SYNOPSIS Mary Faith, comely young orphan, is secretary to Mark Nesbit, wealthy business man. She gives up her position to marry Kimberley Farrell, shiftless young lawyer. Mary Faith believes that loving a man hard enough will make everything come out all right in the end. It was this confidence that enabled her to marry Kim after he had once broken their engagement. She realizes he has an eye for every girl, but hopes that married life will sober him and make him successful in his profession. Instead, Kim is annoyed at Mary Faith’s “Puritanism ’ and his jazzy friends, Claire and Jack Maldon, find her a dull companion. Learning that she is to become a mother, Mary Faith, for the first time, visits Kim’s office. Kim is furious when Mary ! Faith finds him flirting with his blond secretary. That night he informs his mother and Mary Faith that he is leaving. Mary Faith, heartbroken at this turn of affairs, decides not to tell Kim of her coming motherhood. She and Mrs. Farrell decide to struggle to keep the home for the coming baby. Mary Faith obtains a position as typist. She refuses to accede to Kim’s request for a divorce and asks him to wait siz months before carrying out his deaire. As the bells arc ringing in the New Year, Mary Faith’s son is born. Kim, informed of this event, returns home and becomes, for a time, a proud and happy father. Kim is restored to his old position which he had lost due to money irregularities. CHAPTER XXVIII There had been a great deal of discussion about the baby’s name. Mary Faith and Mrs. Farrell wanted him named Kimberley, of Course. Every boy ought to have his father’s name, they maintained. But Kim was for something plain and short and solid, like John or Bill. “There ought to be a law against banging names like Kimberley and Livingston and Percival on boys,” he had told them. “When 1 was a kid I used to have to tight in the schoolyard about once a week with somebody or other who’d make fun of my name.” Mary Faith took the cup out of its white pasteboard box as soon as Claire had gone. It was made of hammered silver and it had two little round handles. On one side of it was engraved: “For little Kim from hrs Aunt Claire.” “1 wonder where his Uncle Jack comes in,” Mrs. Farrell said dryly, as she looked at it. “I suppose he just pays the bill, eh?” That night at dinner she told Kim about the cup. “Your friend, Mrs. Maldon, brought the baby a present today,” she said, making a face as if the beef broth she was drinking was very bitter. “She brought him a cup—snd he not able to hold his own bottle yeti Why didn’t she bring him a carriage cover or something Useful. I'd like to know . , , My, but 1 do dislike that woman I” “1 saw a cup the other day that 7d have liked to buy for the baby, myself,” said Kim. “It had two handles, to make it easy to hold, and the silver that it was made of was hammered so that it wouldn’t show any dents even if the baby did throw it on the floor. . . . Babies do throw everything on the floor, don’t they, when they're peeved?” Neither Mary Faith nor his mother answered him. They were staring at each other across the table. Kim looked from one to the other of them. “What’s the matter with you two?" he asked. Mary Faith got up and opened the top drawer of the sideboard. From it she took the white box. She set it down b.fore him on the table and opened it. Within it was the little two-handled cup of hammered silver. She lifted it out without saying a word and set it on the tablecloth. He began to laugh. “Well. I'll be ioggoned," he said. "You’ve got me with the goods this time, haven't you?—Let »e tell you both whgt

happened; I was walking down Spring Street the other day and whom should I run into but Claire. She was on her way to the Pig’n’ Whistle to get a bite of lunch and so was I. So we went there together, and afterward we were looking into Armbruster’s window and we saw this little cup. She must have gone in after I left her and bought it.” He picked it up and put it back into the box. “I suppose I ought to have said something about it,” his voice ran on, “but I forgot all about it After all it wasn’t anything to remember, was it?—Having lunch with the wife of one of your friends? We thought Jack might join us there. He eats lunch there himself almost everv day.” He raised his eyes and looked across the table at Mary Faith. “You aren't sore, are you?” “Why, of course not, Kim. Why would I be angry?—You have a perfect right to have lunch with Claire if you want to.” And then they began to talk about something else and the matter of the cup was forgotten, But the next morning Mrs. Farrell brought it up again while she watched Mary Faith washing out the baby's little flannels in the bathroom bowl. “1 wouldn't trust that Mrs. Maldon any farther than 1 could throw an elephant by the tail,” she remarked from her seat on the rim of the bathtub. “I wouldn’t be surprised to find out that she had asked Kimberley to take her to lunth. You take a woman like that, who has a lot of time on her hands, and nine times out of ten she’s just the kind that goes around having love affairs with her husband's friends or with any other good-looking man that she takes a fancy to.” Mary Faith shook her dark glossy head as she wrung the baby’s little nightgowns out of the fluffy soap : suds. “I’m not worrying about Claire Maldon. Mother Farrell,”, she an--1 swered, “or about any other woman ; these days. Why Kim’s home before ' six almost every night and he's as i settled and as sober as a judge lately. I don’t believe he has anything : but business on his mind.” On the first of April the firm gave I him a salary rahre of lea dollars a : WAtk.
“Seventy smackers now for you two to throw around every week of your lives!” he told his mother and Mary Faith when he came home with the news. "That ought to buy the baby shoes every now and then, eh what?” He twinkled with satisfaction and pride. “Or some new clothes for me and Mary Faith,” said his mother. "We're like a couple of scarecrows.” “ Yes. but we hardly ever go out—and when we do we go in the car 1 and nobody sees us. It’s Kim who '< needs new clothes right now. His spring overcoat is faded and worn around the cuffs and pockets—and appearance is everything to a man. He must look successful or he never gets anywhere Jn his work,” Mary Faith put in. "So 1 think Kim ought to get himself a new overcoat before the rest •: us even think of new clothes." But the next week Mrs. Farrell went downtown on a shopping trip and came home with a new hat of 1 king’s blue felt that brought out all the hollows and shadows of her face. | "I took five dollars out of the I housekeeping money and bought myself this hat," she confessed to Mary Faith when she came home. “I had to go up to see Dr. Thatcher and I hated to go in that gray hat of mine. I’ve worn that hat every time I’ve gone up there for the last three years.” She went downtown once every three or four weeks, and Mary Faith had noticed that when she came home she always spoke of having seen Dr Thatcher. And yet, so far j as she knew he never sent her a bill Moreover she had no illness that she ever rjjoke of. Don't you think it’s high time > that Dr Thatcher sent us a bill, Mother Farrell' she asked now. "The baby i' almost four months old Next time you go down to his office perhap’ you ought to say ■ something to him about it" i Her mother-in-law shook her hear! in its gay new hat. “No. He’ll send it when he gets . ready to.” she replied "He's an old i friend of ours as well as our doctor. I : Mary Faith. And sometimes he i doesn’t send us a btll for a whole . year We must owe him money for [ years back. Every now and again I send him a little on account.!' a (To Be Continued) I Copyright, 1931, by Beatrice Burton Distributed by Fe*Ji(roo Syndic a to, Inc.
