Married Life The First Year
BY Mabel Herbert Urner

Warren was looking around with
slow elaboration. ITS too crowded
over there; the walters will be knock
ing against US every time they pass.
Here-this is better"
Helen followed with a sense of dis
appointment wholly out of proportion
to the incident. Had he forgotten
how they had always sought out that
particular corner-even waiting for
table when it was crowded? And
now he had indifferently chosen an
other place.
"Claret lemonade?"
She nodded. Claret lemonade for
her and Scotch highball for him was
their usual order.
ooh, Warren, look! There is our
old waiter over there by the post!
Don't you wish he could serve us ?
But I suppose" regretfully, "this
isn't one of his tables"
"What difference does it make who
serves us as long as we get what we
order"
Here the orchestra suddenly burst
into the refrain of a popular light
opera.

much! Oh, Warren, can you ever
| forget the wonderful evenings W:
have had up here? | think some OF
our very happiest hours were spent
here, Won't YOU always love this
roof garden just for its associations
for what it meant to u.s."
But he was examining the siphor
/ the waiter had placed on the table
"Here! Bring another siphon-
this won't work"
ooh, Warren" despairingIy.
"Ah-ycs-what did you say?'
Then, not waiting for her to answer
There, that's better" as the waiter
put a fresh siphon before him.
Were all men like this? she asked
herself passionatcly. Did marriage
mean an end to all romanCe-al
sentiment? Did it mean the crush
ing out of all the warmth and CLAM
our of love?
Later. when they rose to leave, hf
said, with evident satisfaction:
"Well, we got cooled off-didn'
we?"
yes" she murmured, but with ;
double meaning, which he who'll,
failed to catch.

THEIR EVENING AT THE WAL
DORF.

DOhT'
1t had been about the hottest day
Of the summer. The mercury was
sizzling around ninety, and the
streets had that wilted, detected
look that comes only with extreme
heat.
Put on your things-weu go to a
roof garden and get cooled off. It's
insufferable here"
Helen assented eagerly She had
been in all day and felt more than
usual the depressing heat.
Nov, don't spend an hour primp-
ing. Just put on anything and let's
get out of here"
"All right-Ill be only a few min
utes."
They had been out so little lately,
and she had so few chances to wear
the many dainty gowns of her trous-
seau. The one she selected now was
a white chiffon, very soft and sheer.
She fastened a few hooks at the
waist and neck and then ran in to
Warren for the unreachable ones in
the center.
Haven't you anything that but
tons in front ?" he grumbled
Buttons in 'front.'" laughingly.
"You know nobody wears gowns that
button in front"
"Well. then, YOU ought to put
these hooks where one can find them;
and have them big enough! These
devilish little things-vou can't geE
hold of them. There" pushing. her
off his knee. "Now hurry up"
She reached back and felt inuuir-
ingly along the line of fastenings.
"Why, you've only hooked the lin
ingw settling herself on his lap
The outside is still undone"
He muttered something - some
thing very strenuous-under his
breath.
Now, don't swear" turning and
kissing him over her shoulder, "it
isn't nice"
We'll, are you going to be still ?
How do YOU expect me to do any
thing with you wiggling around like
that? These blamed things come
undone about as fast as you hook
them, anyway"
He labored silently for few min
utes and then she reached back again
"No-now, you mustn't dig the
hooks in the dress! There's loops
little silk loops"
His remarks now were very luria.
"All right" hastily. at doesn'
matter-hook them into the dres.
