HER
RETURN
She Found What She Did
Not Expect
By WILLARD BRAKEMAN

May Penrose when she was married
had been somewhat spoiled by the
number Of her %suitors. each one of
whom was ready to promise that he
would kotow to her through life if
she would be his wife. For that rea-
son none of her intimate friends could
understand why she finally married a
man twenty years her senior and who,
so far as could be learned. promised
nothing except what was included in
the marriage service.
Some said that her mother made the
match between May and Herbert Fen
wick, realizing that her daughter was
Maynard and would need a cool head
and a strong will to keep the connubial
peace. But there is no doubt that May
was perfectly satisfied to marry Mr..
Fenwick, and it is quite probable that
she had become a trltle tired of having
her own way with the other s%uitors.
Mays mother, having a quiet way
with her and an abundance OF common
sense, had always exercised a healthy

ints.ence owe her daughter. After the
marriage this was kept up, not to the
disadvantage of the young wife and
her husband. but to prevent breaks
that WOuld have occurred had it not
been for the mother-in-law's persuasive
powers with her daughter. But when
the couple had been married five years
Mrs. Penrose died, and May vas de-
prived of her mothers restraining in
tiuence. Then came the crisis of the
Wife's completing the passage from the
partial guidance Of a tactful mother to
the sole influence OF her husband. 1t
proved a crisis indeed.
1t would be impossible to state the
exact rock on which the couple split.
for a number of differences occurred.
which eliminated in the wife's an
nouncement, with great dignity, that
after the treatment she had received
she could not maintain her self respect
and remain in the same house with her
husband. Mrs. Penrose's house had
been closed after her death, and her
daughter determined to remove there.
When her husband went to his office
n morning she packed what articles
she needed. and when he came home
in the evening be found the house de-
serted.
Mrs. Fenwick did not go away in a
huff. She had been thinking the mat
ter over for some time and decided
that life was not worth living tied to
a man with whom she did not get on.
Doubtless there was Il way for her to
get on with him. but she had not
found it.
Fol- a week Mrs. Fenwick occupied
herself in putting her abode to rights.
After her mothers death she had in
tended to weed out the accumulation
of articles whose value had passed
away with those who had treasured
them. Old schoolbooks. children's story
books, packages of letters, even her
own dolls. were got rid of. The work
Of selecting what should be destroyed
brought before her a dead past and a
corresponding loneliness. 1t was a
work not calculated to re-enforce her
resolution In separating herself from

So they both We're soon their real
selves and sat down to Il hearty break
fast in Mrs. Darnell's rooms.
This ended. Jean took out the papers
and spent all hour going over them
carefully. Wilkerson smoked nervous
ly, but did not interrupt her. When
n laid the documents down he saw
a queer glitter in her tawny eyes.
S it has come to the old game,
eh" she said in u low voice. Il
thought you had had enough of that"
Enough of what:" he demanded
quickly.
She smiled m%aliciously. She formed
the word slowly and precisely: 'For-
gerry"
His dark face grew pallid, and his
eyes flashed %ominously. Il did it for
you that time-and no thanks! But
this is all right. Those deeds are gen
uine."
"They merely assure the property to
Thomas Gallon and his heirs and as
signs. When you found Tom Gallon
at last and had him ready to do any
thing you wanted just as the price Of

to you to have him deed over the Mas

lie wouldn't have done it," he burst
out %furiously. He shot me once. He
would have shot me again to save the
mile for the girl"
Then what good are these papers?'
Gradually he perceived the drift of
her speech. He looked at her for a
moment dumbly, as if for instruction.
Bdt she was ruthless. He must pro-
pose the crime himself. She handed
him the papers.
He stared at them and then glanced
across at Jean. She was waiting. He
cursed her under his breath. She had
always been waiting-waiting for him
to break the law. to suffer that she
might have comforts and jewels and
keep unimpaired that beauty that had
been his downfall. But the spell work
ed, as it had worked before.

AS he left the room Jean Darnell
looked after him, lazy triumph in her
eyes.

"Have another drink, partner" he
said Familiarity. land forget it till to-
morrow"
After a very poor meal which Tubbs
scraped up the two sat down and
smoked. Tubbs' tongue gradually loos-
ened under the influence of many more
drinks, and before 10 o'clock brought
up a waning moon Drake knew Il great
deal that made him uncomfortable. He
resolved to shift the burden to Wilker-
sons shoulders us quickly as possible.
The mex, morning did not bring
cheer. His head ached from the fumes
Of Bill Tubbs' whisky, and the chill of
the mountain air was not dissipated by
a cold breakfast. And before the sun
had risen above the peak of the noun
tain the miners had approached him
with questions.

greelnrntS. she loved. However. she
kept ut her work till it was nearly fin
ished. when one day she needed an ar
ticle that she had left at the residence
from which she had departed.
She would have written her husband
to send it to her. but could not direct
him exactly where to find it. \. search
would be necessary. and she knew by
experience that he was no hand for
such Il purpose. There seemed to be
no way open to her but to so and get
what she wanted. At least she con-
WINGED herself that there vas no other
way. but the truth is she desired to
visit the home in which she had pass
ed. despite c%unnubial quarrels, many
happy hours. Had not her resolution
forbidden she would have liked to so
when she would have a chance of find
ing her husband there.
She chose the middle Of the after
noon for her visit. She had taken a

though why she desired to let herself
into a house she had resolved to leave
forever does not appear. But when she
put it into the keyhole she found that
the door had been locked. She WINGED

unwillingly rang the bell. Expecting

The mistress. A pang shot through
Mrs. Eenwick's heart. She was no

another was. Unwilling to make a
scene, she wen into the parlor and
awaited the coming Of the mistress.

Angeles the next morning
IEGEys7 John DORIS party got off.
SAsO and John left Ruth with
Tom Kane while he went to engage
an automobile to take them to Beverly
Hills, a suburb recommended by Ever
EFT as quiet and restorative for shat
tered erves
AS they stood there Wilkerson, Mrs.
Darnell and Estelle also got off the
train, still disguised, and were hurry
ing away when Wlkerson observed
Ruth and called Jenn's attention to
her.
For an instant she was nonplused.
Then she said in a low tone: 80 much
the better. We can keep an eye out
on them"
II must find out where they are go
ing to-" Wilkerson returned. 81 don't
like the looks of it,"
He soon came back with word that
they had ordered the car to take them
to Beverly Hills.
After some inquiry Wilkerson found
the address Of q hotel that seemed to
answer their requirements. and they
were soon on their way thither in a
taxi. Within an hour the deft Estelle
had installed herself and her mistress
in a comfortable suit. Wilkerson took
a near by. Then came the ques-
ton Of their DISCUSSES.
'There is no need Of wearing them
any longer" Wilkerson stated. IF
need be we can put them on again"
Mrs. Darnell laughed scornfully.
Eyes, and all the hotel people saw us
come in with u DISCUSSES on. What
will they think if they see entirely
different people occupying these
rooms?"
Wilkerson had already started to re-
move his makeup. Now he paused.
But his reckless nature got the better
