The Story of a Wife’s Triumph Over Jealousy By ADELE GARRISON Love’s Reawakening I A Blow-Out Is Fate's Medium For Bringing the Travelers Face-to- Faco With—Philip Veritzen! 1 was raging inside at the fate which had brought about an ecn-| counter with Philip Veritzen just when I thought I had successfully| evaded him. I was worried, too, about Mary, who must be almost smothering beneath the bankets un- der which she had dived at her first sight of hij. She would not actu- ally smother of course, but she would be most uncomfortable, I tut aside thoughts of her as one of the garage men came to the side of the car and looked inquiringly at me without speaking. “I have a blow-out,” T said. “Will You attend to it, plea: “Do you just want the spare put on or shall we fix the tire that's gone?” Get Ready!” T deb: for an instant. How long would Philip Veritzen have to remain in e garage with the car, | aver the cngine of which Otto and a mechanic were bending with the so- licitude and deference due a costly Yit of mechanism? If he were sche uled to remain some time I would | simply have the spare tire put on| and stop at the next garage for the other repair. But if he were going directly out—Lillian murmured a reminder in my ear. “Mary,” che said “Just put on the spare,” I said, | and added mendaciously, “We only have a little way to go,” because of the aversion 1 know garage men have for trifling jobs. Then I hand- ed him a liberal tip with a request | 1o be as quick as possible. He sprang to his work with gratifying zlertness, and I leaned back against ihe seat, carefully keeping my eyes avert>d from the other side of the garage, where Lillian had indicated my employer was standing, Then Lillian spoke quickly in the almost inarticulate murmur to which T am accustomed. “Coming -this way. Get Look at him.” Evidently the great man realized 1hat we had secen him and that any ignoring of the fact would be ridic- ready. ulous. The next instant I heard his voice, beautifully resonant as ever— Tie has wonderful tone, diction and modulation—an actor’'s voice, @nd something more, something which sets it apart as onc of the half dozen really great voices upon the Ameri- can stage, though it has been many | years since he appeared in a role. “What wonderful good fortune. Lillian, Mrs. Graham! To think of coming on you up here in this sec-| tion!” “What's wrong with the section?” | Lillian demanded saucily. “Smallpox epidemic? We haven’t seen a thing | |from your vision. What's more, we | amiss so far.” He laughed, but there was no mirth in his voice, and I, who had | conried his moods and tenses with fair diligence during the past two vears guessed that he would have given much to have snarled a dis- courteous retort at his old friend, “Nothin is wrong with it,” he s lips smiling wth a “But it surely is s you up here in the far from home.” is mutual, old dar- id airily, and T re- joiced to sec w with a tattle laid down she could put aside the deoression which had been hers | and enter the lists with vehemence and evident enjoyment. “We h: scen you, you know for many days as we have been absent | had about given up secing you.” | 1t was a daring shot—one which I would not e ventured—thi: direct reference to Philip Veritzen' melodramatic departure from York with his correlating announce- ment that he might never back. But I have yet to see human being whom Lillian fears. Mr. Veritzen stiifened involuntar- | and for the fraction of a sccond | | his stereotyped smile left his lips. Then he bowed from the hips as| thougih he were in a drawing room. | “My dear Lillian,” he said impr sively, “you know I could not stay zny longer away from the light| | of your smile, and Mrs. Graham's.” | He favored me with another bo | Veritzen's Return ' “That, of course we coyly ac- { knowledge.” Lillian gibed. *And we're modestly glad to be the means | of bringing you back.

But Mr. Ver itzen chose to regard it as a b f poked at him. He stiffened 2gain, then smiled at her with the evident recollection that it does no | good at all to get angry at Lillian, no matter what she or does. “He can go to his barber in peace tomorrow then,” my-employer said. | “for I shall be in my office at ten.” | There was a betraying something | |in his voice which brought a quick | | conviction to me. This meeting had | | torced his hand. Ie had not intend- | | ed to return to New York upon the | morrow, but now with the illusion | | that he had been far away shattered | beyond recall, he had swiftly decided | upon an immediate return.
