1t was a great shock to me. l cursed
my luck and told myself that this only

there, meaning every word of it. Her
blue eyes grew big and round as she
listened to my confession, her elbows
rapping mine deliciously. In a moment
great tear glistened in each eye.

The Heart of
a Woman
By Della Broughton Wistwsy
copyright, by w. G. Cnapman)

She's the loveliest girl in all the
world" Tom Evans said again and
again, and Horace Malvern began to
believe him.
You will like Ter after you
have met her," said Evans, and at
last Horace allowed Tom to take him
home with him one evening, although
he protested against taking young
Mrs. Evans by surprise.
But that's the beauty of it, old
man. If had to send Nell word every
time l brought someone home with
me half the pleasure would be gone. -
Pm not the first visitor, then?'
Horace said with little sigh.
"Oh, dear no. / have brought out
20, and she's just the same all the
time Tell you in confidence, she's
the finest little housekeeper you aver
saw" and Tom beamed.
Horace had known Tom well ses
eral years before, but when the latte'
married, Horace had been in the west
so had not met Mrs. Evans. He con-
fessed to a slight Quickness in the
beat of his heart as he followed his
host off the car, and then he felt his
pulses stop beating, for there on the
platform, demure, with slight droop
to the lips, dainty in her lovely gown,
and costly appointments, stood the
only woman he had ever loved,
Marian Hastings.
The next instant Tom was bending
over the sweet face and kissing it.
Then, as though in dream, Horace
heard Tom say:
Nell, I've brought another friend
tonight. Horace, this is Nell,"' and

She Caught Her Breath.

vice-president, wore paper cuffs, and
was conscientious. She brought her
lunches in little paper box and went
up to the women's room to eat them;
she was a favorite among the other
girls, but she never Joined in the office
gossip. She hadn't told me much
about herself, thinking herself of too
little consequence, l suppose.
But in my faux pas l was caught
with the goods on, neat as could be,
one day-but 1 will have to tack
again; Flower had hobby, or as l be-
lieve psychologists call it-a psychic
constitutional erratum. Of all things
in the world for pretty girl to have!
And worst of all, it was sociology.
had always thought about a hobby as
being a mania for collecting auto
graphs, or writing ones name in pub
lie places, or exceeding the arresting
limit, or something that way, and so
it nearly made way with my breath
when l found out that she harped on
sociology.
Coming up on the elevator, or
wherever l stopped to chat with her,
she began to talk sociology. If it had
been anyone else, and if she hadn't
had blue eyes and been willowy,
couldn't have stood it; at last L gave
up and let my eyes and heart run
away with me. 1t was interesting and
exciting, this falling in love under dis
guise. But soon saw that if l want
ed to be in at the finish l would have
to compete with August Comte, Vim
cent, Wallace and others too numer-
GUS to mention, and so l got out an
Astor library card for the reference
department. 1t was an awful bluff that
l at first put up about the spirit of
the mob, the village, unearned incre-
ments, the clan, the sociological unit
and the like, but after while l real
ly did become interested and watched
the score pretty closely.
l did get a toothful of satisfaction
out of my deceit after all; l often
wondered just what she would say if
some time, at some very unexpected
time-when we were in the cafe in
the basement-I should turn to her
and say in blunt words: Il am mil
lionaire." Again, thought of making
a scene of it, thought Of taking her out
walking in Central park, of choosing a
nook, of then beginning in a dramat-
ic voice: my conscience cries out
aloud that l must undeceive you, that
for you longer to remain victim Of
willful deceit"-and so on, but when
her blue eyes came to be my all,
knew the risk was too great and then,
like turtle, drew back in my shell
of hypocrisy.
/ barred the bodkin one day while
we were going uptown in subway ex-
press, by proposing. 1t wasn't very
romantic, but l knew that she. didn't
60 in for soft lights and slow music,
and so told it quickly and earnestly.
She caught her breath and her eyes
lighted up, but then shade of trou-
BILE filled them. She studied on it for
two express stations, her blue eyes
sadly puzzled, and then she told me
that she would take it under advise

fore Marian Hastings.
The dear, old well-remembered
voice said cordially with that tender,
underlying cadence:
"Mr Malvern and l have met be-
FORE" and he saw the old smile.
"Yes," he stammered
"He knew me then as Marian" she
explained to Tom, who nodded
II hate that name," he said, as he
led the way to the little runabout
: just outside the station. "Nell's mid
die name is Helen, and so use that"
How simple it all was after all. He
had loved Marian Hastings so dearly,
although he had felt himself too poor
to tell of that love. Now that he saw
her the happy, adored wife of his old
friend, he knew what he had missed.
"Still, couldn't have made her happy
as he has," he told himself.
No hostess could have been more
gracious, or more self-possessed. She
pointed out the various attractions,
chartered pleasantly and easily, and
more than once assured him of his
welcome
II have heard Tom speak of Horace
Malvern, but l never connected him
with my Mr.. Malvern of that happy
summer" she explained cordially, Civ
ing him one of those bright smiles
which dwelt in his memory.
Tom was delighted, and frequently
interrupted his wife to add his own
words of welcome, so that Horace
would have been dull indeed if he had
not realized that his coming was a
pleasure to both.
AS they bowled along he stole a
glance now and then at the beautiful
face beside him, for Tom was in front
1t was more lovely, but in the round
ed contours he missed a little of the
delicacy of extreme youth. Mrs. Ev-
ans was the finished product, Marian
Hastings had been the possible
woman.
Il believe I prefer my IDEAL" he
thought, although he wished that Tom
had married anyone else, for Horace
was man with high sense of honor
and he hated himself because of the
love which he knew still lived in his
heart for her who was now his
friends wife.
Tom and Nell were entirely uncon.
scious OF all this, however, and were
SO pleasant that he tried to forget,
and to see in Mrs. Evans only Toms
wife. He was just beginning to think
he could never do this, and to resolve
to leave the next morning, although
he had planned weeks visit, when
he was startled by gay voice cry.
ing:
"Heyo. stop, stand and deliver at
the point of the sword" and Horace
turned abruptly to see a handsome,
dashing girl standing in their path, a
light cane raised.
"Oh, Marian" Nell Evans laughed,
and Horace again started.
"Jump in," Tom commanded, and
before Horace could help, the girl
had sprung easily to the vacant place
by Toms side, and bowed gracefully

hundreds Of persons for their views,
and finally made report. This sec
