Chapter 2S THE MONEY FLICS DUX In marriage, aa Cllta iu to learn, there are no closed chap ters. Perhaps wives with lncomea are naturally secretive. Santa had ' formed the habit th-ougn living wltti Dick. What the rent o( their apartment waa .Cllve discovered from the janitor. The wagea they paid their maid he could only gueee. JThe coat nt their houaekeeplng, 11 Banta knew '.he exact figure, ehe never told. Ber extravagance In clothea waa ; terrifying. Every day aha raided Fifth Avenue: the reault waa an avalanche of boxea. She flung away dollar! where he would have con sidered cent, since ehe waa spend ing her own mone. he had no li cense to curb her. Illoglcally, despite her Inde pendence, her pretence waa that ahe waa utterly his possession. Never mote so than when she paraded be fore him, courting his approval of the latest addition to her wardrobe, Once he attempted a mild protest. "It's stunning. But there aren't enough days In the year to wear the frocks you already own." "I'm gathering my trousseau," she pulled a face at him. "So that's the Ideal But aren't you setting the pace a trifle fast? What I meaals " . . "I'm your alava and you're my sultan. , I don't buy them to please myself. I dress for yon only." At the end of the first month when be Inquired what ha owed, she re plied, "Whatever you choose." "But won't you show me the ac counts?" i "They aren't made up. Ton earn bow much About four hundred a month. Give me half of it" That two hundred wasn't his share, he was certain. When be wrote out his check for three hun dred, she tore it up. The second time she accepted it, but omitted to cash it H took her to task. She placed him under a o rushing obligation. "Aa your husband I'm legally re sponsible for your dobts. what a coat I'd look in a bankruptcy-court It I couldn't state " She burst out laughing. It waa during Uuse first weeks that he arrived home to find her reading a newspaper. The slgbt was unusual; she rarely read any thing, She was so latent on Its con tents that she didn't hear his ap proach. "Something Intcrestlngr He perched on the arm of her chair. 'Xet'a squint at It" - The paragraph waa marked. It contained the news that old Mr. Dak waa dead and that his only son. Richard, had fallen heir to his mil lions. "Dicky must have sent it," Santa commented. "As you see, It's a Chi cago paper." Cllve rose. "I'm off to doll myself up." Be glanced back from the doorway. "If he really did send It he had his nerve." Would he never be rid of that fel low? While he tubbet and during dinner he brooded over the Inci dent When the maid had departed and Jlunacy was permissible, Santa leaned against bis knees, squatted on the floor taflor-fashlon. Stretching back, she coaxed him. rwhat'i troubling the old headt" "II you'd been his wife when all this money blew In, would yon have divorced him?" "Tickle my throat" ah ordered; "be natural." Then, aenslng his seriousness, "Who cares about moneyr That night she whispered: "When will you believe that I'd rather starve with you In an attic than travel round the world In a yacht with Dicky!" But her protestations only as sured him while he was alone with her. He noted, or thought he noted. that other people regarded their marriage aa catch-aa-catch-can anyway, as lacking In dignity. Blips ot the tongue forced on his attention that he waa no more than her second husband. Though her entire happtress waa ravenously bound op with his, notblnc could Sac the Impression. Prlonds vls- jltlng, reoognlied certain objects. IH FABRIGK'S DEATH Klamath county, according to word received frr.ra District Attorney Ted R. Olllenwater, will proceed with IU Investigation against Ellsworth Xoc kle of IMS city, who admitted he killed Olen Pabrlck Sr., of this city, In mistake for a deer last October. The tragedy occurred In the lodge Pole ranger station section and the death spot lies In Klamath county.

She failed utterly to comprehend his fastidiousness. That's as may be. But why yell it from the house-tops?" With repetition ot the offence. she invented an explanation. I waa paying you : compliment The few times I was happy with Dicky 1 fancy that I must have been with you." And that really seemed to be the case that her memories of her hus bands bad blended. Her other husband I One never saw him. He pattered about like a disembodied spirit. As far as Cllve was concerned, he felt that his mar riage waa haunted. The haunted marriago! Already h - had acquired enough data to write a book on It In his most peaceful moments he was continually blundering on foot prints left by Dicky. Meanwhile all her effort was to convince him that her past waa most remotedly banished. She lav ished gifts on him stick-pins, cuff links; whatever suggested Itself to her generosity. For his birthday she begged permission to give him' a check suit a black and white one. She chose the tailor. You're so handsome. I long to see you In one that's made-to-measure." Under pressure he consented, to discover that Dicky Dak was one of the tailor's favored clients, "Mr. Dak Is a rare one for checks. sir. He's what we call a snapnv dresser." .. Before the suit came home Cllve had taken an aversion t It When It had been hung In his cupboard he never wore It Santa accused him of not carina for It "Frankly I don't" "But it flta. What's the objec tion?" I'm not Dak. I purchase my clothes ready-made. Always have." ."As you choose." Santa smiled She was lmperturbably pleasant "The Janitor's about your site. Why not give It to hlm?" He didn't tell her; to hold up his end he was drawing on his savings His out-of-pocket .expensos for the atre-tickets, automobile-hire, gen eral entertainment amounted . to more than his contribution to house keeping. Pride demanded that when she showered him with gifts, he should return them with an equal gener osity. He was . living on a plane which nothing In his prospects war ranted. To Increase his nervous ness he had a shrewd suspicion that his firm's affairs were going none too prosperously. Three months after his scatter brained return from Chicago. Mr. Oleasby called him Into his office. Tve been watching you. Cllve. You're all strung up. Ought to take a holiday with your wife. There's a oonoern we've financed in London. I wish you d run over and make a report on It" Cllve clinched with the offer. Away from ttmlllar surroundings Santa might re-adjuat herself. When the affair le London la concluded and It shouldn't take long." Mr. Cleasby addsd, "you can dash oil to France, If that suits you, and snatch a brief honeymoon, Yon kind of slipped up on your honey- rnoon.- "We did, sir. I'va sometimes thought " Mr, Cleasby flnlstud his sentence. "That a honeymoon might have made all the difference. Yon're right my hoy. Women expect 'em. They don't feel married without a honeymoon. When that evening- Cllve reseated the theory, Santa confirmed it by Plopping nerseir in his lap. My sultan, that wise old anv said a mouthful."
