RRITAIN DAILY HERAULD, SATURDAY, AUGUST 26, 1 Women Readers = SN S News for Theater Goers an a1 -y A STORY YOU CAN BEGIN AT ANY 1IME Her Side---and His How Cora and David Temple Solved Their Marital By ZOE BECKLEY The Man With the Cigar. When David came home from his office after another one of “those da that try the soul with their emptiness Cora met him with eyes dancing. In her heart of hearts there was more than a shade of anxiety. But at a time when Cora had to supply heart and cheer for two, anxiety was the last feel- ing likely to find expression in her manner “David, dear, I've found a profitab le during the day,” she said with a good attempt at gayvety. “It occurred to me that I could do for the Workmen's Co-operative Homes company the same sort of work [ helped to do in Colony Park—helping design the woman's part of ahome. So I applied to the president of the company ana he has offered me a position with them at $35 a week. Isn't it wonderful?” Her animation died before the silence that followed and the quiver of pain that passed over David’s face. She might have known, Cora said wretchedly to herself, that David would take the matter tragically. It would have been too good to be true if he had ta the light she did. David was no more conservative t1 rage husban But he did not need to be to take the proposition of hi rking for money as an affront to his pride as a man and a husband. Most men, and most women, too, considered it a husband’s duty to support his wife so that she would not have to work for money. If any married woman, therefore, worked at gainful occupation, the umption wa s that the husband could not do the right thing by his wife. Without David saying a single word in remonstrance Cora knew every syllable of what David would have saiq if he could find it in him to speak in protest at such a time. But the look of pain, of hagegard couragement, ves, and of profound humiliation, whic h etched his face with rk lines al- most made Cora ery with sympathy for him. She realized now that she had put the proposition to him at the most cruel time possible. At a time whenhe was reproaching himself Qaily with having failed in his duty to Cora as an eflicient provider for her to broach tha project of her going to work was to turn the knife in his flesh. Cora knew she had right on her side in cvery sense. But with the pain her beloved man suffered this was no time to insist on the justice of her position, ‘Womanlike she went down on her knees by him and took his head to her bosom. “Just forget—dismiss the whole matter, dear old fellow,” she crooned. “Your old lady is going to stay home and mind her pots and kettles and cook her man’s cabbage and beef for him when he comes home.” But try as she would, Cora could not dispel David’s profound humilia- tion. She saw that the damage had been done by her very suggestion. She felt almost guilty. She should have foreseen that David would react that way, she told herself. It argucd though tlessness or even stupidity on her part, was her accusation against herself. The truth was, however, that it was her impulse of gladness at semething helpful she could do which had betrayea her. David was in no enviabbw s d the next day as he sat in his office alone. He did not know what was keex™.g him from surrendering and humbly taking the first stop-gap job that ofiered. So immersed was he in his bitter rumination that, not until a bulky form stood before him, did he realize he had a visitor. David looked up at a large red-faced man clad in bright-colored raiment of the prosperous politician tvpe, a large black cigar protruding from the corner of a tobacco stained mouth. “Mr. Temple, I'm Timothy Rourke, of Rourke & Burke, contractors. I guess you know us,” the visitor mentioned. David knew. Rourke & Burke was the name of a corporation under the guise of which the political ring Inpower at the city hall was mulcting the city of millions of dollars. He nodded. “Mr. Temple, if you are the right man for us, as we think you may be, your future is assured as our architec t.”” Rourke spoke ponderous: and leaned back to watch the struggle for composure on David’'s face.

The gown of flowered taffeta shows very smart and interesting features.

WSMEN who find it necessary to freshen the summer wardrobe at this Has Madge at Iast Made Jealous? If it had not been for the memory of Lillian’s advice ringing in my ears, I think I should have much astanished Dr. Pettit and Harry Un- derwood when they started into the eurf with me at the “desert island” where Dicky and I were giving our “picnic. The whole situation was most an- noying to me. And, besides, it was so unutterably silly! I might have Leen any foolish schoal girl of 17 with a couple of immature yvouths vying for my smiles, for any reserve oOr dignity there was in the situation, My fingers itched to astonish each of the smiking men with a sound box on the ear. Bu my flercest anger was against Dicky. If he had been properly attentive to me, Mr. Un- derwood and Dr. Pettit would have had no opportunity, indeeqd would not have dared, to pay me the idiotic com- pliments, or to offer the silly atten- tions they had given me. On the other hand, if Dicky's in- terest in his beautiful model, Grace Draper, had not amounted to an in- tatuation which made even Lillan TUnderwoad uneasy, Lillian, who knew every vagary of Dick; I would never have encouraged either man even to the slight extent that I had. But Lillian had insisted that the only way to cure Dicky’s undue interest in his model was to make him jealous of me, sa I had obediently tried to play the game as she had outlined it. But how tired I was of the gsame! I stole a glance in Dicky’s direction tc see whether he was noticing or caring about me. What I saw mad- dened me, Something to Watch, Dicky and Grace Draper were romping in the surf, like two children, splashing water over each other, and running hand in hand toward the place far aut on the sand—for it was iow tide—where they could swim. They might have been alone on the beach for anything their appear- ance showed to the contrar: yet as I gazed I saw Dicky look past the girl in my direction, with a quiclk, furtive, watching glance. As they went farther into the surf, he sent another glance over his shoulder toward me. As I caught it, guessing that in all Lis apparent interest in Grace Draper Le was vet watching me and my be- ¢ior, something seemed to snap in brain, I would watch! With a swift movement I slipped 2 little bit away from the two men by my side, and filling my hands with water, splashed it full into the face of Harry Underwood. “Dare you play blind man's buff?”’ I said gayly, sending another handful into Dr. Pettit'’s face, and then slip- ping adroitly to one side I laughed with, I fancy, as must mischief as any hovden of 16 could have put into her voice at the picture the men made Dicky I h#d no c core of their d that I had a scor of them. my te punctions on the ! omfort, for I felt ' to settle with each | The way in which each took | rudeness, however, was cl‘.ax'ac-f istic of the men. i Harry Underwood’s face grew | black for a minute, then it cleared and he laughed boisterously. i “You little devil,” he said, “T'll pay you for that.

As I swam I looked over my shoulder. The two men were follawing me, both swimming casils Dr. Pettit was in the lead, but Harry Underwood, with powerful strokes, was not far behind bhim. I concluded that Dr, Pettit had been the swifter runner, but that the other man was the better swimmer. As I saw them coming toward me, I realized that I had given them a challenge which each in his own way would probably take up. I was di mayed. I felt that I could not bear the touch of either man’s hand, In another moment my punishment had come, Dr. Pettit ov out his hand, ju caressing, protecting and d in a low tone: “Don’'t be afraid, little If vou will accord me the privilege, I will see that your friend does not get a chance of ful- filling his threat.” I knew that he intended his words for my ear alone, but he had not counted on Harry Underwood’s quick ear.
