in the red-gold mop of hair. Per-
haps she would smile at Nora Lee.
Oh-how carefree and happy and
luxurious were those days! So filled
up and often 80 vivid. She had
never been unhappy. she had never
felt her heart cold and heavy as a
stone.
She remembered biting things Con-
ME said of marriage. ''The survival
Of wedlock proves the stupidity of
the human race--minds chain-ganged
to the past, afraid of freedom!" And
that other crude jest: 1.-THE first
ninety-nine years are the hardest"
The phone rang. 1t rang and rang.
She didn't intend &. to answer. She
wasn't going out. They had decided
to economic. Even carfare mounts
up and you can't go down town
without spending about half dollar.
AN INVITATION
The phone kept ringing. She flash
ed to it and grabbed off the hook
What do you want!" she demanded
swiftly.
/ Came soft, chuckling: You"
Her breath froze, then it swelled
and the tears raced down her cheeks.
"You've not hung up on me, Nora
Lee"
"Why, moi"
do you hate me?'
1cily polite: What makes you
ask"
"Oh, nothing at all. Will you come
down and have lunch-please:"
I'm sorry, thank you, but l
can't"
"You mean you won't? Are you
that sore? Please come"
I'D rather not-not today
'Oh, all right them"
She hung up quietly. Now she
felt worse than before. Why didn't
he insist? why didn't he beg longer:
But no! He could just crush her
to. the earth and then casually say !:
f"Oh, all right them" So that's the
way with a man, once they're sure
of you!
1t never occurred to Nora Lee that
she was merely suffering the COM
mon ailment of young wives-the in
ability to step down from the &C.
static heights of love 10 the hard
payements of living. She was used
to a lover. and didn't wish him ex-
changed for a Monday-morning-to-
Saturday might type of husband. She
wanted all the romance, and even
the false gallantries of courtship, per
petuated in marriage-no matter that
this meant she wanted an arch-angel
and not a man.
But even a Galli-Curci can't fling
out flute notes Of the wren eternally
and if she could the high pitched
beauty would sooner or later wear
the soul to FRAGILE and one would
shout irritably for quiet.
So Dane Herrick had been guilty

She would probably leave-yes-walk
out quietly.
Hhen he would have all the privacy
he wanted! Then his disgusting love
of order would not be offended by a
quick-tempered, helter-skelter type of
person like herself.
She tried to remember the exact
words he had said-the words that
had so violently wounded here. Was
it: "Oh. please Nora Lee, leave my
things alone y Was it that, or was
it: "Oh, please, Nora Lee, put that
box back. i want it." Anyway, he
had added: 81 had those plans in a
certain order"
She had taken an odd, inlaid box
from his desk because it went so
nicely with the room. She set it
on the table. intending to use it for
cards and bridge scores. She had
very carefully laid the plans in the
drawer.
And the moment he saw ii. he got
excited and had all but shouted at
her! Shouted-yes-asain the hand
kerchief went precisely to her eyes.
LIKE DEPENDENT
She wouldn't have cared il she
were the kind Of person who intruded
OIL others-who took liberties, But she
wasn't that kind of person.s In
fact, she was extremely shy of taking
possession in the slightest way of him
or his treasures. So the hurt ate
and ate. 1t drove its tooth deep into
her memory and touched buried sores.
Yes-two weeks ago she had only
said Take your overcoat," and he
had answered, "Don't mother me-"
He spoke TO her CURLY as though
she were a dependent. But she
could get her job back in a minute
and earn more than he did. Maud
Bronson told her it would be open.
She began TO picture the scene in
the office. Nearly noon, the girls
would be getting restless-eager to
be out on the streets. Maude would
glance about tolerantly; perhaps
make some careless, sarcastic re-
mark about people who watch time
so zealously; she would stick pencil

ON REAcTlONARY MARKET
By W. s. COUSINS,

NEW YORK, March 14.-Stocks
were pressed for sale in the short
session Of the market today and
prices were reactionary from the
start. Special weakness was APP
parent in the so.called pool stocks,
the steel stocks and the oils. Sell
ing of the oils was more persistent
than has been seen in any previous
session OF the week and prices
offered less Resistance to pressure.
Many OF the active oils declined
more than point in the first hour
while comparison of current prices
with the January high levels show
numerous losses of six or eight
points.
With United States Steel selling
at near the low for the week and
selling pressure renewed on the in
dependent STEEL motor, copper and
equipment stocks, further declines
took place in most of the active
stocks in these groups. Bethlehem
Steel broke to a new low for the
year at AZ; Gulf States and Cruel
BILE lost most Of their buoyant
spirit. Baldwin, American Can,
and General Electric put up stiff
resistance to bearish selling and
held fairly steady while American

covered slightly from the opening

DEAR MR.. FIXIT: There is no
street light at the corner of Carroll
ton Ave. and FIfty-Third ST., which
leaves it very dark at night. 1t
was my understanding that there
should be a light at every intersec-
ton of streets within the city linn

Why is there no light? And what
steps should one take to have one
put there?

One of them is the question of

You can't see the fire hydrant for

To have the weeds cut you must

clerk on duty will obtain the neces-
sary information and correct the
condition. But be sure to have

DEAR MIR. FIXIT: The property
owners in Healing Ave, at Thir-
teenth St., are much annoyed by
a hole left in the intersection
by plumbers Who tapped in for
water and gas. After a tenn
porary filling nothing further has
been done toward repairing the
hole. The city authorities no doubt
gave permission to cut the street,
but failed to inspect their finished
work. The hole is getting larger
from the incessant pounding of
automobiles. Many a person has
had his head bumped against the
top or was turned over in his seat.
This is a case Of everybody's bust
ness, but nobody seems to do more
than to complain to the other fellow.
