"When a Girl Marries"
A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problems of a Girl Wife
CHAPTER CCXX.
, "You might have been decently
cordial to Evvy," Jim snapped as
we • were driving. "When I asked j
her to stay to dinner, she had more,
than half a mind to stick, and then,
vou froze her out." i
-I know 1 did," 1 replied serenely,
floating the cream in his pet iash-j
ion on top of Jim s after dinner,
coffee.
Jim looked up in astonishment, j
"Well, you're a cool hand, Anne, j
confessing that you snubbed one of.
my oldest friends in your own home.;
And right after she invited us to;
the country for a week-end.' |
"That was one of the reasons, j
I answered, smiling with the firm;
determination that nothing should,
make me lose my good-tempered;
equilibrium. j
I counted on Jim's sense of hu- j
mor to conquer his pique, and sure,
enough, it did.
"So when people invite you out •
you snub them in return —to make,
it harder, I suppose. Think the law I
of supply and demand works social-;
ly, en what, Anne? The more difli
cult you are to capture the more;
you'll be valued or something like j
that "
"When a' woman forces an invita
tion on me after I've declined it, I'
show her I'm at least clever enough
not to offer her an invitation I know
too well she won't decline," I an
swered enigmatically, knowing very
well Jim would give me my chance
by asking what I meant.
He did. So I told him how Evvy
had invited me down for the -week
end and how, after I'd said we were
hooked, she'd hung around just long
enough to seem to forget and to
repeat the invitation to him in a
way he wasn't likely to refuse.
"Clever kid, Evvy!" was Jim's
amused comment. "But it's pretty
decent of her just the same, and '
Cosby will be no end tickled to
have Val meet the people whose
homes are near Mason Towers. Our
old place Is less than half a mile
away. I'll show it to you, Anne.
Now that I'm getting more solid
with Colby every week, we'll buy
it back some day. And Evvy didn't
put one over on your stupid hus
band, as you appear to think. She i
merely played into my hand by get-i :
ting up this party."
"I see," 1 replied, glimpsing at
Jim, whose quiet determination to :
go where he had started was new
to me. '
"So you may see why your turn
ing Evvy out so coolly to-night ■
would have made me pretty mad if
it had spilled the beans and had

PuDDINE FOR DESSERT! Puddine makes a
"company" dinner of the simplest meal.
And without a bit of bother. All you do is to
add sugar and milk —either fresh or condensed —and
boil for three minutes. Puddine is already flavored.
You can have it in rich chocolate, cream vanilla, rose
vanilla, orange, lemon, —your favorite flavor.
No guessing whether it will be firm —Puddine
always turns out a mold of creamy dessert. The
children can eat all they like, for Puddine is light
and nourishing.
PUDDINE
Puddine is economical. A 15c box will serve 15
people, and of course, you need use only as much of
the box at one time as you want.
Use Puddine for cake fillings, pie fillings, and
smooth, velvety ice cream.
Try serving Puddine with fresh fruit.

