Steante the think the gay Geoffrey Tarle'.on hat mar ried another, Martha Moore mar tlet Bob Powert, mho tt hoptlettly in tovt with her. They are tpendlng their honeymoon at Eatthampton, on Long Itland. Much to Startha't turpriee, the ilndt the really it in tovt with Bob. and that the it con lent to devott hereelf to making him Mv. Chapter 16 IDYL "IVHY did you tell Ella the looked ' 'well In her cap. dear?" Bob asked. "Became, Bob, she (elt she didn't grace caps," Marsha answered quickly. "Of course she doesn't; you know bow her caps will ride with one deck under witer." "You haven't It yet," he went on, "why did you tell her that gruesome He that makes me turn shuddering from you?" "Because she felt badly about her caps and the Inebriated way they will look, skidding 'round on her two hairs." "Well, don't yon see, dearest?" he asked. Ehe didn't; she shook her bead, looking up at him. Her eyes were wide; So often to him she was I pitiably baffled child; he leaned A little later he said, angrily, as her hands grew quiet on the keys, "My Lord, what does your aunt want? You play exquisitely!" Those were quiet, sane days that did not drag; daya that hurried by with nothing of exciting nature in them "to pass the time." The weather was rarely mild. They walked the beach arm In arm; sometimes they talked, again they were silent They drove over the hills, played chess, read. She played the piano for him to find her heart swell as she realized he liked to listen. No, she had never before known what It meant to be happy; but she knew certainly that It could not last "How could It," she reflected, "considering all I've done; all I can't do or be because of all I"ve done!" And thinking thus, terror, an Icy deluge, would nil her heart Geoffrey Tarleton became a re mote wraith of the Inferno she bad known. She held bis memory close, however, and deliberately. He would be well matched with her, her aunt had said; her aunt had said that his was an almost equal depravity. No, this life with Bob could not last She must not let herself dre.i:n "You pliy exquisitely!" i. i.ard, kissed the tip of her nose, sat back. He tried ...a uot to bother her much; he felt she was a little happier when he seemed but gay, "When lies are made to make people happier," he stated, "the Jewel expert In heaven burrlea to get another jewel for the Unr'a crown. . , . See? You know, when we telephoned mother last night and I said, 'I'm missing you?'" "Yes." "Well, you know, dear child. I couldn't miss even my very dear mother just now, because life Is well, you know, anyway. 1 said that You knew I lied; Mother probably knew; but she understood what was back of the Ha. You did know I Hed, didn't you?" "No. I didn't. But I wasn't jealous, at all. Bob." He could not always be light and gay; be held her close prossed to him for a short second. "No." he agroed, voice tightened and short "1 know you weren't Jealous. You would not be. I heard you ask Ella In the most round about dlgnlflert and clever way the other day, whether 1 seemed quite normal. You wanted to know whether you were making me hap py, now didn't you?" "Yes," she admitted. "The curious thing to me," be said slowly, seriously, "Is that you don't know snytblng of how rarely selfless and dear and generous and fair you are. You are so beautiful in all ways I I don't know how I'll ever equal you." CHE broke In. and close to sharp J ly. His fnlth lu her, she could not benr. "Oh, don't, Boh!" she ap pealed. She did not like him so well when be was not light and gay, he knew. "Well," ha said, with a squaring of shoulders, "last's that; but 1 feel that way and can't help It But you don't need to brood on It! Go play your 'piece.' " that It could, she reminded herself. Sbe had, by constant compromise, made herself fabric for tbe wife of Geoffrey or of some one like Geof frey. She could never be, and with all trying, tbe suitable wife for Bob; and she knew It too well1 A T the end of the weel. .. aa to wonder whother Bob could love her If be knew why she bad become bis wife, The question per sisted; grew strong; It turned her silent often and It led her to look at him questlonlngly. "Tired of me?" he asked on one of these occasions. She wanted to answer with a vio lent "I shall never be tired of you! A lifetime won't give me enough of youl I'm a secondrate, shoddy piece, but no one could love you so well, If that counts." She said, "Not exactly." Drawled It. He had been standing by the hearth; tapping bricks with an emptying pipe. He turned to settle on the broad arm of ber chair; "I am beginning to know you;" be said slowly. (Sbe felt his band on her hair; be was always so gentle!) "And I know you wanted to say more, but old habits cling! Am I right?" "Yes," she admitted. Within, she said to him, panic at heart. "Don't know me too well!" He said, "A little gain, dearest one!" She felt him kiss her hair and then he rose. And again before the hearth ha Oiled his pipe wltb great particularity and gave to it bla entire attention. If, Instead of looking slightly pep turbed sho were to sny, "You doart I feel that way too!" Or perhaps, with a touch, make him understand that she knew what ell his noun- derlngs and groplngs through sud denly Inadequate words, meant (Cotnutl. I'i. ty K.

STAMINA TESTS "The trail of the taxlcah Is a proving ground In Itself! Day In and day out, in all weathers, the wheels of the taxlcab write the true facts about stamina and dependability In a motor car." That atatement came yesterday from C. M. Hurd of Rogue River Chevrolet, Inc., aa a prelude to his announcement that a San Francisco taxi service has purchased seven new 1934 "knee action" Chevrolet sedans for use in the San Francisco bay region. A schedule of severe and ex haustive testa preceded the selection of Chevrolet. In the actual locale In which the cabs operate, on hill with mountain-like gradients , and on the roughest type of rail crossings, scores of test miles declared the efficiency of Chevrolet braking, acceleration, deceleration, speed In all gears, read ability and economy. "What amounted to 'allde rule' methods of checking performance, were applied to the Chevrolet cars." the Chevrolet executive explained. "The San Francisco firm had lengthy records of maintenance to base con clusions upon, and It had the choice of all America's manufacturers to teat. That Chevrolet wa selected Is a tribute, I believe, of deep signifi cance to every prospective purchaser of an automobile. "Three factors, In the final anal ysis, guided the preference for Chev rolet. The first was knee action wheels. Public stamp of approval for the new gliding ride, and Its com plete efficiency In the rigid taxi testa, settled that Issue. The second wa economy. The record ahowed that Chevrolet fuel economy atood alone. Meager upkeep cost, founded on tbe fundamental of a motor car that did not need replacing, conclusively proved the point. The third consid eration wa ease of operation. The taxi company knew that ease of con trol meant the ability of the driver to pilot hi cab speedily and still extend the greatest 'courtesy of the road" to others. The Chevrolet, with large cable control brakes, and smooth, rugged clutch, provided aure nes of control along with nlmblenes of action." IS WITHIN RULES SALEM, July 31.
