j would let her, of the annoyanees Of
housekeeping.
She was both exasperated and depres
sed by her knowledge that Brian had
discussed her with Mollie King She
could not forget it. She succeeded in
suppressing her desire to find fault
with him because of it, and compelled
herself to appear interested whenever
she spoke of Molly-which he often did
Once when he had talked of Mollie
for some time, Ruth recalled that some.

ly talked of the person with whom they
were enamoured.p
Could it be that Brian was beginning
to care for Mollie Kings She dismissed
the idea with a shrug of her shoulders.
But someway, Brian seemed different.
She could not find him in accord with
her so that she felt like encouraging
and praising him as she did when they
were first married. Brian too felt there
was some change he could not under
stand, so laid it to her work. Had they
quarreled it would have perhaps been
better. Quarrels sometimes clear the
air. But things never went as far as
that Occasionally Brion would sulk, an
Ruth grow omniously quiet. There il
would stop until one Or the other would
forget, and be natural once more.
Ruth had rented the apartment near
the office. She had attended to every
thing herself. Brian has acted sulky.

weeks to make the place as attractive
as it finally beeame) he would frequen-
tly remark that che guessed it was real
ly better for a lawyer to live in "a de-
cent place. He had mentioned it to
Curtis, and Curtis had agreed with
him. "
Mr.. Mandel had gone over to the ap-
artment, one day before they moved in.
Ruth had met him near there and asked
him if he would like to see it. He had
been very gracious about it, altho she
realized it must seem small and mean
to him. 1t was not then furnished, but
the walls had been decorated to Ruth S
directions, the lighting was in order,
and the dainty figured curtains hung.
" You will have very attractive
home" he had assured her kindly,
Mr.. Hackett think sos"
:" He hasn't seen it yet" Ruth con
fessed flushing, che has been very
busy" she added, hating to have Mr.
Mandel thing Brian had not cared to
visit the home in which she was so in
terested. Of course, she could not ex-
plain that Brian was sulking because
she ha d found fault with him, few
days before, when she had dragged the
unwilling confession from him that he
had borrowed of Clark; and had made
no explanation of why it was necessary.

CHAPTER XII.

CHAPTER XII.
Ruth was greatly disturbed because
of Brian s admission that he had dis
cussed her with Mollie King, although
she said no more about it.
"He was awfully afraid she would
think he couldn't take care of me, l
wonder why?" she soliloquized, after
he had gone to sleep. She was wakeful.
There had been things said that she
wanted to think about. 1t was all so
different, in the little southern town
where she had been raised. There, peo-
pie never talked personalities at a dim
ner party. Neither had she ever known
anyone who compared at all with
Claude Becky, to be received by nice
people, Yet she liR2d Mr. and Mrs. Cur
tbs; they surely wouldn t have invited
him had he been as Objectionable as
he seemed to her.
81 must be awfully old-fashioned in
my IDEAS" she muttercd. "I shall have
to make myself over a little, guess.
But wish-Brian wouldn't discuss
me with Mollie King--or anyone"
Again the thought that perhaps Brian
would care more for her if she wore
contented to stay at home, do the work
and live as they would have to live on
what he earned, crossed her mind. But,
as before, she immediately dismissed it..
She would not surrender her occupation.
Instead, she would enlist Brian s coop
Grafton, and make him see that they
could be, that they would be, far more
comfortable in her way than in his.
Ruth had yet to learn that home
building is an absorbing task. That to
most men it is THE absorbing task, and
one tlIy think should content and sat
isfy woman. Brian was one of this
sort. He remembered, in his own home
where poverty, stark and unlovely, had
always been a guest, his two sisters
dressed in ealicoe and remained at home
and helped cook, clean and do all the
menial tasks that those who lack money
have to do. Yet he never gave thought
to the fact that had his sisters. even
one of them, had independence, init
iative enough to fly the home nest and
go to work, life might have been not
only easier for them ALL but far pleas
anter.
Ruth had no intention of having her
work bone of contention between her
self and Brian. Far from it. 1t had
been, IT was, her idea to make that
work bond between them; to have it
help her make Brian's home happy
one. to help her give him good, nourish-
ing food, properly cooked to relieve
him in as far as she could, and he

now living under the thumb of the Turk
cannot be under-estimated, according to
Professor Gotheil. A strong supporter
of the plan to establish Jewish state
in the Holy land he sees in this oper-
alton probable fulfillment Of the
dreams of Jewry.
"The Turk has always been so fear
full of his hold in the countries in which
he held sway that he purposely kept

their inhabitants should not be perme-
