Adele Ganison'a New Phase Of
REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
CHAPTER 37
WHY MADGE FKARKD WHAT
MU6. STOCK till. DUE M1UHT
DO.
Mr. Stockbridgc moved prompt
ly toward us at Mr. Donker's can.
but I coulu see that his action
was tinged with reluctance. He
evidently also had noticed bis
wi e's increasing restlessness and
moodiness, knew, no doubt, far
better than any of the rest of uj
what such action on her part por
tended. But there was no es
caping Mr. Donkers. who, appar
ently feeling that his matrimonial
liberty was in no danger from me.
had adopted an elephantine play
iulness of manner wh.ch aept mo
busy controlling my risibles.
"I am afraid. Stockbrldge. you
are cherishing a heretic, danger
ous, though fair perhaps I
might say dangerous because
fair" he indulged in a fatuous
cljuckle at his own remark, point
ing it with an inclination of nia
head toward me, "in your school.
Ske tells me that she believes di
vorce should be made easier."
"Does that make her a here
tic?" Mr. Stockbrldge replied
smiling, although I saw bis eyes
roving uneasily in search of his
wi e. They kad not tar to go,
for Milly Stockbrldge was slow
ly making her way toward us, do
ing it hi a cleverly unobtrusive
way, I admitted, tut still patently
determined upon joining our
group.
"You misunderstand me entire
ly," I said a biC Impatiently jta
Miss Holcombe's bete nolr. j"I
said I believed d.vorce laws
should be uniform over the counV
try, and that more safeguards and -difficulties
should be thrown
around marriage. There are many
unhappy marriages " I snappM
my sentence off hhort as I real
ized that Milly Stockbrldge had
come within hearing, hoped de
voutly that she had not caught
the beginning. "It's a lireaomo
subject, anyway," 1 said lightly.
"Cm sure I didn't start it." I
achieved almost a kittenish pout
as I looked at my bovine vlsa '
vis.
What "Milly" Said.
T
"Mv dear Mrs. Ur.ihum " ho ran.
gan to protest, but Milly Stock'
bridge's high-pltcbed voice inter
rupted us. j
"What's thiB about unhappy
marriages?" she shrilled. "Who'i.
for instance? Sorely not yours.
Mr. Donkers, if we believe what
you constantly tell us." Thero
was a shrewish meaning In tho
riant e she threw him which evi
dently penetrated even flla-esjl-
dermis, and I learned later that
the late "dear departed" Mia.
Donkers had ruled her hrabartl
with the rod of absolute monar
chy. .
"And as. of course. It couldn't
posibly be yours, Mrs. Graham.!"
she made the very pronunciation
of my name .sound venomous,
"why. then, it must be ours. Wbjy
didn't you stand up for our rec
ord. Ken? Why didn't you ten.
Uiem ous is one of those wonder
ful unions made !n heaven and
wound up In the ether place?" j
Sne laughed, an uncanny,
gruesome sort of merriment thatf
made tne shiver. I looked around,
uneasily. Fortunately, her volco
Is always shrill, and no one
seemed to have noticed her man
ner or voTce nq one save Alicto
Holcombe, who had been watch
ing us. I saw her pick tip Hesii
Dean with a flash of her eye, and
then saunter lazily toward u.
Miss Dean promptly followed her
era m pie. j
Mr. Donkers was too obtuse to
realize the real seriousness of the
situation but he hastened to proi.
test the only point his mentality
could grasp. j
