"There la noth ing the least Mt shocking about what we’re doing.” "Only, you are going to live there be fore we arc married," said Joan with embarrassment "That might bo funny." "We don’t have to tell every agent our plans,” Andrew assured her. “And when we have definitely settled on tbe apartment we can explain matters and there won’t be anything surpris ing about It” * It was late winter and Andrew and Joan did not Intend to be married until tbe following autumn. Mean time they had decided that they ought 1 to select their apartment now wMIe | they would have a wider selection i than In the autumn. As a matter of economy Andrew would make bls 1 bachelor home here until autumn. : cooking his own breakfasts by way of economy and dln|ng at an Inezpen- alvo restaurant when be did not dine at Joan’s home. Tbe apartment that they finally agreed upon was two flights up In a bouse without sn elevator. It was a back apartment, with two windows looking out on a rather pleasant back yard and with the reel of the window* on a court The rent was—oh, very little fbr these days—even lees than Joan and Andrew had planned tn their moat frugal momenta "We’ll make the kitchen tbe main room—we’ll eat there and I’U have tbe walls painted a cheerful yellow, with blue and white gingham curtains at the window. Well bave a nice Mg bedroom—eo two rooms ought to be enough. Then we won't ever have to worry about living beyond our Income and we can save a little besides." By way of answer Andrew pressed Joan's warm little hand. "There aren't many girls like yon, Joan,” be said. “You don't seem to care a bit about money." "1 doni." said Joan with Interest "In fact, Andrew, I’ve always looked forward to starting married life just like thia That's one of tbe things that makes marrying you so nice. Of course I love you. but I'm eo glad you aren’t rich. And 1 want to start in eating In the kitchen tbe way moth er and father did. I can Just see that little kitchen, after you've painted the walls yellow and I’ve made the blue and white curtains lor the windows." Soon after that Andrew signed a year's lease for the little apartment, and having sent on a couch, a bed, a bureau, a kitchen table and a few cooking utensils, started in keeping bachelor's ball by himself. The weeks passed slowly enough through the long summer, and tbe first glorious days of autumn. There were days when he did not see Joan even for a minute days even when he did not have time to write to her or to telephone to her. but Joan bottled up ber disappoint ment. convincing berseli that Andrew really loved ber just tbe same. But aa the time approached for the wedding clearly something was wor rying Andrew. Then one day Joan asked Mm If be would meet her at the apartment. 8he hadn't intended going there at all, but she wanted to send some furniture and she wanted to plan with him where everything should be placed. Then somehow An dre# was urged to disclose the cause of bls anxiety. "1 don't know how you’ll take It Joan," be told her. standing there In the little kitchen. "But I can't keep it from you. You see things took an unexpected turn at the plant For a year or so I’ve been working out a process. I contrived a little appliance and made some changes In the method and—well. It's turned out better than 1 dreamed. In fact It's going to save the company a great deal of money every year. Of course. I have no pat ent on the appliance It was all part of the day s work. Rut they're doing tbe right thing. I've l wen made one of the directors of the concern and they’ve given me a ten-tbousand-dollar bonus, and In place of my regular fifty a week I'm going to get twelve thou sand a year." Andrew told thto as If he were con fessing some misdeed. "It would all here been fine." be said, "only I know bow you feel about money. I know you want to start here In two rooma. eating tn the kitchen. It's been part of your dream. It’s funny, though, having the money come my way when 1 really don't need It or even want It" “But Andrew." she cried, "we could build our own bonne—and sublet tMs and—and Tvs always dreamed of hav ing a house with a sun parlar, and built-in cupboards In the dining room, and a shower bath and a cedar closet In tbe attic and—and—" -Then you’re glad." gasped Andrew with relief. - "Why, of course, you old sweetheart Of course Td ma cry you if you dldnt have a penny, but I’ve always longed for a Utile luxury.” A pleasant way back to Normal Strength O Lies»* Refege Mo shooting to permitted In Krugers National park.
