She won- ders if she can relinguish love for duty. Chapter 27 The Choice “[F the cases were reversed how long would Bob stick to me?” Sue inquired of herself. “Why; when Cecily was here there were times when he seemed actually to reproach me for the inconvenience she caused him! He’d deceived. me about her, he’d fallen in love, married, parted from a wife... and it was so unimportant to him that he’d never told me! “I played fair! I warned him before we were married that~I might meet the right man, fall in Jove with him... and Bob laughed! Well, let him laugh now! He’ll be hurt,” she mused more seriously. “He'll be badly upset for days—for weeks. But he'll find consolation in the sym- pathy of the town. Even if he lets me divorce him, it will come out lJater that I’ve married Eric and everyone will know I treated Bob badly. Allen will try his best to make it up to Bob. Barbara will. Maybe Barbara and Bob . stranger things have happened She sighed heavily. “If he’d only _suspect—quarrel with me about Eric! If we could bring the subject out in the open, discuss it, even angrily. But Bob’s like a trustful child. It has never occurred to him that his wife— his wife!—could be other than faithful with him, anything else but entirely happy! The uncon- scious egotism of it, the appealing confidence! I’m torn between the two. But there’s Eric to think of, as well as Bob. Eric!” And at that beloved name, her senses swam. Firelighted room, Allen, Barbara, Bob — all were swept away as she imagined her- self once again held close in Eric’s arms, listening ‘to the pounding of a heart which beat for her alone. How she knew that to be true, she could not have told, but know it she did. Eric's covering of so- Phistication hid something shy and sweet and hitherto un- touched. It was deep calling to deep, between her and Eric Far- raday. It was the traveler in a strange land experiencing the shuddering delight of hearing his own tongue spoken after weary days of dismay, bewilderment. It was discord resolved into har- mony, it was voyage-worn ships making harbor at the close of a Jong season, it was cool water in the desert, flame in the snow, the deliciousness of food after famine. It might not last, it could not last—for Eric; but even to expe- rience it briefly was an enchant- ment she had no right to deny herself or Eric. She, little Sue Davenport, with her odd dark face and her unim- portant mind, was a worker of miracles. Out of all the women whom Eric had met—and they had been many, and clever, and beautiful—she had been chosen to turn the key which let love into his being. Oh, marvelous, oh, wonderful! What, in comparison to this, was the keeping up of that “satisfying relationship” of which Bob had spoken? Nothing! Less than nothing! Tomorrow—or at least the day after Christmas—she would tell Bob so; explain quite kindly and firmly that duty, after all, was not only a personal matter, but a relative matter; that her duty to Eric’s genius far outweighed any. thing she might once have prom-| ised Bob Trenton, of the Treadon | Shoes. | Sue put the screen in front of the fire, snapped off the one lamp she had kept burning, paused by the window for a last look at the river, lighted only by the stars tonight, and took her way up to bed. Bob was fathoms deep in sleep among his own pillows. ‘Only You’ HRISTMAS EVE found Sue| with her plans made. She and Bob would celebrate the holiday as usual, with Pats and Allen coming for dinner the night be- fore and remaining until late Christmas afternoon. And when they had gone, and Bob and Sue were alone, she meant to talk to him quietly, calmly about a di- vorce. She had not reached her de- cision without many heartaches. It was as if two personalities strove within her: the tender, loyal girl who had married her husband, honestly confessing that the sort of love she had for him was not the sort she had dreamed of surrendering as a bride; and the new, suey ruthless woman, made ruthless by her devouring Passion for Eric Farraday. _ Eric's letters arrived daily, spur- ting her to immediate action, steadying her oft-times wavering plans. She shopped as. usual for Chrismas gifts: a luxurious eve- ning coat for Pats, who had hinted strongly for it; books and silk socks for Allen; for Bob — she had hesitated over this, disliking the impersonality of such a pres- ent yet disliking stil more to choose anything more intimate— a carved jade paperweight for his office. She had never to ask Bob for 8 Birthdays ese e Bess Streeter Aldrich of Nebr., novelist, born at Cedar Falls, Ia., 59 years ago.

Two of the guest rooms had been prepared for Allen and his wife. The servants had been remem- | bered, the fees for postman, milk- man and various others were néatly sealed in their tiny en- velopes.

The door was slightly ajar and from within came the murmur of voices: “Pats must have come early!” she thought, and -with a light hand swung the door gently open. The tableau which met her eye froze her where she stood. Bob was seated in a corner of the couch, his elbows on his knees, his face in his hands. Before him Patsy knelt, her half bare arms pulling his face down to hers. “Poor, poor boy,” she was crooning. “My poor darling Bob!” From those spread, desperate fingers came a broken murmur. “Pats, Pats! There’s only you...” Violent Love Affair NOISELESSLY Sue withdrew; gained. her bedroom without the absorbed pair at the other end of the room knowing of her presence. Her face was flaming, her palms were icy. So! While she had been wrest- ling with her conscience over the coming separation with Bob, he had been indulging in a violent love affair with—this was what hurt, this was what stung her pride!—with Patsy, of all people! Pats, whom 3ob had called “cheap,” against whose greediness he had warned Sue, at whose un- kindness to Allen he had railed. And now, in Sue’s own sitting room, dressed in the very gown Sue had bought for her, this scene was being enacted! As always when in the grip of emotion, she walked to the win- dow and stared out. She stood there a long time, not hearing Allen’s arrival, not even knowing when Patsy and Bob went down- stairs. Suddenly she threw back her head with the gesture of one freeing himself of a heavy bur- den. “This certainly simplifies things! I was a fool to let it upset me. Why, it makes everything perfect! Bob will give me a di- vorce, and console himself with Pats. Allen, dear Allen, will be free of her at last! Oh, it couldn’t be better!” “Sue!” It was Bob shouting be- low. “We're all waiting for you. Coming down soon?” “In five minutes,” she returned composedly. When she joined them around the fire below, she fairly sparkled. She had run a wet comb through her curls and they framed her face charmingly. Her lips were crimson, her cheeks bore traces of unusual color. Her eyes shone as they had not done in years. “Golly, Sue, what have you done to yourself?” Allen asked admiringly. She answered gayly, stole a glance toward Bob. He seemed as usual save for a certain look of strain about his eyes. Perhaps he, too, had been fighting a battle with conscience, she thought a little pityingly. How absurd that she couldn’t put an end to the sit- uation now, in a few forthright words, “You love Pats, Bob, and Allen will.be glad to be rid of-her. As for me, I’m counting the days, the hours, until I can marry Eric Farraday.
