CHAPIEK NINETEEN So n everything was ready and the three of them were on the poreh at the gayly b-decked table. Birds chirped sleepily tn the semi-twj-light; along the stream frogs croaked their dismal, monotonous tirade; everywhere locusts filled the air with a grating harangue of sounds; while two squirrels close by argued violently. Tory and Dorothy kept tip a banter of words which only mildly amused Gabrielle because of her i wn gnawing thoughts. Sheseemed filled with unhappy regrets. Why, h why, she wondrred. the pain deepening in her breast, couldn’t she and Peter have managed to get along as Dot and Tony were? “Eat, me hearty, or you’ll be paler than you arc!" cried Tony, smiling at her in such away that she suddenly knew he realised she was not happy. "I'm not pale. Tony—Pm just fagg' d out,” she told him. The days moved on and every tune Gabrielle wanted to ask Dorothy about the meaning of her remark at the bcaeh. she was forestalled by Tony’s appearing, or the needs of Tony the third. It became a sort of mania with her.... They went swimming, fishing, canoeing; thev ate. read, cooked, slept Gabrielle became a golden dryad with the deepening color of her skin. Her hair took on new life and shimmered daaalingly in the September sunshine. Her eyes were s mbtr. however, in spite of all her efforts to be gay. They revealed her heart and the other two could guess easily that she was actually unhappy. In the kitchen she proved herseff awkward and inexperienced in the art of even simple cooking. To set a table delightfully, to gather an attractive bouquet of wild flowers for its center, to prepare a tempting salad—if all the ingredients were piaced before her ready for use—these things she did with an ease and {trace. “How did you learn to eook. Dot?" she a-k'-d one day in despair, after one of her efforts at cooking a one di*h meal had turned out to be an abject-looking concoction. ‘Why. I don’t know—l just al- < ways have, Gaby,” replied Dot, eyeing her seriously. “And—you never have, you know ” "But—” h* sitated Gabrielle, a 10-. k of puzzlement coming over her charming face—"why did you when you have several servants in the house? We have had only Violet." "I th.nk mainly because I've always liked to,” said Dorothy ieveUy. "And, well, don't be peeved. Gaby, but my folks just haven’t ever ep .led any of us. With four children < in the family, even if there has been plenty of money, there's always been so much to be done." Gabrielle stared at her Intently, her face contracting like a puzxled child's. "Do you think I'm so dreadfully spoiled. Dot?" Dorothy laughed: "My word! Do I?" "Oh." breathed Gabrielle. She slumped forlornly in the chair she was occupying, and added softly: "I'm surely not much good to anyone—am I. Dottie?" "Hold on I I wouldn't say It was that bad Tony and 1 value you muchly, my sweet." “I'm sure I don't see why." mused Gabrielle sadly. "I can see how it is now Someway, these days in the woods have given me a good look at myself. Tell me truthfully. Dot, do you blame f’eter for leaving me?" "Oh—oh, dear! Let’s talk about 1 something pleasant. Gaby!" "Dot-look at me!" exclaimed Gabrielle abruptly. Dorothy obligingly turned black

eyes on Gabrielle, but there was an | obaeura expression on her Indian 1 tanned face which seemed to be try--1 ing to cover over her real thoughts. “Tell me the truth, Dot. I ean take i IL I want to know if you think 1 1 deserved to be left by Peter? I want • your bonest opinion about our marriagw. Toil me, Dot—tt will do me good I" Dorothy stared at her apeculative- , ly for a moment Tony. Gabrielle knew, waa out in the canoe aome- . where, and Bonnie had taken the t aby out for a sunning. “Why did you say you Mver onpectod my marriage to last. Dot? I’leaae tel) mol" she persisted. Black eyes gaxod eearchlngly into golden haaei ones. Then Dorothy said in her low, eneaureMive voice: "Gaby—you know bow I am about you. I wouldn’t hurt your feelings for anything—" Gabrielle’s eyes softened; she smiled a little one sided grin, and murmured: “Os ssurea, Dot C= on." “Well, the truth of the matter is you’re so darned spoiled you never consider anyone except yourself, and have never learned to do anything worthwhile In your life!“ “Thank rou,“ aaid Gabrielle steadily. “And—Peter? Do you think so highly of him that you think our crackup waa all my fault?" “Hardly that. Gaby!“ “Well, do you?