By Kathleen Norris - Corrmgh 194 by Mok Amercar Nrwrmgmr At b INSTALLMENT XXIX. ARGARET and Stanley went slowly along the buttercup- fringed lane toward the woods. And during that memorable and matchiess walk, and dur- ing the dreamy, unreal dinner hour, ‘when all the old people’s questions must be answeréd, there seemed to be no end to_their happy, quiet words. Later, when all the house was still, except perhaps for the pen of Cousin sm.re, who could not sleep until she had scratched off at least an outline of this extraordinary story for the benefit of her married daughter in The Dalles— later, Stan and Margaret had their old chairs, theirs at last, securely. “Now you know everything, Stan,” Margaret said, with a deep sigh of ut- ter relief. “It’s been like a bad dream, keeping it all to myself, and frightened that at any moment somebody might recognize me, or that in some way we might be :discovered. It's been like a big calamity, and I still feel utterly ex- hausted and dazed by it. But one thing is safe—my boy is mine, and about the rest I don't care. If Trowbridge is right, he’ll inherit, through me, a good deal of property. But we'll keep him sweet, Stan, and sane and simple, if we can. And besides—— “Besides,” amended Margaret, look- ing at him suddenly, with a gleam of laughter in her blue eyes, “he may not everything. We'll—we'll circumvent m, if we can! And when we tell him of his inheritance in money, we'll be sure to warn him, too, that he has an- other inheritance to fight and throw off, if he can! But I'm not afraid.” He looked at her, simple and earnest in her childish veivet gown, with the deep collar falling back from the beau- tifully rounded brown throat. And Stan thought that if it could be possible to | love her more than he had been lov- ing her, he would love her so now, when she proved: to him the single-minded tness of her hopes for her child, r indifference to his mere money in- heritance and her passionate determi- nation to save him from the taint of his father’s influence. His wife, he said to himself. And al- most immediately he said aloud, with a ‘whimsical smile: “It seems that I am making & bril- Hant match.” “I don't know,” Margaret answered. “You are marrying an ex-actress, an verness and a woman who had no sense, at 18, than to fall in love with an utterly unscrupulous, utterly intemperate, utterly heartless man, just because he knew how to order a dinner and got his clothes at Voigh # “Voight has made me clothes,” Stan- ley objected. “Ah!” the rich voice said joyfully. “But that's different. Poor Cuyler, she added, thoughtfully. “I wish I could mourn him—I wish somebody could. But I don’t believe any one, unless it's his valet, Noon, will d “Let us hope Shirley won't,” Stan {drama of suggested. “I suppose she may be in earnest about the lawsuit. It's a lot of money. “The money doesn’t matter!” Mar- garet reminded him again. “Trow- bridge thinks we can settle that out of court.” They did not revert to it. But for a wonderful time they sat murmuring to- gether, They talked of thelr marriage, and he saw her flush, and saw the swift low- ering of her thick black lashes as she agreed that there need be no waiting now. No changes at the farm, no new clothes, no plans at all, until “after- ward. “I may have to go into town for a few if Trowbridge comes West, Stan,” she reminded him. N “Yes, and then we shall have it all very quiet, shall we? At old Saint Mary's? And afterward,” sald Stan, “I shall bring you here.” “Yes,” Margaret said, “I think I should like that best.” And_she looked quietly back at the fire. But at the thought of what it would mean to him to bring her here, some day, as his wife, in her belted coat and her furs, and to have her lay them aside and move about these plain old beloved rooms quietly and at home, with the platinum band shin ‘upon her slender, nervous hand, Stanley felt a sort of ecstatic dizziness, as if the air about him rad suddenly broken into millions of stars. He told her that she was a woman of infinite surprises. From the reserved, friendly girl who had been his aunt's almost unnoticed companion to this vivid, thrilling central figure in the real s life he never tired of tracing the gradual development. They amused themselves by remembering their first antagonisms, the first be- wildered beginning of their friendship, the confused and puzzling first meet- ings, when they had so inexplicably found their hands linked and Stanley’s arms about her, and Margaret's all- finwfl!ln: responses to his unexpected isses. It seemed to both a miracle that had brought them together, that had grad- ually merged that old dislike into this absorbing and overwhelming passion. He found her no less now, he told her, and he watched her with a sort of fascination as she rose serenely to the demands of the extraordinary change in her fortunes. Stanley ‘was with her on the day when Shirley and a San Francisco law- yer called. Shirley had engaged Mr. Whitman, an old friend of her father, to protect exactly what rights she had in Cuyler Theobald’s estate. The talk took place, by appointment, and with a great air of informality and friendliness, in Margaret’s big rooms