entirely independent of him.

(NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY)
m m m
CHAPTER XLVIII
TT-YRD never knew Just how she
F got through that night.
For hours afterward, the
break in Larry's rolce. the wound
ed look in his eyes, the chug-chug
of the taxi as It died away in the
stillness. 8 till echoed and re-ech
oed through her brain.
Toward morning she get up
from her own bed. where she had
thrown herself In a conrnlsion of
tears, and slowly undressed.
She hardly recognised the red
eyes and puffy face that looked
back at her from the mirror.
She bathed her eyes In cold wat
er only to find them streaming
again a second later and baring
to hatha them all over again. She
slipped into her pink crepe pajam
as and sat on the edge of the bed.
looking Hke a crumpled and very
respondent little flower.
Finally she grew callly and
crawled into bed.
She woke much later with the
surprised feeling- that she must
have slept. She seemed weighted
down with a conviction that some
thing terrible was going to hap
pen. Then she remembered. It had
happened. Her little world had
smashed to smithereens!
Well, she wouldn't think about
it, now, or she would dissolve into
tears again. But as she lay there,
staring at the ceiling, her mind
began to nibble first at one and
then at another of the things that
had happened last night.
She just wouldn't permit her
self to think about them now!
But her thoughts darted away like
naughty children that hare been
warned not to look into a certain
closet.
Foolish! she said, shaking her
self.
There was the sound of a wind
stirring in the boughs of the elm
and the sudden darkening of the
skies that often occurs with a roll
of thunder.
Then she heard the voices of
the three little Blogg girls depart
ing for school and the drag of a
stick on the wooden pickets as
they passed the fence that closed
In the small New England cottage
across the street.
The smell of toast floated up to
her.
She surely couldn't be hungry,
she thought In consternation. On
top of a broken heart!
She remembered that this was
Friday, and she had accepted an
Invitation to a luncheon bridge at
a neighbor's house across the
street. Byrd was glad to have an
excuse not to go. for she disliked
these big, formal partlee.
"Well. I find that it's Just as
easy to have a big aprty and have
It over with," Mrs. Smith had
told her. "It's just as much work
to just have a few, and this way
you get all your debts paid and
don't hurt anybody's feelings."
And some time she would have to
show her house. Just as the oth
ers did, but now she was relieved
of that, at any rate.
The little white house would no
doubt be back on the market be
fore the end of the month!
Byrd shuddered. There was no
reason to cry about that, she
scolded herself. Larry would nev
er have been able to keep up the
payments on It anyway.
Just then Mandy came bustling
in with a breakfast tray.
"Yo' Jes' stay in bed this morn
ln and rest." she said, "now yo'
mammy's gone, there ain't no rea
son fo' yo' gettln' up."
Byrd ate her breakfast. She dis
covered she was very hungry.
Her 'first impulse was to take
the night train to Jacksonville
and talk with her fatt- rk "
thought of Henrietta stopped her,
But she did go down ij -Polk.
Her eyes bore erldence of sleep
lessness and worry, and Mr. Polk
eyed her anxiously as she came in
to his office.
"Worrying again!" he scolded.
"By your face I d say you had
more cares than the president of
the United States.
Then, without any preliminar
ies. Byrd blurted out the awful
truth.
"Mr. Polk. Larry and I are not
lir we're separated," she gulped.
Tear gathered In her throat In a
heary lumpj. She could get no fur
ther. Tears slipped brer the edges
of the deep, blue wells and trembl
ed like transparent Jewels on her
eyelashes.
"I think perhaps you suspected
things weren't going as smoothly
as "she halted again.
Mr. Polk nodded.
"It's a darn shame, and I'm sor
ry aa the dickens." he shook his
head deplorlngly. "Tour father
and mother will be completely
broken up orer It."
"I don't want them to know
about It Just yet." said Byrd.
"Perhaps later I'll run down and
tell them."
"What can I do to be of some
help." he asked solicitously. Then
a though came to him. "Why don't
you take a position in the Dana
just to keep your mind occupied
until you know definitely what
you want to do?"
"That's Just what I was think
ing." said Byrd, grarely, "but first
I want to decide about the house.
Could you sell It again without
any trouble?"
"Easy!" said Mr. Polk. "And
you'll perhaps make a thousand
or two on It. How about the fur
nishings?"
"I're decided to put the wed
ding presents and my personal
things Into storage and sell the
other things with the house."
"They're Just right for it, and
I really think they'll help sell the
house," said Mr. Polk, encourag
ingly. "If not. since you're used
then such a short time, you may
be able to get the stores to take
them back."
Byrd was to racate the house in
a week.
"It'll almost break Mandy's
heart to go," said Byrd. "I feel
as If she'd been with us all her
life. She's simply wonderful!"
"Perhaps we can find a place
for her," suggested Mr. Polk.
"But anyway, let her stay on until
the house is disposed of. Some
body ought to be there to look af
ter it. Now about this position "
"My prirate secretary's learing a
week from next Monday for a
month's racation, and suppose you
substitute for her."
Byrd was pleased with the sug
gestion and accepted on the spot.
"Will you arrange to hare a talk
wnn Larry! - asaea uyra. m a
voice that couldn't help trembling
whenever Larry's name was men
tioned. "I'd rather you tell him
about selling back the realty
stocks and buying Jack's share or
the Builders' Supply and the
house."
So that was agreed on. too.
"Hare you heard from the new
