The Discoverer

The thing that famed in Julia's face
was anger.
After the front door slammed, she
said, "You had no right to take what
l said that way"
II took 1t as I took 1t. 1t didn't
occur to me that there was any other
way Of taking 1t. Six months ago you
made 1t plain that you didn't wish to
go on living with me as my wife, and
you've never intimated since that your
wishes have changed. When l heard
you say you never wanted to go back
to our old way Of living, l thought
that was what you meant. It's hardly

But Julia wouldn't have 1t. "You
should have seen her face" she cried.
"She fairly ran out Of the room. I
don't know what she thought"
Her insistence maddened him. "Does
nothing matter to you," he demanded,
"even at a time like this, except what
other people may think? The situa-
ton has been plain enough to her, any
how from the first. 1t was she who
told me, the day 1 came home from
California, that you'd moved my things

whether you'd discussed your reasons
with her or not, and / didn't much

1t was the reason itself / was con-
cerned with. I thought then that you'd
done it because you believed I'd been
having an adulterous relation with an
other woman. Even If I had been sure
that that was the reason, l don't know
that I'd have defended myself. The
only defense you'd have accepted at
that time would have been a proof OF
lack OF opportunity, and had no such
proof. But l wasn't sure, even then,
that that was your reason, or that
that was what you really believed. 1
thought you might be pretending to
that belief as an excuse. Since then,
I've become convinced Of it. I don't
believe that at this moment you have
the slightest misgiving that I've ever
been unfaithful to you"

Diarist Kept Account of Magellan's Voyage

Fernando Magellan was a Portu-
guese navigator born about 147O.
early in the Sixteenth century he
offered his services to Charles v OF
Spain. He was given command OF
fleet of five vessels and 23O men. With
these he sailed in September, 1919,
to find a western route to the East
Indies. He passed part of 1920 in the
bay of Saint Julian, where serious
mutiny was suppressed by the execu-
ton Of two of his captains. In October,
1920, he rounded South America, dis
covered and passed through the strait
which now bears his name.
He pursued his course through the
Pacific ocean, of which he was the
first navigator. He reached the Phil
ippine islands and was received by
the prince Of Zebu. He became an

me about, is it? You came home to
ask me whether I'd consent to put a
mortgage on the house, and I said of
course would"
"'Of course y" he quoted.
Il don't know why it made you
angry that l said of course I tried
to go on and tell you that I hadn't
minded the housework and doing with
out the car. I said it had made me
happy to think that 1 was-helping
you little. Are you trying to quarrel
with me? Is that what you want?'
He leaned his elbows on the table
and buried his face in his hands. Was
that what he wanted? He didn't know.
He could deny nothing she'd said. She
was right, of course, in saying that
now wasn't the time to discuss the
Ingraham affair. If he was going to
put mortgage on the house he ought
to go back to town this afternoon and
get things started with the real estate
people. She'd given him no grounds
for a quarrel in what she'd said about
that. She'd been perfectly reasonable
throughout. And it was that-her
calm patronizing reasonableness-t
was driving him frantic He figured
it as a mess of drapery-faded dusty
drapery, at that-that he would like
to tear away with his hands. He
would like to see her real mind-or
soul, whatever you wanted to call it
naked, for once.
"All right, we'll talk about the mort
gage" His voice sounded thick and
muffled. He hardly knew whether
he'd spoken audibly or not. "You said
of course, you'd consent. Why would
you?"
He waited while for an an~-ver to
that question, but didn't get one. She
drew in breath, as if to speak, but
apparently found no words that suited
her.
"Would it be-" he persisted, "be-
cause you thought, in spite of Will
lard's opinion, that had chance to
succeed? Pull the business out of the
mud? Make our fortune?"
She flushed at his tone. Its undis-
guised irony must have, rasped like a
file, but she answered him quietly. II
don't think Bert would have refused
to help if he had thought there was
any chance"
"And since Bert is successful man
and l am failure, you agree with
him."
