desperately. "It's all I can do
for him-after everything"
"You shouldn't go anymore,
dear. Not with Phil loving
you as he does, and you feel
ing the way you do"
II don't love him. Really
I don't"
Myrna shook her head wisely.
"You will-love him, if you
aren't careful. I think you are
in love with him now."
mo" Dee was quite sure
she wasn't in love with Phil.
That was certain. Myrna said
no more about it, but now and
then, when Dee wasn't looking
at her, glanced her way and
studied the younger girls face.
Very Much Upset
Dee was silent the remainder
of the way home. She was
thinking of what Myrna had
said. That she might love
Phil. That she shouldn't go to
see him any more. To take
this from her, the little pleas
ure she had from these visits,
the joy she had when she saw
Phil. The joy it gave to him.
Such a little thing she could
do for him. Such a little thing.
In a few weeks she would

couldn't think about that
couldn't. Wouldn't.
Yet regardless of tDer resolu-
tionS, Phil crept into her
thoughts, and stayed.
That Phil was grateful for
these visits she knew. Nothing
was said about it as they sat
in his room-but she knew her
visits helped him, gave him
courage and strength. He
thought he would be out Of the
hospital in two weeks, then
with a months rest that he
could go back to work. Tony
was not mentioned.
She Likes Phil
you're not falling in love
with Phil, Deep" Myrna asked
one afternoon when they were
coming home from the hospital.
"No-I like him awfully well,
tho. I feel I have to make UP
to him for what Tony did"
Yes. Phil loves YOU" There
was an uncomfortable silence
after her words.
Il don't think you should see
him-anymore," Myrna went
on, after a few seconds.
Il promised him I'd come.
1 have to go Myrna," Dee said
The Washington times., 1931-08-01

see him no more. For then,
he would be home, at his
club, and she could go no
longer to visit him.
Phil looked much older now.
His sandy hair was shot with
grey, hardly visible, but there,
nevertheless. His face held
new lines, deepening as the
days went by. Some were
lines pain had stamped, pin
like around his mouth, broad
on his deep forehead.
Myrna left Dee with o mur.
INJURED excuse at the door Of
her apartment. To write to
Dennis, Dee knew. She al
ways did at this time Of day.
Every day.
The Aftermath
Dee went into her own apart
ment and slipping out Of her
coat, sat down. The advice
Myrna had given her was still
ringing in her ears. She knew
Myrnas would never mention it
again. Once said, she was
through. She was not the kind
to harp and nag.
Perhaps it was sound ad-
vice, perhaps she should stop
her visits to the hospital.
Myrna might be right
Something within her whiS-
pered to her to do as Myrna
had said. Weakly, feebly.
Something tronger told her
to DO what she could for Phil.

it the way she wanted to
Tony came in later, and
kissed her. She returned his
kiss half-heartedly. A kiss she
might give to a brother. Her
mind was still on Phil.

nodded in assent.
She hated them, too. They
had already gone once before
this week. Dee knew the rea-

wanted Dee and his wife to be
together as much as possible.
He had found a job for Tony
in the office of a fellow archi-
tect, a job which although it
did not pay we'll, gave excellent
promise for advancement. Dee
was not to work, not even to
think about it. Myrna would
entertain her, be with her dur
ing the day when Tony was
gone.
A Girls Secret
It was to Myrna that Dee
told her secret. Myrna who
promised to tell no one, not
even Dennis. Somehow Dee
did not want him to know
yet.
Myrna seldom came into the
Curtis apartment at night.
Indeed she insisted they have
dinner alone, and be alone.
Dee could not persuade her to
eat with them.
Tony liked his new work.
Seemed to put his heart in it.
He was enthusiastic about it at
night when he came home, and
told Dee every detail that had
happened during the day.
Sometimes she dered
whether she would ever love
him again as madly, as pas
sionately as she had. That
young wild love seemed dead in
her. something in the past that
she could barely remember. It
couldn't be that she had loved
Tony so blindly. SO terribly
blindly. He was human to her
now. She saw his many faults,
his weaknesses.
She Couldn't Forget
At times they came to her
more plainly, more vividly. Too
vividly. She wanted to forget
them and couldn't.
Phil was so different. So
much more a man. If she had
married him-the thought come

Quiet mornings alone with
Myrna. Myrna saying little.
Her lovely blonde head leaning
back on her chair, her eyes half
closed. The curling smoke of her
cigarette lazily floating through
the warm room.
The peace of it. The silence,
the soothing graciousness of
Myrna. The room which Myrna
transformed by her mere pres
ence.
For a week now Myrna had
been there. Dennis left as soon
as she arrived, but Dee knew
that her father had left Mylna
because he could not stay. She
knew, but said nothing about
it. Dennis wanted her looked
after, and as he couldn't do it,
Myrna must.
The work in California would
not take long a few weeks
more, then he would come back.

