Why die he always resent her SYM
pathy; her desire to help?
Dinner ready" he asked abruptly.
Yes, dear; it has been ready for
some time
Well, let's have it, then. I haven't
eaten anything today
Helen hurried out to help Della put
the dinner on the table. But Warren
did not eat. After few moments
! he pushed his chair back and left
the table Helen repressed her de
! sire to follow MIN, for she knew he
| did not want her. But she could not
eat, although she remained at the
table and made a pretense of finishing
her dinner.
| When she went into the sitting
room Warren had some papers covered
with figures spread out before him.
He did not look up; so she got out
her sewing and sat down quietly on
the other side of the table. Although
she kept her eyes on her work, she
was tensely conscious of every
scratch of his pen and of his white
set face as he bent over the figures.
1t had come at last-the loss in
speculation that she had so long fear
ed. She felt certain of it now-with
a sickening heart-heavy certainly.
How much had he lost? Was it more
than they could repay Oh, if he
could be no harder than the sick fears
that filled her now. But she dared
not question him any more.
THE STRAIN OR SILENCE.
She could hear Della moving about
in the dining doom, putting her dishes
away. In a few minutes she would be
through and go to her room. That
| would mean that it would be almost
eight. How much longer would War
rem figure there in silence? She
wondered if other husbands put their
wives from them in time of trouble
There was no sound from the kit
chen or dining room now; Della had
! finished. Everything was still eX-
! Cept. for the scratching of Warrens
! pen. Some neighboring tower clock
struck the half hour-half past eight.
, And she heard it strike nine.
A little gurgling cry from the baby
called her into the nursery. But
w iullIeu was OILY Hall awake. II
! took only few minutes to quiet her.
Helen covered up the little hands
| that, even in their sleep, were rest
! less, and kissed the soft, warm cheek.
, How sweet she was. Might this loss
! in some way react in HER? Might
| it lead on to more Strengthened con-
ditions which would affect her future
And over Helen there swept reali-
zation stronger than ever before Of
all the responsibilities of parentage.
When she came back into the sit
ting room, Warren had thrown down
his pen and with his head on his
hand was gazing straight before him.
Again she took up her sewing, her
heart beating heavily. And then he
broke the silence. Without glancing
towards her. still staring in front of
him, he said:
I've lost just $1,5O0-and $1,000 is
all | have to pay it with.

had grown irritable,' said he was all
right, if only she would leave him
alone.
"Gor.e sure it's not about -specu-
lifting? You haven't lost anything?''
She asked fearfully, several times.
And he answered CURLY, "Of course
not. Can't you stop harping on that.
She tried to leave him alone, but she
was only half convinced. One night
she awoke to find him walking up and
down his room, a lighted cigar in his
hand
why Warren, what is it? Can't
you sleep?
"Oh, am just nervous, that's all.

But Warren

She went back, but not to sleep.
And for over an hour, she heard him
moving about his room. She longed
to go to him, to ask him what was
wrong But she knew it would only
irritate him.
BARELY TOUCHED HIS FOOD.
The next morning he barely touched
his breakfast, and hurried off to his
office.
That day was long one for Helen.
She could not keep her thoughts on
the baby or on her work Warren s
worried face was continuously before
her. And she was haunted with a
feeling of impending trouble. About
two o'clock she called him up, saying
that she just wanted to hear from
him-that she could not help being
anxious. And he replied brusquely
that he was all right but had no time
to answer foolish telephone calls.
Helen left the phone with CULVER
ing lips. And she tried to excuse his
curtness-perhaps she shouldn't have
telephoned when he was so busy.
1t was late when he came home
Dinner had been waiting some time
One glance at his pale, haggard face
verified Helen's fears. Instinctively
she ran and put her arms about him
ooh, Warren what is it,"
For moment he stood passive, Their
he shook her off angrily.

some excuse for

For this belt
