Then In the next minute, when he
shook hands with Father Andrew,
the awkward society side OF Lanes
nature sloughed of and his bignrss
snd'splendid worth swept up. He
and Father Andrew seemed to
speak the same language and TO
understand II almost without words.
Because our combined parting would
bulk so large, we decided to have
our coffee in the lobby. and a few
minutes later we met there.

Shelly. the unlimited, announced
that he'd stay to keep old Lane
from looking too much like the Sui
tan OF Turkey on a tour of America
with few OF his pet wives.
At sight OF Shelly the pretty
little Willoughbys began perking
and preening for all the world like
two saucy birds. And Shelly played
up as he always does when attrac-
tive women do that The Willough-
by girls were tiny, vivacious, ex-
ruisitely dressed. and they had
way OF fiuttering their pretty little
hands with an air OF helplessncss.
But their voices were soft and
luscious, with slow Southern
drawl in vivid contrast to their
quick. pecking movements. They
were evidently twins. and fancied
they might take a malicious delight

For a minute or two Shelly de-
voted himself to them. while Lane
and Father Andrew conducted
themselves like long lost frien Is.
This left me to Vals tender mer-
cies-and I'd never been less in a
mood for Val. With the thought
constantly in my mind that disgrace
because of something he wasn't
responsible for hung over Meals
head. i wasn't in any way prepared
to cope with Vars insolence. SO I
was relieved when she turned from
me to Shelly.
"Sheldon-may I claim your COM

said in the scornful tones she seems
to reserve specially for him.

would have the temerity to dispute

heart to deny it, he said in q mock
heroic tone which told me he was
taking a leaf out of Walls book and
finding a way to stop her from MAX

&yal's cream underwent a startled
flush. but her voice was never
smoother than when she replied:
"Since my claim is SO cleverly es-
tablished, I'll announce that the

WENT OUT WITH
WHOM SHE CHOSE.

ID. b. Els letter somehow struck
sympathetic chord. Am thirty
four years old and have been mar
ried fifteen years. My hubby and
were engaged one year and during
that time ] went out with whom i
choose. l presume he did the same.
but our engagement was founded
on true love, not only on fondhess
and admiration. I admit there may
have crept in, at various times,
little doubts. perhaps fear, that the
other might find q more loving mate
but each trusted and we soon de-
cided that each meant happiness to
the other.
Just the week OF my marriage ]
went driving twice with one Of my
best friends at the sacrifice of two
engagements with my dancee.
What were two evenings COM
plared to a lifetime that we were
to spend together In fifteen years
we have grown closer and the men
friends Of single days are still our
friends.
My husband sees in his wife no
silly sentiment for any man and no
distrust has crept in for, aside from
the great love I bear him, I would
suffer a tortured death before l
could let any act of mine bring
shame to him or our darling boy.
No good woman wants to go out
or stay in with any other than her
husband, however much this same
woman may have enjoyed the COM
pany Of some other than her
fancee.
Only love should guide a wise mar
riage, and there certainly will be
no lying or deceit. There are al
ways clouds enough in married life
without distrust. and somehow the
sun always seems to shine brighter
when the little clouds roll by.
