It was the had arrived in third day after they } New York, and alse Ithe third day of Ruth's fruitless search for a place to live. They had finished dinner, and Ruth, utterly worn out, had slipped into a com- fortable kimona, and was lazing on the couch "Gc ahead, Brian, dear. But don't expect me to answer. I am tired to death. The perfectly awful places I have seen have given me a 'horrible headache." "All right. I'll do the talking. Now Ruth darling, there isn't any use pretending. We are poor, poor as church wice, and we have got to find a place to live in and get out of here. Cheap as it is, it is far more than we can afford for a while. To- morrow is Sunday. I will spend the day hunting a place. Then Monday we niust get a few things and move in, You can buy the fol-de-rols gradually. We'll get tite necessaries, and start housekeeping. Of course, Ruth, we won't be as poor as we are now very jong." "Of course we won't! Why, you'll soon have a big law practice, then we can get into a nice place and have Rachel." "Yes," rather impatiently. "But Ruth, I am afraid you will not be contented. You have seen many apartments just as good as any we can afford now, and you say they give you a headache. I should hate to come home amd find you always with a headache." Ruth laughed merrily. She really tirgd, really disgusted the places she had seen. But was also in love, also young enthusiastic. "Oh, I'l be happy, We'll fix up the place so prettily, on #lmost nothing at all, that you won't recognize it Only please don't take a place where there are cockroaches." was with she and ~ APART $ Rut betier Brian dear. jdo that way, 1 { yet, as he { Ruth the size of his income, h's idea of "nothing at all" ttle Yess than she had used her aunt's house.

Then she te- membered Wt Brian was not rich like Mrs. Clayborne, and said noth- ing. But it seemed to her that Brian talked a good deal about money, aad how careful they must be--for a while. She never had heard money discussed. It was there: she had used it. That was all there was io it. That made her think. Her pocket 'book was nearly empty. Her aunt had not given her a very large amwount---in line with her ideas of what Ruth would do when she found she had to economize--and it was nearly gone. Would ghe have to ask Brian for money? That would be unbearable Bui how else was sha to get it? She couldn't do mueh without money, especially in New York. "Are you going to give me an al- lowance to run the house?" she ask- ed. "I read a book, once, where a young couple like us got married and they divided the money the mar earned. So much for the rent, so much for clothes, so much to run the house, ste It was an awfully nice story. 1 recall, 4 read it aloud to Aunt Laura.

It had frigitemed him, a little. He doved Ruth passionately. He hated to deny her things to which she had been accustomed. He wouldn't have to, very long---just until he got a few good, paying cesses. But in the interim it would be hard to make her understand. He must be patient, #anday dawned bright and lovely. In high good spirits they set out io find a hom(. Someway, things look- ed different to Ruth with Brian along. The sordidness did not se=m quite so sordid, the dingyness of the cheap flats quite so dingy. About thee o'clock, after looking for hours, they found a little five-room apartment that Brian sald would have to do. The rent was thirty- five dollars a month. The entrance was neat, the apartment was up one flight of stairs. The janitor-- rather, the janitoress--seemed a good soul, and promised to do all &he. could to help Ruth. The rooms had been lately "done" and were clean. But Ruth's spirits sank as she heard the woman tell Brian that the owner would not re. paper for anybody. He had papered to suit the last tenant's, and then they had remained only three months, "But he won't mind ourselves Ruth asked "No, I don't guess he would mind if you done it yourself, but he won't do nothin' for nobody, so it ain't no use askin'." "We'll do them over in soft pretty colors, Brian. It won't be so bai then." Ruth shivered as she look- ed at the glaring colors that no amount of furnishing could tone down. \ Brian made no answer.
