SYNOPSIS Stanley Paige, beautiful, young society girl, is left penniless when her lawyer speculates with her money and loses. Stanley, however, cares little for the money, feeling that she has everything in the loie of fascinating Drew Armitage. But when Drew breaks their engagement saying it would be impossible to marry on his income, she is heartbroken. Rather than accept aid from her wealthy friends, Stanley rentu an inexpensive furnished room and disappears front her exclusive circle U try and make her own way. Her friends agree that a better way would have been to marry handsome Perry Devcrest, but Stanley cannot forget Drew. Then, one day, she meets John Harmon Northrup, struggling young author. A strong friendship ensues and they become very necessary to one another. John Harmon is in love with Stanley but refrains from telling her because of Drew. As time passes his kindness and consideration win Stanley’s affection and they are married. Knowing that she does not love him as she does Drew, he says to her. “That you can give me anything at all, however little, is more happiness than I ever expected to know.” They eelebrate at | their favorite restaurant. CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT “It’s going to be fun living with
you, Stanley. What shall dessert be, Mrs. Northrup—-Ke cream or Grujere cheese?” “Neither,” Stanley decided at •nee. “Let's have waffles and those little pots of honey and some more coffee. Do you think I’ll ever learn to make coffee as good as this, John Harmon? I’ve an idea it’s a very important part of a successful marriage.” “Everything about marriage is , important, I guess.” He looked deep into her eyes, his own intently com- i polling. “It’s about the most im- ] portant thing in the world, I ex- ( pect.” . I "I know. And we’re just begin- j
ning—and so much can happen to Bpoil everything.” “Listen, Stanley.” John Harmon eantinued to hoid her eyes with the in'wuity of his own brown ones. sot spoil — anything. Let's promise *• atop before that happens. Do yew see what I mean? AVe'.e got something for each other, something big and——wonderful. It s companionship, understanding, tenderness, a sweet need of each other. If the time ever comes when we can no longer give these things, let’s not try to make any second-best sort of relationship do. Let’s not spoil what we’ve had by giving anything less. Let's just not give anything at all—but go quickly before we destroy what we’ve already had.” Stanley met his eyes gravely in the wavering candlelight. She wished suddenly that she might make him understand in that little moment how clearly he had shown her that he understood. But there was no way except to answer: “I think I know what you mean, John Harmon. You’re trying to tell me
that if the time ever conies when I’m not completely happy with you and want something else more—l am free to go.” I , “Yes, that’s it. Free to go, owing j me nothing.” “And you, John Harmon?” “It applies to me too, Stanley.” “But you will never go,” said Stanley softly. ' “No, I shall never go,” repeated John Harmon quietly. Then a waitress in a quaint pea--1 aamt costume brought them crisply golden waffles and delicious honey in little stone pots and they became gay «nd laughed and said silly little inconsequential things ■ I t

to each other, and only in the back of John Harmon’s eyes and in the wistful little twist to Stanley’s smile did the seriousness remain. They went out soon after that and walked through the deserted square and two blocks north to John Harmon’s house. He had left a fire burning slowly in the grate, and in its mercifully concealing glow the old room lay serene and touched with a sert of beauty; warm shadows danced faintly on the shabby walls, pewter candlesticks shone softly against the black mantel, a gentle light picked out the faded colors of the
1 old rugs, fell tenderly on the dull maple desk, the rubbed cherry of the drop-leaf table. At the high windows the gay chintz lost something of its defiance, blended gently 1 into the warm shadows; before the hearth stood their chief extravagance, a wing chair, deeply inviting. Stanley stopped just inside the door, flung out her hands in a little embracing gesture. “It's a lovely room, John Harmon!” “It’s a lovely person who’s come to live in it.” He stood just behind her and now his arms went about her, held her fast. But he did not
kiss her. Not then nor in the hours that followed. In that moment John Hannon denied passion to his marriage. What it cost him even he i did not know. What he did know ■ was that the sort of love she had : felt for that other man he felt for ■ her. But he had promised himself i that she should never know it; that ! he would give her only what she I could give him in return. And just i how little that was, compared with : what he could give her, he_ knew
only too well. So now he did not kiss her, be- ; cause any kiss he could have given her then would have betrayed him 1 utterly. He only held her for a brief, exquisite second in his arms. Then he let her go anthey moved ’ together toward the waiting fire. I “Valerio hopes we’ll make ago of it, but I know she thinks we'll 1 starve.” Stanley, curled up in the wing chair, smiled at John Harmon - where he had flung himself famil- / ierly on the hearth at her feet. His f knees were' propped tip beneath his - chin, his hair was rumpled into its 1 natural state of confusion. s ** Valerie'• seen too much of

starving—emotional, mental starving. She's hard-boiled and suspicious. You can't blame her much. Life doesn’t hold any illusions foi Valerie, it’s always been too full of hard, cold facts. She may not get a lot of romance out of life but neither is she going to get a lot of grief—not if she can help it! But we won’t starve, Stanley. I haven't told you before but I have a surprise for you. Wedding present, sort of!” He smiled up at her in the firelight. “Your husband has a real job—some regular work with a publishing house. Maynard arranged it for me.”
Stanley sat upright, frowned at ' him. “But, John Harmon, you’ll i hate that! And your book—"what about your book?” “I won’t hate it at all and the : book will come on better than ever. It’s proof reading that I can do jight here and it means a certain income — small but regular. With • what stories I’ll sell and the fifty • a month I can depend on from the > farm, it will carry us along until the book is finished.” “You’re counting a lot on tbs I book, aren't you, John Harmon?” “I expect I am." His eyes left : the fire and sought hers, smiled at
her quickly. “More now than ever. You see I didn’t use to think of it in terms of money, it didn’t use to matter so much about that. It meant something — different to me. But now,” his eyes went back to the fire, “now, there is so much I want to do for you, Stanley. Money has suddenly become very ■ important to me. dear.” Afi oddly frightened look flicki ered fora moment in Stanley's r eyes, was gone almost before it 4 L—— Ck* I— — J . F. •
was there. She laughed softly, roassuringly. “Not more important than—love.” “No, but perhaps more important than—dreams.” They were both to rememlier this on another and less happy night. They talked of many things after that, as two people will who are much together and yet never without thoughts which must be exchanged; they talked against time and a look in each other’s eyes, and a moment that must eventually be faced.
