"Tie Love Pendulum" By MARION BUBINCAM
I
THE TALK Synopsis of Preceding Chapters. Constance Bennett, daughter of a wealthy family, has spent her life in fashionable boarding schools and among people whose sole occupation is to waste money and kill time. She hates this life and when an illness causes her to be sent to the little village of Wellsville, she revels in the quiet and simplicity of its people. While there she meets, falls in love with and marries Winthrop Taylor. City life appeals to the latter so they return to New York and are swallowed up by the very life Connie wanted to get away from. Win is fascinated by it and by Gwendolyn Van Brugh, a wealthy divorcee. Connie meets and likes Colin MacReady, an artist, who
often visits them during a summer spent in the country. After the return to town Win plunges back into the frivolous life his wife hates. Connie suspects he is in love with Gwen. Feeling that there is in nothing to be gained in living scrappily together she decides to live apart from him and moves into a studio apartment.
Chapter 61 When the door shut behind me I had the uncanny sensation of having shut myself off from one sort of life and into another. The other faced me as rather blank and desolate. "Yet I had worked hard to make the new apartment attractive, and I knew that by daylight it would seem so. But now it was four strange walls and a glare of sunshaded electric lights unfamiliar furniture, and myself with a handbag standing in the center of the floor, the stranger who had arrived. Fortunately the trunks were brought then. So in the necessity of unpack
ing, I lost the first terrible chill of
leaving home for a strange new dwelling. And the following morning the place
did look better to me. At least, it looked as well as any place could to
me without Win along.
I wondered what Winthrop thought. He had some warning that I was going
to leave, because of our talk the night before. Would he be worried? Would he be shocked into a realization of how serious our differences had been? Would he, perhaps, come around and
try to make up? i 1 had purposely left my new number with Ellen, so my other trunks and my mail could be sent to me. So Win would have my address. I wondered whether he would be worried that night when he came in and found me gone. Of course, if he were upset, he would wake Ellen or the cook and find out from them what had happened and where I was. I was sure I would have some word the morning after I left. But there was none. It was strange to get up and have no mail and no waiting breakfast. I dressed and went out and marketed and came back to
cook my eggs and toast. I rather enjoyed that, in spite of my loneliness. And I spent the morning cleaning and fixing the new flat, and lunched at a little tea shop nearby. Toward evening I phoned Colin, who came around at once. "It's all over town already," he announced when he came in. "I met Sonia on the street on my way here, f he knew it What did Win say?" ' Nothing. He did not know I was going so soon, though he knew it had to happen." ' You didn't even say goodbye?" I hesitated. Then I answered In a low voice: "I couldn't."
Colin walked up and down the living
room, apparently examining the new possessions in it. His face was drawn up in a frown of concentration, he rumpled up his shock of red hair with his hand, a sure sign on his part that he wa deeply troubled. "Well:" he exclaimed at last And a little later he repeated it. "Well: I suppose it's the best thing. Everyone you know Is probably talking of it this very minute. But that will blow over. It may bring Winthrop to his senses. It will probably make you more independent, which is the thing you've needed." The br 11 rang loudly. Thinking always of Win, I ran to open the door. But it was my Aunt Harriet. She was very much perturbed, but as soon as
fhe saw Colin, she dropped instantly into what I used to call her "social mask." "How charming your new place Is: Fhe remarked sweetly, kis?ing me as she came in. "A trifle small, but so cozy. You have the knack of making any room inviting, dear. Ah, how do you do. Mr. MacReady? I hear your now portrait of the Countess Hanski is to be a great sensation. Colin bowed, a little humorous twinkle in his greenish eyes as he watched her performance. But as soon as he could, he slipped away, whispering that he would come and take me to dinner. Her mask dropped as soon as we were alone. "So you've done it:" she said. "Being an old woman, Constance, you must allow me the satisfaction of saying I told you so. I told you a few days after your marriage." "I thought you, at least, would be pleased." I said this as sarcastically as I could.
