(! all Shipping Points ceiving John ana she loathed hersel Daily in the United States ifor'so doing. John knew that she was going to spend the day at the Country Club, lunching and golfing with Leita Gra- ham. Between them, without ac- tually lying, Leila and Merriam had given him the impression that it was 110 be a party of women. John {hadn't the remotest idea that the GOODS PURCHASED NOW WILL BE RESERVED AND DELIVERED WHEN WANTED BEFORE THE HOLIDAYS others of the foursome were to be Leila’s husband, Putnam, and John's employer, Richard Slocum. Merriam tried to justify herself as ’ulle scurried about her wee house in a mad flurry of dishwashing and bedmaking. Richard’s whispered words to her the evening before, when he told her that he wanted to talk to her about her father's af- fairs, had made her half sick with dread. She knew that it was always jawkward for Richard to talk over anything that concerned her father in John's presence. John was super- sensitive about his father-in-iaw’s wealth. He was 80 afraid that peo- ple would accuse him of marrying Merriam for her money that, before their wedding he had practically forced her to promise that she would not take a penny from her father. A noble sentiment on his part, Merriam had thought. In the first months of their marriage, when just to be together was a great adven- ture, proverty had seemed an amus- ing game—almost a virtue! “Economy,” quoth John, with an alr of being an authority, merely going without something you want o a little now for something you are z going to want much more later on.” “Economy,” thought Merriam dole- {fully, after months of uggling with John's small income, “is merely going without everything you want now until you get 8o low-minded that you feel as though you were never going to have anything you wanted.” But she wasn't so tactless as to tell John what she thought. And always, in the back of her mind. like a buried treasure, had persisted the pleasant thought that when her father came home from his travels it would be_very easy to coax him to convince John that it was not fair to her to force her to go without some of the luxuries that seemed to her absolute necessities. Her father's departure orient had been as abrupt as her wedding; so enthralled had she been in her honeymoon, she had kissed him good-bye without a pang. He had sent her occasional letters, some charming gifts and, through his law- yer, had come a check for her birth- | day. So that, although the lawyer and Richard were apprehensive because they had not heard from her father for several weeks, Merriam could not feel that anything serious had happened. And yet—she was much perturbed. In_spite of her household she was ready long before her host ess arrived. A rather subdued little person, she sat on the top step of her tiny suburban porch, her golf bag beside her. Her bronze curls | were tucked into a shabby velvet tam. She looKed ruefully at the once smart velvet jacket. She wrin kled her retrousse nose in fastidious disgust at_her amateur pressing of her gay plaid skirt. She had pol ¥ 3 § ished her stubby-toed oxfords the best she could, but she knew exactl; how dowdy she was going to fee when Leila Graham appeared. For Leila always wore the spiffiest kind of golf duds. The vouthful Mrs. Graham was un- mistakably in & bad humor when her shining limousine stopped at Mer- riam’s.

Fundamentally a decent sort of man, he found himself in a erpetual character test. He had Konuuy tried to change his love for Merriam into a big-brother friendli- ness.
