter to-day . They say very naturally that they worked harder than she. and very likely it 'a true, but they eanniot possibly , need a normal social life as much as she needs it. The needs of youth are imperative. Something goes wrong if they are denied. So when a girl writes me that she is meeting a young man on the sly and is worried over having to do so, I know, even if she does not confide in me, the sort or homo she has. Perhaps the poor, overworked pa rents feel that they are doing all they can for their eldest daughter, and that in denying her a little le gitimate liberty they are shielding her from temptation. But if they could look over my mail sorpe morn ing they would realize there is no surer means of exposing a girl to peril than to keep her from having a normal social life at home. Very likely they will "pooh pooh" this as a childish and shallow griev ance. They do not realize the hu miliation—even tragedy—of a girl's being unable to have the friends she makes downtown in business at her home because of the demands of a boisterous and tumultuous fam ily. AH Children Together Perhaps the younger children join in the merriment at her expense, threaten and carry out the threat of misbehaving when the company comes. And the short-sighted pa rents, regarding them as "all chil dren together," aid and abot the younger fry in their amusement. A sensitive girl does not repeat this experiment more than once ofr twice—it is too bitterly humiliating. And it begins to get about that her hoipe life is "funny." Other .girls with the intuitive sex Jealousies of youth are not slow in spreading the report about the eccentricities of Mary's household, and young people DAILY HINT ON FAXONS | A PLEASING DESIGN 2819—This neat, simple little model may be finished without the collar trimming.

How many tragedies of a lonely or dependent old age have begun in this way. A certain sensitive type of girl resigns herself to the inev itable and lets youth and opportu nity slip by, while the girl of hard ier temperament copes with the sit uation after her own fashion. Out wardly she conforms to the parental discipline, but actually she carries on a more hazardous social life on the sly. And who so deeply amazed when the duplicity is revealed, as it fre quently is, in an elopement or some thing more tragic, than the parents who in their blindness have first connived at the mischief. Let jiar ents remember their own youth, its temptations, sorrows and Joys, and' realize these things are now the portion of their own girls and boys. When the girl is not employed j the case is different, the results are I apt to be morbid in their effect, ns she has more time to brood over the abnormality of her situation. Take the case of a girl whose activities are confibed to a little housework, a little reading, perhaps, and a little church committee work and no other outside interests. Her father will not hear of her receiving young men, her mother does not disap prove of their society, but is too in timidated by the father to attempt to alter his views. The following letter illustrates such a case: Shy and Constrained Dear Miss Fairfax: As I am rather discontented with my present lot and see no chance of improving it, I am wlits ing to you to see if you can s'aggest a way out for me. I have a very comfortable home Jand my parents suplply me with ! everything within their power, but deny me the society of boy friends. They seem to be prejudiced against my enjoying the society of young 1 men, as they think a girl should not be acquainted with any man unless he has immediate intentions of mar rying her. I am nineteen and as yet have never been allowed to go out with\ any one. Naturally, whenever I meet a member of the opposite sex I act shy, reserved and constrained. In the society of girls I feel no constraint and take their company as a matter of course. X want to do as my pa rents think best for me, but it is very hard and 1 hope you can find a way out for DISCONTENTED. The reasonableness of the girls plea ought to bring an immediate response on the part of her parents. As she says, she wants to do as they think best, and it is not an agreeable thought that a girl who wishes to be obedient and do the right thing may drift away from these ideals through pressure of circumstance. Advice to the Lovelorn KVERYTHING I N DKSIRABLK Dear Miss Fairfax: I am sixteen and considered good looking. A short time ago I met a man sixteen years my senior, with whom I fell in love at first sight. He told me he had a sick wife and three children, but is trying to di vorce his wife as she is sick and makes life unpleasant for him. My parents told him not to go with me. Since then he does not seem to care for me, as he always disappoints me and does not answer my letters. Now Miss Fairfax, 1 love this man very dearly and forgive him all; but 1 cannot marry him as he wants to keep his children and X am too young to be a stepmother of three children. Please advise me what t0 BROKEN-HEARTED SIXTEEN. The man you describe seems to have every undesirable quality. He is twice your age, and is ulso un kind to an Invalid wife. Your par ents were quite right in putting a stop to his attentions to a child of your age, and I hope you will turn your attention to getting an educa tion instead of a lover. As for the man, he is not worth discussing. ARE KISSING GAMES PROPER Dear Miss Fairfax: Do you think it proper for boys and girls between the ages of four teen and sixteen to play kissing games at small gatherings each week? CONSTANCE E.
