It was a mouth after their mar

to interrupt that current of romance
down which they had been sailing
ever since they became conscious that
they loved. But there is always a be

went out with him. If he preferred to
stay at home she stayed home with
him. It seemed to her that there was I
scarcely an hour In the day that she
was not working for him.
And he? He went down to buninetis

why garments never grew smaller, so
that those purchased the year before
