had q letter from Eliene this morn
ing, little book, that has caused me
much disquiet. 1t concerns Mollie,
dear darling Mollie. If anything hap
n6ned to Mollie think could not bear
: 4. l feel toward her almost as though
She we're my child, and she tells me
/ have been mother, sister, contidant
and friend to her,
"You have given me almost all my
Measures, Margle," she said to me Just
before we started, land you are the
only person in all the world that ! can
talk to freely"
OF course, could never be as con-
fdential with Mollie as ! have been
with you, and that is the reason why
I think every woman should keep q
diary. 1t is great safety valve. 1t
keeps Us from telling other people
things that ofttimes we regret after
ward.
II don't want to be sad or sorry, "
said Q woman Of great poise to me
once. II never tell my most exciting
experiences, nor my most interesting
thoughts to anyone, for you are sure to
ret them back some day in a way that
WIN bring you great sadness and make
you very sorry you told" 3
But very few women, little book, are
sufficlent unto themselves, expect
"a over thousands Of years Of more or
less dependence We have learned to
tell someone our troubles and our Joys.

one but you, little book, the person
would be sure to think / did not really
have much interest in Mollie after all.

81 think" the letter continues, IF
Moilie should die Chad would kill him
self and the child. Poor chap, he has
had a rather sad life, has he not? l
am sure Mollie is the only woman who
could and would understand him.
"He is SO moody at times could not
possibly stand him around, but even
now when he seems to be worse than
usual Mollie goes on her way with a
poise of which 1 never thought her ca
paple.
"she is perfectly calm to the outside
eye although / know she must have
some Of the terrible moments that
come to a woman before her first child
is born."
I I'M sure, little book, Chad has Sc.
cret dread he Is not telling even to Mol
lie. Surely he is not so foolish as to
think Mollie may go mad as his first
wife did. 1t is something even Pat
DOES not know about for before came
away Pat and Alice told me how happy
Chad was and how he was surely CON.
ing out Of his moods.
AFTER all, Margie, whatever is right
Alice suits me better than even dear
MoIlie could and Mollie is much better
uNited to Chad. 1t isn't such a bad
world after all, is IT,"
The world is all right, little book, It
Is only what we make Of 1t.

Naples always insisted she could see
that there was something different IN
Dustin's face. There was honesty and
ambition. She knew 1t from the start:

Mrs. Mapes had heard the tale Of
the student working his way through

been something unusually earnest
about Dustin's appearance to have
made him rouse her sympathies as he

Mrs, MapeS tried to conceal the

despair even at the thought OF poSs'
