The Runaway Wife
By VERNE CONNELLY

when the other paused to note the effect
of his words.
Marriage is something a girl has to
agree to-I'm only hoping / can win
her, If make up my mind to ask her.
That depends on you"
Make yourself clear, Mart. I don't
understand"
Don't you see, Vic, that before there
can be any question of marriage, I've
got to know If her character Is really
faulty? II I had only myself to con-
slider, it wouldn't make so much differ
ence, but you've pounded this heredity
bug into my head for so long that
feel I've got to be careful. I wouldn't
realish raising a little flock Of klepto-
maniacs-you can understand that"
But 1t seems to me the girl has acted
fairly-she paid you back. :"
True, but the fact remains that she
took the money in the beginning, and
so far she hasn't given me a good rea-
son for doing 1t, other than impulse.
Don't you see, the mother of my chill
dren can't be person who gives way to
such impulses"
Where do I come imp"
That should be self-evident. want
you to analyEe her character for me.
having her under observation every day
as you will, it ought to be easy. That Is
why offered her this job"
THE whole thing is distasteful to
me-" objected the doctor. Il don't
think it is fair to the girl, and If you
love her as much as you say, you
wouldn't subject her to such a thing.
You'd better drop it and take your
| chances like a man ="

Martins eyes blazed. That's o hell
of a way for you to talk after what
you've told mel You're a man of science,
yet you'd let your gentleman's code OF
honor interfere with safeguarding the
heritage Of children yet to be born"
The doctor held up a warning hand.
stop. The affair isn't mine. and II
you want to spy on your future wife
can't stop you, but don't have to aid
you"
I'm sorry, Vic, II I was abrupt.
We've been friends too long to let any
thing like this interfere. I'll give her
up, If you won't help me out-but
won't marry her unless you do help"
DR.. Junet thought the matter over
few moments, eyes bent on the paper
cutter with which he toyed Finally. he
said. "I'll tell you what think In two
or three months, Martin, If you still in
sist when the time comes"
Thanks. old man. I knew could
count on you"
After Dr. Junet met Jean, he disap-
proved even more strongly of Martins
attitude His instructive dislike for sub
jecting Jean to observation without her
knowledge of its import became magni-
fled many times. When she first stood
before him, so lovely and eager to know
all the details of this great work he
was doing in helping poor, bewildered
human beings to find themselves,
strong bond of sympathy was forged
between them. He could understand
Martins love Of the girl, but not his
hesitancy, for any reason.
In affairs of the heart, DR.. Junet
had the emotional characteristics Of
his race. He was French by birth, but
had been educated in England and
America. He was older than Martin
by five or six years, slender, dark, and
wiry-Martin's antithesis In every re-
spect. Their friendship was one Of
long standing. dating to pre-war days
in England. Now, won by Jeans charm
and beauty, he was unwilling to con-
slider the case from a scientific stand
point, as Martin demanded. His in
Stinctive repulsion to the idea before he
had ever seen Jean had now material
lied.
As for Jean, she was happier than she
had ever been. Here she not only inter-
viewed applicants for employment, but
had part in the great scheme Of the
bureau to rehabilitate human souls and
set their feet on the path of that
greatest Of all blessings, work for which
they were fitted both by physique and
temperament. And her proud visioning
Of personal achievement kept her eyes
steadfastly on the goal, her energy un-
tagging.

"The whole thing Is distasteful to
men objected the doctor.
Miss Roberts double her present salary,
knowing that any young girl would be
flattered by the honor, as well as dazzled
by the money"
That is why made the offer. I
want her to come here and work for me.
She is clever girl-you evidently
think so yourself, otherwise you wouldn't
be making an issue of her leaving"
Il do think SO. I trained her, and
developed her SO that she could hold
the position she now has in Columbus
and 1 don't feel disposed to have you
take her away from me for a personal
reason"
This was a blind thrust, which Hill
had not intended to make and he re-
gretted it the moment he uttered the
words.
Martins temper rose. you've got q
colossal nerve, Hill. to question my mo-
tives. I'm not disposed to discuss the
matter with you any further"
I'm sorry, Webster; but on the face
of it, there's no logic or business IN
your attitude"
"See here. don't propose to let you
sit in judgment on anything I see Mt to

this morning, accepting the offer. I
hope you'll be considerate enough to let
her come to us by September l."
Webster, I'm powerless to interfere"
Hill said, getting up from his chair. his
voice husky with anger, but I'm going
to warn you that shall keep Miss Rog-
ers under my personal supervision-she
is a young girl Of 10. and your offer to
her is entirely disproportionate to her
years and experience"
Martin smiled. Il have confidence in
youth, and I'm not alone in my stand.
There is an advertising agency in this
town that hasn't an employe over %;
and Chicago University has president
in his 30s. Surely, I'm not out of order
to employ an interviewer Of 19, II that
is her age; especially when she has been
trained by such competent hands as
yours
When Hill had gone, Dr. Junet turned
TO Martin. What is this all about?"
Il was going to tell you, inasmuch
as you have an important role to play
in our little drama, but intended to
wait until you had met Miss Rogers.
She is the most beautiful girl I've ever
seen, with an amazing personality.
I won't attempt to describe her; you'll
see for yourself Here is the story of
how I met her and how I found her
again. :"
Dr. Junet listened patiently to Mar
tins recital
why don't you marry her?" he asked,

L theory that a thing you won't
strive for and fight for is either
not worth the effort or you don't de-

he could help it.
