' 1 HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison's New Phase of Revelations of a Wife Why Madge Hesitated to Accede to ' Grace Draper's Request. "So terribly wronged." For a minute Grace Draper's pleading, anguished face vanished trom my vision, while over and over in my ears sounded the phrase she had just used for the second time since she had accosted me in the upper hall of the house I had come to inspect. What did she mean by this phrase, or rather what meaning did she ex pect me to glean from it. Did she intend me to believe I clenched my fingers into jny palms at the thought which had come to me. I had harbored it when I had received the letter she had written me In which she had used a similar ex pression. It was with an effort that I said: "What do you mean by terribly wronged me?" Her eyelids drooped quickly, cov ering her eyes for an instant before she answered. Again the insistent little doubt at the Dack of my brain forced itself upon me. Was she compelled to hide the expression of her eyes until she could be sure of controlling them? Was she deliber ately hiding them so I might gain the iinnression that she meant to conceal something? Or was her ac tion the result of an embarrassment, a shame, which was genuinely sway ing her? "You ought to know," she said at last, her voice broken, husKy, and in the pause before her next utter ance I imagined that the beating of my heart could be heard, so violently wns it thumping against my siac, You know how hard 1 tried vainly, of course to win your hus band from you, and how they said I tried to get him killed that time hts airplane fell. Hut they lied. I didn't I didn't, yet they put nic in. prison for it. Memory's Warning. No drooping eyelids now I Her eyes, imploring, anguished, looked straight into mine, almost compel ling a belief in her sincerity. Her hands were twisted horribly together, as if she had pulled them out of shape in their clutch one upon the other. I think I should have sur rendered utterly to her appeal if it had not been for a memory which There are Sc cigars for Sc. and there is "NEW CURRENCY" for Satisfaction. Sc, at all good cigar stores.

Again I stood beside the bed upon which Grace Draper lay apparently delirious and dying from her self-inflicted wound after her attempt to shoot Dicky. Again I listened to her ravings, and then to the unmasking of her pretended delirium by )r. I'ettit. And the voice with which she addressed me sounded as clearly in my ears as the words she had just uttered. "And you will never know, will you, Madgie, dear, just how much of what I have said was false and how much true?" Only One Request. , She had flung that barbed doubt of Dicky's truth at me when she was facing almost certain death. I had succeeded in pushing it so far down in my consciousness that rarely did J feel its sharp thrust. But her hesi tation, her hurried qualifying phrase, t "vainly, of course," dragged it jag gedly to the surface, and I knew that no matter what decision I made for or against her, the festering track of that old barb would remain with me. She was speaking again, and I could hardly believe that I was really listening to urace Draper, so humble, so broken the tired voice, whose tones once had been so clear and musical. "You can afford to be generous," she said sadly. "You have won all along the line. Look at the wreck of w hat I was, while you are prettier than ever, and your youth has not gone as mine has. And you have love and home and a child, which I shall never know. All I ask is par don from you, and the chance, to drag out my drab existence free from terror. Surely you can give, me those." Again there sounded In my brain a tiny note of warning. But it was faint, so light in the scale as com pared with the weight of the girl's tragic abased appeal, that I put it aside' and stretched out my hands impulsively toward her. Her pite ous contrasting of her lot with mine had broken down my last barrier. "My pardon I give you freely," I said simply, for in honesty I could not disclaim the truth that she had injured me almost beyond forgive ness. "And tell me how I can be of assistance to you." She caught my hands in hers and bent over them. I was afraid she meant to kiss them, and though I forgave her. I felt that I couldn't bear the touch of her lips. But hot tears, not kisses fell upon them, and I heard her broken murmers of thank fulness. When as last she lifted her head a look of quiet peace had suc ceeded the anguish which had been portrayed in her face. "The forgiveness means most to me," she said, and if ever sincerity showed in a face it appeared to speak from hers. "And there is only one bit of assistance that I need from you or shall every ask from you." mm ma, a.m. A touch of the old mockery twisted her ln:i. "That you call off your faithful Fidos."
