The Genevieve Who Sells Herself
a Gold Brick
By HELEN HELP

The woman who marries man she
does not love is selling herself gold
brick.
Heretofore, the pronunciamentos
have all been the other way. 1t has
been declared by the how-to-make-
home-happy writer's and the women
who COO through a few columns to tell
wives all about meeting him with a
smile and always wearing pink rose
in your hair and never being caught
with pink wrapper on after eight
o'clock in the morning; that the wom-
an who welded without love was
handing the gold brick to the man.
Not at all, not at all. James is
usually glad enough to get Genevieve
at any price.
And by the time the glamor has
worn of and he has time enough left
from his own emotions to think about
hers, he has quit thinking about emo
tions and got back on the job.
This is when Genevieve is going to
be very, very lonely. If she loves
James. she can think about him with
all sorts of comfortable little thrills
and remember all his niceness and for
get an occasional hasty word. 1t is
endurabie even to read the lucabra-
tions of the happy-homers in the
Household column, when she does so
by the light of her love for James.
But suppose she does not love
James.
Then what has she got, after the
new of the trousseau has worn of, ex-
cept ashes and dust and such unpleas-
ant things? Even If James has guam
titles Of money, she has to put up with
a man who gives her the shivers every
evening for dinner and every morning
for breakfast, and If she lodges the
issue and doesn't come down to break
fast, she has to let him kiss her good
bye, anyway. Because, with the nat
urally wrong-headedness of man, these
are precisely the circumstances under
which James never forgets to kiss his
little girl goodbye.

Very bristly is James, and trifle
grotesque, all of which counts not at
all when Genevieve loves him; but
when she doesn't, 1t counts all the
whole, wide world. But, of course, he
gets his kiss. There is such thing
