The electrically charged atmosphere in which the newly wed Sted- mans now lived grew tenser each day. 'Walt and Janet felt as though some malicious fate had waited until they were trapped into marriage before giving them the least warning that they were not suited to each other. For they felt sure that they had ‘“‘gotten on each other’s nerves.” Ag yet neither had betrayed by word or act how tightly they were holding on to themselves. Each watched the other closely for signs of all kinds. “Am I really palling on him to appear light hearted. “How can four short weeks make such difference?” Walt questioned himself miser- ably. “I seem to set her very teeth on edge.” They had told each other over and over again in the days before their marriage that if ever either of them felt things were at an end between them they would part good friends, but part they would without regard for what people would say. They were roused from this brooding by the trill of the telephone bell. ‘Walt answered it. “Is this Janet's husband, Mr. Stedman?” a brisk, gay, masculine voice came over the wire, “Yes—who is speaking?” Walt replied. “This is Roy Nicoll, a for » employer and always friend of Janet's and of yours, if yowll let me be. I'm coming around in the car in half an hour to congratulate you in person. I just heard of her marriage. And if you've mothing better to do, I'll run you both up to Travers Island for a bit and a talk. What sa; “I'll send Janet to the phone. handing Janet the receiver. Walt looked up in wonder at the gayety and relief that sprang into Janet’s voice and manner as she heard Nicoll over the phone. “Yes—yes come!” she cried delightedly. ‘“No we've nothing else to do tonjght. I want you and Walt to meet and make friends.” “It's Roy; one of the gayest, all around equipped men in the world,” she said to Walt with a touch of anxiety in her voice. “I want you two to-be good friends, Walt. You'll be nice to him, won’t you?” Half an hour later Nicoll entered. He was handsome in his motor garb, upstanding, his flesh pink with good health, his figure straight with much athletlcs, his eyves gay yet keen, personal in their gaze at Janet, vet wholesome and trust inspiring in his whole bearing. He was young for a man whose importing business was bringing him $25,000 a year. From the first day Janet came as secretary to him to the day she left him for the more enticing position as secretary to Ddvid Temple, tene- ment commissioner, Roy Nicoll had treated Janet more as a comrade than employe. He admired her spirits, her alert mind, her trimness and good looks. She found his gayety always a tonic, and never more so than now. He drove them to his athletic club for dinner, chatting, questioning, quizzing, congratulating, as glad at their presence and their union as a boy is of a holiday and a chum. Janet was buoved up at his spirits at first, so that her own cloud seemed dispelled in the sunshine of Roy Nic- olll's good fellowship Then she became aware that it was costing Walt a powerful effort to keep up his end of the spirlts of the party, and that he was not succeed- ing very well. From that moment her own cheerful mood collapsed as a toy balloon at the prick of a pin. When Nicoll finally left them at their door they said nothing to each other as they entered their home. And thank you for myself,” Walt said, fenu for Tomorrow | Breakfast Fruit Scrambled Brains Saratogo Potatoes Raised Biscuits Coffee Lmnch ked Macaroni and Ton Stewed Fruit ke Dinner Thick Beef Soup Mutton Cutlets Tomato Sauce Rice Croquettes Cold Slaw Date Pudding Coffee 1ato Cocoa mato Sauce—Turn a can of to- pes Into a saucepan add leaf, two cloves, half of , a sp nful of and gh sieve.

The reasan for emotion I well knew. Upon her head and upon mine reposed two ‘‘creations” of the milliner’s art, which were as alike as the traditional peas in a pod. Knowing the wealth and the repu- ion for fastidiousness in dress vhich Mrs. Smith possessed, I knew the hat she wore must be the aris original from which the clever milliner to whom Lill had intro- duced me had made hat was n.yself wearing, But her tone and insolent to be borne coolly, and said with hauteur: “May T inquire of you, Mrs. Smith, what concern it is of yours ' Perhaps you have seen the effect vpon an angry hen of having a basin of cold water thrown over her.

Mrs, Smith Retorts. I could see the reflection of another thought in her mind. sight of the duplicate hat had evi- | cently so angered her that she had forgotten her usual poise. I knew that she almost would have given her | right hand if she had not forgotten her dignity so far as to speak of the still Thé But, even though I disliked her cor- dially, I could not help but admire the quickness with which she dis- missed the incident. Without turning her head, or in any way noticing the amused and interested faces of the club women around her, who had witnessed the little contretemps, she said, carclessly: “Of course, your re- !uctance to give the name of your milliner, and I trust yau will overlook iy rather natural surprise and in- nation at finding that the expensive riodel which I had supposed to be mine had been put into the hands of department store copy A She turned away with a little shrug the shoulders and went back to leaving me to follow as of the rostrum, Test I might. The insolence of her tone and words was so pointed that I was sorely tempted to walk out of the club rooms, never to return. But tne quick glimpse that I got of the faces of the clubwomen who had seen the incident showed clearly their resent- ment of her insolent conduct toward me. Besides, I reflected that in reality 1t was not Mrs. Smith who had en- gaged me to lead the history section of the study club, but these other women, whose flashing eves and Feightened color showed how much they sympathized with my embarrass- | rent.
