Olorla Oordon'a mother waa a

Now aha hung Uie dreaa neatly In

"Dear ma, Olory," aho fretted, "I
don't know how you're ever going to
get along without me to take care of
you, when ynu'ro married and gone!"
"Don't you worry about me," the
girl answered, "I'll be taken core of

"I had different Idena when I waa

Well, she would keep lii'k running

"IHck!" aha railed softly from the

Gloria said. "1 juat can't, li wouldn't

me to do such a horrid thing!"
Without aiiHwerlng, 1 ick crossed
the lawn and started his car,
Gloria Iny In bed listening to the
sound of It. tShe heard It for a long
time, aud she knew that lick had
gone out on tho avenue, to take one
last look at the limine he had built
for her.
What a hoy he wn!
At twenty, nlie wan more worldly

years and hifl reputation as a lawyer.
He wan like wax in her hand). She
rould make him utterly miserable by
refusing him a kiss. And when she
was tendnr he would willingly go
through fire and water for her! He
said so,
.... When she did JUhh him. she
was never thrilled by It. What ex
cited her waa the power that kisi
gave her over him ! v
Yes, Hick was mad about her. He
would give her anything she nuked
for. And she wan not going to be
slow in asking for the thinks she
wanted , , . leisure, love and luxury.
It ii t above all, luxury!
L Gloria's first thought the next
morning was "This is my wedding
day.
Her second was "This Is the last

They ate in ipiaint little French
restaurants.
And (iloria shopped!
She bought bends anil enrrings and
more than a dozen bottle of French
perfume, w!iile Dirk stayed In the
hotel reading.
(iloria had never known anyone who
read so much as he.
"For a rising young lawyer, you're
unite n high-brow, it seems to me,"
she snid one morning.
She was lyiuvr bnck in n long chair
while the hotel hair-dresser marcelled
her reddish gold h.iir. She laughed
almost scornfully.
Dick made no answer. He sat
morning I shall have to wake up in j down mid picked up a book, only to
this dingy old room, thank good

She hated everything in it, from
the battered brass bed to the imita
tion ivory toilet set. j
Ity tomorrow morning sho would
be the wife of a man who could buy
her wonderful things .... a toilet
set of silver, perfumes, lacy hand
kerchiefs, chiffon stockings too thin
ever to be mended!
She had made up her mind that
her honeymoon would he a shopping
trip, too. With IMck to pay tho bills!
"Sweetheart," Hick had said, "let's
honeymoon in some quiet place where
wo can be alone." Hut she had
laughed him to scorn.
"Don't you know you can be lone
lier in a big city than anywhere else
In the world, silly V" she had asked.
"I've decided on Montreal. It's ro
mantic, but it's full of lovely shops
and restaurants. And we shall stop
at the ltitit .... and be very smart
and Ititxy!"
1 bck had laughed. Ami she had
her way.
So when n certain train rolled
across the country that November
night, Mr. and Mrs. ltiehnrd Gregory
were on it. Their drawing room was
packed with brides' rose.
"You're like n rose, yourself, my
little Glory! All mine at last!" Dick
murmured. His arms held her close.

"Ity the way. I'll need a cook right

After dinner she nod Hick walked
home to the new house. It was white

among the everKl'eens that surround

Instantly he wns beside her bed

fumed hnir.
"Pnrling. I was a brute to do it. but
I'd nlwnys heard that ice wnter wan
a sure cure for hysterics ..."
Hick stopped talking nud tint n
finger to his lipa in warning. Krom
the stairway came the tinkle of dishes
and the aromatic uracil of fresh cof
fee. Maggie, Mother (iregory'a maid,
walked into the room carrying a huge
tray!
"Here nhe in! The world's best
cook. Hick nnid with a flourish,',
"Mother has promised to lend Maggie I
to us for a few weeks, until jou get
your bearings, Glory."
"Indeed. 1 wanted to come, Mr.
Pick," Maggie nnid heartily.
"I phoned Mother last night that
you were ill. and Maggie came over
first thing thin morning." Hick ex
plained when the door had closed upon
Maggie's broad back. "And she sent
word that you were not to worry
about her. She says nhe can get
along beautifully, alone, for n few
weeks."
It had not occurred to Oloria to
worry about Pick'a mother in a maid
lesn house. She neetned no large and
capable ... so adequate to any of the
small worries of life.
...
There was breakfast for two on
the big tray . . . chilled grapefruit,
shirred .eggs, and coffee with thick
cream.
(iloria beomed nt Pick over the
rim of her cup. Her eyes were soft
as a child's, once more.
"Parling, I won drendful last night,
wasn't I V Tell me I don't denerve
nuch a duck nf a husband," she cooed.
She patted Pick'n big hand. She was
yielding and adorable now thnt she
actually had a cook in the hotine.
For she had had her own way, an
nhe nlwaya hnd nince the dny she won
born!
"I'm afraid my Glory Is a spoiled
child," Pick nnid, but his voice wns
deep with love.
"Next time she has a tantrum I'm
lining downtown and play poker all
night with the boys." he finished.
Gloria gave a gasp of surprise.
This from Pick!
".lust you try staying out nights!"
she cried. ".lust you try to pull any
thing like thnt on me! Do you know
whnt I'll do?"
