steadying her vurooss to rid her
self by divorce of the rotter Dicky.
It is Olivs whom Santa had
.- thrown over to marry Dicky; it

has loved. Dicky's worldly charm
havs graved too worldly even tor

Chapter IT
MARRIED AGAIN
CLIVE glanced at the closed door
ot their compartment, then at
Banta'i hat-box and auitcase, la
belled Xrs. OHvt Doncaster. Santa,
eated opposite to him, followed hla
(lanes. She had been secretly
amused and touched by him all day,
but hadn't dared show It What a
puzzled, eager boy he was beneath
the surface! Such a relief from
picky. She was going to be young
again.
"Iff tree, Olive," she nodded. "I
really belong to you."
"I'm kind of stunned," he smiled.
Pit takea a bit of getting used to."
"For me, too." She was wondering
whether she might powder her nose.
Nt won't tomorrow."
He seized her slender wrist.
"Of course It won't Everything
gtaat will be forgotten."
"As though this were the first
time I had been married." She read
pis thoughts.
Ha shifted to her side and slipped
Ian arm about her. She waited pulse
less as a doll.
' "I'm the only husband you ever
Hud," he burst out. "Say so."
She took his face between her
bands.
"I can never thank God enough
lor baring given you to me."
That satisfied him for the mo
ment He twisted the wedding-ring
en her finger the one he had be
stowed on her.
His mind was In a ferment So
many thoughts so few of them to
utter. Scarcely more than week
ago bad he been caught In a sleep
ing compartment with her, he could
bar, been dragged Into her divorce.
The conductor tapped and en'
.tered to collect tickets. Cllve be-
itrayed the customary nervousness
ot the newly wedded. Santa watch
ing, found his confusion adorable.
Evidently he feared that the legal'
Ilty of their relationship might be
doubted. She'd experienced the
same pangs on her first honeymoon.
When they were alone again,
Cllve re-seated himself beside her.
"You're awfully quiet," aha cha.1
longed.
"I feel such an amateur," he
laughed.
"1 shall love living with you In
New York." She snuggled.
Till now Dicky had afforded al
most the sole toplo ot their eon
versatlons. Would he bring counter
charges at the last moment? Then,
after her release from him, would
he cease to annoy her? .
Things had moved too fast Cllv
bad judged rightly that after her
ordeal, Santa wouldn't be sate to
conduct her own affairs. When he'd
. surprised her that morning two
weeks ago, she had cultivated the
complex that all her friends were
shamed ot her that nobody would
rer want to be seen with her.
The best cure had seemed to be
to restore her without waste ot time
to a recognised niche In society. He
had urged Immediate remarriage.
She'd permitted herself to be per
suaded on the condition that they
'Involved nobody In their rashness
'save themselves. Hence there had
been no guests, no wedding pres
ents. Not even her parents had
been notified. Their plans for the
future had yet to be formulated.
The orst minister they had ap
proached, on learning that Santa
was a divorcee, had refused to offt
lolate. The aeoond had Invited them
'into his parlor this waa a few
boura ago and united them as
perfunctorily as if he'd been issuing
a dog-license.
Now that hla goal had been at-
. :talned and they were man and wife,
bad come the reaction. Her remark
as they had stepped aboard the
train had started it "Married
gain. I adore It" in their marriage
was everything to be again for her?
He had approached thla day with
so much of reverence, which noth
log external had reflected. At the
back ot hla mind waa the account he
k had read of the social Importance
which had been attached to her
first nuptials.
Santa routed his reflections.
LOOT OF COLFAX

'A penny for your thoughts, old
boy. We might as well be honest"
"I should bops so," he humored
her.
She squeezed his arm.
"Then atop thinking about
Dicky."
His restraint melted.
"I hate the sound ot his name. I
can't bear to hear you mention him.
But he keeps bobbing up like a
Jack-in-the-box."
Ha won't presently." She petted
him. "Talk him out ot your system.
How does he bob up?"
As though hs were taking his
revenge. As though he were deter
mined to spoil '
"He can't"
She slipped a cool hand over his
mouth. Kissed each separate finger.
But Santa, dear, he has so tar.
We've been married like outcasts;
as though we had no right to be
married. That first minister who re
fused to perform the ceremony,
treated us as If we'd asked him to
bless a liaison."
He was a back-number," she
soothed him. "You wanted me. I
wanted you. We want each' other
more than anything In the world.
Here we are, with our wish granted.
Does Anything else matter?"
"Not really."
"I can't tell you, Cllve," she cooed,
'how I've longed for you. During
all the time that I was married to
Dicky. Wicked ot me, wasn't It? I
would imagine be was you. Close
my eyes and Imagine."
Glancing down, all be could see
waa her dark head against his
shoulder. Fields rushing by, grew
vague In twilight
So you see, Cllve, if It makes you
feel better, even when I seemed to
be Dlckya I was yours."
Makes me feel glorious," he
whispered.
"And yet things that oughtn't to
matter often matter terribly," ahe
continued. "Dicky had had heaps ot
women friends. Something he let
out on the honeymoon warned me.
I at once became afraid of what
you're fearing now. But you're not
an old story, Cllve. You're excit
ingly new. Always will be. I swear
it"
He gathered her to him.
"That's all right little woman."
"It isn't all right" She twisted.
Pre got to make you certain.
You're th gainer by my first mar
riage." Draw It mild." Hs waa thankful
the compartment was nearly dark
so that she couldn't see his expres
sion. I mean It I've learned the mis
takes to avoid. I'm trained to be a
wife. I wasn't when you first asked
me."
A flock ot retorta winged across
his mind.
"But I'm not trained to be a hus
band, Santa."
"Everything's happened for the
best" shs urged; "In the only best
way It could have happened. All the
faults weren't on Dlcky'a side. I
was unyielding. I'm not any longer.
You havs Dicky to thank."
You'U never catch me thanking
him."
"Then you'll at least acknowledge
that without intending to, he taught
me to realise your value?"
"If that's the case, I wish you'd
found some other way to learn my
value."
She laughed, her Hps all but
touching hla. Her laughter waa
startling, bubbling trom the dark
ness without warning.
"I'm so free so bappy. The hap
piness has gone to my head. I was
la prison. Despairing. Then a key
turning and you."
He was conscience-stricken.
"Poor angel!"
"I'm not poor." She claaped him
strangllngly. "We're both rich."
Later, across the table in the dining-car,
she beamed at him.
"Isn't it marvelous how we can
say absolutely anything?"
He crumbed his bread.
"I guess you thought I'd got cold
feet"
"Didn't," ahe contradicted. "I
thought that I'd had practice and
you hadn't"
"Like learning to ride a bicycle?"
He appealed to her superior wis
dom. "But look here, Santa, aqn't
let's try to be too marvelous." ,
"Certainly not" She pulled a
monkey face. "This Is the last time
we'll refer to Dicky. We've been
placing flowers on the grave ot the
dear departed."
Cllve grinned whimsically,

BERLIN, Nor. 6. (AP) One man
was killed and three were wounded
today In a street fight arising from
Berlin's transportation strike, but
this afternoon street car, bus and

By mid-afternoon about 3000 of the

Strikers pelted trolley cars with
rocks until police cleared the street,
but It seemed doubtful whether even
partial service could be continued
