For when one prays, from the

Stella was used to these

Beauty is more likely to

quality of her beauty made it

what it would get her. That

CAN'T POSTPONE DATE

Suddenly all the expected
and eagerly awaited triumphs
of the evening ahead went
dead in her heart. She pro-
foundly wished there was some
way to get out of the whole

now.
With a sigh. she continued
with her dressing. She won

thing from life in these years
that they had been apart.
What would he be like now?
In the old days he had worn
her beauty like a jewel, he was
so proud of her. so anxious for
others to see and admire his
wife.
That was why he had OBJ
iected to her continuing her
theatrical career; he was so
possessive and jealous that he
resented peoples being able TO
buy a ticket and go into a the
alter and admire her. She
must shine for him, as his
wife.
Stella had never been able
to love anybody else as she
had loved Jim. True, she was
half promised to John Van
Every, but she had put off the
date and forbade any an
nesnoement. 1t wasn't fair to
John until she felt sure in her
heart that she no longer loved
Jim.
John wasn't Jim. He had
none of the thrill and excite
ment that Jim carried with
him wherever he went. No
nudges. no whispers, no eager
craning of necks, no column

John took a girl out. as when
Jim did.
