ones self The short walk did her
good, and by the time she returned
Warren had gone.
How long ago did Mr. Curtis leave,
Nora?" she asked as she passed the
dining room door.
"A few minutes ago, ma'am," said
Nora as she stopped to put some glass
into the china closet. "He seemed
worried about YOU, ma'am, wanted to
know if | thought you'd be in soon.
He waited as long as he could"
Helen could not help smiling. He
had waited as long as he could, but he
had gone out just the same. Then
she sat down in the living room and
began to reason with herself. She
must keep on with her treatment of
Warren if she wanted to get any re-
suits. He was right. too, about get
ting out alone one evening. A man
never loves woman more than when
she makes the least demand upon
him. That is, after marriage anyway.
And if Bob loved Louise the way he
did and still had bowling club one
night a week anyway, surely she
could afford to spare Warren. 1t was
the principle of the thing that wor-
ried her. Suppose he wanted to get
out for a reason. But then il he did
he would contrive way just the
same.
Winifred was asleep. Winifred went
to bed before Warren returned in the
evening. Helen had always insisted
upon this and Warren knew that she
was right and so did not interfere
Winifred was sound asleep and Helen
drew the silk comfortable up close
about the small flushed fact and tip
toed out again. Tired of reading she
finally decided to go to bed. there was
nothing to stay up for anyway.
Pussy Purr New had curled up in
the chair beside her. and Helen picked
the big cat up in her arms and took
him out to the Kitchen. He purred
drowsily as she laid him down gently
on his little rug and went back into
her own room. Nora had gone out
and Helen felt strangely lonely. Per-
haps if she had been a little nicer
about the affair Warren would have
decided to stay home. She fell asleep
thinking about it.
1t seemed hours later when she
opened her eyes slowly. The light
was burning in the hall and Warren
was getting out of his clothes quietly.
Sleepy as she was, Helen could not
help thinking how thoughtful it was
OF Warren to undress without a light.
She stitied an impulse to ask him if
he had had a good time. and lay
quietly looking at him with half
SiooSu nus. Alter tline he uHlsneu
and came over to the bed. She felt
that he was looking down at her. but
she did not move. Warren was not
given to sentiment, but he bent down
and kissed her cheek softly, and then
got softly into bed. Helen stirred as
though she had just walked up.
Did you have a good time, dear?"
she said sweetly.
Fine" he answered. as though
ashamed of the feeling he had Just
shown. I suppose you had good
walk, too, after the fit of temper you
