"A Man and His Wife"

By Virginia Terhune Van de Water. CHAPTER XXVIII. Isabel Hamilton told herself that her husband had set the pace, and she bad a right to follow it, . V John Hamilton told himself that his wife had suspected him, had spied upon his actions and that, therefore, he was justified in being as deceitful as she imagined him to have been. And as neither looked at the matter coolly and impartially, neither was conscious of being in the wrong. Yet women of Isabel's type have led more sheltered lives than have their husbands and it requires some strong impelling motive to make them set aside the conventionalities as mere trifles. It is one thing for a woman to determine to do as she pleases irrespective of her husband's ideas: it is quite another thing for her to carry out this determination. So when Isabel received a note from Duval she hesitated for some hours before answering it. Duval wrote that Mrs. Ferris had kindly invited him to to occupy at her table the place left vacant by Mr. Hamilton's enforced absence from the dinner. Might he not have the pleasure of acting as Mrs. Hamilton's escort? Might he not call for her and take her to Mrs. Ferris's house and bring her home at the end of the evening? To do Isabel justice, her first though was that perhaps John might not like this plan. Then she recalled the episode of the telephone message from Adelaide Simmons. She also reflected that probably John had been with Adelaide during those night hours following the delivery of the message. She would ascertain if this was the case. At any rate, she would let Duval bring her home from Ida's dinner. Since John would not come for her, there was no other way of getting home.; But she would not tell Duval Just yet that he might call for her. She would wait until tomorrow to answer his letter. So tomorrow after breakfast she remarked abruptly to her husband: "Pardon me for seeming inquisitive, but I have a reason for asking you one question. Did you see Mrs. Simmons that night you were out so late?" John flushed. Was Isabel going to "start something" again? Yet he almost wished she would, for she had been so strangely silent since that night with regard to that entire occurrence. "Yes," he said now, "I saw her with a lot of friends. You see" But she stopped him. "Thank you," 8he said briefly, "that Is all I wanted to know."

She Decides to Accept Duval's Invitation. An enigmatical remark, surely, and it left him unable to carry on the conversation. Secretly, he was afraid to. He could not know that already in her own mind the wife had decided to accept David Duval's offer for next Thursday evening. It would be much pleasanter to go in a cab with him than on the subway with Cynthia. Afterwards, If John asked her any questions, she would answer him with the truth, exactly as he had just answered her when she asked him about Adelaide. But he had told her nothing until she had questioned him. Neither would she tell him anything until he questioned her. Yes what was right for him was right for her. This was her pet formula nowadays. Men are not noted for tact, so John spoke now about a matter that suddenly came to his mind. "We must have a little dinner before long" he said. "For Mrs. Simmons I suppose?" Isabel suggested. "Why, yes," he etammered, "for her and some of the people we met at her house." "Very well," Isabel agreed. "We will pave this dinner, and after that we'll 'nave one for my friends I mean for the Ferrises and some of the people whom I shall meet there next Thursday night." "Perhaps we'd best go a little slow, my dear," he demurred. "We cannot afford to have many dinners, you know." "The dinner for Ida will cost no more than the one for Adelaide," she said. "As Mrs. Simmons had us up there first, we will have her here first then, a little later, we will have my friends." He let this pass without protest. "What about a competent maid?" he asked. "Have you told Cynthia she could leave?" "I had a talk with her," she replied, "and she says, to quote her own phrase, that she 'an't no fancy cook and waitress.' " "Indeed, she isn't!" he ewlaimed with a laugh. "Let her go. She's get

ting too independent. And make your

plans to secure a new maid next week

one who knows how to cook and to

wait on the table decently." "Ida Ferris told me the other day

that her waitress has a friend who is an excellent houseworker a good t ook and likes waiting on table but

she does not want to do the washing

and she does want five dollars more

a month than we are paying Cynthia," "Phew!" the man whistled. He thought hard for a moment.

"Ida tells me that's what everybody

has to pay if she keeps competent maids," Isabel continued. "And if you want to entertain, why, I suppose we must get rid of Cynthia. Yet, you see.

that means a woman in to wash and

iron every week." Hia Idea of Her Economy Is Vexing. ' Of course it does," said John. "But

if the washerwoman does most of the

ironing, couldn't the maid finish it?" "Perhaps." doubtfully.

"Well, suggested John, "as we

must return some of the courtesy shown ut and have our friends in our home. I'll tell you how we'll arrange.

I'll pay the extra $5 a month for the

maid, and you pay for the laundress with what you save from your housekeeping allowance." "But, John," the wife protested, "how can I? I have to buy clothes and such things, you know." "You alway3 managed to look nice.

yet you have saved something each week," he said. "Why, you saved en

ough in just a few weeks to help me out by paying the insurance last month, you know. And you also know

that I am always willing to give you a little something now and then for your clothing. Surely, If you could pay the insurance as you did, you can help in such a trifle as paying the laundress

for one day a week. I have great faith in your ability as a manager, my dear. So that's settled. Let Cynthia so, and get the competent maid." To Be Continued.
