“BEWARE OF BACHELORS,” with an All-Star Cast, is a
picturization
SYNOPSIS
The waiting room of Dr. Edward
~ Davis, a nerve specialist, is filled
with patients, mostly women, whose
”
sole concern is not nerve. For Dr.
Davis is both young and handsome.
- But he is interested in one person
‘only, his wife, to whom he has been
married for almost three months.
And as for as he is concerned, pa-
tients are merely patients to be
treated. But he is having a hard
time trying to make them realize
this fact. Dr. Davis is conducting
an extremely busy morning session

He stood in the archway of the
Grill Room for a moment, scanning
the crowd for a sight of his friend.
"A figure came hurrying towards
him.
“Hello, Bd!” The man caught
his arm, “Over here.”
“Oh, hello, Joe; I didn’t see you.”
Dr. Davis followed his pilot across
the floor.
They came to a stop before one
of the tables, and then the doctor
noticed that it was occupied by a
female of the species. He frowned
~ 4irresolutely, but his friend was al-
ready making the introductions. -

Mater. Right, Ed?’ Joe Babbitt
turned to the physician.
“We certainly did,” Davis re-
turned moodily. He was just a bit
put out that Joe had dragged in a
third member to their little lunch-
eon party. She was pretty enough
—a little too made up, perhaps.
But he had wanted to be rid of
feminine wiles for at least a few
moments. }
INSTALLMENT TWO
“1 don’t know—I—I suppose
something at the office,” Davis ane
swered. But he had an idea that
Mrs. Babbitt ‘had been on the oth-
er end of that wire. He squirmed
uneasily and glanced about him,
Suppose May should suddenly turn
up here. He knew that she somes
times lunched at the Ritze wher
she came in town to do her shop-
ping. Suppose she saw him at the
table with this girl. He cast a few
mental #nvectives after Joe Bab-
Litt.
He had married May only three
months ago, and they had yet to
have their first quarrel. And he
didn’t intend to hurry that quarrel
by being seen with a flighty look-
ing creature in a tete-a-tete lunch-
eon. The best thing he could do
would be to get away as quickly as
possible. He fidgeted nervously
and answered Miss Pfeffer in mon-
osyllables. Why couldn’t she hur-
ry so that they could get out of
there. But Miss Pfeffer seemed
bent on taking her time, and not
only that, she was also bent on in-
teresting Dr. Davis, and to that end
she was bringing into play all her
charms.
CHAPTER II
Life in a big city may be amaz-
ingly simple, or it may suddenly
become filled with strange hap-
penings. Thus far Mrs. Edward
Davis, nee May Volland, had found
it amazingly simple—that is, with
the exception of a few childish dis-
appointments, a few adolescent
heart-breaks.