in the hotel. Stanley was forcibly im- pressed by the difference of the two women as it proceeded. Shirley was swathed in deepest mourning, her fair skin was only faintly rouged, and her mouth reddened; she looked exquisitely pretty, and it was obvious that her father’s friend, who was not more than 40, after all, was already somewhat in her tolls. Margaret wore black, too, but with her usual transparent collar and cuffs, and with Stanley’s splendid ring. She seemed very simple, and young, bare- headed and with her dark hair swept smoothly from her low forehead, beside Shirley's crepe folds and floating vells. “There is no reason why we shouldn't Just talk it all over and agree frankly and fairly—I hate fights!” Shirley said rettily, striking the note of the con: erence. is a divorce, and a marriage is a mar- riage,” she added, with a more definite note of controversy in her tone. ‘Your position, as the divorced wife—" the lawyer began heavily, to Margaret. But Margaret, who was plainly bewildered, turned her innocent interrogative gaze upon him quite simply. ‘Trowbridge wiil be here next week,” she said, “and he will know. He writes me that it isn't a question of divorce—there was no divorce.” “‘Oh, now, that's nonsense!” the law- yer assured her, smiling. And Shirley £aid eagerly, in a high triumphant tone, “I like that! Why, not only in Paris —but right here in America, two months = £ “Well, I don't see that we gain much by talking it over,” Margaret said mildly, s Shirley came to an indignant halt. ‘We can't settle anything, really. When Mr. Trowbridge——" “Yes, and it's extremely likely that he won't see me!” Shirley interrupted hotly. Her attorney shook his head, lmglu & lawyer's serenely superior smile. “You underestimate the.force of your position, Mrs. Theobald,” he assured her. Shirley was glad to be encouraged. “I think—Mr. Trowbridge—will hardly evade seeing you,” the lawyer added sig- nificantly. To this, to Shirley’s disappointment, Margaret made no satisfactory reply. $h‘e merely said, in a somewhat puzzled voice: “I don't see why he shouldn't. “You realize, Stan,” Shirley said, at- tempting to strike a spark from him, as Margaret proved so apathetic, “you Te- alize that it is an extraordinary situa- tion. Here is Cuyler’s first wife, di- vorced, and with & child he never even ln;;w Ab:‘\’xt. lm: here am Iinh“ second wife, who spent years trying to cure him, and rushed on to New York— mr{ one knows that,” Shirley pathetically, “and now it's question of my rights, you see that' “Your rights are perfectly safe, Mrs. Theobald,” her lawyer said soothingly. For Shirley’s voice had grown agitated and her color was high. “It is merely & question of having the whole thing friendly, avoiding—" went on Mr. Whitman, with a fraternal nod for Stan—*"avolding newspaper talk, eh?” “Don’t_you think.so, Stan?” Shirley asked agitatedly. “Doesn’t it seem to you best to settle it out of court?” . “My dear girl,” Stanley ascured her, “I don't know anything about it. But what Trowbridge has written Mar- garet is that her claims and her child’s claims, under the California law, are perfectly safe. She gets half the es- tate, I believe, will or no will.” “I think you may be mistaken there because of the divorce Mr. Theobald “Because, after all, a divorce | Whitman | said warningly, ith an appreciation of drawn Stanley into controversy at last. He and his client had seemed to monopolize the conversation heretofore, conceded, with “I may be” Stanley a shrug. Shirley looked at him with anger and discontent, looked shrew: at Margaret, who was serenely seated, deep in her chair, with her interested but not concerned eyes moving from face to face. “You were wonderful” Stanley as- sured her later, when the others had somewhat flatly and resentfully taken their departure, with much satisfied assertion that their confidence in their own case was unimpaired. “I suppose it's because I don’t care,” Margaret mused. “You really don’t, do you?” he asked, smiling. “Well, Stan, with you and Jimmie safe again, and all the horror of secrecy and fear gone, what could I possibly care about?” she asked quite simply. ""I]'hr money,” he suggested, delib- erately, watching her. ““The money!” She dismissed it joy- ously; her thin brown cheek was against his and his arm was about her. (Continued in Tomorrow's Star.) TRUE CHRISTMAS M0OD IS NOTED IN NEW YORK Depression, Makes “The Haves” More Thoughtful of “The Have- Nots” in Metropolis. NEW YORK (N.AN.A.)—New York generally may not realize it, but the chances are that this is really the city's best Christmas in many a year. Usually the Christmas bounty of “the haves” for “the have-nots” is rather matter-of- fact and decidedly secondary to their own celebration of the day. But this year only the most selfish imaginative can fail to give thought to the heartaches ave nots” and their wistful children. Santa Claus is not abroad on interpolated | K1ty a | the streets so numerously as usual. There is little publicity about expensive Christmas gifts. But the compassion, tenderness and feeling of obligation that go into the Chirstmas spirit at its best are more nearly universal than ever are in boom times.
