The Girl Who Had No Chance By MARION RUBINCAM

Chapter 72 NEW PLANS Ruth cried most of her nervousness away, and Langley sat quietly holding her until the hysteria went out of her sobs and she was calmer. He was so tall that when he impulsively gathered her ud in his arms, she curled up on

his lap like a little child. She remem- j

bered afterwards that he did not even try to kiss her he simply held her until she stopped crying. Then she looked up and a .little feeling of self-consciousness came over her. She stirred, and he let her go at once. In fact, he picked her up and put her back on the couch, throwing an old knitted blanket over her feet. Then he sat on the edge of the couch and took her hand. There was something very sweet and big brotherly in the way he had chosen to show his sympathy. Ruth was too unstrung at the time to think about it. but afterwards she realized how gentle and competent and dependable he was and how he had almost charmed away some of her nervousness. "Tell me about your father I mean when he was young," he begged. Ruth began to talk and it was comforting to talk about the little man she had loved so dearly. "He always knew whatever bothered me. I never even had to tell him." she ended her story. "But I always did tell him, even things I could not tell mother. Except about Tim. And that was so well, big and serious and he was ill and, after all, it's pretty hard to confess you cared about a man who didn't care about you." "Tim," Langley repeated the name for the first time. Ruth had told him about her love affair and he had told her about his; indeed, after the exchange of confidences, their friendship had grown the warmer. But either Ruth had never mentioned the name or else Langley had not taken any notice of it. "Tim." he repeated. "Now I remember that was the first name of the young chap I did out of a job in one office in New York City the chap who gave me a letter to you."

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: Do you think it is right for an American girl to marry a foreigner who has lived here since he was two years old, but has never taken out naturalization papers? Would the marriage be legal? WOP. The success of marriage depends upon congenial tastes and temperament. Very often marriage between a person of a northern climate and one of a southern climate does not. prove satisfactory, because the dispositions of the two people are quite opposite. Without a doubt the foreigner is as thoroughly American as our own men born here. Judge him by his temperament and not by the act that he is foreign born. Of course the marriage would be legal. Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am twenty, married and have two children. My husband is thirty-seven years old. For the first six months after we were married he was very good to me and gave me all the money that I needed. Soon after we moved to a certain town and since then he has not given me much money. He says it is not necessary for a woman to have money. He buys all that is needed for the children. Do you think that he is doing right? He is worth a lot of money and I can't see why he does it. Please let me know what you thinik about it, a I am anxious to know. I am young and considered pretty. BROWN EYES. Every' wife should have her allowance. The allowance should vary, of course, according to her husband's in- . come and to the number of things which the allowance must cover. Some women are given a spending money allowance, while others are expected to pay the household expenses. Some time when your husband is in a good mood, perhaps after he has enjoyed a good meal, approach him about money matters. Tell him that you are doing the best you can to make him and the children happy and that you think he in turn is trying to make you happy. Say that you knowhe does not realize how much a little money of your own would mean to you, or you know that he would give it to you. Do not become excited during the conversation, and do not insist. Sweet earnestness on your part will be more effectual than irritable insistancc. If the first time fails, let the matter drop several months before ou bring it up again. Most men can be coaxed into doing things by love and humoring.

"That's the one." "Yes, I remember now. I felt badly about losing him his place, but he was not needed in that organization, and I found him a, place in another firm." "Where he liked It so well that he worked very hard, and was raised in salary until he could afford to get

married." "So, indirectly, I caused you to lose him at least I was the means by which he could marry the other girl." Langley held one of Ruth's hands. But he had settled himself more comfortable on the couch, and was staring now at the fire "It wasn't your fault," Ruth put in. "No, I was only playing Fate's little game for Fate," he said. "He was rather a likeable chap as I remember, though he was no particularly good at the work in that first job." "I don't suppose Ttim could work hard at anything he was not interested in "Ruth mused, also looking into the fire. "He was very easy going, rather careless but nice." After a moment she added, "I thought he was wonderful." "We all do when it's first love. I don't believe a second love is ever as romantic. I can't tell, I never got over the first affair," the man confessed. "Nor I. Langley, it's too bad we can't fall in love with each other!" Ordinarily Ruth would never have said this, but tonight, after his sympathy, after the racking night that had passed before, she could say it just as she could sit there on the couch half covered with the rug, and let him hold her hand. There was no sentiment in it, only a warm and lovely friendliness and sympathy. "Mother wants us to fall in love. Father did, he almost said so be-before -" Her voice broke again, as she recalled the last words he had said to her. "I used to think it was a shame that my interest in Tim, who isn't a hundredth as good as you, should keep me from falling in love with you."

"And I used to wonder why I never felt romantic about you, when you are so superior to the brainless little child

that broke me all up." There was silence again. Then Ruth said: "I think, after all, you are such a rare friend that it would be a shame to spoil it by falling in love." Langley smiled still holding her hand. "I used to be pretty cynical about women till I saw how fine you were. I never knew a real friendship was possible between a man and a woman Ruth, if you like me so as a friend, will you do something to please me?" "Yes." "After the funeral, go to New York. In two weeks you can arrange your work so you can leave, and you must have a rest and a change. You'll have plenty of money, for you've some coming from Riley's office, you told me. I want you to get as far away from this sort of life us possible for a!xut three weeks. Will you?" The girl nodded, not knowing what that casual suggestion was to bring out.

STARR-MADE MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS Have a Pedigree

The Starr of today measures up to the high standards of its ancestors, thus meetings the requirements -set by people of good musical judgment. The value of a musical instrument should not be measured alone in dollars and cents, but by the influence it has in stimulating the best influences in the home. When you purchase a thing which becomes so nearly a part of the family life, you feel that every precaution should be taken to guard against any mistake in your choice. Buy a Starr-made instrument and you are eliminating any danger of regret, as the same firm is responsible for its construction, its sale and the service which goes with it and is so important to the customer. There is no divided responsibility when you want service on Starr-made instruments, whether you want it today or ten years hence. The Starr Piano Co. 931-935 Main Street Richmond, Indiana
