" When a Girl Marries"

A New, Romantic Serial Dealing With the Absorbing
Problem of a Girl Wife
CHAPTER CCCLXXXIII. ]
Bright and early on tho morning,
set for Vat's departure from Dream- j
wold I awoke. ;
Resolutely I turned around and j
tried to go to sleep again. !
had intimated that it would be.
merciful tor me not to appear, until!
they had left. 1 had-intended to do
that for Val's sake as well as his.,
hut the queer wild kiss with which j
the big brown bear had said good
by made me inclined to avoid hint j
on my own score. !
Since my marriage to Jim no:
other man had kissed me. So even
though 1 felt sure that Lane was]
simply a devoted friend whod;
blundered a bit under great emotion.:
1 was inclined to avoid him, unti.|
he'd had time to forget.
There was so much bustle and.
stir of departure in the very air that,
1 couldn't get to sleep again. As l|
lay alert, "with an amazing h-elmi?
of being on the edge of an adventuie,
and intrigue. 1 heard a great rumb
ling and purring of heavy machinery
Flinging on a heavy robe, I m-epf
to the window and peered down at
the driveway where it rounds into
a curve just under my and
leads to the porte coohere. There
stood an enormous, padded ambu
lance. .... , .
Wondering whether Aal hail le
fused to drive in my ear, or it m
tier state she must be kept in a re
clining position. 1 went back to bed.
Since I'd been plainly told I wasn t
wanted on the scene of action, t
couldn't play pooping Tbomasina.
1 poked my head under the covers
and didn't get up even to run my
bath iint.il 1 heard the ambulance
ramble down the driveway. Then j
1 rose and made my preparations
for the day. To my amusement it
was only nine when at last X was

Pat was breakfasting when I got.

"Sleep through the rumpus. he
asked. ,
I yawned and smiled and so avoid

"Jeanie borrowed your car. he|
continued. "Phoebe telephoned j
from the city. Appears Carlotta •<
was called back to town, as herj
governor's very sick. So the kiddie
came in with Carlotta late last
night, and she's due on the ten-ten. j

off to meet Phoebe. Fine, I call it.

TUESDAY EVENING,
] "I'm liappier than I can tell you
I to have Jeanie feel so close to me."
;I said, adding with more emphasis
than I realized, "staying down to
day. Pat?"
"No, I'm skipping out in a taxi
j I've just ordered to take nie to the
} station. I'll call Jim a$ soon as
(I'm after getting into the big town,
j never doubt that, Alunna. And
j we'll be coming down on the same
I train to-night."
I smiled my appreciation and
i punctuated it by seeing Fat off.
Then I went back to my breakfast.
' Alt in a minute. Bertha came in and
| stationed herself behind one of tha
; empty chairs.
| "1 took the liberty of sending the
; waitress oft to make up tlie rooms,"
she said. "I wanted so much io
i have a word with you, Mrs. Harri
j son. 1 thought I'd like to tell you
I how happy we ate —me and Lyons.
; And how we do nothing but talk I
j about bow we owe it all to you..
f And if ever you need us"
The doorbell rang just then and
Bertha had 10. rush to answer it. T
smiled to myself. How odd It was
! that in the past few days three
persons had told me that if ever Tj
needed onyone I could count on j
them, l.yons, I.ane and now Lyons':
wife. That suggested something
else and T wrinkled my brow in vexa-1
tion trying to remember what was
dancing tantal'zingly on the edges,
iof my mind. What was it? Wh it
could it lie that I wanted to remem-l
bcr and yet couldn't capture?
Phoebe's voice brought me baek. |
I hurried into the livingroom to greet:
the little sister. After hugging and
kissing tne, she burst out:
| "Doesn't honeymooning agree with
i Jeanie'.' Doesn't she look great! I
Don't you think she's the beautiful-!
est thing you ever saw? 1 wonder
what a happy marriage would do to
: me?"
"We'll try it and see." replied
Virginia. "I've a plan"
But Phoebe, sending me a quick
little glance of understanding, in-;
terrupted:
"Lets not talk about me. I've
got to hear al! about the accident.:
i.Poor Shelly! Neal says the town's
j agog with it. Tell me everything.")
"Tell us what you've heard first,
dear," replied Virginia smoothiy.
I "Then we won't tie in danger of
'boring you with the parts of the
sad little talc you already know."

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:

.who often get too familiar.
I value my position and like my •
employer very much (he Is very sel

i the other men as friends, but I never
know what to say or do when they
get too personal.

