it-unless it would make you hap

why, Bruce, You would be differ
ent, wouldn't care about other people
at all if we had children"
He made no further reply but as he
went down the street he said:
"No--I don't want them It's bad
enough as it is" Then felt remorse-
full that even in his thoughts he had
seemed to find fault with Muriel.
Sometimes he thought it was be-
cause he didn't understand her that
he seemed to be getting so far from
her. Perhaps hers was nature he
would have to wait years before he
knew how TO take her, make her
happy and have little joy himself
without her recriminations. She only
worried him with her demands for
his love in her own way. He had
never heard q word about the hard
ship of working in the kitchen all that
first year, although she hated it, as
he knew. She had been willing to go
without, 10 practice all sorts of econo-
mics in her own personal expenditures.
She had no trousseau because of their
clopement and had bought herself
scarcely anything. She had turned her
littld income over TO help pay the nee
essa expenses without in any way
making HIM feel she was doing any
hing unusual. She hardly spoke of it,
fearing it would hurt. his pride.
Many women would fail in all these
ways. In what had Muriel failed that
he was so disconnected even though
he hid it from herr? She didn't want
him TO be with other people, but
neither did she want outside friends
for herself She wanted to bind him,
keep him in sort of prison of love
with the windows barred against his
escape. This was 1.-THE sepse that
his freedom was curtailed. He no longer
acted of his own free will openly. He
felt he must make apologies even when
he knew there was no need. He must
keep things to himself when he would
have liked to talk them over with her.
Yet he still loved her, or thought he
did. He never had really cared for
any other girl. which was in Muriel's
favor. He could not compare her
with another. HG knew Muriel loved
him, though at times he wished she
loved differently. Sill he never ques.
toned her loyal affection, her passion
ate desire for his society to the exclu-
sion of all else as a proof of her great
love for him.
Yet before they had been married two
years Bruce owned TO himself that some
way he had failed in getting the happi-
ness he had looked for, that Muriel was
often unhappy too in spite of all his
efforts TO please her.
Ito be continued.
