Helen could not restrain this little
Jab, even while she thought 10 hardly
fair, for Warren had never made such
an eXtrayagan remark However, he
did rise TO the occasion and said
quickly:

Helen louged 10 say something

been forced into a filtration with Ned
Burns to retaliate.
Not that Helen believed IN her IN
most soul that there was anything
definite in Warreu's admiration OF
Lola Wilcox, but Helen was one Of
the women who cannot talk light
nOthings without some kind Of
meaning behind them. Il would be i'm
possible for her to see her husband
plainly attracted toward another
woman without suffering intensely,
and borrowing all kinds OF trouble as
TO the seriousness Of the outcome.
In short, Helen was like twO-thirds
