good night, dear"
And Elaine had married Jay Barry.
Rough, husky, staggering Jay Barry;
feet of pure adventurer. Two days
after the wedding she found herself,
dressed in the blue shirt and dun
garees Of a seaman. on board a rat
infested tramp steamer bound for
China with a mysterious cargo. Jay
had come upon her as she stood by
the rail watching the Statue of Lib
erty grow small and indistinct. He
laid his big hand on her shoulder
gently.
"How'rya TOUCHING it, princess?"
he beamed down on her.
Playfully, Elaine ruffled his un-
eombed hair into further disorder.
"Iike IA men on a dead mans chest"
she sang out, raucously.
"That-a-girl, princess" Then he
was off to roar orders at the Sink
ing collies.
Immediately she began to thrill to
her new-found sense of freedom. Now
she was a part of life, wading in it
and being swept along by it. The
boring and stupid round of saciA
activities of her set was at an end
and soon forgotten.
CAMILLE was born on river

rebel war lords. Both Camille and
Elaine survived that. Successfully
they also survived Mukden, Fuchow
and Shanghai. Jay carried 100000 in
his belt at Ataturk. In Paris they
were fiat. Another long journey, then
bloody street fighting. Weeks of hid
ing in anxious waiting. Then Camille
and Jay uproariously wrecking an
apartment in Sorrento. Discipline
meant less than nothing to both of
them More wild rides across bay
ionet-studded borders. An airplane
crash in Algiers. While through it
all Jay loved her and Camille ten
'derly, madly and passionately in turn.
Practically every moment with him
had been breathless. The other mo-
ments were loaded with anxiety,
doubt, sometimes hopeless despair.
Miraculously all three were safely
IN New York in her fathers pala-
tial home on the Hudson River. For
weeks Elaine could hardly believe it.
No more of Jay going about bristling
with guns or swords: no more gun
shots with her breakfast, and last.
but far from being least, there was
faithful Jerry Gould, still unmarried,
offering her himself and permanence
and position and a future for her
daughter. Camille must be put in
school now and taught some of the
graces instead of how to clean a
machine gun.
Jerry Gould stil1 loved her, there
was comfort in knowing that. And
Jay still loved her. too, but that was
no longer comforting. Oh, she knew
well enough what a lot of people were
saying behind her back about her
seeing Jerry so much alone. The next
step was to start dragging her name
in the mud. Two or three times Jay
had come upon her and Jerry in

tied to something solid. And it was
now or never, Because Jay was al
ready lining himself up with an.
other revolution in South America.
Well, she thought with heavy sigh,
tomorrow he would be free to 60. If
only he wouldn't carry to much hate
for her in his heart.
She paused in her dressing be-
fore the mirror to listen to his voice
coming from the next room. He was
telling Camille another story, but she
hadn't heard the first part.
And what did your mother do
but bong the bear over the head
with a pail of blueberries. Yes, sir,
killed him deader than a kippered
herring" he finished, coming into
her room, struggling with the ends
of his hat-wing collar.

"Why didn't you tell me that story?"
She stared at Elaine in starry-eyed
admiration.
"Oh. just forgot it. guess. Hurry,
Jay, and get dressed"
Jay chuckled. Yeah. Killing q
bear is nothing to your mother"

turvy mind match her outward calm

her heart.

He wanted her to go soft like the softie,

Elaine steadied herself against the
dressing table. Her face suddenly
drained sickly, realizing that Jay, the
man she loved more than life itself,
held all her hopes Of future happi-

struck first, in love or war, riding
roughshod over all obstacles. She had

The Mark Stays

Gossip is like mud thrown
against clean wall; it may not
stick but it leaves a mark.
Smile, smile, smile if you like,
but don't pound people over the
head in your enthusiasm to make
them do it.
The life you lead writes its stsry
on your face, but only the clever
can read it.
There are people who think they
are observant, who can't tell you
offhand what are the pictures on a
one-dollar bill or five-dollar bill.
Ability TO Profit
There is sometimes much abil-
ity in knowing how to profit by
good advice.
Silence is the wisest argument
of the ignorant man and the wise
man can frequently use it to ad-
vantage.
A girls no-hope chest is one
that begins to accumulate inter-
est-bearing bonds.
Destroying Accomplishments
Can't you see a splendid tree
without thinking of the thrill of
cutting it down? Apparently some
can't and the anticipation over
comes them.
Be natural, borrowed garments
seldom fit well.
Loneliness is a misery that f.
nally wears itself out. One can
grow to prefer solitude.
A boy changes his voice at the
age of fifteen or sixteen, and he
changes all his notions, too.
