Poor Dick! Leslie, he seemed all
broken up to think that for one mo-
ment his dying wife should have
thought he could not take care Of
the baby she was leaving behind.
It seemed rather strange to me,
too, Leslie, but I knew how apt Bee
was 70 arrange everything for every
one around her, and I said:
II expect, Dick, that Bee thought
Paula could pay more attention to
the baby than you"
That's just it, Sally. Paula
works just as hard as 1 do. If she
were going to give the baby to some
one why didn't she give it to wo-
man who had no profession?"
"You must remember, Dick, that
Bee was rather old-fashioned, after
all. 1t would never enter her head
that man could bring up a baby,
especially a girl, as we'll as a woman,
even though that woman were quite
as busy as a man"
"Did-did she tell you anything
else?" asked Dick, visibly enbar-
raised.
$ Eyes. She told me she hoped you
and Paula would marry as soon as it
was feasible after her DEATH
II wonder what made her think
that would be a good thing for me
to do. Sally, do you believe that Bee
had a crazy idea that 1 cared more
for Paula than I did TO rher?
e IT know I was foolish enough to
have been fascinated with Miss Per.
rter when I first came out here, but
] came to my senses very soon, and
saw that the only woman for me
was Bee.
IT told her the whole story-was
perfectly honest with her and asked
her to let me come back to her. I
have never been sorry for q minute
that she was sweet enough to let me
come.
q do you suppose that she never
got over that time, and that It
preyed upon her mind until it had
become an obsession? She married
me. you know, and because great
friends with Paula, and she must
have thought that Paula was a good
woman, an honest woman, and a
loyal woman, for she wants her to
have her child
IT would never forgive myself
II I though I had hurt Bee in any

ms how I am going to get along
without her.
J. needn't tell you, Leslie, that men
