By Beatrice Burton CHAPTER EIX G" LORIA’S one fear was that the two might see her. Quickly, as if she were fleeing, she ran across the sidewalk, and into a drug store. She sat down at the soda fountain and ordered a chocolate sundae. When it came, the sight of it made her ill. She paid her check and hurried out into the fresh air and the sunshine. ... .Thank goodness, Dick and Miss Briggs were nowhere in sight! *‘l suppose they’re having lunch somewhere, together,” Gloria thought, with a pang of self-pity. She walked along, not knowing or caring where she was going.... Th°n a poster outside a movingpicture theater caught her eye. “Jealous Wives” —the words flamed out on it. Gloria smiled grimly to herself. “I’m one of them,” she thought. “I think I’ll go In, and see what it’s all about.” She went Into the dark, cool cavern of the theater. She sank gratefully into a chair... .Ah, it was good to be here, alone! Away from her mother’s disappointed eyes, her

father’s kindliness, from Aunt Dorcas’ sharp tongue... .away from everybody. There was no sound In the theater except the whirring of a huge electric fan in the center of the ceiling. Down in the orchestra pit, the organist was turning the leaves of his music. The picture flashed on the screen. Against it Gloria could see the sllhouet of a man who sat directly in front of her... .Dick! She leaned over to touch him upon the shoulder. Then caught herself... .No, he would have- 1 to come to her! She was through begging him to take her back.... But there was a certain cold comfort in the thought that he was not with Miss Briggs, at any rate. She must have merely walked out of the building with him on her way to lunch. Gloria was glad of that The thought that Dick could give her up for a plain woman like Susan Briggs had added to her cup of bitterness. Perhaps, after all, he didn’t care so very much for her. Suddenly Dick shifted a little in his seat. Gloria held her breath. Suppose he should turn around and see her there!....He would think that she had followed him into the theater. No, he mustn’t think that. She would never give him another chance to think she wanted .him to take her back.... She was through! Softly she slipped from her chair and walked out of the twilight of the theater.
down on her like a cloud, as she went out into the thronged street. How lonely a crowd could make you fee L... Gloria turned away from the center of the town. She walked along familiar streets. She knew where she was going... .home! Not to her mother’s house, but to the little place that had been Dick’s and hers! She was going to that forbidden place....the one spot on the whole wide earth where she felt at home. How cozy and happy the little green and white house looked as Gloria came down the street toward it! It seemed to twinkle a welcome to her with all of its shining windows. ....But in the center of the green lawn was a real estate agent’s “For Sale” sign. Gloria had a sudden impulse to pull up the sign, as she might have torn a weed out of the lawn “Hello, there, lady!” a voice hailed her. Her neighbor, Mrs. Donberg, was leaning out one of the second-floor windows of the house next door. “I was thinking of calling up the real, estate people to ask them to show me through your house,” she said in her shrill voice. "But now that you’re here you can let me in. I’ll be right over!” Gloria eyed her coldly. "I’m sorry, Mrs. Donberg,” she said, "but I haven’t any key with me. I —I just came to pick some of the roses In the backyard Were you thinking of buying the house?” “Well, we’d love to have it. It’s a little bigger than ours,” Mrs. Donberg answered. Gloria knew perfectly well that she had no thought of buying the house. "She just wants to look through it, to see all my things!.... The big busy-body!” she told herself angrily, as she walked around to the backyard. I She didn’t want Mrs. Donberg poking around her house! She didn’t | want anyone to look through her house!... .And the thought that someone would presently buy it and live in it was unbearable to Gloria. Why, It belonged to her....that house! She had picked out every scrap of wall-paper in It every stick of furniture! What right had Dick to sell her house ? “I’m going in,” Gloria made up her mind, suddenly. * * * N THE grass lay a clothes' | pole. Gloria put the sharp iron end of it under one of the sunroom windows. Using it as a lever she finally managed to get the window open. She laughed aloud when she stood in the sunroom. “No Wonder there are so many burglars, if housebreaking is as easy as this!” she thought. She sat down at the piano and ran her hands lightly along the keys in the opening bars of Offenbach’s “Barcarolle.” “No,” she thought, springing up, “I’d better not play that thing It always makes me want to cry "
Puzzle a Day
This year at Deauville, the famous gambling resort in France, a Parisian, M, Kahn, is the most consistent winner. It is said that he has won 12,000,000 francs. The smallest amount he ever won at one sitting was less than 3,000 francs. If this quantity of francs is divided by %, 3, 4,6, 6,7, 8, 9 or 10 there will be a remainder in each instance of one less than the divisor. For example, this quantity divided by 2 will leave a remainder of 1, divided by 3, the remainder will be 2 and so on. What was the smallest amount of money that M. Kahn won at one sitting?
I>ast puzzle answer:
The burglar who stole ?750,000 worth of jewels left New York, went to the following cites, New York, 8, 11, 5,9, 2, 19, 10, 16, 1,4, 22, 18, 14, U, 21, 20, 7, 23, 13, 12, 24, 17, 6, 15 and then to Buffalo. Thus be passed through each town once and over no road twice.
THE FLAPPER WIFE
She knew that she was on the very edge of tears. Who would have thought, a year ago, that she could ever have felt this way about a silly old house? Gloria looked around her. There was Dick’s chair....and the reading lamp swung above it. There was the little red smoking-stand she had given him. The tray on it was filed with fine gray ash. .. . She closed her eyes. She could see him sitting there, with a book in his hands, smoking his old pipe! . . . Ah, it wasn’t the house that Gloria was homesick for, she knew, at last. It was Dick She wanted! Dick! She dropped Into his chair, and laid her head back against the brocade where his head had rested. Tears filled her throat, burned behind her closed eyelids. “I mustn’t cry!” she told herself. “I mustn't let myself feel this way about him! It’s going to break my ! heart, if I do. • . .” But the house was alive with Dick. The table where he had made little marks by knocking out his pipe, ! the writing desk, the magazines | piled on one broad arm of his chair ! spoke of him. * • G ! r ~~“ LORIA shook herself, and went upstairs. Her feet made no sound upon the steps. She felt dreadfully alone. On the threshold of Dick’s room she paused. His bed was still just as she had left it . . . made up with clean linen and the best embroidered pillow-cases. He had not slept at home then, at all! He must be living again with Mother and Father Gregory. Gloria looked Into the clothescloset. Yes, his clothes were all gone. The top of his dresser was bare. The drawers were empty. The books had been taken from the little bookcase that stood beside Dick’s bed. But on it stood a large framed photograph of Gloria herself in her wedding dress. So Dick had not cared to take that along with him to his father's house! “Well, who could blame him?” thought Gloria. “I don’t suppose he has very many happy memories of me, after all. . , Now that she stopped to think of i it, there had been more storm than [ sunshine in their life together, j “And the whole thing has been my i fault,” Gloria told herselg sternly. : It was the truth . . . and it hurt, j She turned to look at herself in | the glass, as a Judge might have j looked at a prisoner. She put herself on trial. ~ . ! She knew she had done none of the ; things a good wife ought to do for her husband. She had never taken care of his house . . never looked after.his comfort. She had told him bluntly that she would never give him a family. Children were too great a bother . . . | She had not even been utterly i faithful to him; hadn’t she let Stanley Way burn make love to her? . . • t -T*l S Gloria stood there before the glass, the telephone rang. 1 It startled her. She had supposed Dick would have had the phone taken out of the house. . . . He must have forgotten it. “Hello,” she said. “Hello, Glory,” May Seymour answered her. “So you didn’t leave home after all?” ”1 did,” Gloria said. "I just came back here this afternoon for a few minutes ... to get some things I I had forgotten. I'm staying at my mother's house, you know." “Wait there for me a few min-

