_ CopjTlght 1918, Warner Bros. Pictures Tno. BEWARE of BACHELORS,” with an All-Stip Cast, ia a Warner Broa. plcturlzatlon of thia novel.

BTVOPBia Dr. Daria, recently married to May Davis, is having lunch with Joe Dahbitt and his friend, Myra, when Babbitt is called away. May happens into the same hotel and is furious at seeing her husband with a girl. After explanations, Davis and May make up. Myra, just naturally flirtatious, derides to further her acquaintance with Davis and goes to his office, where she Is discovered by May and Berangerde Brie, a perfumer, who is returning some gloves May left in his shop. Another quarrel; another reconciliation. Davis receives a supposedly professional rail and finds Myra and Babbitt with friends. They try to induce the doctor to stay. CHAPTER VIII—Continued “No, thanks,” Davis answered curtly, trying to resist Myra's efforts to Induce him to “be a good egg” and looking about at the same time for some means of escape. The restaurant was growing noisier and noisier and more and more clouded with smoke. Somewhere In the rear of the room someone reinforced the tinny piano with a fresh supply of nickels and a mangled air that faintly suggested the “St. Louts Blues” rolled, out. Couples streamed from the booths about the room and started swaying to the uneven rhythm of the music. The dull orange-pink lights made of them moving silhouettes, mechanical In their gyrations. Only their faces stood out chalky pink and unreal. “Wanna drink.” The gentleman In the corner who, Myra had said,

The couple whirled around.

didn’t count any more, raised his

voice.

*'Oh, go to sleep, big hoy, and count the pretty pink elephants,” Myra giggled. "Don' wanna sh slcep,” the “big boy” announced. “Wanna drink." "Give him a drink, somebody,” Vivienne admonished. “It's the only thing that’ll keep him quiet.” Her restless red Bps curled scornfully. “Gene never could carry hts liquor’” Babbitt reached for ft bottle concealed beneath the table and poured

the drink.

I Davis squirmed uncomfortably and looked at his watch. He knew what It was to try to break away from a party like this. Not that he would have tried to break away or that It would have annoyed him under other circumstances. In fact h« could remember many Just such parties labia University life, and he was not at all averse to these •’slumming tours,” as they called them. But tonight, of all nights, he wanted to be able to go home and stay there. These people bored him with their silly, stupid chatter and their artificial gaiety. And It wasn’t good policy—not after the events of the day, anyhow. He looked at his watch again. Ten-thirty. He'd been gone an hour already. If he got away now he'd Just miss the theatre crowds and the congested traffic. And May would be waiting for him. It was Idiotic of Joe to have telephoned him—ho should have known better. Joe was a good sort—he meant •well, but be didn't have much sense, Davis tola hlmsdf savagely. If Joe wanted to have a goodjttmo— and he couldn't say he blamed him, not with that sharp faced, scolding wife of bis—It was all right. But as for himself, ho wasn't Interested. “Is there a telephone around here?” Davis asked abruptly, looking over the room. "Sure, back In that corner," Babbitt pointed to the end of the room where the piano, now ceasing Us labours for the moment, stood. "Just say you won't be home till morn-ing-important case,” be added, grinning. . . "Run along. Tapa. and do your phoning," Myra giggled. An,1 l b u T* ry right back. Mammas waiting

for you.”

Davis needed no Invitation to hurry He was already on his feel and starting for the telephone. He d call May and explain that he d been delayed a U ltle < aU(1 tlieu h* d l, ‘ lt

away if he had to fight his way out. “Well, Joe-y, your boy friend doesn't seem to cotton to our little party,’’ Vivienne smiled dryly, glancing at Myra with an “I-knew-you-couldn't-do-it" air. “Just watch mo, Vivienne—Just keep your eye on the birdie!” Myra retorted. “Mamma's gonna make Papa, or she'll know the reason why. Is he really so much married, Joey?” “Well, lie’s only been that way for three months. Give him time,” Babbitt told her. Three months! It only took me three months to decide I wanted a divorce," Vivienne put In. "But then, we nil haven't your lightning brain, darling,” Myra returned scathingly. “Round one!” Ollle I^e laughed. “Into your corners, girls. Into your corners, and remember, no hitting below the belt.’’ "Oh, shut up, Ollle,” Myra opened her vanity case and applied powder and lipstick with dexterous fingers. "Well, I might have known It,” Babbitt complained. “Might have known what, Joe-y?” Myra looked up from her toilette. “Might have known that tf I Introduced you to Kd Davis I wouldn't have a look-in. Ed always was like that—girls are crazy about him.'’ “He's got ‘It,’ Joe-y, dear,” Myra returned. "But don't cry. I'm not crazy about him—Just curious. I'd like to know whether all this In-love-wlth-hls-wlfe ami on-the-wagon stuff Is real, or whether It's a lot of hokum. After 1 find that out—well, I'll probbaly lose Interest.” "All right, hop to It, and blessing# on you, my children. Ed's probably making his excuses now." At the other end of the room Davis dropped a coin In the pay telephone and called his house number. He waited, listening to the ring. May would be sitting right beside the phone. He'd better say that the whole thing had been a mistake and that he'd he back right away. No need telling May that he had been dragged In on a party. She might think it had been done purposely. Then he heard his wife's voice on the other end of the wire. He held his hand to his free ear to shut out the sounds of voices. "That you, May?...Yes, Ed... Yes, listen, darling, there was some mistake about the call...No. nobody hurt at all somebody Just got scared.. .Yes, 1 know...” "Oh, then you’ll he home right away, dearest,” May's voice came over the telephone. ‘Til be homo Just ns soon as I can make It,” Davis answered. "Do you still love me, darling?” "Sweetheart, you know I do. I’ve been sitting here ever since you left, Just thinking about you.” "Dear girl!” Davis breathed a sigh of relief and murmured sweet nothings Into the mouthpiece. Everything was set—all hut making the break and It wouldn't bo necessary for May ever to know anything about the call. "But Ed, dear, how did they happen to call you?” May questioned. "I don't know, darling, except that they found my name In the phone hook.” "All right; hurry homo and tell me all about It, won't you? Do you love mo, dear?” "I'll tell you all about that when I see you,” Davis laughed, still thanking his lucky stars. But he did not notice that right nearby a sailor, slightly half-seas over—a condition that had nothing to do with the briny deep- was fumbling lu his pockets. At last the sailor produced two nickels and began searching for the slot of the piano. He could overhear part of Davis's conversation over the unprotected phone. He rolled his

eyes.

"rcl.

Oh, Gawd!" he mumbled. "Ain’t

love grand!”

The vibrant strains of "Darktown Strutters' Ball” rang out over the

room.

CHAPTER IX “Ed! What on earth's that!” May's voice came through sharply, questlonlngly. At her end of the wire she could hear the music almost as plainly as though It were In her living room. "That? Why—oh—what?" Ed looked about frantically, trying to signal someone to shut off the music. He clapped his hand over the mouthpiece, knowing quite well what It was that May was referring to. "Ed! Where are yml?” May was becoming insistent. "Why, darling. I'm—I'm at the patient's house—the patient 1 waa called to *ci4" Davis reached his hand around and tried to find a lever that would shut off the music. His fingers touched something that felt like a plug He pushed it. A violin supplemented the piano. "Now I’ve done It!” he groaned. • “Ed. what 1s that music?” “Why- -uh—er—” (To be continued.J
