But" Ilis sudden relief brought resent ment with it, "Then," he said, "sup pose wo take a shot nt being sensi ble for a moment or two and stop talking like characters in an O'Xvill play. If you aren't married, and you care for me as you seemed to not so long ago, there is no reason on earth why we can't be married and soon." ''Yes," she snid. "there are ever so many reasons." She spoke in a small, conventional voice, ns if she were making chatty conversation with a stranger who wns, alwra all things, a stickler for the wholly sensible. "You Bee, I happen to be one of the heads of a household. If you were married now, and had a family, you couldn't desert them all and marry me at once." "Cecily, darling, what Is the mat ter? I'm not married. You aren't married." "But it is much the same. Ann and I hare often said so. You see, Ann nnd I love each other more than man.. married people do, I am sure. And we've shared everything, including responsibilities and clothes, and hopes, and work, and fun, and money, and everything, since well, since mother nnd father died." "Cecily, sweet," he objected, "yon aren't going sentimental, are you, nnd self-sacrificial and pll thntV" "If it is sentimental to pay the gro cer nnd the butcher, and see that the family has a place to live, and that Mary-Frances has an education, I've gone already, years ago. Ann makes $25 a week. I make $30. It takes every cent of ;t " "But; darling." he interrupted, "never mind nbout that. It is you, qua yon, in whom I'm interested. You don't love Ann more than you do me, do you?" "It is entirely different," she said, nnd added irrelevantly, "Ann didn't rush off and marry Pliil the minute he asked her. They have been en gaged for eight years." . He simulated a shudder. "Hear me, you woman person. I'm not going to wait eight years nor eight months, nor eight weeks for you."