lyweds?" asked Mr. Polk, as Byrd
was tearing.
Byrd shook her head.
"Don't worry about them," he
laughed. "I was sworn to secrecy,
but I think I can tell you now.
They came to me for my blessings!
I wired your father for his con
sent, saying that I approred.
That's how they were able to get
a license."
Three days later around noon.
Maady came running upstairs in
great excitement.
"Shut yo' face. Mis' Browning,"
she exclaimed, breathlessly and
completely at a loss for words.
"For Pete's saks, what's hap
pened. Mandy?" asked Byrd.
But Byrd had to wait until Man
dy got her second wind.
"Miss Pat and Mr. Everson done
come back," she finally blurted
out.
Now Byrd heard them in the
hall4 downstairs, halooing like a
pair o( wild Indians.-
Byrd hurried down and fell Into
their anna.
"We're back, darlin.' " eried
Pat. in high excitement. "Glad to
see us? How did moms take the
fatality? Heard from dad yet?
When's Larry coming back?"
"Sounds like a machine gun.
grinned Chet.
"How do I look after four days
of married life." continued Pat,
without taking- a breath. "Befort
marriage" here she looked
sweetly innocent, "after marriaga
" she looked haggard and worn
"Moms couldn't get over the
Idea that you must have lied about
your age," said Byrd.
"Where there's a will, there's a
loophole." said Chet, smartly.
"Ain't he bright?" smiled Pat
fondly.
Pat grabbed Chefs arm. cling
ing with a cloyingly sweet, kitten
ish expression.
"This is the way we looked
when we had our pictures taken
at Niagra Falls." she giggled. Eye
ing Byrd's incredulous look.
"Honest, on your tintype! I mean
on ours!"
"Now listen." said Chet. "let's
talk orer our plans with Byrd."
"Let's hare lunch first," said
Byrd. "you both sound light
headed from lack of food. Put
your kiddie kar Into the garage
and lunch'Il be ready."
Chet went out through the kit
chen door.
"Pat, I'm so glad you choa-i
Chet for your first husband." said
Byrd smiling at them across the
table. "I think you're both craty
as bats, but I think you're both
going to be happy."
" 'S wonderful!
'S marvelous!
You should care for me!"
Pat sang in her high, squeaky.
soprano and ran around the table
to kiss Chefs ear.
"What a pair you are!" said
Byrd. her eyes suddenly filling
with tears.
"Now what's the matter, 'what
lit'?" asked Pat, struck by Byrd's
sudden change of expression.
Berfore Byrd could control her
self she had laid her head right
down in the dessert plate and
cried.
Then piecemeal, they got the
whole story of that awful night
of Larry's departure.
During the telling. Pat had got
ten out of her chair and stood
leaning orer the table In wide
eyed astonishment.
Now suddenly she sat down with
a thump, as If there were no chair
under her.
After the shock of the news.
they talked and talked.
Pat suggested a hundred plans,
all of which either Byrd or Che;
repudiated.
Pat repeated her 'original sug
gestion that she and Chet buy
the house in order to make a home
for Byrd.
"That's what she did for me."
she repeated, stubbornly. "You're
not going to worry about a home.
Our kitchen sink is going to be
your kitchen sink and our broom
closet is going to be your broom
closet."
Byrd had to laugh at this com
ical young bride.
"When I peel potatoes. Ruth, or
Naomi. I forget who said it. there
shall you be also peellag potatoes"
continued Pat. grandiloquently.
"No." said Byrd. practically.
'you're going to hare to do your
own housework. Snooks."
Chefs mother expected Pat and
Chet for dinner, and they insisted
that Byrd go with them.
But Byrd declined.
"I're got to get used to being
alone." she said ruefully.
Before his marriage. Chet had
lired with his parents on old
Prospect street, in an old brick
house that they bad occupied erer
since their marriage, and Chet and
Pat were going to stay there uattl
they found an apartment.
Byrd scoffed at the Idea that
they come orer and stay with her
nights.
She had dinner alone.
After dinner she went around
the house making out lists of art
icles she intended to send to the
storage company.
She slipped into her pajamas
early and sat looking out into the
diamond-pointed hearens. Then
she got up and turned down the
corers of her bed. She tried not to
look at the empty bed across the
room. With tight lips that kept
moring under her little white
teeth, she tried to keep dry-eyed.
Everything about the room
seemed to reproach her. That oth
er debt, with Its smooth pongee
cover, stretched straight and un
wrinkled. No, she decided, she couldn't
sleep in that room again.
She stepped into her bedroom
slippers and went across the hall
ito the guest room.

and men are reducing their weight by starva
tion diets. This has gone too far, they say,
and in many cases is resulting in permanent
injury.
One famous doctor says: "Starring leads
to anemia, which may become so persistent
that the tissues are no longer able to form
blood in the proper way, even when sufficient
food is subsequently supplied to them, and a state of actual starva
tion throughout life may result." "This," he goes on to say, ia
because Tnyrricthud"wliich defeats naluo,-ieng -rrrld prp

Another error if the belief by some that sugar in the diet is
the only cause of overweight. This is not true. Any food that is
nourishing , is fattening and nature should be allowed to store a,
certain amount. of fat in the tissues as a reserve supply of energy
when it Is needed. Don't undereat; it is dangerous. Eat enough
of a great variety of foods and enjoy them. Remember that noth
ing adds so much enjoyment to other foods as sugar. Sweetness
is nature's ideal flavor aad modern sugar isfood in its least ex
pensive form. Put one cup of sugar in the. water used for boiling .
ham and notice the improvement in appetizing flavor. Be sure of '
tasteful variety in food. The Sugar Institute.
