Upon hii arrival little later the

putting her own affiiri out of her
mind to make room for the petty
troublei of otheri. but when ihe iaid
casually: "And now ai I won't be
able to go we'd belter ditcusi your

caught my breath in iheer amiement
then turned upon her indignantly.
"Rita'i affair indred!" I stormed
"Do yo'i think I'm going to permit

about a ii'eless piece of ftippery like

the tudden look of disappointment in
her face "ichool tomorrow you
know"
"I know." she replied "and you've
been wonderful to stay I won't av
anything more about the costume to-

to me" ihe imiied affectionately at
me "if no one at that aflair out-

she laid with relief. "He'll be too

Her off-hind characteriration trou-
bled me ai I traveled homeward. It
wasn't the firit time I had heard this
criticism of my husband'l garrulous
nature from Lillian'! lipi and there
wai alwayi a feeling of diiloyalt to
him in listening to the atrictura with-
out objection. Yet there wai nothijig

that the had ipoken naught live the

But I had another ind deeper
cause for worry. If Dicky designed
a costume for me and I didn't wear
it I wai afraid thit he would be
justly grieved and angry. I had not

wished to bring not even the imilleit

it wai 1 problem which loomed

For this reason I am afraid. I
