For the next week Gloria racked her brain, wondering how she was go xi to get hold of at least $200 for Stanley Wayburn. She looked at her engagement ring, her wrist watch, and the little plnti- :am bracelet Dick had given her for rhrittmas. She wondered how mucn titer would bring if she pawned them. And besides, she bated tne tnougnt ming up her jewelry. There must be some other way the could get the money. . . . She was wondering about it one tftirooon, as she sat beside Dick. "A penny for your thoughts, Glory," be said suddenly. He sat up in bed, and the book that he had been reading tumbled to the floor. Gloria bent to pick it up. fcbe latd on tha counterpane. Instantly Dick's arms were around her. Gloria wrenched herselt out of them, and stood up. "Don't do that!" she cried snarpiy. "Let me alone!" The look of tenderness that had been in Dick's eyes, was blotted out. Gloria knew that she had cut him to the heart when she had snatched herself away from him. But she In't care. "Can't I kiss you any more, Glory?" Dick asked. "After all, TooVe my wife, you know." Tm, but I belong to myself nrst: Gloria snswered. "And I don't want ro be kissed right this minute, as it happens." The minute she had said it sne m sorry. How could she have been so brutal to Dick when he was still so weak and sick? It was not his fault 'bat she had married him. without bring sure of herself. His only crime had been that he loved her too well. 'Don't mind what I say, todsy.

Beatrice Burton was addressed In Dick's ftns dashing warm nearness of her made his head go round- But he clenched bis hands at his sides, until the nails bit into his palms. "I'm tired," he said. "I think I'll go to sleep for a while. Perhaps you'd better go." And to his relief, Gloria went Dick beard the door of her room close, and the bolt slide into place. That night Gloria sat for a long time before her mirror. "How long am I going on like this?" she asked her own face, as it glim mered at her from the silver depths of the looking-glass. She, couldn't go on being Diekfc wife! Not while she felt as she did about Stanley Wajburn, at any rate. That much was certain. She iound herself facing a prob lem that women have faced since this world began. She was chained to one man. And she was sure she loved another! What was she going to do about it? Wasn't there some way out of it? There must be! 1 She knew Dick would never let her go without a struggle. Of course, she could always go back to work. But she shuddered at the thought of getting tip at seven every morning, of gulping down a cup of coffee, and dualling downtown to hammer her fin gern off on a typewriter nil dny. Vgh, she had had enough of that! It was worse than housework. That wasn't what she wanted to do. Not by a long chalk! There was a verse pasted on her mirror. Gloria raised her eyes to read it, although Phe knew it by heart: "Life Is but onee, Drink the cup, Wear the roses, Live the verses." That was Gloria's creed. Phe be lieved in getting all the happiness there was ... to the last drop! IShe simply was not going to be harnessed to hard work and dullness if there was ony way out! She wonted laughter, dancing, mil sipthe inzz of life. In her mind. : Stanley Wayburn stood for those j things. i When she thought of Dick she I thmieht of meals to be cooked, socks to be darned, bills to be paid, long dull evenings by the living-room fire. He stood for Marriage. ... And Gloria was hick ami ur nt married life. "If I'd only known what it was like, I'll bet a hat I'd mill he single!" she nid to her fnre in the glass. It looked bark at her with brilliant, un- happy eyes. ;inria was struck again with the fart of hr own good looks. Why. she didn't need any man! Not Dick, nor Stan Wayburn. either! , . .

May shook her hed in a puzeled sort of way. "Heavens, no, I haven't one sou to lend anybody," she said. "I've just been wondering when they're going to throw me into jail for debt . . . What do you need money for?" Gloria flushed. She bit off a hang nail, nervously, before she answered. She wondered if May divined that she wanted the money for Wayburn. "What does anybody need money for?" she asked, shrugging her shoulders. May sat looking at her with nar rowed eyes. "Give me the low-down on this," fhe said at last. "If you just wanted this money for clothes you'd nsk Dick for it, I know. What mischief have you been up to? ..." She broke off suddenly. Gloria's face was rrd with anger. "Well, you're a fine friend ! she cried. "I lower my pride to ask you for a loan. And all you can do is to pry into my affairs, instend of lend ing me a little. You make me sick, May!" That afternoon when Gloria went into Dick's room to Bit with him, he held a letter out to her. "Would you mind running dawn to the corner lo mail this for me?" he asked. Gloria looked at the letter. It was addressed in Dick's fine daubing hand to "Miss Susan Itriggs." (To Be Continued) I Cynthia Grey Says: . By CYNTHIA GREY ITBASMU8 long ago wrote book in praise of Folly.

On Gardening ,rVUE oft-repeated advice that a 1 flower tjiirdeu is a boruer to ' frame a lawn may be disregarded In the 50-foot lot. In the first placA 1 there isn't room enough in the back i yard garden, to provide a hfwa worth . naming. Bisides, tbe front yard of fers -.fic;ent dibpiay of lawn aa the proper'- is usually laid out. It ia a very effectivo plan to make tbs entire back yard a flower garden of formal plan with tha lawn feature restricted to grass paths from two to tbree feet wide among tbe beds. Such a flower garuVu covering the entire back yard area of about 60 square feet Is a very pleasing and handsome picture and quite as effective as de signs which call for a pocket hand kerchief luwn in tbe center. A flower lover will be auiased at the number of plants such a garden will accommodate even with a bordvr planting of shrubbery. There Is op portunity for a vast deal of color scheming and arranging the plants in order to provide a succession of bloom from spring until fall. Utilising- the entire space gives t series of beds, either In circular, Tec tangulur or actagonal patterns, if desired, which will give the ingenuity of the owner full play. This wlUMie needed in arranging groups of pereu n tills in the bays between the shrubs. A plsu of gruupiug which will give a succession might be bated thus a plaut blooming in May, June, July, August und Heptembur to a gruop and a series of such groups. Or it might be altered to single groups of each plant. For instance, the first could bo planned thus by months, pyretb rum, delphinium, Shasta daisy, phlox, perennial aster, and add a chrysan themum. These six perennials could be arranged in groups to give a pro gression about the boundary beds. Or groups to be altered would give a continuous di"pl all season. ThU could be supplemented by gladiolus bulbs. I Home Hints j Koep,Them Closed Always keep the flour barrel, su- gar bucket, baking powder can and such containers tightly closed.

And that is some triumph, because while the general public Is keen to welcome anything good that our coun try sends over, many of the dramatic critics seem to think they must he super-patriots and knock at the slightest opportunity, But the fact remains that the three outstanding musical successes of the Iondon season are three showa from America "Rose Marie," "No No Nanette" and "Tell Me More."

(41) Five thousand children attended a spi'cinl in tins In the cathedral here re cently, when prayers were offered for a ressstton of the plague of scorpions which has invaded this district. From the thousands of dead Insects which have been brought In to the municipal authorities attempts are be- lug made to produce a srum against the poisonous sting of the hairy cre ature,. Ten thousand lire scorpions have been shipped to the federal de partment of health. The fact that a majority of the poorer claws houses In Durango and nearby villains are constructed of ad obe bricks and unplastered is believed to account for Hie plague, as the cracks between the bricks offer Ideal breeding places. Another theory Is that myriads of scorpions have been driven from the nearby hills by the recent earthquakes. Step Ft; Loo?? hr ADVENTURES Drawing by U W.
