ambling all over the screened veranda. "You'd be a sensible lady, as I am. and rfallzv that when there U an unusual stress of work on hand a man has to stay in the city, you wouldn't object to his calling on his friends or even taking them out to dinner or the theater." It co-t rne an effort to fay this calmly and pleasantly. First, because, dear -friend as little Mrs. Durkee is, I inwardly resented her strictures upon my affairs. And second, because I wa.s by no mean as complacent
over the news she had brought me as I outwardly appeared.-
Not that I ever again could be really jealoua of FJdith Fairfax. That she still hopelessly loved Dicky I war sure, although her war work had given her other interests, and had broadened her horizon so that she would never again be a unhappy over him as she' had been. Rut during the time following Dicky's Airplane accident, Lsion had been given me to see many things, and among them was th glorious truth that despite his volatile unstablenesü my husband s heart was supremely mine. I was not idiotic enough to believe that 1 never would face the danger of louirg him. but I knew that his fancy
(would never be enme.-hed by a girl
of Kdith Fairfax's gentle, rather colorless nature. The rare beauty, the Imperious ways, the touch of diablerie of the (.J race Draper type of girl weuld always spell danger, ut least temporarily for me. Hut our marital love had weathered one' such test, and I resolutely shut my eyes to the possibility of another. And as for Idle, graceful attentions from Dicky to his studio friends. I had long wince made up my mind that I would waste neither time nor emotion in needless thought over them. Rut it is one thing to resolve, another to carry out that resolve, not only in the letter, but In the s-plrlt. So, while 1 was abb' to keep my face composed, my hands from trembling, yet any wife will understand that my brain did not exactly enjoy the pictures which little Mrs. Durkee's words had Hashed upon it. Inconsist
ently, selrishly also, I must admit. 1 1
would rather have visualized my husband sulking in his studio over our disagreement than have pictured hin making a joyous fourth in the outings of Alfred Durktu and the Fairfax girls. And despite rny outward composure, little Mrs. Durkee was shrewd enough to read my thoughts. "You're a good talker. Madge," she said calmly, putting out a steadying hand toward Junior, who w.ls doing his best to oerturn the walking ch.iir, "but you can't blulf me. You're no more pleased to hear f Dickyrushing a girl around to places than any other woman would be. but I suppose you'd be chewed up in little pieces before you'd admit it. "How this youngster does grow!" He must be nrarlv a yar old. isn't he?" "He-il have his first birthday next Sunday," I -aid proudly. "Bless mv soul." my little friend exclaimed excitedly. "I didn't know it was that near." X .''he snatched Junior from his walking chair and began to coo over him in her delightful fashion. "Weys his heart, if his Auntie rmrkot didn't almost forget dis booful baby's birfday. Never mind. lie shall have- somelint,' irt tty. so h Fhall." Shi' interrupted herself to look tip at me shrewdly:
This woman is 25 years old. She's a fine, good-looking, strong, healthywoman, with a good mind, gooi social position, nnd a good home. Sh5 has a perfectly good husband, who gives her plenty of money to spend, a fine house to lives in all the good
i clothe s she can we-ar, and talks her
to death about his first wife, morning, noon and night. He has the- picture of his first wife elone in oil in th living-room, a largo photograph of her framed and hung In the library, and a lovely, water-color sketch of her in his bedroom. He celebrates her birthday, and the anniversary of his marriage tu her. to this day. He's always talking about her favorite flowers, and quoting her favorite poets. The other day the n-w wife found him reading over the betters his first wife wrote him when they were engaged, and she- f-e:3s she can't stand it any longer. What makes It the worst is that she knew th first wife, and the first wife was a delicate Invalid, never well for an hour at a time, selfisn. exorbitant In her demands, absolutely useless from 1 practical point of view. lAv in "The n." The- second wife Is bringing up the first wife's two children. She helps him in his business affairs, entertains hi friend, keeps his house beautiful for him, and yet, on and on he talks, about the lovely angel who suffered so terrible all the years, and then passed away and left him desolate. What would I do in such a case as that? Dear me, I don't know. I'm afraid I'd either laugh or be. bored to death. I don't think I could be- very angry. The poor man is evidently suffering from a habit of "reminiscing." Some people are made like that: nothing that Is now is ever quite right with them. They are always living in the "Was Then"
time. They prefer faded roses to freh flow -rs, old memories to present joys. Now if. poor, practical, energetic Thirty-five could jusr p.isf away herself, hrr husband would doubtless bore his friends to tears talking about her after she was gone. Rat if she can't "die. it seem to me the best thing far her to do is to liven husband un a little. .Make It "Now." Get him so buy with Now. thM he has no lime to th:nk arf-ut "Then." And when the children come, the r.ew children cf the newmarriage, they'll take up his attention, and he won't have 'he energy to ppare jn tearful reminiscences. Poor man he probably thinks he 'r. perfe-vlv happy with the poor, little invalid who was able to do so little for him. Wouldn't it be a good id 'a. Thirtyfive, to find out just whe.t some of hr good qualities were and try to Imitate them. Perhaps, with all hr-r failings, she loved him with true devotion, and he had sense enough to know it .and appreciate it.
That counts sometimes It really
does. (Copyright. 192V)
