"THE WIFE" By Jane: Phelps. CHAPTER CXX, | v Clayborne remained wih Ruth until the baby was over a month old. The day she left, Ruth returnéd to the shop, although her aunt had told her it was unneces- sary Mrs. Clayborne would gladly | have taken both Ruth and the baby { home with ker and cared for them. | But Ruth, aside from her feeling of loyalty to Briau, also was uneasy. She loved her Work, and found her- self longing to get busy again. Mr, Mandel has heen thost kind) £0 Mrs. Clayborne impressed upon Ruth. ' He had sent many flowers to both Ruth and her aunt, and when Ruth was able to go out, he had §ev-| eral times taken them to the opera.| "1 did enjoy fit, s6 much," Ruth sald to her aunt after one of these evenings at the opera, '"but it seems dreadful to enjoy one's self when B ~our boys are fighting and may he killed "Your moping at home won't help them It is needful for everyone to have a certain amount of pleasufe in their lives Goodness knows you have had little enough since you "1 have heen as gay as most in our circumstances." "That's just it! You had no busi- ness to be in those circumstances. am not saying a word against Brian as a man But as a provider for al family, he is decidedly inadequate.' Ruth made no reply What her aunt said was true. Brian, as a pro- vider, wae lUnadequate He would have another to work for when he came back---if he dd come back. | Someway; Ruth's thoughts of Brian were always "tinged with fear, Shel knew he had a reckless, vénturesome| spirit. She feared # would, lead him | into needless danger. When she read that the Americans could hardly he controlled, so anxious were they to be in the fighting, she always visug the boys rushing into danger, Ruth settled down into her old work at the shop, ®he first learned what had been done in her depart- ment during her absence, then, with renewed enthusiasm, gave the best of which she was capable to her em- ployer. She had nothing to worry her--if one excepted fear for Brian. Rachel was thoroughly competent to care for the baby, and also to do the simple housekeeping required, now that they were alone. Ruth hired a laundrass, but aside from that Rachel would have no 'help. "1 sholy can tak' care o' you, mis: sy Ruth, an yo' baby 100," ¢he had said when Ruth had expressed a fear that it would 'be too mueh for her to attempt. And as she saw no neglect anywhere--as the baby was well and wonderfully cared for, her own meals well-cooked and nourishing --she gradually left all the details of the home to Rachel, "Get what you lke," was her an- swer whenever Rachel consulted her as to the marketing, This freedothi from all care at home, gave her more strength to use in business. More land more did Mandel come to depend upon her, Much of his time was given to war- work. He had always been a gener- ous and philanthropic man, And now he gave himself as well as of this money, so making it necessary to lean more heavily upon his employees to run his business, La Monte had gone into a training camp, and. his work, to a great extent, devolved upon Ruth. But she made no com- plaint. Sometimes when she was un« usually tired, she would say to her- self: Lal apoplesy. lized Brian as one of the foremost if The condition © RUTH RETURNS TO THE SHCP Mandel had raised hér salary agaln when La Monte left --. "You will hay cinsidoniie more care, now that la Monie is gone, | he had told her. "it is only far that} you have more money. Then, living | expenses have advanced to a great extent, Be careful, though, that I don't put too mutch work on you. | You mast not get sick." "Work never makes me iH." she had responded, thereby telling bir | more than she meant to of the rea- | son of her oceasional illnesses before Brian left her. "It was worry ig cause of him," Mandel sald to him self after this conversation, The thought made him feel that soon he might win Ruth for his own; as such thoughts always did. Mandel! was not a bad man, le was really a good man. He thought Brian un- | faithfuly not worthy of Ruth, Hel hed thAdght her | | | unhappy with him, | and aMhough she now had a child] he (Mandel) would gladly have tak-| én baby and all at once. But as 1] have sald before, 'he was a patient] man," so he bided his time, making Ruth as happy as was possibe under the circumstances, Then came a letter from Brian) that turned Ruth's world upside down) again. | (To be Continued.)
