Dick sces him. leaving, Glorla lies to Dick, telling him that' Wayburn was an interfor decorator. Dick stays home ill for a few days. While | he is at work with his secretary, Miss Briggs, Gloria plans a party with Wayburn as one of the guests. When the actor arrives, Dick in- stantly recognizes him. During the evening Gloria sees Wayburn mak- ing love to Mrs., Myra Gail. Reck- lessly she drinks too much and | faints away while dancing with Dr. John Scymour, whose wife, May, is | in love with Jim Carewe, The party breaks up when Lola Hough scolds her husband, Bill, for indiscriminate “petting.” Later Maggle, disgusted; quits her job. . Next day Dick hears Gloria and Wayburn talking on the phone. He | asks Gloria about Wayburn. Gloria | sticks to her lie about the interior | decorator, That night she and Dick go down- town for dinner. While Glorla is telling Dick that she has hired | Ranghild Swanson, a mald, at §18| a week, she sees Wayburn watching | her from across the restaurant. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY Wayburn was not alone.

But she| | couldn’t, There was a lump in her| throat, and her eyes were full of| | hot, jealous tears, Oh, why did she let Stan Way- | burn make her feel this way? . . . «| Why should it make her angry and | jealous to sco him with another woman? Glory gave her plate a little push, | and laid down her fork. | “I don't believe I'm hungry after all,” she said to Dick. He looked | up in surprise. “Well, you sure are some kid!”| he exclaimed. “You drag me 'way down here and order a three-dollar meal . .. and now you can't eat| T'm sorry,” Glory sat there miserable while Dick finished his meal in" puzzied silence. “What do you want to ‘do .. .| g0 {o a movie?” he asked as he | helped her on with her coat, Glory shook her head. “Let's go home, I'm dead tired,” ghe said. Bho was, suddenly. Her | spirit drooped Iike spent. wings. She wanted to gct out 'of that| hateful restaurant ... away from the sight of Stan and his Sonya | Chotek!

The very sight of Ranghild cheer- ed rup. She was so blond and | smiling that she scemed to have brought the morning sunshine into | the kitchen with her, And she could cook! Even Dick had to admit that the cherry ple she baked for dinner was as good as any that Maggie had ever made. | “But we can't afford her” he| said to Glory. “You'll have to look | around and find someone who'll{ work foreus for about $10 a week i my limit, absolutely!” Glorla didn't answe e walked | around the table to Dick and kissed | him with little, light coaxing kisse s. | “All right, go ahead and vamp | me all you want ' Dick ban- | tered. “But 1 mean what I say all| the same. ..., We've just got to| cut down om our household expenses. | A fow weeks like this last one | would he me land me in the poorhouse! morning Glory could for Dick to leave for the rr‘”lh The moment he was out of the house, she ran upstairs anu} dressed for the street A half hour later | ing down Main street Behind their plate-glass frontd, the store windows hloomed like gar.

Glory watched her opening and shutting drawers and cupboards.

The saleswoman was right! It was Glory's hat.
