An idea came to her suddenly,
bright and Furnished. She picked
up the instrument. "Yes?" Her
voice changed abruptly. "Oh"
She shot a furtive glance at her
husband. "Oh, no." she said
guiltily, Il couldn't. Really. l

John. No." she repeated in
muffled voice. you mustn't call
me any more. No. Good-by."
She hung up and stood motion
less, She heard Johns chair scrape
as he pushed it back, heard his
voice: Who was that?"
She turned and stared at him,
defiant.
He stared back. "All right, don't
tell me! l k,a0W."
Nov, john" Stephanie said,
don't get excited"
''Excited?" yelled her husband.
Who's excited?" He hurled his
napkin to the floor. I'm kill him.
that's all! I'll break his philander-

STEPHANIE could barely restrain
her laughter. John, dear -"
He took two long strides toward
her. His hands were on her shoul-
ders. iron-hard. deliciously hurtful.
You're mine. see? You belong
to me! And don't you forget it,"
He kissed her. Unexpectedly.
Passionately. 1t was wonderful;

she felt like candle melting. One
of the bows fell out of her hair.
Marriage, she thought deliriously;
marriage. the greenhouse of love.
He kissed her for a long time.
"Oh. John." she murmured at
last. Darling. you'll miss your
train!"
f1E GLANCED wildly at his watch,
snatched his hat. crammed it on
his head. Lipstick was all over his
chin; he had never looked so
handsome. The front door opened.
Remember what said!" The
door closed.
Stephanie tottered over to the
telephone and sat down. She would
have to call Caroline back, ex-
plain her apparently idiotic be-
havior. Men, she thought indul-
gently, so simple, so dear. Little
boys, all of them. You had to
know how to handle them, that
was all. She picked up the phone.
The front door opened sud-
denly; her husbands head ap-
peared. Forgot to tell you: like
that green thing you're wearing"
His gaze shifted to the telephone
in her hand; his eyes were sud-
denly full of little dancing points
of laughter. And say - if you're
calling Caroline back, tell her
hello for me, will you?"
He grinned at her, a fiendish,
husbandly grin And gently closed

H-Even SO every good tree
bringeth forth good fruit: but a
corrupt tree bringeth forth evil
fruit
ia good tree cannot bring

down. and cast into the fire.
2O-Wherefore by their fruits
We shall know them.
2l-Not every one that saith

Father which is in heaven.
22-Many Will say to me in
that day, Lord, Lord, have we
not prophesied in thy name? and
IN thy name have cast out devils?
and in thy name done many
wonderful works?
23-And then will ! profess
