"For Heaven's sake, don't be so tragic I have never cared for that house down in the country and I see no reason why you should keep it just to provide a resting place for your mother's maid." "Keep still, John. I don't want to fezl more exasperated and more dis- appointed in you than I am." John looked up as though to speak { again, but'1 held up hand. "I don't know just en the time came, John, when you first began to grow tired of me, but I think, per- haps, it was when you found out that [I was a real human being instead i of the plaything you evidently had meant me to be. Something with no mind you thought me, except as 1 reflected yours; and no ambition, except that which might belong to a petted cat that would purr as it basked in the wormth of youn smile." Katharine, Going to Tell the Truth, "Oh, yes, know," I-.gaid, as I noted the grey look come over his face and the smile of sarcasm trans- | form his mouth into a thing' of ugli- | ness. "You are thinking that I am | still posing as an abused angel, but | won' t you please just for once take ime as honestly saying exactly what I think. Won't you try to under- stand? For I am going to tell you the plain truth, even if it is not put into the plain, ugly language which you often have used. John, I don't think you ever have loved me. I think' the woman you have really cared for is Elizabeth Moreland." '""Are you going back to that, again?" "Stop! Hear me out--for upon what I am saying and upon what you shall decide depend our future lives. I do not know just what it is that attraots a man momentarily ;that takes him off his feet. I do not know why it is that some women will have this attraction for some men and leave others cold, but I do know, John, that I have given you that strange magnetic thrill. I konw that the first time you met me you felt it as1 did, and from then until our marriage you thought of nothing ex- cept that I should belong to yor. But after all, John, you and I have very little in common. I can not be hypocritical, I must be frank. You in your brutally masculine way have overruléd and overrun all the wo- menfolk you have had about you. It has ahnoyed you greatly when I, the first woman you have ever known to do so, have stood up to you, hold- ing my own even though your blows always reached my heart. I receiv- ed this letter the other day. If you look you will see thh#it is addressed I do not know .whether Elizabeth * Moreland intended me to You know that have this lettet, and sent it to me this way purposely, or whether she was writing to you at the same time and got the notes mixed. But it was just after my child was born, Johan, and I made up my mind that I"would | come here and fight for my owi. Then, if I found that you still want- ed her, more than you wanted me, determined I should take my baby and go away, back to that little hav- en of rest which had come to 'me from my mother, and to her from her mother, and on back through generations that I have hardly count- ed. It belonged to me and mine. But you have taken this refuge from me with a cruelty that might be thoughtless, but which you must have known would be barbaric in its torture of me if you had stopped tp think at all on the subject." John had not read the letter, and I said to him, "Read it!" He open- ed {t mechanically. He turned ashen as he read the first line. And then he looked at me and said, "At least ohé woman has loved me, even though she knew that I did not love her.' "Do you mean to tell me, John Gordon, with that letter in your hdnd, that you do not love Eliza- beth Moreland?" Mgther for His Children. "Of course I don't. I guess I have been born without the power to.love any woman. The nearest I have come to loving one was in loving you. You mean. to me what I want. A woman to be the mother of my children. A woman to grace my home. A woman who can give evidence of my prosperity. That Elizabeth Moreland never could do. Wha are you going to do; Kath- arine? You are not foolish enough to make a scandal at this late day. Perhaps you are only looking for something that will give you an ex- cuse to get rid of me. You know that I could make it uncomfortable for you if I put a copy of those let- ters from Karl Shepard in any di- vorce proceedings that you might constitute," "How little you understand wo- men, John. If anything would make me get a divorce that threat would do it.' "Then you won't get a divorce?" he asked eagerly. "Not if you dacced to my terms. I shall never live with you as your wife again unless something mater- fally changes my views. Good night, John, I am tired." I did not sleep, and it was the next morning at the breakfast table when I looked across at John, stolid- ly reading his paper as if nothing had happened ,that'I found myself wishing hat he were dead. .
