By Beatrloo Burton TUB STORY SO FAR: Gloria Gordon beautiful flapper, marries Dick Gregory, a struggling young lawyer. Gloria’s idea Os marriage is fun and fine clothes . . . but no work or children! She has hysterics when Dick tells her she must do her own housework, so he borrows Maggie, his mother s maid, to teach Gloria to cook. She refuses to learn. Gloria gives a very gay housewarming. and invites Stanley Waybum, an actor with whom she was once in love, as one of the guests. Dick instantly suspects that Gloria is still in love with him. despite the fact that Wayburn devotes all his attention to Mrs. Myra Gall. The wild party breaks up when Lola Hough "bawls out" Bill, her husband for “petting" May Seymour, wife of Dr. John Seymour, Maggie disgusted, quits her job. Gloria lures Ranghild Swanson an housemaid, although Dick has told her they can't afford a servant. Then Gloria buys S4OO worth of clothe:, and Insists upon having a car of her own. At this time, she begins to bi jealous of Miss Briggs, Dick's seero takes Wayburn for a ride in the car, and is seen by Mother Gregory. The next day when Dick is supposed to bo out of town Gloria asks Wayburn. May Seymour and May's lover. Jim Carewe, to the house. Jim brings Honor, and soon a jolly party is in progress. By Beatrice Burton CHAPTER XIX. mIM measured liquor from his flask into each of the tal\ glasses. Glory looked doubtfully at her highball as she stirred It. At last she set it down on the red lacquer smoking-stand that hud been her Christmas present to Dick. . . . Oh, why were Jim and May there, with their drinks that she didn’t want to take? Why weren’t she and Stan there alone, as they had been alone yesterday afternoon? . . . There were a thousand torturing questions that she wanted to ask him. And there was one thing she yearned to hear him say to her . . . “I love you.” For he never had. Jim stared at Glory and her untasted Highball. "What's tho matter, old girl?” he asked. “Got cold feet?” Glory nodded. "I'm afraid to drink since I passed out the other night after those cocktails,” she said. "Oh, where do you get that swe< t girl graduo.te stuff, Glory?” May asked bluntly. “Go on, take a drink. You can’t be a crepe-hanger at your own party!” "I should say not!” Stan nodded vigorously. Glory lifted her glass. "Well, here’s to crime then!” she cried and sipped the pale amber fluid slowiy. Stan leaned over and touched his glass to hers. "I drink to business trips . . . and to husbands who are away on them!” he said in a tone so low that May and Jim couldn’t hear his words. "The chaperons are going Into the sunroom, so you won’t have to whisper to each other. 'S not polite," Jim remarked in his loud, good-na-tured voice. He picked up the plate of sandwiches and followed May out of the i living room. • * • l-Xn TAX looked at Glory with a I question In his eyes. 1 I "Chaperons?” he asked. "Explain yourself. Did you ask those two birds over here today to cho '- eron us?” Glory shook her head gsavt'y. "No. not exactly,” she said.

Many people have become despondent because they have been led to believe that there is no remedy that will reduce swollen veins and bunches. If you will get a two-ounce original bottle of Moone’s Emerald Oil (full strength) at any first class drug store and apply It ntght and morning as directed you will quickly notice an Improvement which will continue until the veins and bunches are reduced to normal. Moone's Emerald Oil is a harmless, yet most powerful germicide and two ounces lasts a very long time.

“Hello, Dick,” May echoed. “ We’ve been cheering up Gloria in your absence.” “So I see,” Dick’s voice was cold and hard.

mentioned to May that you were coming to see me this afternoon, and she invited herself and Jim over. Why ... do you wish they weren’t here?” "I do,” Stan replied shortly. He gazed thoughtfully into the fire. Glory watched him. She had an almost unbearable desire to Cuds the room to him, and put her arm around him ... to hold his dark head in the crook of it . . . to tell him how very much he meant to her. Nervously she struck .n match to a cigaret. “Hmm, I had a letter this morning that I certainly wasn’t looking for,” Stan said suddenly. ' ‘‘From Sonya Chotek, I’ll bet a dime,” Glory answered. Stan laughed. ‘‘By Jove, you guessed right’’ he said, ‘‘you’re a fortune teller ’ ‘I wish I really were. Then I’d know how you feel toward all these women who send you letters,” Glory said bitterly. ‘‘How do you feel about Sonya Chotek, for instance? ... Do you think she’s as nice as I am?” ‘‘Oh, gosh, you have it all over her like a tent,” Stan promptly answered. And, for the moment, Gloria's jealousy was appeased. ‘‘By the way, did you find out for sure that your mother-in-law saw us, yesterday in the car?” Stan acked presently. "Did I find out? I’ll tell the street I found out!” Glory answered. “The minute I came home Ranghlld told me she wanted to talk to me . . . so I went over to see her, and she ‘panned’ me for half an hour about being a bad wife.” "I should worry about anything she says!” she added. “I don’t care what anybody says ... or who sees us when we're together . . . Stan, I don't care about anything in the world except you!” Glory knelt down on the floor beside Wayburn’s chair. She looked up at him, breathlessly waiting for him to speak.' But he said nothing. “Stan, do you care for me at all? . . . I’ve just got to know!” Glory asked at last. Her face was hot with shame. She hid it In her hands. ■ y rl AYBURN stood, and lfted her yy to her feet. "That drink's going to your head a little, Isn’t it, Russet?” he asked. He pushed her gently back into her chair, and stood looking at her. “Do you know you’re the prettiest thing I ever saw in that blue-green dress you’re wearing?” he asked. "You look like the Lorelei. Remember the Lorelei in the old song? . Her hair was golden, like yours.” Wayburn walked over to the piano and lifted the lid of it. He sat down and struck a few chords. Then he began to sing the Lorelei song between puffs at the cigaret that clung to his lower lip. When he had finished May and Jim applauded loudly from the sunroom. Wayburn came and sat on the arm Puzzle a Day Canada is certainly a wonderful country for big game. From Nova Scotia to British Columbia huntsmen have been reporting good hunting. In one week a hunting party bagged quite a number of deer very easily. In fact, if you multiplied that number by 3,6, 9, 12, 15 or 18 you will, in each case, get a product which repeats the same digit three times. How many deer did the hunters bag?

