Her voice dropped persuasive ly. "Coma now, old dear, there are hundred! of married women still at their Jobs, doubling their husband's Incomes for them, giving them a chance of a bit of fun when they get home at night Instead of mow ing the lawn or mending the wire less." "I get my fun flying. When I'm not Dying i want a borne." For a second there bung before Georgle'e mind the picture of a little bouse: windows open to, the aun, gay curtains swinging. A borne . . . And then ber vision abltted to tbe place of all others that seomed most to stand for "her Job" bei own private room at the Matching bead-office. She saw again her desk with Its telepbones and bell-pushes, the plgeoo-bole Into which she thrust her big weekly check. It waa to tbe second picture that aha clung.

"You'd get your tun flying, Ed That's tbe gist of It For me. there'd be nothing to do but count the pen nlea while you were away and help you count them when you were home. You can't ask It of me!

"And I suppose the superintendent at your apartment phones on any message from the Old Man?" She was sbaklpg ber head, laugh lng softly. "You Innocent! Much chance I'd hare that way of keeping my mar rlage secret! No, It's Jenny who will go to a hotel for a bit and let us have the apartment to ourselves till you go. I can tlx It all up." She came round the desk and close to him, laughing up Into bis sulky eyes. "It's so simple, dear stupid, and ao heavenly nice!" The blood mounted In bis face and he caught at her arm.