"Just a few lines to thank you for your wonderful medicine. I had a trouble for about a year that was very weakening and hard to control. I took medicine for it but it didn’t seem to do much good, so I thought I would try Dr. Pierce’s medicine which I had heard so much about. I took five bottle of the ‘Favorite j Prescription’ and two of the ‘Medical Discovery,’ and I feel like a different woman. I praise Dr. Pierce’s medicines and recommend them to all suffering women.”—Mrs. George E. Mottweiler, 1747 Shelby St., New Albany, lnd.

Gloria Sees Dick in a Movie Theater, But She Avoids Him.
utes, will you?” May asked. “I’ll be right over. I want to talk to you.” “All right,” Gloria replied listlessly. “Only hurry. I want to get out of this place. It’s spooky." The truth was that she didn't want to see May. She didn’t want her in the house. She wanted to be alone there, for a while ... to think things out. She heard May laugh mirthlessly. "Spooky?” she repeated. “If you think your house is spooky, you ought to spend a night here in mine. It’s fairly haunted. . . . Good-by.” Gloria shuddered as she hung the receiver up on its hook. She wondered how May stayed there in the house where Dr. John had killed himself! . . . • * • HE ran downstairs to see If there were any cigarets in the silver box of Dick’s smoking stand. May loved a smoke, occasionally. , . . There were a half dozen cigarets in the box. Gloria stood looking at them, for a minute. Then she picked them up and threw them into the empty grate. No. she made up her mind, she would never smoke, again! She was through doing the things that Dick said no nice woman would do! Even though he should never know it, she would become the kind of wife he had always wanted her to be!

Croup Relieved Without Dosing Too much dosing is harmful to a child’s delicate stomach. Often it lays the foundation for ill health In later life. The next tmie a child seems croupy in the evening apply Vicks over throat and chest and cover with a warm flannel cloth. Leave the bedclothing loose about the neck so that the arising vapors may be freely inhaled. This usually prevents a night attack. If croup comes on without warning an application of Vicks usually brings relief in fifteen minutes. Vicks can be applied freely and often, even on the youngest child with perfect safety.
