SYNOPSIS Gilbert Windon had been in love with lovely Denise Rendalc from the moment he met her but she had eyes for no one except Keith Sheldie, handsome young playboy. However, Keith and Denise break up when the irresponsible Keith does not offer to marry Denise upon learning of her father’s financial ruin. Keith frankly explained that he was solely dependent upon his wealthy father, and to marry meant being disinherited. Denise’s sister, Felicia, suggests that she marry “money” immediately as Felicia herself had done. The latter loved the late Duane Fenton but married the unexciting, though reliable, Eustace Gardiner Dayne when Duane failed her. When Gilbert proposes, Denise honestly tells him she loves someone else, but accepts him on the condition that the marriage be a formal one and, if at the end of a year she is not happy, he will free her. Keith is disturbed when he hears the news but does not believe Denise will go through with it. One day at breakfast, when his father is particularly domineering and disagreeable Keith queries, “Why do you dislike me so?” “I dislike you because you are soft like your mother," came the reply. When Keith was only a year old, his mother had run away with her music teacher and had died shortly after. Since then, the embittered Sheldie, Sr., took his hurt out on his son, bending him to his will and preventing Keith from living his own life. The latter was often filled with self-contempt for enduring his father’s treatment. At first he stood it for loyalty but, as the years passed, he realized it was because of the money he would inherit. On the morning of the announcement of her sister’s engagement, Felicia was breakfasting in bed, trying not to be annoyed by the click-clack of her husband's riding-boot. She had not anticipated how dreary marriage without love could be. Just then Eustace comes into the room and asks, “Look here, Felicia, is this marriage of Denise's going to be all right?" CHAPTER IX “I was thinking, Felicia, that Denise is not the sort who should marry without love,” Eustace went on. There! He was shrewd to figure that out. How had he? He saw so little of Denise, she didn’t suppose he knew about Keith. She said slowly: “Love has so many definitions.” “No; don’t put me off, darling. It seems pretty important.” “Pretty important, too, that Father and Mother shouldn’t go bankrupt, Eustace.” "I was afraid that was it,” She did not answer. He looked at her straightly, his gray eyes clear as a child’s. “If you think it’s all right—” “How can one be sure? I think it’s sensible.” “Yes. It was sensible of you to marry me, too, instead of Duane. Have you been glad you did, though?" She was so startled she could not believe she had heard him aright. Never since their wedding-day had he said anything that indicated he knew she had married him while she loved his reckless cousin. He said, evenly: “Don’t look troubled, my dear. Sometimes. I’ve just wanted to know if you were really happy. You’re so much cleverer than I, and you pretend better. I shouldn’t have asked, of course.” “You should have asked, if you wanted to know.” But she could not, could not keep her voice from shaking, remembering how madly she’d loved Duane, now she had wept, secretly and so alone, when he crashed the last of the planes he loved, and died swiftly.

Her husband looked at her. She made herself be steady. Futile to wonder whether she wished she'd shared one year with Duane, instead of having all the other years could bring her—to wonder still whether she wished she had been beside him in that last instant when his plane went down, and he who had so hated loneliness must have been so dreadfully lonely, facing death. She said, very fast: “1 wouldn’t have married anyone but you. I’m always glad I'm married to you, Eustace. But he had been watching her face, not listening to her words, and he sighed. “Perhaps Gilbert isn’t prepared to keep Deniae with such a light rein.” That odd phrase caught at her. Yes, he had held her with a -ery | light rein, these three years. Sud-

denly, she felt ungrateful. “Eustace, I’m not half as nice to you as I should be. But you mustn’t get notions in your handsome head, just because once, briefly, I was fond of your cousin. Such ages ago, I’d almost forgotten it, and never guessed it worried you.” She held out her round arms to him. He bent down to kiss her, and she made her kiss reassuring. No need to let Eustace be unhappy, if kisses could help it! November was a month of gray lowering days and odd, clear, sunlit days that seemed left over from a far summer. It seemed to Denise that they went by fast, yet were empty, though she was occupied with her trousseau and wedding arrangements. “A quiet Wedding, if you don’t mind, dear,” her mother said gently. “It’s in much better taste, since our money is Gilbert’s really.” She said she did not mind. “No use in a long engagement,” Felicia said firmly, “since Gilbert can best arrange his affairs to take a leave soon.” Denise echoed her: “No use in a long engagement.” Gilbert was gone to Canada for that arrangement of his affairs. “I’m going to take a whole vear off,”

he said, “and spend it making you happy.” She could not quite repeat, “making you happy.” She felt neither happy nor unhappy, only altogether calm, as the days followed each other. Her marriage was arranged for the week before Thanksgiving. Gilbert would not return until immediately before the wedding. They would sail for the Mediterranean. Their further plans were indefinite. None of those things seemed either specially important or very real. She grew a little thin, and Felicia's expression, watching her, was sometimes dubious, so that one day Denise said to her: “Don't worry. I’ll go through with it, you know —largely because of Mother and Father. They’re so pleased.” Felicia just said: “They are. aren't they?”
iwc. It was five days before her wed- 1 ding-day, and four before Gilbert’s i expected return, when in her morn- ' ing mail Denise had a letter from Keith—a very short letter: “I’m just back from the West, Denise, and should like to see you for a few minutes. Will you have ■ tea with me either Friday or Saturday if you are free? Unless you’d I rather not, of course. “I shall be in the Plaza lobby both days, at half-past four. So don’t bother to answer this. Just appear if you choose. “If you don't choose, well, consider that there are enclosed all ths best wishes for you, my darling. But I’d rather make them personally. Only—-to make them is of course not the principal reason I want to see 1 you. Keith,” That letter came on Friday morn- : ing. All day she thought she did not know whether she meant to meet t him or not. But wild excitement t flamed in her; and her eyes and t cheeks were brilliant, so that even her unobserving father noticed and said: “How well and happy you look, Denise!” i £ (To be continued) Copyright by UnuU Parrott ■ Distributed by Kins FcauirM Syndicate. log.
