early married days. But her gray
eyes were smooth and serene. They
hadn't even a hint of the quizzical
jadegreen I'd often seen in their
depths. l sighed with relief.
Jim's n regular man." l said
lightly. Il suppose they are all
alike in thinking themselves the
lords of creation and in wanting
women to kow-tow to them"
Betty caught my hand in hers and
turned me to face her. Her eyes
searched mine until l felt myself
crimsoning under her gaze.
I'm glad you can blush and get
fused and uneasy" she said after
a moments scrutiny. You sounded
hard for a moment. Never let your
self get hard. Anne. Jim didn't
marry you for your sturdy oak
qualities. He fell in love with your
sweetness and fragrance, little Lilac
Lady. .. Oh, here's Terry, and
guess who's with him? ?'
My heart gave a great jump. Jim!
Jim was coming. Terry had brought
him. I'd be very sweet, not hard.
Betty's advice, so lightly given
was worth taking. I closed my eyes
tight for a second and opened them
on a smiling world. Then l turned
my head to greet Terry and his
companion. But it wasn't Jim.
1t was Anthony Norreys.

Reliable Method Of Hair Care

Hair is by far the most conspic-
uous thing about us and is prob
ably the most easily damaged by
bad or careless treatment. If we
are very careful in hair washing,
we will have virtually no hair
troubles. An especially fine sham
poo for this weather, one that brings
out all the natural beauty of the
hair that dissolves and entirely
removes all dandruff, excess oil and
dirt. can easily be used at trifling
expense by simply dissolving a tea
spoonful of canthrox (Which you
can get at any druggist's), in cup
of hot water. This makes a full
cup of shampoo liquid, enough SO
1t is easy to apply it to all the hair
instead of just the top of the head.
This chemically dissolves all i'm
purities and creates soothing,
cooling lather. Rinsing leaves the
scalp spotlessly clean, soft and
plant. while the hair takes on the
glossy richness of natural color,
also a fluffiness which makes 1t
seem much heavier than it is. At
ter canthrox shampoo, arranging
the hair is pleasure.

When Jim flung out of our apart
ment and went to his club l went
down into the very depths of de-
spair. | felt that everything was
over for us two, that we had come
to the parting of the ways ana
had gone beyond it.
Ali that endless night | had to dig
my nails into my palms to keep my
self from going to the telephone
and begging Jim to come back But
| got through the hours somehow
without humiliating myself so ab-
jectly.
In the morning l determined to
telephone the canteen and to ask
for duty with two units that day.
This double shift would busy me
all the afternoon and evening ana
keep me from grovelling before Jim
or from giving myself away to any
of our friends. l couldn't bear the
thought of facing any one who
would perceive my unhappiness and
guess the cause of 1t.
I'll never ask Jim to come back,
1 told myself. Never! If he
doesn't need me, I'm not going to
beg him to come to me because
need him. After a few days I'll get
adjusted to this and be able to bear
it betterAthen l can see people"
So l wrote Phoebe a note saying
that l had no news yet and wouldn't
take up any of her time until l
had. There was a double reason for
my wanting to avoid Phoebe. |

heard of Meals engagement, and l
couldn't stand talking it over with
her.
Perhaps another woman might
have been braver, but my world was
crumbling under my feet and l had
no way to piece it together nor to
find a foothold in another world.
Just as I was going to the tele-
phone to call the canteen the tele-
phone tangled. 1 stopped with my
hand on my heart. If it were Jim?
1t was Beatty 1 had never been
less anxious to see her, but
couldn't avoid her. Why did it have
to be Betty, of all persons?
We're in town just for the day.

You'll come, won't you?"

casually.
No; he's-gone," replied truth
fully enough.

But I've bit of shopping l must

of course" l replied. And then
we arranged our meeting place.
1t seemed to me that Fate was
taking my day out of my hands.
After a morning of shopping
Betty and 1 arrived at the hotel
where we were to meet Terry at
one.
"Terry's never late" commented
Betty, after several minutes of
waiting. I'm wager he's waiting
for Jim. Has your lord and master
learned anything about prompt
ness?"
Jim doesn't keep me waiting"
replied.
Betty laughed and searched my
face with friendly amusement.
You should have heard how
you dared a mere husband to keep
you waiting. Jim's still a boy, you
know, and has a boys faults-tardi-
ness, vanity, responsibility"
You sound as il you were de-
scribing a weakling," I said bitterly,
having just experienced a glimpse
of how set and determined Jim
could be.
"A weakling?" Betty laughed.

Jim has a lot of latent force and
determination. If he'd married a
tactless creature or an ardent
feminist there would have been
breakers away for the Jimmies.''
