! PERFECT MATCH''--

I6 A PERFECT MATCH"--
That is what every
a. one concerned and
unconcerned declared when the
engagement OF Mary and Jim
was announced.
Both Mary and Jim were more
than popular-they were leaders.
Mary was Of an exquisite type Of
dark beauty and she had q charm
Of personality so elusive and yet
so subtle, fascinating, that she
was loved by every one who
knew her.
Mary might. have married a.
richer man than Jim. for it was
well known that several men
were in love with her. But she
could not have chosen a fiance
finer looking, bigger hearted and
with smore brilliant prospects for
success.
Jim was a lawyer and was rap
idly building up a big. lucrative
practice.
Every one even disappointed
adrnirers-declared that Mary
and Jim were deeply in love, per-
fectly suited to each other and
that the forever after" happi'
ness Of the last page Of the old
fashioned novels was about to de-
scend on them.
Then a cloud appeared on their
horizon. Just when or how it all
began would be hard to say, but
gradually. 1t became obvious that
Mary was insanely jealous Of
Jim.
At first Jim good-naturedly
laughed off his fiancees tenn
permental outbursts. But the
time came when the situation
grew too embarrassing to be
lightly passed over. Mary's OBJ

openly admired her fascinating
fiance-and, above all, the sui
fering that Mary's own jealous
rage caused herself-an this
made Jim thoroughly miserable.
One evening Jim telephoned
at the last moment that he would
be unable to SeepIa theater en-
gagement with Mary because of
a sudden and important appoint
ment with a client.
Mary was wretched-then furi-
ous-jealously imagining that Jim
was spending the evening with
another woman. Finally she
could endure it no longer. She
called UP his home number.
Telephone calls for Jim, it
seemed, were to be switched to a
certain New York number. which
the maid willingly repeated to
Mary. Suddenly a flash Of men,
