THEIR MARRIED LIFE"

Well, Miss Walsh could have been
| mistaken"
But that's just where you're
wrong. Miss Walsh couldn't have
| been mistaken. If she hadn't peen
sure she wouldn't have dreamed OF
accusing the woman. But you know
! how easy it would be to take a book
and walk off with it, and then either
keep 1t or else slip it back. 1t would
simply mean reading one of the new
books for nothing. But can you im-
agine any one small enough to do
such a thing? Why, the charge is
only 15 cents "a book, and why
should a person belong who isn't
able to pay that?"
How did it come out?"
We'll, Miss Walsh mentioned a
few names of books. L have several
marked down. she said. L couldn't
see what it was, but it might have
been any of these. How about
Lucky Hours?'"
"'Oh, it couldn't have been that
book the woman said quickly. L
read that long ago.
Virtually admitting that it might
have been some book?' interposed
Louise.
A Real Thoroughbred
Exactly, but making 1t so uncom-
Portable for poor Miss Walsh that
wanted to shake the woman myself
Miss Walsh was responsible for the
book and she was going to stick to
her guns no matter what happened;
could see that Finally, when the
woman was cornered, she said
rudely:
Well, of course, there's no need
of making any more trouble about
it. l can pay for the book, although
it's rather an expensive mistake on
your part, and L hope it won't occur
often.'"
Blaming Miss Walsh and pre-
tending that it was all her fault?"
Yes, and Miss Walsh never said
4 word; she simply took the money
and thanked the woman for it. She
certainly is a thoroughbred"
Il wonder if anything like that
happens often"
ooh, don't think so. Most of the
people who belong are only too glad
of the privileges the membership Of
fers them. But of course one does
bump up against people like that oc-
casionally."

II can't" she whispered. 1T
wouldn't work. There's too many
scars. too much that's hard to for
get"
We'll you know about that bet
ter than l do" Benton said thought
fully. ''It all depends on how you
feel"
The poignant truth of that struck
miserabiy home to her. 1t was not
a matter OF reason or logic. of her
making any sacrifice for her con-
sciences sake. 1t depended solely
upon the existence of an emotion
she could not definitely invoke. She
was torn by so many emotions. not
one of which she could be sure was
the vital, the necessary one. Her
heart did not cry out for Jack Fyfe
except in a pitying tenderness, as
she used to feel for Jack Junior
when he bumped and bruised him
self. She had felt that before and
held it too weak a crutch to lean
upon.
The nurse came in with n cup of
broth for Benton and Stella went
away with a dumb ache in her