of Glory’s chair. There was a smile in h's eyes as he looked at her. "Little tiger-cat!” he said, “aren’t you ashamed of yourself for being jealous of Sonya Chotek, or any other woman I happen to meet? . . Don’t think of the other women. Think of Just you and me . . today!” He leaned closer. Glory shook her head. “That's just the trouble. I think of tomorrow . . . and tomorrow,” she said dismally. “I think of your going away soon, out on the road, where I won’t be able to see you . . Glory’s voice dropped to a long sigh. Stan put a piece of ice infT his half-emptied glasj. “Oh, I'm not leaving town so soon, as all that!” he remarked. “If that’s what’s worrying you!” . . There aren’t very many new shows at this time of year, you know. I may be out of a job for months. And in the meantime, I'll probably stay right here, where I can see little Russet, every once in a while. . . .” His hand stroked her hair. “Glory!” May called. “Put on a record so we can dance, will you? . . . Something peppy, please!” Glory put anew jazz record on the phonograph. Stan swept her into his arms aid they danced around the flrelit room. * • • mHE music beat in the uneven rhythm of a jungle drum. “Makes you think of tropic forests and savages dancing around fires . . . that music, doesn’t it?” Stan asked, his lips pressed to Glory’s forehead. “Do you like jazz?” Glory's eyes were starry as she smiled up it him. “I like any old kind of music when I’m dancing with you!” she said truthfully. And hated herself for saying it. . . . Stan should be the one to say nice things! And he wouldn't tell her that he loved her . . . even when she asked him to! Glory wondered if he ever had really cared deeply for any woman. She doubted it. Stan was the handsome, happy-go-lucky type of man that almost all women adore. There probably had never been any need for him to court women. They courted him .... matinee idol that be was! The walls of his dressing room at the theater had been covered with photographs of women. Pretty women, too! . . . Glory had seen them the day Stan had sent for her to come to him. How she wished now that she had not gone to the theater that day! For the very sight of Stan and the sound of his voice had brought back to her all the longing for him that she had known in her old days of friendship with him . . . before she met Dick. * * • a ni_ I ELL me about your friend May and this Carewe,” Stan ■ } was saying in an undertone. “Isn’t she married to the doctor who was at your party the other night?” Glory nodded. “She is . . . but he’s awfully busy, so Jim beaus May around,” she explained. “It’s quite all right. They’re just friends.” Wayburn smiled skeptically. “ ‘Friend-of-the-family’ stuff, eh?” he asked. Glory didn’t answer. She didn’t like any one to criticise May . . . . not even Stan! . . . They danced on. • • • m HERE’S an automobile stopping outside your house,” Stan said after a moment. “Are you expecting callers?” “Heavens, no!” Glory cried. “Stop the music. . . . It’s probably Mother Gregory coming to find out what I’m doing while Dick’s away! Somebody take the highball glasses out in the- kitchen so she can’t see them—quick!” The door opened and Dick stepped into the room. “Jiminy, here’s the returned husband!” said May, absent-mindedly returning to Jim’s lap. “Well, where do 'we go from here?” she asked. "This party’s all

rain, from this point on. I can see that!” Glory couldn’t think. Her mind was utterly blank. “Hello, Dick, old man!” Jim Carewe said heartily. “Hello, Dick,” May echoed. “We’ve been cheering up Glory in your absence.” “So I see." Dick’s voice was cold and hard. His eyes traveled from Glory to Wayburn, smiling nonchalantly. Dick’s face was white. Glory was struck by his pallor. Even his lips were whitish gray. Beads of cold sweat were on his forehead. “Dick, you’re sick!” she exclaimed She went to him, and took his hand. It tvas cold and clammy. Dick Jerked his thumb in the direction of May and Jim. "Get them out! Get rid of them!” he said, looking at Glory’. She held her hands out helplessly to May. “May dear, I hope you realize that Dick isn’t himself. He’s sick," she said. “So just don’t say anything, but go . . . and send Dr. John over here, will you. please? As soon as you get home?” • • • D r ”“-“1 ICK walked past her. He stood. scowling and threatening, bet . fore Wayburn. The actor rose and faced him, “Well, what's your trouble?” Stan asked. Glory rushed to him. “Stan, please don’t quarrel with him! Can't you see how sick he Is? . . . He doesn't know what he’s doing!” she pleaded. Dick laughed contemptuously. “Oh, I know what I’m doing, all right," he said. “Don’t worry about me! . . . What I want to know is what this fellow is doing In my house! Who asked him to come here . . . you?" He turned to Glory and seized her with one hand. His fingers hurt her flesh. She could feel that he trembled violently. (To Be Continued)
