professional of this section, to shoot a
match at 500 targets in one afternoon,

is altogether likely that it will be
pulled off in Wilmington. There is
some question about the status Of an

nature against a professional, and If it
is found that TO do so would interfere
with his amateur standing in any way,

Married Life
Fourth Year

Helen opened her eyes. conscious
that the door had just been softly
opened. The room was cool and dark
and the pink silk curtains were blow
ing gently against the drawn blinds,
but Helen felt vaguely irritated. Her
head ached violently, and she remem-
bered now that she had told Nora not
to disturb her.
I'm sorry to bother you, ma'am,'
said Nora, tiptoeing into the room,
but Mrs. Stevens would like to see
you, she seems to be in trouble of some
kind and l told her I would see IL you
were awake"
Helen raised herself on one elbow
and then forced herself to sit up, heI
head seemed to throb more with every
move she made, but she smiled at
Nora's worried expression.
"All right, Nora, I'll be out as soon
as I can get some clothes on: Tel
the shutters for me before you go!"
Nora unfastened the shutters land
pulled the shade, letting in a flood OF
sunlight, and Helen began fastening
up her hair hurriedly. She didn't

any longer than she could help. What

and comfort she could get

room, II hated to have Nora wake

Perhaps it would help you to tel

confidence, and yet she knew that was
what Mrs. Stevens had come for.
"Perhaps you'll think me foolish
| perhaps you won't see a thing in it
but you'll never know just how l fee
till you have to go through it yourself
and hope you never do"
Helen was silent, and Mrs. Steven:

him. AZ he kissed her, she could see
that he was tired and out OF sorts.
"Dear, Mrs. Stevens has been here
all afternoon and she has decided to

don't think It was his fault 1t all!
His fault, Of course It wasn't his

last week and when I spoke to him
about 1t, he refuserd to say anything!"
"Of course" said Helen reassuring-
", he probably didn't think anything
about It, Why the girl IL q baby and
1t probably hurt him to think that you
would speak to him about It In the
way you did. Tell me, weren't you
angry and didn't you say a lot Of
things you really didn't believe at
an?"
swell, psrhaps did, but how would
you feel II Mr.. Curtis should sudden
" decide to take HE typewriter out
to Iunch?"
Helen hesitated; to tell the truth
pens
But don't you see, Mrs. Stevens,
that circumstances would change
everything? Warren would have no
cause to do such thing, whereas Mr..
Stevens has been personally interested
in this girl from the beginning. Surely
there was some reason for his doing
what he did. Didn't he tell you why
he did it?'
HIS EXPLANATION.
Eyes, he did try to explain, but l
said l didn't believe him, and after
| that he refused to say anything
more"
What did he tell your" And Helen
leaned forward intensely interested.
Some story about the girl going
| without food to send the money home,
! and he had taken her out simply be-
| cause he was sorry for her and want.
! ed to see her have a couple Of good
! meals. He said that he would have
given her the money, but he was
afraid she would not spend 1t for
! food"
Helen's face cleared and she gave a
little sigh of relief.
| And, after that, what could you
possibly worry about? Why, the whole
thing is as plain as day. You know
yourself how willingly you would have
helped the girl If you had known how
things were going"
But Mr. Stevens might have men
| toned it to me rather than have me
embarrassed by outsiders"
Did he say why he HADN'T"
HE said he never thought a second
thing about it, because Minnie was my
protege from the first. Do you really
think it's all right and can feel that
he has told me the TRUTH" And Mrs
Stevens looked up at Helen hopefully
| Helen leaned forward and took the
other woman's hand.
! Don't you think there will be as
much to forgive on his side now? Re
member you have acted very childish
; ly, and l believe that your husband
was perfectly sincere with you from
the beginning. You asked me to tell
you what l thought, my dear, and
think you ought to go to him and say
that you are sorry you doubted him
even for a moment Suppose it had
been another woman, really a woman
who might have counted. 1t surely
! wouldn't improve things between you
two to pick a quarrel. We women
must guard our men carefully. They
are very easily ruffled.
j Mrs. Stevens squeezed Helen's
hand
Il know you're right" she whisper
ed, "and l wanted to tell him l was
sorry last night, but he looked sc

day I called when you were going out.
but you were in such . hurry, 20 l
just had to keep 1t to myself. till l
just couldn't think about it any
longer"
HELEN 10 PLEASED.
Helen was delighted with the turn
things had taken: she was generally
too timid about taking the initiative
to give her opinions even when asked
for them, but she had been genuinely
sorry for Mrs. Stevens, and the idea
of good-naturad Mr.. Stevens doing a
thing of the kind struck her a. absurd.
She had been sure of being able to
help Mrs. Stevens out Of her dilemma.
and she had SO far forgotten herself
as to speak out plainly just what she
felt and knew to be true.
1t had grown very dark. and as
Helen rose to turn on the lights, Mrs
Stevens exclaimed at the time and
,, gather up her things to go.

Mrs. Stevens to the door And I dc

good luck"
Mrs. Stevens waved as the elevator
dipped down out of sight and Helen
! walked slowly back to the front room

piled high with pillows and the shaded
lights. Even the noise from the
street made pleasant hummine