I stared understandipgly at Jim's
! hard, set jaw and smiled back my
! reply:
"She won't, though. Not Evvy.
, She has a game of her own to play,
;Jim, and I've an idea that the Cos
' bys are counters. But theie's an
j other reason why I let her go to
, night. I had to be alone with you,
Jim. To talk to you—seriously."
"Come on into the living ropin
: and let me get comfy cn the couch
|if you're going to hand out some
; more rob stuff. What is it, Aune?
' Broke again?"
i "Yes," 1 replied, as I patted a pil
low into shape back of Jim's shoul
ders and put an ash tray at his
elbows.
"Broke again! By heck, this
doesn't seem much like the girl I
used to call 'miser'! How many
more dresses are you planning to
order now?"
"It isn't that." I said uneasily,
wondering just where to begin. "It's
n °f—for me. Jim, it's Phoebe.
Slje's in great trouble."
"Oh. think up a better one. Anne.
I know you're trying to put some
thing over. But if Phoebe's in
trouble, since when does she fly to
you?" laughed Jim. eyeing me lazi
ly. "Say, girli<*. you look good to me
| to-night. How'd you like to go to a
show—and somewhere to danced
I'll give you nil the money you need
if you're broke, hut don't hand me
out any yarns to-night."
"But it is Phoebe!" I cried. "She's
still in love with fs'eal and Pick
West is trying to make her marry
him."
"Of all the romantic balderdash!"
laughed Jim. "Are you going to
buy West off so Phoebe can marry
your kid brother?"
"Jim. listen." I begged. "Please
take this seriously. It's life and
death to Phoebe. She's been play
ing the market—and losing. Dick
West put up her margins for her
and she was to pay him back out of
her winnings. Only she didn't win.
And now he's persecuting her "
"Rot!" interrupted Jim vigorous
ly. "This is the seebnd time you've
come to me with a wild tale about
West. You never liked him, Anne.
But it's you who are doing the per
secuting. And I won't have it. Do
you get me?"
"Yes—but you don't get me!" T
said speaking rapidly for fear Jim
would interrupt me again. "Phoebe
thought she—liked Mr. West. Then
he tried to make love to her and
she knew she couldn't marry him.
You don't know what a nice girl's
sensibilities are—you can't know. !

