not in her mind a clear picture of
what Bernie's $14 would buy. The
glamour of the uptown flat-tenement
though 1t was, but modern-was still
upon her. She dwelt more on having
had 1t than on losing it. 1t was rath-
er a proof Of life's kept promise than
the betrayal Of hopes. If 1t had exist
ed, 1t would again, for facts are only
viewpoints after all. She was young.
Love was still warm. The novelty Of
marriage, motherhood and housewif-
cry was keen and fresh. OF course,
she realized there would have to be
strict economies. But there was zest
in thrift, satisfaction in making little
go far. Besides, she was used to 1t,
and knew how.
She had every intention of keeping
a clean, coy home in her grimy tene-
ment. The dreariness of the street
should be shut out. Whatever dirt,
whatever confusion Of washtubs, un-
made beds, soiled dishes, Uttered
floors and sqrawky babies existed in
the neighbors' fats. should form no
part of her existence. She and Bernie
and Robsie would live in a poor but
clean and sunny little world of their
own.
She was mildly disturbed when Ber

he was a lot better, and set out as

street that day, seeing off the loaded
trucks, checking his shipments, cor
recting the marking of a case of goods

He came home with headache and

He went to work next day, coughing
distressingly, and racked with pain
through the lungs. He came home
early, and Annie saw by his flushed
face and strained look that something
more than mere cold was the matter.

My answer depends entirely upon
your age. If you are very young l
think it would be best to go with sew

to marry him later on, I should think
it would be best to tell your mother

Il Chance to Live---By Zoe Beckley

Without waiting for supper, he lay
down on the couch "for few minutes
nap" as he said. Now thoroughly
frightened, Annie flung on her things
and went for DR.. Kelley, the old physi-
clan who had always been called in
when any of the Hargans were sick.
His office was six or eight blocks
away. When Annie got there she was
told the doctor had recently given up
practice and gone away to rest.
But there's DR.. Byrne," said the
woman who opened the door. He
takes care of the ould doctors work.
He's in, ma'am."
DR.. Byrne was young and brisk.
He agreed to accompany Annie homo
to have a look at Bernard.

he said, casually. COR a touch Of grip;
