REVELATIONS OFA WIFE
BY Adele Garrison

You. remember. Jack is waiting
ready to do anything for you"
NJ tears were falling fast now
Jack stood up and laid his hand
upon my shoulder
Come. Margaret. you must con-
troll yourself" ne said in his old
brotherly voice. Il want you TO tell
me your new name and address
I'm never going to lose track Of
you, remember that You won't
see me, but your big brother will
be on the job just the same"
I told him, and he wrote il care
fully down in his note book. Then
he looked at me fxedly.
You would better put your en-
gagement and wedding rings back
on" he said. "Of course I realize
now that You must have taken them
off when you removed your gloves
in the restaurant, with the thought
that you did not want TO spoil my
dinner by telling me of your mar
riage. But you must have them on
when you meet your husband, you
know"
How like Jack. putting aside his
own suffering 70 be sure OF my well

Jack" / gasped. horror-stricken
my rings are gone"
Impossible" His face was white.
He snatched my mesh bag from my
grasp. Where did you put them
IN here?"
/ nodded. I could not speak. This
was the final touch to the misery

laying 10 tell my cousin, Jack
Beckett. OF my marriage to Dicky.
I had thought I was doing a wise

brother cousins feelings upon his

wilderness where he had been I'M
able 10 receive any news of me. I
had gone TO meet him, intending 10
tell him of my marriage when our
reunion dinner should be finished.
feared Dickys jealousy would
prevent my seeing much OF Jack.
and I wanted 10 give him one last
hour or two on the old motherly
and sisterly basis.
And as a result Jack had told me
that he loved me, something he
would never have revealed had he
dreamed l was married. and / had
lost my engagement and my we'd
ding rings. i had put them in my
mesh bag in the restaurant when I
took off my gloves, so that Jack
should not guess my marriage until
after dinner.
Jack turned the mesh bag inside
out A handkerchief. a small coin
purse. two or three bills Of small
denominations. an envelope with a
tiny powder puff-these were all.
Are you sure you put them in
here?"
yes" I could hardly articulate
the word was so frightened.
Have you opened your bag
since?"
I thought a moment Had I?
Then a rush of remembrance came
10 me.
Il took out handkerchief when
I cried in the restaurant"
You must have drawn them out
then, or either dropped them there.
or they may have been caught in
the handkerchief and dropped in
the taxi. We must hurry. dear.
This is awful. If you have lost those
rings. your husband will have a
right TO be angry"

THE MIGHT HAVE BEEN.v

IfE "miOHl HAVE BEN.
I adored my husband I had mar
ried him after a whirlwind wooing
during Jacks absence in South
American. No thought Of Jack in
any other light than that Of
brother had ever crossed my mind.
But two o. three times since my
marriage / had wondered why ! had
not fallen in love with Jack instead
Of Dicky. / had always stihed the
thought almost before il came. 1t
seemed 80 disloyaI to Dicky.
Now the disloyalty seemed
doubled. Against Dicky's unreasOn-
able and angry protest, 1 had gone
70 dine with Jack, my first meeting
with my brother-cous!n after his
years absence. FoOlishly / had
waited until the dinner was over 70
tell him that 1 was married
And the result Of the waiting had
been that before. 1 could prevent
him Jack had told me that he had
loved me for years.
Jack in love with mel could not
realize it.
A queer little wOncer crossed my
mind. Suppose 1 had known Of this
year ago. Would / have married
Jack, and never known Dicky?
Would / have been happier so?
Then there rushed over me the
realization that nothing in the world
mattered but Dicky 1 wanted him,
=. l..
fering, everything else, were but
shadows. My love for my husband,
my need Of him-these were the
only real things.
I Turned To Jack Wildly.
"Oh, Jack, 1 must go hOmei"
Yes. yes. presently. dear. Sit
down here a minute"
He indicated a bench near us. The
afr was crisp. but the sun was shin
ing brightly and / was warmly clad.
1 sat down, more because it did not
seem possible TO discbey the COM
mand in Jacks voice. than through
any volition Of my own.
Margaret" Jacks voice was so
different from his usual one that l
started almost in fear
Yes. Jack"
81 don't want you to reproach
yourself about this. understand,
dear. The right man came along
and OF course you couldn't wait for
me to come back to give my sane
ton"
"Oh. Jack, 7 ought To have wait
ed; l know it. You have been so
good TO me-"
Loss l Discovered.
i've been good TO myself. being
with you" ne returned tenderly.
But I almost wish you had told me
over the telephone. You would
never have known how l felt. and
it would have been better all
around"
He bent toward me. and crushed
both my HANDS in his, looking into
my face with gaze that was in
itself a caress
Now you must go home. little
girl, back-to-your husband" The
words came slowly.
When shall see you again.
Jack ," I knew the answer even be-
fore il came.
When you need me. dear girl. if
you ever do" he replied. II can't
be near YOU without loving you and
hating your husband, whoever he
may be and that is a dangerous
state of affairs But, wherever I
am, note or a wire from the Hotel
Alfred will be forwarded to me.
