 Marcia hesitated for moment: then as John said nothing she went on. She did not perhaps, know that he couldn't speak, or did not dare to, so fearful was he of the inevitable argument, with Mrs. Vane aiding and abetting Marcia.s
 Tt is nearer downtown, too; so nearer your work Then there is the incest garage. near. It is big enough of private garage-onfy few cars in it. I talked with the man. and he said he would take my coupe.
 q am afraid you will find that a place such as you describe is too ex- pensive for us.- John at last found his voice.
 "Oh. it isn't expensive at all, Is 1t. mother Not considering what one gets. And there was only this one apartment, so I took it and
 You mean you took the refusal of it?"
 NO, I mean I rented It. Mother loaned me the first months rent. The agent had to have it in advance, and was afraid to wait minute. He said there had been several looking at it You see, it is a new house, so very much in demand.
 How much is the rent?" John kept his voice even only by the greatest effort.

 "Only one hundred and fifty $ month Mother thinks it wonderfully cheap as rents go in New York" Duly John wondered just why Mrs Vane thought $50 a cheap rent In the town where she lived the best residence would not rent for more than $50, if for that. Finally, he | said:

cREpENTJAIs IN coURTsHIP

CREDENTIALS IN CoURTSHIP
 Often the letters from Slovers are more Interesting than any answer which can be devised. Most absorb ing of all are those tales of love which is hopeless for some reason. For example, this truly pathetic re- cital of faithlessness-why did man, so keen to wed, desert the girl who adored him?
 "A man several years older than I came to our town. He began at once to go with me, seeing me three or four times a week, and went with no other girl.
 "We seemed to understand each other perfectly and so6n became en- gagged.
 He went to my parents and asked for my hand. His frankness delight ed them. He seemed honest in every way. We planned happy future and the details of our home. All the while he impressed me as absolutely devoted. l was more than happy.
 After our engagement he made a confession. I've never seen a man so moved as he was when he told me that he had been divorced and that his wife was living. He said that he couldn't marry me until he had told the truth, although he had been afraid to do so.
 His story hurt me terribly, but I knew that in spite of his former marriage I loved him devotedly and | that I could never give him up.
 "Afterward our happiness seemed 1 doubled by the test He was almost | abjectly grateful for my trust in him. | Every thing was going smoothly with l our wedding plans when the crash | came.
 | One day he implored me several 1 times to marry him that very after 1 noon I put him oIf-told him to wait l ten days or two weeks. l He left, embracing me tenderly l as usual. He made no complaint. l never have seen him since. T don't know what to do. Forget l him? Wait for him? Hate him be- cause he deserted me-? If he lied to me about h4s love Tor me my heart i is broken.-B. M. G."
 Almost one feels sorry ksYr the man who could abandon the little lady who writes the above. l The older women, however, are l quick to be suspicious and will prob 1 ably surmISe that there was some 1 thing wrong in that story of di-
 vorce. Perhaps the suit was in prog

 To make dough- use one cup flour. one third cup lard, half, teaspoon salt cold water Rub lard in flour and salt, Add water; a few drops at a time, until dough is moist enough to stick together.

CHAPTER XXI

CHAPTER AAI
 As every one is aware, people know nothing about each other until they live together. Marcia told John that all her women friends just raved about her mother and thought them so fortunate to have her for a long visit. John said nothing. He wouldn't hurt Marcia's feelings, yet he would gladly have dispensed with Mrs. Vane's society,
 Now John Aldrieh would have been far happier could he have felt more friendly toward Marcia's mother He would have tried more earnestly had it not been that she not only abetted Marcia in her extravsgant notions. but put ideas in her head. | Mrs. Vane made casual references regarding what she considered a man should have and be before he married: what a wife had a right to expect nowadays While expected to dance attendance upon both Mrs. Vane and Marcia continually, John felt alone, wandering through a dark valley of debt and unsatisfying en- deavor.
 John had sworn to himself that never would he allow himself and Marcia to get in debt beyond what
 
 Mrs. Vane had been with them few weeks he found that unless he were to be constantly making himself ob- noxious in a controversy every time he was in the house, he must give way. Consequently debt piled on debt. Most of what he earned was going for clothes for Marcia, foI parties, dinners and bridge, theaters and concerts, and to entertain Mar cia's mother. who always sided with Marcia in every question broached between her and John. One afternoon when John entered ! his home he felt at once that the air was fairly surcharged with some thing ominous. All through dinner | both Marcia and her mother seemed ! full of a suppressed emotion. He asked no questions; was too much Of a coward to do so, he told himself bitterly.

A prominent New YOrk first-nighter and boulevardier recently gave a par ty at his luxurious apartment, those members of the unfair sex present being the very choicest chorines from half dozen Broadway musical shows, who came in their limousines. One girl had her mulatto maid along. That maid. quite as pretty as her mistress, freely mingled with the guests, and the amazing audacity of it siIenced comment. When the af- fair broke up the mulatto maid stepped up to the man who had given the party and remarked:
