JACK went to sleep imme- diately, but I lay awa! nearly all night planning, wondering if Jack were going to lose bis nerve. If he were, I could see nothing but trouble and worry ahead. We could not possibly live and keep up our home on his salary—not as we had been living—and I had no slightest intention of making any radical change. At breakfast Jack’a hands shook so that he epilled his coffee. I said nothing, but rising from the table I poured out @ little whisey and gave it to him, “You shouldn’t have taken that drink last night,” I told him, “You are not accustomed to it, and it made you more nervous. Perhaps this will help you to calm yourself. But don’t do it again. Drowning your troubles is the coward's way.” “IT am a coward, Sue. I have been one for years!" he returned, draining the glass. “A coward at first, be- cause I couldn't bear to seo you un- happy, when you wanted things my salary was not sufficient to procure, and #0 took other ways of getting them for you, Then a coward, be- cause not knowing about—father—I did not have strength of mind enough to let gambling alone, Yes, I have been cowardly—always.” ‘ “For heaven's sake, get such non- wense out of your mind! You have enough to do to think of your own affairs this morning, without worry- ing about what has been past for years!" I scolded; nevertheless feel- ing a cold chill go over me when he mentioned his father. “You're right; I have enough to think of,” he repeated, wearily, as he rose from the table. Then ‘You un- derstand, don’t you, Sue, that we haven't a cent in the world besides my salary, and that is practically mortga: for some tl to pay that 1. 0. U. I had to give.” “You sald last night that that could wait.” ‘So it can. But it has to be paid ome time.’ “‘Bome time’ fe a long way off! Now, Jack Coolidge, pull yourself together. You aren't half as badly off as you imagi: “If only we hadn't mortgaged the nothing!” I returned. “Prob- ably most of the houses down hero are mortgaged. No one need know it, and you can soon pay It off if you do as I aay.’ “But you don't understand, Sue!” he almest groaned, as he ‘left with- out kissing the children goodby, the first time he had ever forgotten them.

But even so, after hav- ing a@ good cry (crying because Jack had been so stupid as to loge—not be- cause of him or his feelings), I spent the rest of the day wandering aroun: have Jack come home. I was at the window when he came up the walk and noted with delight that he walked erect and was hurry- ing. In the morning he had slouched and moved slowly, “Well?} I asked pleasantly es I opened the door for him. “You were right, Sue; it may mot be quite as bad as I tho ught don't ask questions! I'm in no mood to be quizzed. And let's go over to the cluh, to-night. I want a little ex- eltement,.” Delighted to see him feeling 90 much better, I gladly assented, soon as dinner was over we went to the club.

But instead of what I had heard frightening me, and making me try to stop Jack gambling, it only made me angry at Harry. Why should he, who had everything he wanted, med- dle with us?
