Trouble is this thing of Stevies work.
Mama wants it settled now. SO she can make
plans for the wedding Papa wants us to go
abroad ON our trip; that's one of the things
he'll give U.s.
1T has got mama all upset Shed rather
Stevie would give up his position now. But
guess the younger generation knows more about
handling men. I told mama no. The best way
is to let Stevie try it, and maybe after a while,
when he sees 1t won't work, he can 60 in with
papa
See what won't work." Jessica had to
break in.
INA /HY, trying to keep up with his book sell

heve in boys going in with their wives fathers
unless they want to and can be perfectly happy.
"Of course, Stevie's been selling all these
ing books for the same company. And as told
papa there isn't much difference between
selling books and real estate.
Now want to ask you, Jessica-you don't
mind my calling you Jessica, do you? You see
I feel as If I'd known you long time What
I wanted to ask you is, do you think why,
what's the matter? You're not ill?"
Jessica Cartwright had risen and was stand
ing beside her chair. She dropping,
Il must ask you to excuse me-" she said
shakily. You see. just came in from work
and I've had no dinner. am little faint.
Would you mind letting me on? Call
me at my Office tomorrow, or sometime"
She stood smiling warmly at her visitor,
Maurine looked helplessly around the apart

Won't you let me fix you something?
can't leave you this way
''Please!" Jessica managed to say. TN be
all right. am used to it. Some rest and q
little tea will fix me up right Call me up
at my Office in the morning"
Jessica walked stifiy to the couch and
pressed Maurine's coat and hat on her. Puz-
zled but submissive the girl let herself be
ushered out Of the apartment
JeSsica was sitting in one of the fireside
chairs, leaning back with closed eyes, when
Stephen opened the kitchen door and came
slowly into the room.
IF you have that cocktail there, Stephen"
she said weakly, you may pour me httle7
That was something Stephen could do. He
came back glass in hand and leaned over her,
all solicitude
II could catch only snatches of it," he said.
II expect you think she's pretty personal
and all that. Lot Of it I didn't hear. She's
really an awfully nice girl and they're wonder
ful people They want to do so much for q
fellow. It's hard to resist"
Jessica raised a hand.

own place Stephen. She will be sending for
you there. Probably there's a message there
now telling you she was arriving. You viii
be expected over at the Biltmore tonight"
II can stay and have our cocktail"
Jessica put her glass ON the table.
Drink one and rum"
He took his old chair and drank his cock
tail while Jessca sat SILENT her eyes still closed
Then he got his overcoat and brief case. When
he was ready to go he stood studying her.
she's really an awfully nice girl, JessicA
You have no idea how big hearted her people
are"
With trace Of worry in his voice he added:
She's the kind who wouldn't understand

here and read while I work"
He got to his feet

- the familiar compartments in the Kitchen
cite. As she changed. repaired her hair and
makeup the chnk Of glassware the opening
and closing Of drawers, the rattle of silver as
he searched for the right spoon, reached her
and warmed her. bringing back the question
Should they have parted; could they, with
safety, marry each other again?
She paused m a half complete thought
about the resurge Of her old affection for him
when, like this, she saw him; her attention was
arrested by a long emphatic ring. At the
speaking tube she said, This IS Jessica Cart
wright" Then she added, why, yes. am
about to 60 out to dinner. Indeed? Well, yes.
In that case, come up
Before she released the door four flights
down she went to Stephen in the kitchenette.
TITS Maurine. Isn't that your girl from
Chicago? She is downstairs; coming to call on
me-"
She ran and touched the switch, not to seem
to delay too long.

You will be married again. This time success

HE stood for a moment by the white mantel,
gazing into the redness among the Jumps
Of camel coal in the CRATE. After moment
she replied to his thought:
II have been thinking OF marrying again
Stephen; but it would mean going to Long
Island and having a house with grounds. It is
true I am housewifely, but on a minute scale.
1T Is somebody you don't know-George
Kinney. He is desirable; he owns an electri-
cal supply business. He could give me a lot;
travel and ease, right away; no waiting. But
am afraid to undertake anybody outside our
own world"
you tnink thatS dangerous?'
Stephen put the question in q tone that
caused Jessica to take her gaze from the fire
and regard him curiously.
'T do" She said it softly but decisively.
"You are so sure Of yourself Of every
thing" he protested. You make q wavering
man uncomfortable. You were sure you want
ed to marry me; then you were sure you wanted
to be unmarried; now you are sure about re-
marrying.
"T was never sure I wanted to break up
When am with you feel as you do about
people outside our business; other times am
far from sure. I want 50 much and have SO
little"
ct believe in what we are doing" she replied
simply. Remember have been with publish
ing houses ever since left school seven
years, So have you. It's our world I could
marry again somebody who talks my
language.
'.But even when drag myself home here
from the office, completely done UP, can't
picture myself marrying into electrical supplies
T-ra I,rSx,
all my irritating, discouraging but sweet con-
facts with people who are always absorbed IN
next seasons books
II have been thinking about remarrying, too"
Stephen told her.
1.-THE girl in Chicago?"
He nodded.
"You will not be coming here much longer
then"
IT suppose not. There's O difference In the
point of view. To me and you 1t is all right
for me to carry key to your apartment. and
drop In here and build the fire and smoke and
talk when I'm in town. 1t might be little
difficult to explain to her And, after we were
married, I shouldn't be doing 1t unless she
knew"
Jessica was silent Stephen was stretched
out to his considerable length, his hair fall
ing over his forehead in the old disorder, his
chin resting in the hand that held his pipe.
Noticing the blackness outside the windows
she crossed the room and turned on another
lamp that stood on a table strewn with books
magazines and papers. She looked down and
fingered two or three cardboard folders.
"I really ought to read these manuscripts
tonight Stephen. What are your plans? II
you want to sit there can do some Of them.
What about dinner2"
Sounds like old times" he said easily
without stirring. Trying to pm me down
about what we shall do. Remember? Some
of our hardest battles were fought over that.
Things unimportant in themselves
She turned and looked toward the back Of
his chair and head.
Don't speak that way about those times.
Stephen. It hurts. If you had good trip;
If you sold enough books to pay your half OF
the check, let's 60 down and have some dinner.

To Stephen as he rose lazily in the freight
and stepped forward she said, "One of the

Jessica put her hat and coat behind q
curtain. Then, after housewifely glance
around the bed-sitting room. she caught
Stephens overcoat and hat from a chair and
hung them away beside hers. Stephen, who
was back in his easy chair, watched her
affectionately.

five OF diamonds. West would win
the trick with the king Of clubs,
but no more tricks could be won
by East and West.
The correct play would be for
East to lead a spade when he wins
the club trick with the ace. The
declarer would play the seven spot.
West the nine and the dummy
would be forced to trump with the
three of hearts. Now the queen
Of clubs would be returned from

The jack of clubs should be re-
turned from dummy and trumpet

East should return a spade at
