opposition. If she must shade the
truth to gain her point, she did so
glibly. When she won her point--tick-
cts for the theater, string OF iNnita-
ton pearls, a new dress for Cathleen. a
cigarette lighter for Dan, jr.-she re-
joiced in a victory. There was con-
slant, If hidden, warfare between hus-
band and wife. An economic warfare.
Margaret Carroll was her husbands
dependent and he did not hesitate to
let her know 1t.
The other married women Cathleen
knew were like her mother, even the
younger ones They took what was
given to them. That they had borne
children, that they cooked and sewed
and kept the machinery of the home
running with a greater or less degree
of smoothness, did not matter. That
was no more than was to be expected
of them. They must take what they
could get in return.
'Ill never be able to do it." Cathleen
told herself Il couldn't wheedle things
out of Ken or Neil. If they handed me
money grudgingly, I'd want to throw
it at them. If 1 felt I had to cater
to their whims for fear of what would
happen if I didn't, I'd lose my self
respect. Marriage-it should be one
ness of progress, not a game OF crisis
cross"
So Cathleen decided she would like
to get job She said as much at the
family supper table, thereby provoking
three separate and distinct eXclama-
tions of antagonisrn toward her pur-
pose.
Goodness me-" Her mothers ringed
hands were raised in startled protest.

you need?"

"Humph!" Dan Carroll went on bolt

you a job so you can work for him
like his mother does"
Cathleen, sitting beside her father,

"Ken's against my trying anything
except what I'm doing now she SAID,
IF that's any satisfaction to you. Get

SEVENTH INSTALLMENT.

~ ATHLEEN was keeping close to
home Nearly a week had
passed since that morning in
~ Washington Square Park when
two men had told her they
loved her. She wanted to think 1t
over, to weigh and balance the two
in her mind and in her heart. That
she considerably more than liked both
of them, she was sure.
Kenneth Hall caught her imagina-
ton. He was companion for her
dreams, her ambitions. The thought
of him, his fine instinct for digging
at the root of things, his flair for
expressing heroically what he found
there. stimulated her mind. Ken
needed her He drank thirstily of her
praise And her matter-o -factness was
the rein his careening mind needed.
Neil Nelson's attraction for her,
Cathleen could not explain: but the
thought of him made her feel warm
and very much alive.
Occasionally the deep blue eyes OF
the stranger who had skinned the sur
face of a night SO nebulously and then
had gone away across the sea were
upon her, grave, regretful.
Then, too, an idea was taking form
in Cathleens mind. She had been
watching her mother, Margaret Car
