That hectic wartime romance OF
hers. eliminating in tragic pledge
half an hour before Capt. Jack Far
quarhar had marched away to his
death in the trenches. was as the
pale light of a sickle moon before
the brilliant MONDAY sun of love, as
she knew it now.
She didn't even think of Jack
Farquarhar during her honeymoon
The vague vision of a lean dark
face, of gray, ironically humorous
eyes, of 1.-the, body splendidly sci
off by khaki, vanished completely
from her memory. She had eyes
and thoughts and heart only fol
Herbert.
She liked to look at him, as he
sat beside her in the car when they
drove every afternoon along the
edge of the palm-fringed sea.
He was not handsome in dash
ing way; but his good looks, his air
of breeding, and his complete self
control proclaimed him a man OF
the world, sure Of himself and OF
his position.
With Herbert Ware, this was no
false confidence. If he had been a
clerk, he undoubtedly would have
succeeded as an efficiency expert;
he possessed that methodical, cor
rect, careful type of mind.
AS it was, with his inherited
wealth and social position, he was
just as careful, just as methodical
just as correct. He worked because
he liked it, going to his office every
day, as regularly as any clerk in his
employ.
When they returned HON from
the honeymoon and Lila learned
this, she protested vigorously. She
was young and pretty and spoiled.
She wanted husband who would
play about with her twenty-four
hours out Of the twenty-four; she
resented his interest in his work.
A ,FTERWARD, she was to thank
IN Heaven for his refusal to in
dulge her! If Herbert had been
under foot, an idle husband, always
about the house in those awful days

1t was like Herbert to have their
new home in complete readiness
when they returned to New York
1t was a smart town house in the
Seventies, on the right side of Fifth
avenue. Everything was in place
when the car drove up to the door
even the flowers:
Dorothy, at Herbert's request, had
seen to that, for Lila had been
motherless since infancy, and her
father was too busy in Wall Street
to pay much attention to a daughter
who, in spite of certain youthful
rebellions, had eventually done the
correct thing and made most suit

BILE young man.
Dorothy was just leaving; she
met them in the hall.
You'll find everything perfect,
think" she told Lila, as she kissed
her warmly. How well you both
look!"
But you're not going" Lila tried
to slip the fur coat from Dorothy'S
shoulders. You're staying to din

Herbert echoed the invitation
politely, but he frowned. He was
jealous of Dorothy. She relieved
him by firmly refusing.
