MEDFORD MATE TRIBUNE, MEDFOHD, OREGON', SUNDAY. XCOTJST 19. 193?. SYNOPSIS: o totcers wltt not, or cannot, wieretanA that, al thouoh Marsha married him tor an unworthy reaeon, she hat truly rome to lovo him, 80 they art on the brink of divorce, itet each loves the other. Bob tries clumsily to draw Marsha, out, end perhaps reach a compromise. Chapter 49 THE POINTED BOX I A T one that night Bob nurd the H careful closing ot that door of Marsha't room which led to the halL Be wondered where aha was going and he hoped the long, upper hall was warm enough to make her mi gration aafe. People who were reduced took eolda, he realized, and colds, for the run-down, developed to worse all- menu. He paced his room aa he tried to recall how high the fire In the li brary bad been when he left It. Bo could not remember and tbe failure to remember worried him absurdly. She might be going to tbe library to get a certain book. She wonld stand by the shelves, hunting It. She would shiver and It would be gin; that cold. Be considered following her, and dismissed tbe idea. She would not like it. Sbe would most probably see his following ber as a violent sort ot Intrusion. No doubt It would be that, as things were between them; a violent sort of Intrusion. Be began to undress. On the mor row he would tell Bartholomew to ee that the library lire was left, the last thing at night, burning high. iThen if she would wander around In this manner (he felt a sharp Irrita tion) she would be aa aafe as might be. under the circumstances. Hours In bed were a substitute (or sleep; the next thing, as a re storative, to sleep, It sleep would not come. Be'd have to tell her so and Imperatively. She was doing nothing to help herself to grow strong. And ahe was far from well. It seemed aa If ahe didn't care what happened to her. "They are the damndest!" he mut tered half aloud and violently; thinking of women. Be looked at his watch before he lay down. It was, he saw, twenty minutes before two. What tbe devil as she doing? Probably killing herself; taking tbe first step toward killing herself any wayl Be lay, with the Light-light on. strotched on his bed, staring at the coiling, mill frowning. Balf past two, he saw when be next looked at his watcb. Well, he would give her twenty more minutes and then be would follow her whether she liked It or not. TIE turned on his side, miserably conscious of tbe discomfort of the best bed he bad known In months, and propped on an elbow he looked on tbe face of bis watcb, listening keenly; Ten minutes more and he would get up, find her end tell her frankly what he thought ot her crlmlLal negligence In her care of herself. It had been years since he had suffered any such sweep of over mastering Irritation, anger. Be did not know that the most even tern pored men on earth suffer this when the one woman menaces herself, her health, by neglect or by taking chances. The ten minutes wors up. He atriigglod from bed with a sharp suddenoss that was made by his strain; shoved foet Into slippers and, as ha moved toward his door, (tot Into Ids dressing gown he had picked up on the fly. The upper hall, lit by a small nlght-llsht, was a place ot gray and It was chill. Be would say, aa pa tiently ar he could and he must not lose his head "You've been up close to two hours; don't you real he anything of what a chill might mean to you?" He pausod. There was a line of light beneath his mother's bedroom door. He suffered a moment's shock, then, with readjustment, he realised that Marsha was In the room. He did not like It, even ber habit of going there by day; It seemed to him morbid, depressing for her; wrong. TTI5 considered tapping upon the -1 door to diamine It. It might frighten her badly, lie would open the door, speak gently. She would see htm Immediately, be decided. Softly he opened the door; for ovoral long moments ha stood at the threshold without speaking.

Be saw her, back toward him; her abundaut, curling hair around her shoulders. Her negligee had slipped to leave one shoulder bare; he aaw the whiteness of her skin outlined by undulating strands of black. Be saw bor shiver as he be gan to smile bitterly. "What are you doing?"' he flung at ber loudly.

Her other hand still rested upon the box sbo had boo., working to open; a painted wood box of an other day that held the treasures which had belongod to Bob's mother. They were the denrost things hla mother had owned, he knew, and things she bad wished to bide from others' eyes. Even be had never seen that which was In the painted box. Ho saw the color drain from Mar sha's face; ho saw her sway; her eyes, darkened by frlgh' were fixed on his eyes, and they did not waver. He moved toward her. still smil ing, and closed his hands arouud her wrists. "I am going to know what you wero doing," he said; "I asked you and you aro going to an swer me. Do you understand?" She moistened bor lips before an swering; she whispered a breath less. "Yes." "What were you doing?" "I was trying to get the box open," she gasped, "1 thought," sho added childishly, "I had locked the door." He laughed abruptly, harshly; loosed his bold on ber wrists, and he turned to close the door. Ainio ment and he was aralt by her, and looking down on her; he glanced at the box.
