Katherine smiled cynically. Isn't
there always some one?'
And there is some reason why.
You don't mean that he is married?
"Oh, no-nothing like that"
Then why"

another bitter laugh. 1T is unreasona-

THE SECRET OF HER WOE.
You mean he has come to care for
some one else?"
NO, | don't think there is any one
else. There may be, of course. But
somehow | never thought that. And l
think l should feel it if there were"
Then why"
"Oh. | supposed ! cared too much
and showed it too plainly. He is a man
who wants always TO pursue; | think
the very certainty OF my love palled on
him"
But if he is that kind of man,
aren't you better off without him?
Was his love worth having?"
"Perhaps not-only | happened to
want it more than anything else in
the world. And, somehow, l keep on
wanting it" She rose suddenly and
walked over to the window. Lets not
talk about it. 1t doesn't help any, does
it? Unless it makes your lot seem
happier by contrast"
"Oh Katherine, don't! How can you
say such things?"

Here Della announced luncheon,
and for the time, they talked of other
things-of Katherine's plans of taking
small furnished studio for the few
months she expected to be in the city.
1t was after four O'Clock she started
to CO. and then not until Helen made
her promise to come to dinner next
week to meet Warren.

be with all this-your home, your hus-
band and your baby. Sometimes |
think we take things for granted
and don't realize our happiness until,
in some way, it is taken from us
WAS KATHERINE RIGHT?
The words haunted Helen for hours
after. Was Katherine right? Had she
more cause for happiness than she
knew? Her home, her husband, her ba-
by-yes, she had all those. And yet
She thought of Warren's seltishness,
his lack of tenderness and of sympa-
thy. If Katherine knew all that, would
she still envy her
Or were the primeval necessities
for a woman, a home, husband and
child? And having these she should
not expect more? Were tenderness,

Then she listened eagerly for sew

excitement. Katherine Grant, who had
become a successful magazine writer,

When a half hour later the bell rang,
Helen rushed to the door herself. After
the first excited greetings, after the
baby had been exclaimed over and ad-
mired, and the little apartment shown,
Katherine was installed in an easy
chair in the nursery and they pro-
ceeded to talk.
And so you're happy-ideally hap

Helen flushed, why yes,-of
course"
And is marriage, and home, and
a child everything you thought it
would be? You were always such a
sentimental, romantic little thing. And

"Why, of course" If there was a
forced note in her voice Katherine did
not notice it.
well, I'm glad some ones life is as