Assert yourself and yonr dignity.
You have been employed to write let
ters. not to make love. Xo . position !
worth having is dependent on aj
girl's submitting to familiarities or,
[putting herself on a hasis where the
men in the office sneer at her for her I
weak compliance. Speak righ out in:

sthat you are in the office for work
and not for nonnsensiy and that you,
don't propose to stand for the latter. '

<'an we ptit into words the meaning
.of love? Or is it an indefinable and im
palpable thing?
l"Love is such a mystery I cannot find I
1 it out—
For when I think I'm most resolved I
I Then I am most in doubt."
j "How .-hail 1 know my true love""!
lis the question' which comes to me
• most often in the chain of daily let
ters which binds me to my unse n
1 riends.
; To decide which of two suitors a!
girl really loves, to help a man to
some understanding of whether lie!
lis some girl's friend or lover to in
terpret the meaning of the actions of
two young folks to each other—this
, is my daily task. Poets, philosophers'
and sages since the world began have
: been struggling with this mvsterv. j
let I often wonder—is it a niys-i
;tery?
i We all know how often youth'
j tries to build houses of love on pas-,
sion and its lure. Quickening heart-;
[heats and desire may be part of love, t
j Hut they are not its cornerstone and !
; foundation.
, Love must know tenderness and •
'devotion and loyalty. It must be made
' and blended of them. Without them it'
.can't last or satisfy.
! When a man thinks he loves a girl 1
there are some keynote questions he'
' might well ask himself. We all know I
i the old formula: "Not can I live with i
i her. but can I live without her?" \
| good enough formula, but not verv
i clear. is it? J
| But how about questions like the**
to be the touchstones lor discovering
ireal love?
t "When she suffers, will I suffer,
too. Will I try to comfort her? Will
I gi y e ,£?. r . m >" strength on which to
©®n. Will 1 h patient and under
standing' when she comes to bad
I hours?' 1
Tenderness. That's what a man or
woman must feel in order to know the
kindness of love.
More touchstone questions:
"Am T so interested in myself that
: wiiat he wants to do won't interest
.me. Or do 1 care enough for him to 1
want to help his career? Will I put;
.myself in the background and try to'
aid him'. Will I support him over the!
rough places and believe in him even
when he falls?"
| Unselfish fair. The helief that makes I
the rougli road beautiful so two lov-1
ers travel it together is needed fori
the great understanding of love. '
i "Will sacrifice be easy? Will hard-|
ships find me smiling and ready to I
I endure blows and light my way past!
jthem? Will 1 be uncomplaining no
matter what fortune brings us?"
Devotion—the loyalty which makes
i two cling together to the end of the
path they have elected to travel to-1
| gether—is vital for the companion- I
ship of love.
i Ixive is useless unless it has ten-'
| derness and devotion and loyally.'
] What's the use of a surging passion!
i of desire that covets the possession of'
another being unless there's back of;
that emotion tho great sense of be-i
i longing?

Is love less valuable than the most;
precious jewel In the world?
Of course not. The question is an- j
surd. Love is vital to life. It is like
the life-giving sunshine of our ex
istence and the great enfolding moth
jerhood of nature itself.
We all need great protecting, be
! Moving, understanding kindness to 1
help us in our dark hours. We all;
: crave sympathy In cheer us along
'life's steep path. We all long for some
lone to believe in us, some one to need
us. some one to stand by us. Life it
|self requires these, or it is incotn
i plete.
Love believes. It understands and
[forgives. Tt is faithful and loyal. It
| enfolds. It is ready to take the blow
i meant for its beloved.
If yog only desire and covet and
long, you don't love. If you only like
land enjoy, you've failed of the great
[need of life.
; Hut when to the emotion that is
j beautiful when right, and the com
radeship needed for the foundation,
are added faith ahd loyalty and great

love.

like sunshine and soft air—warming,
caressslng. kind and needful for life
itself.

| That King Coal is not in tmmedl
• ate danger of being-dethroned by
j King Waterpower is indicated by
: some figures presented by the Kng-
I ish engineer, Charles A. I'arsons, who
'quotes the estimate of 7,000,000,-
I 000,000 tons as representing the
! probable total remaining resources
lof the world in coal. From other
j sources we find that the total an
, nual coal production of the world
! at present is in the neighborhood of
| 900,000,000 tons. Dividing the first
I figures by the last, it appears I hat.
! supposing the present rate of pro
! Uuction and consumption to continue
! unchanged, it would require 7,7?7 :
! years to exhaust the world's coal
j supply.
I That is long enough for a good
: many empires to rise and fall, and
; also long enough to give plenty of
t time to inventive science to find
j cheap and effective substitutes for
: coal. However, it must be admitted
| that every year the difficulty and
.the cost of extracting the coal front
| the earth increases, while some long
worked eoal fields are giving.signs of ,
approaching exhaustion. This seems j
jto Vie particularly true of Knglnnd,
who, says Mr. I'arsons, "owes her
modern greatness to tlie early de
velopment of her coal." although
she is now using up her resources
| in coa) so much more rapidly than
; most other countries that, in his •
i opinion, it may eventually he
■ cheaper for her to import coal than ;
' to try to continue obtaining her sup
: ply from her impoverished seams,

Mr. Parsons says it takes about ;
i eight tons of average coal to main

Britain, there are not, all told, more .

calculations are far from certain, •
that the total energy derivable from j

: One fundamental difference which]