“ Gabrielle’s voice was brittle; she spoke impatiently. “For heaven’s sake. Dot! Just toll me what you think!" "I think you’re being melodramatie." murmured Dorothy, looking out of the window thoughtfully. “Listen, Dot," Gabrielle spoke in a low voice, end it shook a little in spite of her desperate effort to eontrol it. "I want to know what you meant so long ago when you said you never expected Peter and 1 would make a go of our marriage. I want to know what you really think. It's important Dot!" "Hut what good does it do now," wailed Dorothy, bringing her wistful gaze back into the room again. Yell w sunlight lay in squares over the floor. Birds sang cheerily outside. "It’s over and done with. What can you do about it now. Gaby? Let's forg. t it and go for a swim." "No," snapped Gabrielle, suddenly setting her lovely mouth in a straight stubborn line. “Tell me now. Dot. Tell me exactly what you think »t our messy marriage. Whose fault do you really think it was? Tvl me!" “There you go I" snapped Dorothy suddenly. "Telling me just what I should do. Don't you see. Gaby, it's just your way of doing things? You order everyone around, direct everything, and expect everybody to always do what you want—never do you even consider what they might like!" “I donX Doti" It really wasn't a demal; it was a hurt protest “I didn't order Fetor around, Dot—j know f didn’t" “No," conceded Dorothy thoughtfully, “you didn’t exactly order him around. You—ok, bow can I make you see what you del You simply go ahead on your way, gayly, expecting everyone to make you happy—and mostly everyone does try to! Like taking Peter to the night club right after we were married. Gaby!” “What do you mean. Dot?" "We!!, we asked you to go with us and Peter said he didn’t think you should. Then you surely remember bow you eaid, ‘Please, Peter, let's celebrate by going fore little while’, and Peter still thought you shouldn't go. He gave as an escuse that he had to be at work 00 early." “Go on Dot," urged Gabrielle, her feee pale in spite of her tan.

n Dorethy scowled darkly, and conn tinned: “It just made me furious with you, Gaby, much as I Io vs you I u You insisted and Peter kept looking e at you so doggnned—oh, pshaw! t You know he worshipped you, t Gabyl" “Did he?" whispered Gabrielle, a "YouVe darned right he did!" stormed Dorothy, her dark eyes - snapping angrily. She warmed to r her subject: - "And —you took him and knew he ■ didn’t have anything but his love for you, and—oh. Gaby - you broke • bis heart. I know you did!” ! *‘l bndte his heart I Well, what about mine!” > Dorothy’s black brows sudden!; f arched in defeat She waved her : slim, brown hands distractedly ar l she continued: 1 “There! Your heart! Can't you even consider what Petor might 1 have been suffering? Cant you I ever, ever think of anyone except I yesr own selfish self?" “But—what'a our going to the 1 night club got to do with our mar- ■ riags—with our getting along?" “I donut that I can make you see, you're so wrapped up in your own feelings. But—l’ll try again. Think, 1 Gabyl You’re plenty Intelligent, so that eant be your excuse. You forced Peter to go to the night club, 1 star up till all hours, spend over ten dollars when he needed it to pay rent probably, or a grocery bill!” “We shouldn't have spent the money," agreed Gabrielle soberly, 1 “but. Dot, I didn't make him go. He 1 could have refused—l'd gladly have Stayed home with him!" She thought painfully, oh, how gladly she’d welcome an opportunity to stay home with him now. ~ . “Ye gods! Gaby, you forced him because he loved you! Can't you get it? He loved you so much that by your insisting the least bit he would have probably cut off his head! The more fool, he!" Dreamily: “Dottie, do you honestly believe he loved me so much*" Dorothy threw up her hinds sgain, picxed up a dish doth and began scrubbing the white pine work table with vigor, although the table j was spotless. “Oh, Dot! Please don't he impatient with me." pleaded Gabrielle, 1 suddenly feeling tearful. “I'm try. ing to understand your viewpoint." a 4 u , t ~?" Ik,, '® th y threw down the dish cloth, "that's just iL Gaby. It isn't just my viewpoint—it's everyone’s!" Gabrielle stored at her for a mo- j ment, her face a study. A look of consternation had erased the desire I to cry from her face. She asked haltingly: “Everyone's, Dottie?" "Well, so far as I know. Please. Gaby! Please don’t look so hurt!" "It's quite all right. DoL And- ! thank you for telling ma I—l didn't i understand things, I guess." Very thoughtfully Dorothy stared after her as she got up and went I into her room. Gabrielle’s expres- ' sion was strange looking, remote, I almost blank. Gabrielle shut the door softly, and went over and sat down on the bed. I Her thoughta were in turmoil, but foremost among them was the searing thought that she had injured i Peter. Odd got up on the bed beside , her and Gabrielle didn't put him off ' as she usually did. After a few minutes she lay Faptly at ths unfinished, beamed ceiling. She !ay there for over two hours, but the greater part of this tune she was not conscious of her surroundings. Around and around went her ' thoughts, some of them emerging as whole ideas, aad these forming certain determined resolutions. (To be continued) DfB'HBwvBG to is IM Brtoiegia
