uf course. there wuh it maid In the
kii< Im ii, I >u t I lurry never doubted for
ii moment ili.it ii was his bride, Molly,
who reull.v made It possible for these
w oiwlers to Im* cvol ved.
Nuw, Molly 1 1 1 1 > I ii lion I us much nin
fhlence In her own nliilliy in the kltuh
<n ns Harry laid. although nhe had
never been put severely to the test,
where everything ? t > *p? ? 1 1 < l? >< I upon her
alone. So, when liridget's first day out
arrlvi'd. she and Hurry both looked for
ward to it us u sort of lurk. Ax they
were < I r 1 1 1 U 1 1 1 k their eoftee that morn
ing, 1 1 m ? following conversation took
place :
"Now don't go and try t * ? get up a
regular dinner tonight, honey. I'm eut
Intt too much, uii.swiiy. And I won't
have *\ nil gelling nil hok and tired
w orkiug cr stove !"
"That's very swvel of you. Hurry,
lull don't imagine that we can't huVO
dinner Jiisj bemuse Bridget is out. I
shall enjoy getting It. And 1 don't
think much of wives who set out cold
bites because they're lazy. You'll see!"
"All rigid, pel, suit yourself, but bo
ready on time, and if the dinner Is very
good, I might have something In my
pocket. If might bo tickets for the
Hippodrome !"
"Oh. how lovely! Of course I'll be
on time. Don't miss the early train!"
In the middle of the rfterhoon, Mol
ly descended to the kitchen, clad In a
neat blue linen dress, and tackh?d the
dinner.
About half-past five, Mrs. Wchster,
a near neighbor, who had made friends
at once with Molly, rang the bell of
the ('a its' house. Molly answered, sat
down with her culler, and upijlogl&ed
for her dress. Hut she was s??"iivident
ly nervous and left the 'oom so many
times on one excuse or another that
her experienced friend t>egan to realize
that something must be wrong with the
kitchen arrangements.
At last the truth came out and Mol
ly explained her predicament, between
tears and laughter.
"Why, Mrs. WcbSter," she cried, "It
novi'r oceutred (o m?* I ??? r??l? I n't get a
whole dinner nlinic! I've done lots
of cooking !"
"Come 011 out ami let's see now hud
it is." suggested Mrs. Webster.
It dill seem miller hopeless. tin the
tables hiy a fierce looking collection ? ? f
vooking utensils and dishes, all soiled.
Mrs, Webster peered into everything,
while Molly explained. Mock bisque
soup being Harry's favorite, she had
decided upon that, and had made it
early to have it out of the way. There
It stood on the hack of the stove, .a
line curdled mess, "keeping hot."
The ro:i-i beef v)n> had put on j: >? >d ,
and early in the new double roar er,
laboring under the delusion that the'
invention nl>so|\ed one from giving any '
further at tent ion to the meat, A glance
ui it. before her neighbor's arriv- i
al. had re\ealed a liille. drieibup. hard !
I'iece of beef, utterly uritit to serve. |
Molly ami Mrs. Webster looked at!
each other a moment and then cleared I
the at niosphere bv laughing imniod- 1
erately. When Molly could get her ,
brea ( h. she said :
"What shall I do? of course, my
pride is hurt, and I hate t<> tell llarry,
bill I suppose 1 must."
"Why tell him that you tried to get
a dinner at nil? lie has suggested the
theater, you suj\ It would be most
natural for you to have a light supper
to save trouble, as you may be going
out."
"Hut I told him this morning I
didn't mind the trouble, nml lhal_I
was going to get dinner."
"Never mind. People sometimes 1
change their minds. I don't want to
corrupt your morals, but 1 advise you
to do as 1 say. If you will, I can help
you out."
Molly nodded assent.
"Hood : Now, what salad have you
got?"
"Lettuce and tomato."
"Couldn't be better. Any canned i
soup in t he house?"
"Only ready-made tomato."
"The very thing! Haven't you
learned the secret of putting hot milk
and a bit ?>f butter to that just before
serving? Very likely It will be mis
taken for your own brand of bisque."
"CIreat ! You're a wonder, Mrs. Web
ster."
"No. just an old housekeeper. Now,
I've got cohl ham and 11 cream cheese
I can spare, and I'm going to send
them over. If by nny chance you have
your dessert, don't you see thut with
a i>ot of coffee you'll have a delicious
and hearty supper, after all?"
At 6:80 Harry was met at the door
by a smiling bride. He held up an en
velope, teaslnglv, high above her head.
"Do I get some food, or do we stay
at home tonight? No nice dinner, 110
Hippodrome, you know."
"I guess I can get dressed in time,"
said Molly demurely, and, hand In
hand, like two children, they went into
the dining room.
As Harry took the last swallow of
the deiuiou*. piping-hot coffee, he re
marked ;
"Bully supper, Molly. Took my ad
vice, after all. didn't you? I'm glad
you didn't suend the afternoon fussing
over a hot <i7nrW."
Molly smiled at hlni across the table.

