She Int herself, as she rushed into her tsrk-blne knitted dress, in a dre.im tf liKnse dramatic interest. In the itfin, she wasted away to nothing isd ber husband looked on, wringing lis binds and begcing to be forgiven. Ob the subway she read her morn hr piper. It seemed to her there more than the nual number of iwree stories, althouch goodness hf there were always enough of then. She read them with newly lirpwed interest. Mr. B of River H( drive iris marrying his beautiful Tttttry as soon as his Reno stay u ever. Mrs. W of Yonkers was titthif her decree and shortly there to mirrring a Slavie nobleman. It mi, thought Gypsy, frightening. Kent anybody stay married nowa n! She had never thought of di te, before this, in connection with torn md herself. But her Hloughts rt norbid this morning. "N'onsense. Nothing has happened," told herself, robustly. "Whv, we '"t even had a cross word." No, t the had discovered how angry ran t with Tom. Why, last when Hilda Blanehard had been " P""!ive with hira, she had ten to claw her eyes out and too, for being such a goose. (',0?! GrnT decided, was a jul thin. It was ao unrenson- n siirh a hitter, black emo .i . WM lik' ' '''ease. She had 1,3 , t " tof, wlim Tom m taken era (Irny to lunch. She had told herself, when that incident had blown over, that nothing like this would ever happen to her again. 8he would be calm, judicial, she would use her head instead of her heart. But apparently Tom was the aort of man women ran after. She looked gloomily down a rista in which she rescued him from dozens of affairs. "I can't Btand it!" she told herself, in despair. "I won't." That evening, when Dinah had cleared away and was clattering hap pily in the kitchen, dropping aluminum saucepr.s with vigor and ilamming spoons down upon the metal topped table, the Weavers' "had it out." It all began quietly. Gypsy started it with a remark about Marko. Tom said aometbing cutting, and she flung back at him, all her good resolutions gone. "I noticed Hilda Blanehard held on to you all evening," she said bitterly. "That's good." Tom's face was flushed. "You were listening to every thing that old chap said. Tou didn't pay any attention to me." It was terrible. . .terrible. They quarreled in low voices, so that they should not be heard above Dinah's clamor, but even in tho kitchen, she stopped slamming kettles about and stood to listen, hands akimbo, shaking her woolly head in ssdness. "Such nice young folks, too," Din ah mourned. "I didn't want to go, anyway." Tom stormed. "You made me. It was your Idea. We don't belong with that crowd. We enn't keep up with them." "You liked it well enough, once you were there," ahe reminded hira. "Yon had a good time. You danced... yon flirted..." "What would you have me do?" Tom demnnded. He couldn't, he said. be rude to the girl. She was darned attractive, anyhow. This turned the knife in Gvpsy's side. . "Easy enough for her to be attrac tive," she flared. "She's probably got a personal maid, heaps of clothes, charge accounts everywhere. . ." "Oho, so that's it!" Tom stood up. "I suppose the Idea Is that I'm spoil ing your looks, tying yon down to drudgery." "No... no... I didn't mean that." She began stormily to cry, She was so angry, so furious with everyone, the world. Tom, and herself in ar ticular. What had happened to them both? His manner changed. He eame over and knelt down beside her, taking her small hands In his. He gave her a clean handkerchief. "Don't cry, baby." he said, very gently. "We're both being such fools, and all about nothing." (To Be Continued) N. ews o f Di orena DORENA, Feb. 12. (Special).
