chums might do. 1t seemed to give a
piquant flavor to the prosaic-and it
was so charmingly true that they were
really chums even if they were also
really husband and wife. Once or twice
tonight Leighton asked her if she didn't
feel well, when she had little lapses
into a strange silence, but the question
each time set her off into an excited
torrent of recital. Once he asked her
EN- PEASANT:
Il suppose you sent my shirt to the
laundry?''
And she answered evasively, You'll
have it tonight She meant to take it
off the hook the moment she got in
the house.
And, after all. he was ahead of her.
He had been whistling when he went
into the room-how she prayed he would
not go to that closet, The whistle
stopped-he had, them She could feel
the silence before he said

he had meant to ask them.

You won't forget to send it over. will
you. Alice?"
Il will not forget" she answered
promptly, starting off indeed the mo-
ment he had left the house to get ii
and tie it up in a bundle for the JAM
tors boy to take over to Lee Wongs
establishment. On her way the tele-
phone called her off, and for day of
pleasure, indeed-a summons to the
home of lately returned bride, one of
her dearest friends. To think that she
and Mary were both really marriott
seemed absurd and unbelievable. She
had just little feeling of patronage
about Mary's married venture when
she thought of Mary's William by the
side of Leighton, She could stay I'M
til nearly 6 o'clock-the whole day. She
and Leighton only had breakfast in the
apartment: they took their dinners out.
Until nearly 6 o'clock, AS she was en-
tering her rooms again, after most
absorbing day, in which she and Mary
had nearly talked themselves blind
as she was entering her rooms some
thing struck her stiff and dunbar
awful, paralyzing thought, She had
, never sent that shirt to the laundry.
She could hardly believe that she had
not: it was impossible that destiny had
dealt with her as hardly as that. She
went to the closet to know that it had
gone, that she had given it to the jan
itor's boy-not just dreamed 1t. And
! it hung there before her, a damning
proof of her incompetency. Oh, why
under the sun had Leighton, who had
so many shirts, set his mind continual
ly on this one? She wished he had

never bought it in London; she was sick
of hearing about tit was hideous
thing, anyway. Why-oh, that didn't
help matters, She knew, as sure as
she stood there shivering in her blue
cloth walking dress and feathers-she
knew that she could never brace her
self to tell the truth to Leighton. He
would think-what wouldn't he think ?
What could she do? She had no more
idea of how to do up a shirt than she
had of balloon manufacture-but in
some way it would have to be done up.
The janitor's wife, perhaps, would do
it if she went to her after dinner. She
didn't care how much she paid for it.
Leighton was very lively and very
affectionate when he came home. 1t
was a little fiction that when they
went out together to their dinner they
weren't husband and wife, because most
of the husbands and wives they met
dining together seemed so untalkative
and bored-they were just chums-and
they told each other things and COM

which was always of a rather pompa-
dour variety, stood up more than ever
on his head: his shirt was open at
the collar and his eyes sought her in a
frantic appeal-testified to as of ut
