XKj put them on. She slid her wrist
Mtch under ber pillow.
Then she looked up at Dick. There
wfl8 scorn written in the lovely depths
0f her eyea. .
"So you knew when you came into I
this room that I'd been with Stan
the day of the wreeli!" she said. "And
jou set a trap for me!"
0f course I knew. The minute
I savr bis initials on the etgarei ease
I knew." lick answered grimly. "I
ish 1 had the fellow by the throat
this minute!" He made a twisting
Huwement with Ms bands.
"Pick, please don't get excited over j
till?. ucte o cqiij mue o
it:" Gloria pleaded. "I told Stan
that day that I was never going to
tee him again. Truly I did . . .
iwd, anyway, he's going to New York
soon-
Dick stared out of the window at
the housetops across the street, lie
jerked his bead foward them.
J wonder if any of the men who
hVe m those nouses nare wives uke
you, Gloria," be said. "I wonder if
their wives are the kind who refuse
to bare children, who go tearing
around with other menf who never
slay at home . .. who don't even
fcnow how to make a borne. . .
"well, it's their own fanit if they
have !" Gloria cried shrilly. 'It's
their own fault!"
Dick turned toward her.
"How do you mean, it's their own
fault?" be asked sharply. "I sup
pose you mean na my inult that
yuuVe been stepping out with this
Wayburn? Because you have, of,
course!"
"Yes, Gloria answered boldly. ' I1
have. And 1 11 tell you why I have,
if you want to know . . , because he
knows how to be a pal to me, and
tou don't!'
Pick said nothing. There was a
white line around his lips. And a :
fine sweat came out on his forehead.
"No, you don't!" Gloria repeated
is if she were arguing with him. lou
think that because you ve gven me
a roof over my head and paid the
bills you've done your , husbandly
duty."
She paused for breath.
"Well, you've kept me pretty busy
paying your bills," Dick said. "Al
though I wouldn't mention the fact
if you hadn't brought it up."
Gloria flushed.
"You kick every time I ask you
to take me out to a dance or to a
picture show," she went on. "Your
idea of the end of a perfect day is
' to go to sleep over the newspaper
every night! And I can piist sit
there and twiddle my thumbs. I sup
pose? . . . Well, I'm not going to!
Not if I see myself first!"
"If I go to sleep over (he news
paper it's because I'm dog-tired after
by day's work,1' IHek answered. "And
if you did your housework, as yon
should, instead of lying in bed till
ii"on every day, you'd he pretty fired
yourself at night. Other women don't
want to be gadding every night in the
week, I notice."
Gloria pulled her bine silk bed
jrket around her shoulders. - -M'ith
iier uninjured Jinn she picked up ber
Imnd-mivror from the table at the
side of her hed. She smiled into it.
"Other women! T should worry
about other women!" she said se
renely. -
She turned so fbat Pick could see
her face snuggled against the pillows,
in its hnlo of short, red-gold hair.
She moiled at him with teasing sweet
ness. The corners of her lips tilted
up like the wings of a flying birr!.
t "Other women arent as pretty as
I am," she said bluntly. "Most of
them are mighty lucky to have bus
hands. And they know it. They
work hard to bold them . . . but I
don't have to! I don't even need a
husband! You know, Hikky, that
any stage-manager in the country
would be glad to give me a job, drtti't
yon?"
"Yes. I do," Dick answered truth
fully. You're far and away the best
looking girl I've ever seen. But you
remember what happened to IMen of
Troy. In the end she was doggoned
glad to sneak home to the old hus
band!" "Yen, hut she's had her good time
first!" Gloria said brightening, "And
you'd better trest me gently Pick.
fr you'll wake up one of these morn
ings and find me gone."
"Treat yon gently . . ." Pick groan
ed. "As if I've ever treated ymi any
other way! Sometimes f think that
'f I'd pulled a little of the caveman
tnff oa you, you'd been a better
wife. , . ,

"See here. Gloria." he said after
a moment, "I want you in tell me

Gloria widened her. eyes at htm.

Suddenly Gloria put her Read dfrwn o
her heart would break.
I knew I was lying under the car
half dead. , . .M
She began to cry weakly.
Ilick put his arms around her very
gently.
He could feel the beaiine of ber
heart. It fluttered like a frightened
... tt .omiwl tn htm
"And then you talk to me as if
I was a bad woman!" she sobbed.
"Just because I want to jazz around
and have a little fun. . . ."
Pick patted her round shoulder.
When be spoke his voice was harsh.
His eyes were filled with passion and
tenderness.
"Poor little kiddle!" he said. "I'm
sorry." .
It was not until he was half way
home . . . away from the warmth and
perfume of her . . . that he began to
doubt what Gloria had told him. She
had lied to him so often!
That night Gloria lay In bed think
ing over what she had told Pick about
Wayburn,
She had told bins the truth. But
not the whole truth! Far from it!
She had not told him that Wayburn
had kissed her dozens of times.
She had not told him that the reas
on she had struck Wayburn that day
in her car was not because he had
fried to make Jove to her . . . but
because she was afraid of his love
ranking when he had been drinking!
Above all, she had not told him
that she had given Wayburn $200 of
Pick's own money! Money that he
would probably never pay back!
Ten days later, when Gloria left
the hospital, her own little blue car
stood at the curb waiting for her.
1 It looked as good as new.
! Gloria shuddered when she saw it.
"I don't know whetln-r I have nerve
j enough to ride borne in it or not!"
; she said shakily to Pick.
"Sure you have. Hop in," Pick
encouraged her. "Your nerves are
'jnmpv. You'll be. all right pre
I soon. Poc Seymour wants me to
iawnv for a bmg rest. Well go
i get her, you and I, nc both need
: J-" I
j He started the car.
I "Perhaps mother!! go along with
i us." Pick said, as the car rolled
; slowly along. ' She looks pretty seedy ;
; after that operation of hers." !
"Just you dare to ask your mother
to go anywhere with us!" Gloria s
j eyes Hashed. "I'd rather stay in this
; town all my life than go anywhere;
1 with your mother!" i
) Pick tried to change the subject. (
j "We may not go anywhere our-
j selves," be said. "We've spent so ;
much money on doctors and nurses ;
fand hospitals this month that we J
won't have much left to go gadding
: around the country, I guess. Your f
bill at the hospital was l-''.V I just j
J paid it."
1 "Oh sure, tell me what my Mil J
; was! Hub it in!" Gloria cried. "Why j
' don't vou talk about the money you.
1 paid Mrs. O'Hnra and Poc Seymour j
1 for your own sickness! I get tired j

The thought of them brought Stan

Where had he gone?

Suddenly Gloria nut her head down

if her heart would break.
