She looked up at Waybum with wet, redrimmed eyes. “How can I help crying?’’ she asked. “It’s bad enough to think of your going away—but to think that you’re going where that Chotek woman is... Oh, it was too much! Gloria burst into fresh sobs. Waybum put his arm around her. There was a look of annoyance in his eyes. Nothing in the world bored him quite so much as a woman in tears. It robbed her of all the beauty that made her a thrilling companion. “Oh, come, come. Russet!” he said impatiently. “Only a few days ago you were ready and willing never to see me again! How come you’ve cha'igerl your mind so soon? I never know where I stand with you!” Gloria drew a long sobbing breath. “If you had my mind you’d want to change it, too,” she said. "It’s driving me crazy. I try to put you out of it but you keep coming back. I've done my best not to I think of you for weeks —Oh, what un I going to do when you're Line?" rJeVaybum patted her shoulder comfortingly. "Well, I’m not so happy about leaving you, little Russet,” he said. “But let’s forget it. This may be the last day we’ll ever have together.

There came a crash! The sound of splintering glass! A blinding glare as a thousand lightings! Then, darkness!

Gloria, got her arm between his chest and hers. She pushed him away from her. “You poor sap!” she almost screamed. "Don’t touch me when I’m driving! Do you want mo, to wreck the car? We’re almost in the ditch this minute!” She steered the car to the middle of the road. The sun had gone behind a cloud-bank, and a few slivers of rain gleamed on tho windshield. “April shower,” Wayburn remarked carelessly. He had sunk into the corner of his seat. He was looking at her very hard and intensely. His jaw hardened. * * * EFORE Gloria knew what was happening, he had her in his t- .I arms again. He bent her head back and kissed the white lids of her eyes. "Russet!” she heard him say between clenched teeth, “Russet, I want you. I’d give anything in the world this minute. . . Gloria forgot all about the car. All she wanted was to get Stan’s face away from her. She was frightfully afraid of him suddenly. She raised both her hands from the steering w heel and caught him neatly under iis right jaw bone. There, -jame a crash Tne sound of splintering glass. A blinding glare as of a thousand lightnings! Then . . . darkness! There was a roar like Niagara in Gloria’s ears. And above it she heard someone screaming like a wild animal caught in a trap. It was too sound of her own voice. • • * (r-p. ' HE patter of gentle rain in her , I face awakened her. I * She was lying in the wet road. Above her towered the little blu” car that Dick had given her for her birthday. Its wheels were in the air. Near her on the rainstreaked clay lay Stan's little flask and his silver cigaret case. Gloria put out her hand to pick them up. But a sharp pain in her shoulder stopped her. She groaned and shut her eyes with the agony of It. . . . Then she looked all around her. Whore was Stan? Could he be pinned under the wrecked car? . . . Gloria’s breath almost stopped at the terrible thought, “Stan!” she called, “Stan, where I are you? Answer me!” There was no reply . . . not even an echo. With almost superhuman effort she dragged herself up on one elbow. She looked down the wet road. Far In the distance was a man's figure. Gloria knew it was Stan. “I suppose he’s going for help, ’ she groaned aloud. "And he’d bet ter hurry! For I’m going to die if someone doesn’t stop this pain pretty soon!” She clenched her teeth. Her whole hot y was a mass of red-hot pain that grew worse every minute . . . Then the world seemed to spin away from her. She fainted again. The next time Gloria opened her eyes she thought the sun was shining. She seemed to be looking straight into it.

THE FLAPPER WIFE

But after a while she saw that it wasn't the sun, after all, but a lamp burning on a table near her. It was an oil lamp with a yellow glass shade. Beside it sat a little cl. 1 lady with round, red cheeks, wrinkled like winter apples. She was knitting. • • • ’ "J HERE am I?” Gloria \)U tho’.ght. Then, suddenly, '' she remembered. She made a great effort to speak. And at last she did. “Where's Stan?” she asked. “Your husband? That's what we’d like to know!’’ the little old lady said. She pushed her spectacles up on her forehead and peered ut Gloria "He came here and told me and the mister that his wife was lying dead under the wreck of his automobile up the road, jest as we was settin’ down to supper,’’ she said. "And while the mister was getting his coat on to go hack there with him . . . didn’t he disappear Jest as sliek as you please!’' Gloria groaned. That was just like Stan. “The mister has telephoned to town for an ambulance. It ought to be here for you any minute now,” the old lady went on. As she spoke there came the sound of an automobile outside the house. Heavy footsteps came across the porch of the little farmhouse that sheltered Gloria. The door of the room opened and an old farmer, followed by two men came in. The two men carried a stretcher. Gloria. screamed with pain when they picked her up and laid her on It. She whimpered like a hurt animal all the way to town as the ambulance jogged back over the road . . . the same road that she and Stan had traveled that afternoon. • • • When Gloria opened her eyes again she was lying in tho bright, white receiving room of a hospital. Two nurses were with her. One was gently taking off Gloria’s mudstained clothes. The other stood beside her with a pad and pencil. “What’s your name?" she asked. Gloria hesitated. ' "Gloria Gregory,” she said at last. "Nearest relative?” asked the nurse. Gloria gave her mother’s name and address. Then she began to cry. “I want my mother!” she sobbed, “I want my mother. . . . And tell her for heaven's sake to find out what’s happened to Stan'” She hated to think of Stan in his
