When he leaves to go overseas in the World War. he reveals to Fanny lor the first time that he loves her. Amelia, David's sister, marries Clark Smith, a war co--r-tpotidcnt. Chapter 8 ' "" . ; O THE ENEMY STRIKES pI.ARK SMITH was tho son ol a Washington patent '0wyer ot national reputation and of Greater social of importance (outside (oughbarre) tlgn the Frosts and llio iQiwnbocks. He was a young man with much charm, real strength ot character and every oi-omise of making good in his '.hnsen career. g'lt because Clr;'s parents were :lviug apart, Mrs. Krost vigorously opposed the marriage, and felt that ihe had'been stabbed In tho back when her brother and David, after mature deliberation, 't her objec tion aside. o Now that Amelia had left her, Mrs. Frost decided David and Fanny must come back! Now she could never bear that big luuse, ghostly with memories. David looked white and drawn with Fanny's cooking, no wonder he would be far better oft In his old home; Sheila would be better off. And as for Fanny well, Fanty knew that David had certain defi nite obligations when she married hii. What obligation couli be more binding to a son than his wlHnwfH mnthflr? Ttifl flraf hlnor fnll ottniit th naP weeks after Amelia's wedding. Things had been going better In the little cottage. David had had an other small raise. He came home late one hot afternoon in early July to find an expectant wife and daughter In fresh white dresses, a flower-decked table set under the arbor, his favorite dishes for din er. But he said little, ate altftst nothing. After the table was cleared and Sheila put to bed Fanny asked David timidly any thing was wrong. "I'm afraid there is. '.Do you know anything about these?" , "Why, those are the bills for my bridesmaid's outfit." "Well?" o "But why have they come to you? Amelia gave me the dress, hat, everything." "Mother doesn't seenPto think so at least she said they were your bills." "David, Amrlla certainly gave the things to me. She picked them out hereelf even the slippers. I want ed gold ones but she chose blonde satin sod could wear them both afternoon and evening." "Did sbe say she gavo them to you? Exactly what did she say?" "I don't remember the actual words, but she told me 1 was to be her only bridesmaid and was to wear yellow chiffon that she'd see about my dress." "Then she didn't say she'd pay dor it?" o "That was understood. Amelia kfjw 1 couldn't afford an expensive drefs. I thought Ihe hat was too much, twenty-seven dollars, but Amelia said It was so becoming I had to havo it." Fanny might have added that Amelia had also said that it was high time she had org decent outfit. ' O Did Amelia charge the tilings or what?" "Amelia had accounts all over town. She was buying a lot of things and she'd Just say. 'ff.nA this to Mrs. David,- or 'Send this lo me.' qSIio must have forgotlen to tell your mother about It. I'll write her tomorrow." "I'd rather you wouldn't." "But we'll have to we haven't S.V "Mother was very ccrlaln they were your bills. She told mo today she was overdrawn at thiOiank. She said she would never have had the house repapered and ordered that new bathroom put in If she'd known Amelia was going to be married. BEAUTY by AAATEL HOWE FARNHAM I can't have her stinting herself to pay for your clothes or let Amelia ask Clark to pay." Fanny winked back her tears, glad ot the growing twilight. She suspected that David did not alto gether believe her story, but did not dare make sure. It wasn't fair of David it was frightfully unfair to think that she would tell lies about big things, or about things that really mattered. Just because, once or twice, she had left', a tew little fibs about bills to keep David from worrying. Or had she fibbed to David because she was afraid of him? David loved her; he was impa tient at times, but bo was alvgiys sorry atterward, and ha was never cutting or sarcastic except In fun. II was his silences, his habit of with drawing into himself that fright ened her. Her own angers were quick but soon ended an occasional boiling over and letting off steam thnl cleared the atmosphere and left no dregs. David took his angers hard, as he took life hard. When he was offended it was as if a changeling came and dwelt in his place. A stranger In David's dear image sat opposite her at table, talked to her, kissed her goodby; a stranger who was devastatingly pollto, devastat ingly considerate. He might stay for hours or days and then some morning Fanny would wake for lornly to find she had been for-given-he hated changeling was gone and her darling David back. Fanny was guiltless In the matter of the bridesmaid's dross and knew she ought to h;Se it out with her husband. But she loved him too entirely to bo able to punish him. The second blow fell long before the bridesniaid'Cdress was paid for. Fanny wakened one week day morning- to find the sunshine pouring 1 and the clock striking eight. "David darling, we've slept right through the alarm, it's eight we must rush." "No hurry I didn't set the alarm." "You didn't? But why?" "If you must know I lost my Job three days ago." "And you didn't tell mo?" "I didn't want you to worry. ) thought I'd land another, porhapt a better one, before I told you." Fanny laid her cheek agalnsl David's, kissed him over and over David suffered the caress but did not return it. . "A fine man y,ou married," ht said bitterly. "Darling, don't be silly. Just be cause that wretch Jim Tuttle is Jealous of you." "I'm igrtaln Jim hadn't a thing to do with It ho was too surprised. It wa3 Mr. Tuttle." "The hypocrite! What excuse did he give?" None at all. He wrole me a formal note enclosing a month's salary In lieu of notice, and then went out of town." When Fanny bad given Sheila hor breakfast and started the coffee she came back and sat on tho edge of tho bed. ftivfd had not moved. "Darjjng, has It occurred 40 yuu that your uncle may be back of this?" ' "Yes. At least ho'Ogot tho town sewed iu so that f'll havo to go back to The bank or starve." "Nonsense. Jt's terribly (loiter ing ot course, the trouble your uncle takes UO force you to come back, but because his horizon Is limited Is no reason why ours should be. Thoro are thousands of towns outside ot Cloughliarre where they're looking for men of your ability." "My ability? After lour years I workOJ up to about the wago a day laborer 'arls with. Plasterers and plumbers anil palntors make double and havo no trouble holding down their Jo." "Poor lamb, you're morbid. You know as well as I do that you've been discriminated against here. Mr. Tuttle never paid you what you were worth because he knew there (Jasn't any other place In town open to you. With a wlfo and baby on your hands, naturally you haven't felt freo to sttlke out and try some placo elso. That's what your uuclo's counting on. Now If? up to us to show him what's In us."