ONE WAY OUT

"Oh, ,v<iti*i'v 1 it for a romance, Dick."
"I ciiii i *?? m ? it ii \ romance where n
penullcMs youth t:?iN in love with ill*

Dick.
"Things <|d look durTt." admitted
Jerry. "Hut .1 Nt' seen joti save the

you'll coiiu-nui ?>i this tangle With col

"Vou get out ? I ' vti got Mil Ideal"
Dick alino.si \ ? ? 1 1 ? ? ? 1 . and his glittering
c) i' told .l? ri \ thai a prodigious plan
w as forming iu his i ii i i id.
l''or the iii'\i mount, w hi io /vnne
Morrison danced and motored itud
golfed, and while Jerry Dayton did
Ikewlse, Dirk Stanford kept to Ids in
at) ranee oflicc l>\ da> and to ids apart
'.mi'u t hy night until Jerry gave up try
,ng to draw 1 1 1 1 1 1 into social life or to
tl ?*ii W" from him tin1 secret of ids night
ly labors. At the etid of a month, how
I'ver, Jerri's curiosity and his vanity
were gratified hy nil Invitation (o
Dick's apartment to he the audience
?>f one to hear the tlrst reading of
Dick's play entitled, "Out at the Tun
s'
"Hully for you, old boy !" and "Kleh
II I'd, you'll hack the dramatized best
Hellers off the boards," were coinnieuls
that came from the delighted Jerry
during the first ^part of tln^ muling,
but later lie protested: "Oh, come now,
Dick, whoever heard of a rich uncle
from Alaska turning up to back ail im
pecunious nephew in a. scheme to Urlv,e
his prospective father-in-law to the
wall as a means of making hiui suc
cumb gracefully to the relationship?"
"And whoever heard of people going
to the theater to see something they've
heard all about every day of their
lives'/" retorted Dick.
"I throw up my hands!" Bald Jerry,
making un exaggerated demonstration
of his acceptance of defeat. "On with
the play !"
Dick did go on with the play, und
the play went on the boards almost Im
mediately, bringing so much money
1 ti f ? ? the box ofliee and such Mattering
offers to lis author that he was soon In
sight of atlluence. Dick began to hope
that he dared approach Anne Morri
son's hopelessly rj.rh father as a pros
pective soii-iieflTw, but it was Jerry's
unhappy lot to knock those hopes Hy
ing.
"Old man, I've got some rotten news
for you." said Jerry, us he rounded a
corner of a shady country bine, wlilther
he bar! taken Dirk for u Spin in a re
markably new yellow car. "Our com
pany is closing a ileal with lCllhu Mon
tague for that big lot adjoining the
Morrison home in Huntley place, which
seems like a continual ion of all those
reports that Aune and old Monragtie
: re engaged."
"You're a regular storehouse for
comforting I hoiiL'li: s. Jerry."
"Tie ..t!i r elje- k. please," said
Jerry, v.. mo. k humility, but smiling
so benignly that Dick laughed in spite
of bis dejection. "I'm making myself
t he bearer <>f unpleasant tidings to
give \ nu a last chance to go in and
w in."
"A great ehnuce I've cot to go iu
title] \\ i r i now," unit tered Dick.
"The smaller your chances the big
<>
ger your \ictory ? if you win. Chirp
up. old num. Don't you know tlmt
while there's life there's hope? If you
net. like a dead one, of course there's
no hope for you. I might add, inci
dentally, that tills deal will keep Mon
taguo here until next week, and if
you're the poor hut deserving lover I
take you to he, you'll cut in ahead of
him by spending this very week end up
where the Morrisons are summering
and where Montague has" been hanging
out a goodly number of week-ends."
"I'll let you and Anne. too. know
that I'm nom dead one. Will you" get
mo back to town right away. Jerry?"
With Jerry's aid Dick managed to
get the train, and the next morning,
on the hotel piazza in an Adirondack
resort, as Anne appeared, all in soft
white corduroy, he had the joy of see
ing pleased surprise In her eyes as she
hiushingly met his own -rapturous gaze.
She consented to show him the won
ders of the place, their Ilrst objective
point being a high point overlooking
a wonderful panorama of sturdy little
mountains.
"Don't you love it?" exclaimed Anne
blissfully.
"Love it? No ? I love \ou." said1
Djek in headlong recklessness. ' Anne,
Is there any hope for me? Once I did
hope a little, Anne, but I had nothing
then but a wealth of love to offer you.
I haven't great material wealth to offer
you now, but enough to begin on and
promising prospects. People are say
ing that you nro engaged to Ellhu
Montague, but t can't give von up
without telling you that neither lie nor
any other man could love you more
than I do."
"Why, Dick, Mr. Montague is going
to marry my mother's sister out in
Denver." said Anne in surprise. Then
she added, with a pretty little puut;
"If you hadn't been so busy becoming j
a famous playwright, you would have |
found out long ago that lurkim; in the:
wings and leaving the staire !?> other!
men Is no way to get n hcroit.e nut of
a tangle." *
"Do you mean thnt I may i my

"Yes." whispered Anne, and the
