Betty was gritty enough, he decided,

didn't see the use of that perpetual
quiet that enveloped her; if silence had
to be part of the working and the
waiting game he would take care of
that and of the business, too; and he
didn't for the life of him see what
carelessness had to do with life in
town. The knots on his forehead grew
harder; his head ached and he ran
his fingers distractedly through his thick
light hair and admitted-that Betty had

He hadn't confronted just that view
of things before today, and yet there
was a decided contrast between the

wasn't overamiable these days, and
she hadn't been for some time past;
what was more, She wasn't so neat as
she had been. He had thought so for
the fftieth time, as she closed the door
Of their apartment and left him to forge
the chain of thought that was holding
him now. There were loose stringy
locks of hair at the back of her neck
and her collar was somehow askew.
If there's one thing l do like. it's a
dapper-looling woman. If there's one
thing can't and won't stand for, it's
slouchy one!
Andrews moved impatiently and his
frown seemed to extend down to his
chin and involve his whole face.
As girl Betty had been the persona

her belt now; her clothes gave almost
