Possibility of Remsrrisge
Again Worries Physician
But the anxieties of the patient man in
Seattle were not over. Again rumor raised
its. disquieting head. Miss Frederick had
come to New York. During one of Mr..
Mack's frequent illnesses she had called
upon him at the Presbyterian Hospital.
Many recalled another poet, he who said of
woman:
when pain and anguish wiring the brow
mnstering angel thou
The offices of pity as reawakener of
love were recalled. Would the Macks be
reconciled? Might they remarry?
The playwright's hopes seemed to be to
that end. He escorted the star and former
wife to the Pennsylvania Station and there
was an affectionate leave taking when she
departed for Los Angeles. Mr.. Mack openly
expressed his hopes that his period of pro-
baton might result in second marriage
to the woman he said he still loved.
But MIR. Mack's recovery was not per-
manent Illness and outbreaks of tempera-
ment recurred. After cowboy scene
played in the public park at New Rochelle,
to the surprise and edification Of the
sedate townsfolk he took train for Cal
gary to visit his parents on their Cana
dian ranch. When his health was at least
in part restored he returned to Los An
geles.
The announcement of his marriage there
to Mrs. Stone ended surmises of his nup-
tials with Miss Frederick Upon learning
of this, Willard Mack's fourth marriage,
the quiet physician in Seattle resolved
upon action. Leaving his Office in charge
of an assistant he took the fastest train
on the coast for Los Angeles.

At all events it brought blush to the
cheek that had paled from too close con-
centration upon the blue light Of the
studio She replied to the note: Il will
drive from my studio and have tea with
YOU in the gardens of your hotel"
How They Met Again
After Score of Long Years
He met her in the lobby of the hotel.
Spectators saw a man of dignity and mid
die age meet and grasp the hand of the
famous beauty. They saw her smile and
watched them pass out into the sunshine
and the garden.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jack Gardner (Louise
Dresser), slipping their tea at the next
table, nodded at Miss Frederick. Half an
hour later Miss Frederick said:
won't you take spin with us to Santa
Ana"
Love to-" replied Miss Dresser.
Mr.. and Mrs Gardner occupied a back
seat. They noticed that Miss Frederick
was in deep and apparently happy COM
munion with the old friend to whom she
had introduced them. But though citizens
of that State Of amazement, California.
they were surprised when the car stopped
before the court house and Miss Frederick,
flashing them smile, said
1--WE are going to get marriage license.
Will you be witnesses to our marriage?"
The license was secured. The marriage
took place at the parsonage of the First
Christian Church., the Rev. G. f. Porter
officiating. The ceremony over they
feasted democratically from sandwich
plates at an outdoor stand on the street
corner and dashed back to Beverly Hills.
Miss Frederick, now Mrs. Rutherford,
told them that there would be no wedding

"for am in the middle of picture at
the studio"
When the women kissed each other good
by there were tears in the eyes of each.

"This marriage will be happy and it will
last Think how long he has waited"
She continued her work in the studio.

Seattle and will practice in Los Angeles.
