You're going to Remote give
Virginia the one gift she can't re.
fuse = her freedom.'I repeated
mechanically. staring at Pat with g
complete sense of unreality.
1t seemed a bad dream. Or some
malicious fairy's' twisted conception
of drama. For Pat was expressing
the very idea Virginia had so proud
ly worked out but a short time ago
the plan from which 1 wasn't more
than half sure that 1 had diverted
her.
You can't. You mustn't"
II can and I must" replied Pat
grimly. "Why do you question it ?
What other way out is there? What
other solution has there been since
the night when you tried to bring
lis together in your own home and
she couldn't be getting away fast
enough? Had she spoken to you
or Jim-since?"
mo, but that doesn't matter. IT
will come right in the end"-
will it?" interrupted Pat. Il
sadly misdoubt it, Anne. For a
long time I've been going along
blindly waiting for things to come
right. They don't when a woman
so despises a man that she turns
against her own people for the
knowing of him. The miracle can't
happen when a woman is filled with
loathing at the thought of coming
back into her own place in the
world-owning her family estate
through the man who was once her
husband. My gifts and I are black
shame and disgrace in her eyes. I'll
be going to Reno"
THE slime of the divorce court
you'll drag her through that?"
cried.
"I'll see that it doesn't befoul
her" replied Pat gravely. and he
swept off his hat in an unconscious
gesture of contriteness.
Then you're going to perform a
great miracle" I said scornfully.
You'll go to the divorce court and
wrest your freedom from the law.
And people aren't going to date it
all back to just such an incident as
occurred at the restaurant to-day!
oh. no! People aren't going to
gloat over the choice tidbit you Of
fer them-indeed not!"
What do you mean?" demanded
Pat.
"I mean Sheldon Bake. mean
gossip and slander. I mean the end
of Virginia's good name" I replied.
$50 that's what the world would
be saying - that's what it will be
doing to the fine pride of her"
murmured Pat more to himself than
to me.
After that we drove on in ST.
lence for a while. Smiling folk
drove by us IN luxurious cars. I
wondered what dramas of life and
human happiness were masked by

Advice to the Lovelorn
FAINT HEART AND FAIR lady

DEAR MISS F'AIRFAX:
l am twenty, am making a good
salary and in love with 4 young girl
Of nineteen years. Although 1 have
been gSing about with her for two
years. she has not as yet expressed
any feeling for me outside of friend
ship. Now | want to be more than a
friend to this young woman. whom
regard as fine type of American
W womanhcod.
l have good habits. keep early
hours and save as much money as !
can. If there is any way of express
ing my affection for this girl, with
out hurting her feelings, my mind
would be at ease.
| am afraid if she does not return
my love l will have to give her up,
although I dread doing so, as | can
not continue being just a friend to
this young woman.
ANXIOUS.
1t Is not unusual for a young girl
to express any feeling of affection for
u young man before he has told her
he loves her. She is probably waiting
patiently to hear this thing; have
courage and tell her. Faint heart "
ycu know. never won fair lady"

faces that told so little of what was
going on in hearts and minds.
"Of course. I'll not be going to
Reno now.' said Pat at last.
I reached out and laid my hand
over his, hoping some message of
my admiration for his chivalry
would wing out through the cleo
tricity of that touch. But Pats
hand lay impassive and strangely
cold under mine. I turned to him.
and more than ever the terrible
grimness of his face struck me. 1t
was masklike and drawn into old
and haggered lines. The fine. proud
set of his upflung head was gone and
he sagged at chest and shoulders.
"Pat-you're so splendid. so
chivalrous. 1 feel sometimes as If
you were my brother, too - like
Neal" 1 ventured. II want you to
know how-how much I care about
your happiness; how much 1 value
our friendship"
II know. little Anne" he said, re-
turning pressure for pressure like
the good pal he had come to be. II
know. You've st tood by. And Jim
mie, too. But it's hopeless now.
You'll have to let me go it alone
now"
Not to divorce. That is decid-
ed, isn't it?" I insisted, and I don't
know now whether that insistance
was stupid or wise.
Not to divorce. There's another
way out. I'll take it," said Pat.
Another way out?" / grasped al
most in a daZe.
Pat corrected himself, gravely.
Some other way out. Some way
I'll find it, and finding it, be glad to
take it,"
"Oh Pat, you mustn't" cried, not
knowing against what I was pro-
testing, but at the beginning of a
feeling that grew all the rest of the
time I was with him-the feeling
that 1 had to prevent something
sinister and menacing. You mustn't
do thing until you have talked 1t
over with me-your sister. For
am that. want to have you know
that I am that"
THE dearest of sisters" replied
Pat. lifting my fingers quickly to
his lips with a touch of his old
grace.
Then the devil-may-care reckless
ness of him crept back into his voice
for a minute and, instead of being
welcome. after the haggard droop,
1t frightened me more than ever.
'Faaith, Alanna," said Pat. Kind
ness like yours is a memory of a liv-
ing well. A man might carry 1t into
desert of sand and loneliness with
him. Or into another world"
Then such terror took me by the
throat that I dared not say another
word. We drove my swaying green
trees and past sward OF living green
dappled with ardent sunshine, but
the world seemed cold and gray TO
me-a fearsome place. Because 1t
had come to me that Pats other
way out was a far more dreadful
one ever than the path of divorce.

And I felt I couldn's stop him. Then
Pat gave me a last bit of cruel
evidence to make out my case.

ANXIOUS.
SHE APPEARS FICKLE
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX.


| am writing you this letter as sort
of an inquiry as to the question of
"WhHt shall I do?" l am nineteen
and for six months have been in love
with Il girl one year my junior. For
three months she has shown every
sign of caring a great deal for me.
She even went as far as to tell a
young man with whom she had been
going that their Friendship would
have to draw to a close. as she found
out that she cared more for me than
she did for him. | went away, and
when returned 1 found her with the
party she had Tilted. Now, I would
like to have your advice as to what
can do to gain back her love.
ANXIOUS.
Do not worry too much. A young
lady of this type likes variety, and
enjoys playing with love rather than
falling In love seriously. Doubtless
she will throw over the second young
man for you, as she did once before.
and then his turn will come next.
