THE LOVE PENDULUM"

white house 1 formerly had.
Then my head would become
clearer and I would remember all
that was past-that I had definitely
broken with Win, that I had loved,
and been loved, and 1t was all over
But still the feeling persisted
vaguely, due to the old surroundings,
that all the past experience was
TO be relieved, that the same thing
to begin again. So I was not sur
prised one afternoon when my door
opened, and Winthrop's mother
walked into the room, her arms full
of f:owers-just as she used to come
to me.
Without a word I held out my
hands and she laid her flowers on
the table and came over and kissed
me. And I cried and she did too,
and in that very feminine fashion we
took up our friendship where it was
broken off when I had left Wells

She was exactly the same-limp,

gray eyes set in q lined, pale face.

II know. Don't[try to talk too
much. They said you yer too sick
to have written. probably. Then this
morning, / got a letter from Win

months. He said you'd left his. said
you'd agreed to live apart. But we

HE said he'd heard you'd left

right. only in the same mall comes q