her furs. "Only why come to this hole? Why not to my home which has always been yours? We'll just turn this place over to someone else, and you can have your old rooms back again tonight." "No, I'd rather stay here for awhile, if you don't mind." She looked her turprise. Then she found the explanation that suited her best, and promptly adopted it. "Well, of course, you'll hear less gossip if you stay here you can shut people out. And lots won't come to see sou. You're not in the right
neighborhood. Try it for a few weeks, then move to my house. We'll see whether we can't get Winthrop out of town. It ought to be easily manager. I have heard of nothing else all day but this. Mary phoned you late last night and your maid told her you had gone and had given her your address. Ellen was so upset she gave it all away. We might run up to Canada until the talk blows over." Tomorrow Going My Way.

SPECULATORS ACTIVE IN MOSCOW; CAPITAL UNKNOWN QUANTITY (By Associated Press) MOSCOW, Sept. 20 Speculation is
rampant in the capital of soviet Rus
sia. Wall street, Treadneedle street or any other financial district in the world has not half as many "shoestring operators" as this ancient city of the czars. The curbs are crowded each day with promoters trying to organize cooperative concerns from tea houses to automobile factories, and the talk of money inside and outside the government has a capitalistic ring seldom
heard in Russia before the soviet gov
ernment decided it was unable to handle all business. Markets are overcrowded with dealers but buildings are standing idle because there is a lack of capital with which to pay the annual rentals which must be met in advance. Newspapers are filled with suggestions for the assistance of co-operative associations, the Pravda publishing an article urging that the state bank be allowed to make loans to encourage trade and industry. Suggestion was made that interest from ten to twelve
per cent monthly could be charged. Millions Change Hands Licenses for 897 shops and 3.4S9 market stalls or street wagons have been issued in Moscow since the open
ing of free trade. Market stalls pay from 1,000,000 to 1,500,00 rubles an
nually, according to location; boot
blacks pay 300,000 rubles for their
places of business, while shops pay 500,000 to 1,500,000, according to location, and the proprietors must also keep the property in repair and clean the court yards and streets abutting their buildings. The government levies a tax of five per cent in kind on concessionaries producing foodstuffs; 8 per cent on chemical manufacturers and 10 per cent on metal working firms. Twenty-six Moscow factories have been leased to private individuals out of 254 which the government has offered to concessionaries. These plants employ 1,700 men. The government has retained 315 factories
employing 150,000 workers but it has assumed responsibility for feeding
only 70.000. The industries retained are chiefly chemical, textile, metal, tanning, electrical and printing shops.
White silk hraid forms an effect-
ive trimming on the gray Canton crepe frock worn by Theda Bara. The simplicity of the lines of the frock also make for distinction. The braid forms a deep band on the skirt at the hips and deep cuffs on the wide sleeves. In fact the braid reaches from wrist to elbow. A single band of it marks the neckline and a white kid belt marks the waistline.

Heart Problems
!ear Mrs. Thompson: My husband likes dogs and I do not because they have to be fed and cause work. Last Saturday night he brought home a Boston terrier which he had bought. I was angry to say the least to think lie would put money into a dog when things are so tight. I told him that he would have to get another home for ihe dog. Now he says that when the dog leaves he leaves too. and he refuses to get rid of it. I know I could have tUe dog poisoned, but I am afraid
my husband would suspect me. He is a very set man and I would be afraid of the consequences. Kindly advise me of a safe way to pet rid of the dog. BOB. Since the dog means so much to your husband let him have it. He will probably be willing to feed the animal and bathe it if you are willing to let him keep it. I believe you should sacrifice your own interests In this matter in order to give your husband a pleasure which will mean much to him. Your married life will be happier If both you and your husband are ready to make sacrifices to each other. When he sees that you want him to have his way, he will be more ready to give you your way In other things.