A Ready Made Coffee
Pure and Delicious
This is the story of a coffee that
does not have to be made! And the
way of it is this:
It was necessary for our boys in
the trenches to have real coffee, and
yet they did not! have the means to
make it. So Hires Instant Soluble
Coffee was made.
And as proof that Hires Instant
Soluble CofTec met every government
requirement. 6B 2-3 per cent, of all
the trench ctfffee contracted for by
the American Army was this same
Hires Instant Soluble Coffee. We
couldn't agree to supply more than
this because oUr facilities would not
permit.
Carefully chosen colfee beans from
a choice selection of Java and
Mocha coffee are used in making
Hires Instant Soluble Coffee. And the
pure delicious juice of these beans is
dried and converted into a powdered,
soluble form. Immediately water Is
added, the coffee powder dissolves and
becomes as originally made.
Having Hires Instant Soluble
Coffee, means no more trouble over
the coffee pot and no more empty
ing coffee grounds. It means that
elimination of waste. You make cof
fee just as you want it—whenever
you want it, too and you don't
have two or three cups left over In
the pot.
And Hires Instant Soluble Coffee
can now be secured inismall or large
tins, for use right in your home. A
small can pf Hires Instant Soluble
Coffee is equivalent to a pound of
the best Mocha and Java coffee. The
low price is due to the fact that
with our exclusive process we ex
tract 110 'pef cent, more juice from
the bean than you can •in matting
cofTee in the old way. Get it in all
i stores.
THE LOVE GAMBLER
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
Datvid DeLaine caught his breath.
The girl thought he grew a shade
paler.
"My past!" tc e alloc d.
"Yes," she began, "about your
having been—"
She paused. A light foot-fall in
the hall above warned her that
Norah or one of the ether maids
might be listening.
"Wait —step in here," she ordered,
leading the way into the drawing
room.
I •David DeUaine had not been In
I this room before. Even now he gave
i it only a passing glance. But in that
I glance he saw that the apartment
i was large, that there was a grand
piano here, that the polar-bear rug
lay on the floor and that the furni
j ture was upholstered in a soft shale
| of blue. He looked anxiously at the
| slender girl in the midst of these
j luxurious furnishings.
He had a peculiar feeling, as if he
and she were together amid sur
roundings to which both had been
bom; that t'-e.v had thrown off the
disguises the> had assumed toward
each other and were the David De
Laine and Desiree Heighten whom
|Aunt Jeanne had loved and longed
to make happy.
Something clicked in his brain as
the shutter clicks in a camera, and
be remembeicJ that ihis was ths
daughter of his employer and he
but a common chauffeur; moreover,
that she had referred to his past,
and that he had been startled by
this reference. She must not sus
pect who he was! N
With an effort he spoke. "My
past?" he repeated interrogatively.
"Yes," she replied gently. "My
father told me that you did not wish
the fact that you had been in the
service known by outsiders. He sug
gested that you shrank from people
suspecting that you are not strong
enough to be in the army—that you
are rather ashamed of what ytfu
call your accident."
She waited for him to confirm or
deny this statement. He did neither.
"So," she went on, "I can guess why
you pretended to be Irish to-day."
In spite of her seriousness, a little
smile curved her lips as she looked
at David and fancied his posing as a
full-blooded Irishman.
He saw the smile. His own lips
twitched and his eyes twinkled.
"Thank you," he said, "for under
standing."
David Thinks Fast
He was thinking fast. He had net
supposed that she would put this in
ferpretation upon his tactics with
regard to Jefferson. He had tea red
that she would suspect that he was
trying to conceal hie identity for
some other reason than the one
attributed to him. He drew a breath
of relief. For the present, his secret
was safe so far as she was con
cerned.
"Was that all you wish to say
to me?" she queried.
Then he recalled his reason for
asking her to give him a few min
utes for explanation.
"No, Miss Deighton. First of all,
I want to apologize V 0 you for
causing you anp discomfort or an
noyance by my action."
"X do not understand," she re
joined, mystified for the moment.
"Tou see," he explained, J'l could
not help overhearing what Mr. Je—
what that gentleman said about me
—and I also heard your reply. It
was most kind of yo* to try to
excuse my seeming lack of patri
otism, and I regret that I made
such necessary "
She was regarding htm intently,
and he saw creeping into her eyes
an expression of surprise that re
minded him that he was addressing
her as an equal. In his earnestness
he was letting slip his assumed
manner. "I mean," he floundered on,
"that for a servant to make it nec
essary for a lady to exp'ain his posi
tion is, to say the least, most pre
sumptuous. And I wanted to beg
your pardon, miss."
She smiled, but it was an arti
ficial smile, lacking in humor.
"I see what yoh mean. Smith. It
shows very good feeling or. your
part to wish to soy all this. But
really it was not neces&ary."
He packed toward the door.
"Thank you, miss. I hope I may not
be so inconsiderate another time."
He had reached the front door
when her voice reached his ears
again.
A Glint of Humor
"Smith," she said, coming out into
the hall, "if any one else aoi.s you
embarrassing questions , such as
Mr. Jefferson must have asked to
move you to do what you did—Just
pretend you are Irish, if you like—
or French, or any other nationality
—except, of course, do not pretend
to be German!"
Again she smiled, this time
there was a gleam of genuine mirth
in the dark eyes. The chauffeur's
face lighted, and he laughed softly.
"Thank you!" he murmured. "I
will remember. But I hope net 10,
have to mrOfee upon your kindness
to such an extent again. It was
almost unpardonable.
When he had gone and closed the
door behind htm, the girl stood still
for several minutes, her lips com
pressed. her brows drawn together.
She was thoroughly puzzled—not
only by David's manner, but by her
own mental attitude. S-.c had al
ways sneered at womer. who joked
and talked freely with their chauf
i feurs—-and yet ehe had actually en
joyed this little talk with Smith.
j She went thoughtfully up to her
j room. She found it harder than
) ever now to regard Smith as a
| servant. What had wrought this
! change?
j The nshe remembered how his
: blue eyes had twinkled and how his
. lips had twitched at the mention of
j his Irish brogue,
| That, she told herself, had
: changed her attitude towards the
] man.
It is not easy for one to feel
superior to the person with whom
| one has shared a joke.

Political Upheaval in
France Appears to
Have Been Started
Paris, June 12. The political up
heaval in ■ France, predicted as an
aftermath of the war, appears to
have begun. After the modification
of factional lines in the Socialist
party, the former extermist minority
has become the majority.
The new /Socialist majority, taking |
a far more extreme position than the !
element led by Albert Thomas and j
Marcel Sembat, former war ministers,
does not yet openly pronounce for I
Bolshevist principles, though in the I
majority there is a still further ex- |
tremisl minority that demands im- '
mediate adherence to the doctrines of j

of them the soldier w:;l for the first j
