"Hello, sir?"

"Only Just gone," remarked GUI,
after long thought,
"S'pose so." Eddie sighed and
shuffled. "I got lonesome. Want
a match, too. Couldn't find ' any

blm, he presently turned and ascend

"There's a chair for yon In the
office," Gill called after him, In a
. burst of garrulity; but Eddie plod
ded on and up. Exactly, thought
, Georgle, as she herself had plodded,
very step an effort! "We're both
frightened, frightened of everything
, and, oh, It's such a heartbreaking
pity when we were going to be so
happy!" she said aloud. But she had
no mora time tor sorrow, she went
firmly back to the apartment.
She sang persistently and cheer
fully as she burst Into her bedroom
and threw her bat on the bed. She
.. had left all doors open behind her
and she could hear Eddie's hesltat
: lng return.
"That yon, dear boy? Come and
welcome me home!"
, "Girl!"
He came crashing across tbe
room, a big, eager man, and swept
ber up and Into his arms. She shut
her eyes as they kissed and all was
. forgotten save the ecstasy of this
homecoming.
' "Oh, girl, my girl! Jenny said you
wouldn't be here till the end of the
week!"
She freed herself, breathless, ra
diant. "I didn't think I should be, but at
the last moment the Old Man called
the doal off and we came back. He
has kept me slaving all day or I'd
have been here before. Ed, what do
yon think of all this?"
"All what?"
"Well, the apartment darling, and
all the new furniture."
The light In Eddie's eyes dimmed.
"Isn't It perfect!" she urged. "I
wanted It to be perfect for us to
come back to and It was such a
' shame that you had to see it when
I wasn't even there to load you
home and that wa couldn't have the
triumphal arches and all the Illum
inated addresses as I'd planned!
Everything went wrong, didn't It?
but It's all right now. It It perfect
and we are In It together."
He nodded and sat down on the
eatln-covercd stool before the long

Man bis temper these last days
bas really been worth preserving
as a museum-piece, too utterly aw
ful for words. As things are, I've
got to go gingerly with him."
"As things are? What does that
mean, 'as things are'?"
"Well, dear boy " Sbe broke off,
her perplexity growing. Then, as
she saw that he was scowling, her
uncertain mood changedalso. "Well,
dear boy, someone baa got to keep
the pot boiling and I seem to recol
lect that we agreed It should be
me?"
"Then we can change our minds,"
snapped Eddie. "My wife doesn't
pay for a lot of new furniture at the
expense of her health and don't you
reckon otherwise! You'll choose be
tween me and your Job, my girl, and
you'll choose now."
Georgle was too tittorly dismayed
to do anything but swire. This, sha
considered, was the last straw to
have to fight for her freedom to
work, against the prejudices of a
man who would, quite likely, bs able
to work no more! For the vitality
and the youth had faded from Ed
die's face and he was very clearly a
man with frightened eyes and Jerky
hands a man no longer fit for his
Job.
"Go Into the living room, old
dear," aha suggested, "and as soon
aa I'm clean and rested, wa can
talk."
"I don't see that there's anything
to talk about It's the Job or me."
"I must rest and change," sha In
sisted and after a momoment's Inde
cision he nodded and went Into tha
adjoining room.
Sha dropped o.. to tbe dressing
table bench and passed a hand over
her face. Oh. but she waa tired.

get bark her nervous energy she
would have to argue and cajolo and
plead!
