GO ON WITH STORY
'T'HAT evening the Ames home was
more like a grave than anything
else. Lila wandered from place to
place. She was beyond comfort.
Finally she came ami sat down
beside me.
.She had been pacing the long liv

owy corner, watched her and nt
fered with her, for 1 too had a sense
of loss. I felt that even if Tom came
back there was something I had
lost. For there had been a time when
he could not have put our affaii so
firmly aside for something else. I
was hurt and I was ready to sym
patjijy.e with Lila, who too had jimt
disbrfvetcd her loss.
“Helga,'’ she said as she sal down

Price or Value
«
»
Price is the question of a moment—
Value, a proof of worth.
People who buy solely by the figures
on the price tag often pay dearly for
the service rendered. People who con
sider value frequently find it cheaper
in the end pay slightly higher prices
for a far greater amount of service
received. Our prices are low when
quality is considered.

Letters to lovers

FOOL OR HYPOCR'TE?
A NAIVE betrayal o r how her
emotions can trick a woman is
eontained’in this bit of war after
math :
“Since my husband returned from
France, he has had letters from an
American widow who was overseas
in some kind of war work,” explains
A WAR BRIDE. “She is now in New
York. Her letters come to our home
when they might as well go to my
husband’s office.
“ ‘That woman sends them here to
get me into trouble with, you,’ says
my husband.
“Now the widow virtuously refuses
to give him her present address;
nevertheless, she has. just sent him
that of another girl whom they both
knew in Paris. My husband is both
annoved and disgusted. Sincerely so
—I know him so well! Plainly he
could easily get into correspondence
with ‘Mona Marion,’ if he cared to.”
the intruder.
Let’s interrupt right here, for an
aside. Women whose husbands and
sweethearts became romantically in
terested overseas often complain bit
terly because they were so complete-
Iv forgotten. But there's comfort in
that, fact. Just as the man forgot her
for the foreign girl, so now he has
completely forgotten the foreign wo
man for her! Unless he is pursued

SATURDAY. OCTOBER 1, 1921
T can't give you my address becau e
I don’t want you to write to me. It

understand. Just know I am as al
ways- Mona Marion.’
“Now 1 want to know just what a
wife is supposed to ‘understand'
when aWtiher woman pesters her
husband with mail? Am I prudish and
narrow-minded because 1 resent
Mona Marion’s pursuit of the man I
married before she ever saw him?
“If she were truly a high class in.
dividual, as one is l accustomed to
think of war workers, why does she
remind the father of my children
that she is always—‘Mona Marion?
“A m 1 a fool? Or is she a hypo
crite?”
This letter is a positive joy to the
student of human emotions. So also
is the intelligence of the little wife
who refuses to be tricked. She com
prehends intuitively the hypocrisy of
intruder.
Mona Marion’s “innocent” lettei to
another girl’s husband is a splendid
exhibit of the folly in which her de
sire can snare a woman.
Subconsciously, Mona Marion
wishes ardently to hear from the man
who was her friend in Paris. She ac
tually wrote with the intention of
tempting him to correspond. She
placed all her cards so that the man
could see, and play her game. She
reminds him of her unalterable
friendship— while protesting that
she doesn’t want to hurt his wife!
The lady doth protest too rffiueh;
Some psychologists would say that
her case simply proves. -<lfiee more,
hew human beings delight in deceiv
ing themselves.
But a few, of sterner philosophy,
exalt will as an important ingredient
of normal humans.
Tried by this standard, Mona
Marion is a conscious intriguer who
knows better than to trespass on an
other wcVnan's rights— and who
should be treated accordingly.
