He was ashamed. | But Nan's eyes looking directly up | into his had no such expression of con- tempt. He couldn’t quite read their expression, but they seemed all hig and luminous.

As if she didn't know that he needed her. She didn’t need him, that was it. 8She had kept him out of her life from the day of their marriage. Perhaps the rift hadn’t been quite so wide be- tween them then or perhaps he hadn't meen it because he had counted on making her care, But when he wanted her arms around his neck and her lips answer- ing his, how could he accept her pit That was why she had come back Deliberately he turned away from the wide appeal of her eyes. He was suddenly very tired. A thick smother- ing black curtain had settled down over his brain, making it difi- cult for him to think. His head ached intolerably. If only she would g “Things are settled between us,” he mid evenly; “there is nothing more to I had no right to literally force you into a marriage with me ‘when I knew vou didn't care.

That's why I was drawn back into the room tonight. It was meant that I should know. Don't you #ee what a difference it makes?” Tom had needed her, but even as this vagrant thought of him swept across her mind, she found that for the first time since her marriage it didn't hurt her to think of him.

Those sweet boy and | girl days with him were over. Now she must go forward. Muriel needed | her—and Martin did. | Her thoughts were clear and | orderly. She knew exactly what she wanted to do. Strange how clear | everything was now, when it had been confused and dark in her mind for | 50 lon | Martin's face broke into a sneer | was half a grimace of pain. And you think that is all 1 want or have wanted? You come back to me and offer me pity—now! I don’t want your pity. I want nothing from any woman who gives it as a sense of duty. But remember, I don't blame you, I only blame my- self. He had whirled about and was facing her again, and she was still looking at him out of these wide eyes. Now she came nearer to him, near enough so that through the black clouds that were swirling in his brain Martin could see her little heart shaped face, a white biur beneath his own. She put out miscles of his arm fingers touched his sleeve. “You must listen to.me, Martin you must. Just give me a chance to try and explain to you. I don't offer you pity nor even duty. Do you really think I could do that— now? I came back tenight to offer you myself. I want ours to be a real marriage.” He was staring down at her incred vously, question after question hurt- ling through his mind. But his throat felt dry and hot. He couldn't| manage more than the single ejacu- lation. “Why? “Because,” and Nan's voice was | very quiet and sure, “‘because. I have | grown up. You say that you blame yourself for marrving me, but it was | my fauit, only that I have been too self-centered to see it.

There were tears in her eves no: They glittered for a moment on her lashes and then spilled over on her | cheeks. “Tom needed me in the past, Muriel | needs me now and I want you to need me both now and in the future. Do you understand at all, Martin? Please say that you do.” Hope was leaping up in him. It smoothed the bitterness of the lines about his mouth, it looked out shyly from his eyes. At the last moment ‘when he had believed the cup of hap- piness dashed from his lips forever, she came to him offering it volunta- rily. And he loved her so, it was more than he could refuse. Perhaps he only dimly understood what she had meant to convey to him, but surely there was nothing of pit) in her attitude nmow. He longed to catch her up in his arms and shelter her there forever. He longed to ki: that soft child’s mouth and feel it x spond against his own. But this was no moment for pas- sion. There was something ‘almost consecrated about it. He took her face between his hands and kissed her forehead twice. Then she went into his arms and he held | her against him. But he did not hold her as if she were Nan, the woman he loved hetter than anything in the world; he held her tenderly, as if she had been Muriel. (Copyright. 1927.)

(2) I am 5 feet 2| inches tall, 20 years old, and 1 weigh 107 pounds. What is my correct weight? (3) Is olive oil good for the scalp and hair? (4) Should_the hair | be singed, and how often? (5) Does it | injure the hair to wind it on curlers? I have long hair and like to hav wave in it. MRS. L. M. T. Answer—(1) Dry scalps need plenty of massage to stimulate the oil glands to their proper activity. In addition, an oily scalp food may be rubbed in three times a week. A mixture of one ounce olive oil, three ounces white vaseline and 30 drops oil of lavender makes a good salve to use on your type of scalp. Before your shampoo | you should also use a hot oil treat-| ment. (2) Unless you have unusually | small bones, you are under weight Try to gain about 10 pounds. 1 think | that your hair will be in better condi- | tion if you gain weight. -(3) Yes. )] Dark hair may be singed two or three | times a year; light hair should be| clipped instead of singed. (3) The only | danger to the hair from the use of such curlers is that you may wind them too tight and too close to the scalp, &0 that a strain is put on the hair, with the result that in time it| begins to get thin.
