Lilllan is greatly concerned about you, She is afraid you are—you are''—— T paused, flushing, for it was hard to put Lillian’s fear into words. Mr, Underwood smiled at me, “Don’t be afraid to christen the | ‘spade’ properly,” he said. “'She 1s afraid T am a bold, bad bootlegger. Is that it?"” “She 1s much worried for fear you may be mixed up In something of did!" he 1 know that old Lil's you re "Oh! emulate | But | “r | OF A WIFE Sl ] the kind," I admitted, He leaned forward, his brilliant black eyes holding mine in a steady gaze, “And what do you think about it?" he queried, “1 don't know, COUrse APPeAranc 'm Free of Apron S “Are all agalnst me,” he the sentence crisply, “Well, suppos- ing the worst, may 1 ask what par. ticular reaction you have to the knowledge?

Lilllans' problem, either, although I certainly do the old girl's solicitude, can tell her so.

As Jack threw the letier down in my lap he sald: “This is a nice thing fo: a husband to get after three years of unbound- ed confidence in his wife.," I immediately forgot to bs hurt in my sudden, overpowering rage. Be- fore I héd even read the leiter I said: “Does that mean, Jack, that you have lost confidence in me?"” “Read the letter, Leslie, You will see that it would be almost impossi- ble for any man not to lose confi- dence in his wife when he finds out that she has been keeping frown him the fact that a Jormer sweetheart of hers gave her a two hundred thousand dollar wedding piesent, Why, the whole thing is like a De- under the circumstances you would not understand exactly my position in the matter.” “lI don't know your position, Les- le.” “'All right, I'll tell you." Then, little Marquise, I menced at the beginning and Jack the whole story. that at first 1 was perfectly cent and accepted the pearls as a gift of beads from my sister Alice, who in a foolishly romantic com- pact with Karl Whitney, had glven me the jewals. I told him how Karl had been all his life collecting them for me, and that I did not know they were anything but a string of beads until that night at the res- taurant when they were broken and 1 took them to be restrung. “I should have told you all about it then,” I said to him, "but you will remember that that was the time you needed six thousand dollars and asked me to go and get it from my father.