Guests at Home

Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
When I have guests for the
evening I have to take them
through a part Of the living
room. Should introduce them
as we pass through, or wait un-
til they have removed their
wraps?
2. When prizes are given at a
party, is 1t correct to have them
in view, or must they be hid
den?
3. After refreshments have
been served on bridge tables,
and the guests wish to sit and
talk, should I attempt to clear
the tables or let them talk over
soiled dishes? G. G.

ward, in this circumstance, to
wait for the introducing until
the guests have removed their
wraps and have returned to the
living room.
2. It is best to keep the prizes
out Of view until they are
awarded.
3. Remove the dishes before
the after-refreshment conversa-
tion begins. There are few
things more unattractive in the
world than soiled dishes, and
they should never be allowed to
remain in sight as guests are
talking. It won't take a min
ute to remove them.

son why Mrs. Bradley insisted

Advice to
LoveIorn
By Beatrice Fairfax
StepmOther's Problem

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Two years ago I married o
widower with three daughters.
Two Of the girls are still in
boarding schools, but one has
a position and lives with US.
Her attitude toward me is like
a stranger. She criticizes me
openly and has asked me not
to use her mothers linens so
frequently. My husband once
said no woman would ever
cause his children to leave
home.
I love my husband but, as
he never reprimandS this dauRh-
ter for her insults to me, I can
not help questioning his love
for me. At IS one has to dress
well and, when I make q new
purchase, my stepdaughter lee
lures me on thrift" I have
tried to keep peace because my
husband is not well. EILEEN.
I agree with you, Eileen, that
yours is a very hard situation
to meet. You love your hus-
band ana wish to keep peace,
but you are in q constant state
Of unhappiness by the critical
attitude Of your Stepdaughter.
Why not start out on a cam
paign to win this girls affec-
tion? It will take q good deal
Of patience, no doubt, but I
believe it could be done. Per
haps you could start by plan
ming some pleasant vacation sur
prise for the two younger sis
ters. Ask her cooperation in
giving them a party. II you
are unselfish, and she sees that
you are . ,nuinely interested in
the welfare Of her sisters and
herself, she will find it hard
to continue her unkind attitude.

The Marry-Go-
Round
By Helen Rowland

MOney-And Matri-mOney
If it took as much time and
money to get married as it does
to get out Of it, matrimony
would probably be as safe, last
ing and fashionable as divorce.
Never say that we moderns
have lost all our faith. Women
still believe all the glowing
promises of the beauty-crearn
advertisements, and men still
continue to buy bottles Of hair
reStorer and reducing belts.
A man seldom stops to ask a
woman if her love will last
forever: because he is usually
perfectly satisfied If it will last
until next week.
A husband, these days, is like
a restaurant spoon; almost any
woman who takes a fancy to
him seems to regard him as
just something to help her
self to.
A feminine bridge party
doesn't really get going until
somebody breaks the news Of
the latest scandal.
The prospective bridegroom
should have showers" and a
hope chest. He will probably
need a cook book, lot Of hole
proof socks and a box Of
bachelors buttons.
A popular bachelor complains
that he can't wear beach paja-
mas because they are too
feminine. He wants to know
why it is that, every time a
man discovers something COM
Portable or useful for himself,
the women grab it and take 1t
away from him.
It is not that women are
really naggy! but it takes so
much argument for a woman
to convince a man that he is
not going to do what he wanted
to do nor going to spend his
vacation the way he intended
to spend it.
Nothing disturbs a man worse
than to find that he has stirred
up a woman's jealousy-except
to find out that he can't.
A mans love may be blind,
but it is seldom deaf, when an
attractive widows money
talks"
