m/gtakan, but he -had read my
ated; only anzgiety held place in
my mind. I would ilnore last
night until he was his own dear
self once more; then I would talk
with him about things--how I felt
toward pool rooms and drinking.
‘\All right." By his tone I
knew he hadbeen awoke. that I
had been mls-esken when I eup~
pqged llllll  _
Ag aiwayswhen he drank, he
ate nothing. 'hut_.dr'ai1l¢ his coffee.
"How was Marisol" I asked.
"Just the anime os always."
“What did she want, or can'_t
1 know!" I asked, -trying to make
, joke of my question, but long-
ing for an answer. _
"She wanted to see me."
"Obi" I could not help the ex-
clamation. I had thought' he
would give soma reason for her
even though he did not

"Why, Robert. I have faith in
you. I always have and I love

he was hurting me.
"A pile you do! ._ You are, sorry
for me. sorry  am incompetent,

“So you think Marlon has

"I never discuss you tlvltb any-

disnity.
"Thank you for that, Robert.

know you talked of me with an-
other-woman . "

ert would 'be out-and not with
her. But I would make an op-
Iwrtuuitv. if I took my lunch
hour. Yes, that was what I
would do! I would beg her to
give me luncheon, tell he Robert
had bragged of her food. etc., etc.
I felt better after I decided to
see Marion. and kept my mind on
my work through the day. I was
to meet Robertat a ,restaurant
not far from the shop. and I asked
Mary Ryan to join us at dinner.
"Robert isn’t _quite himself these
days, Mary. You will do him
good." '
‘iNow what has he been up to?"
"Pool rooms, for one t-hing.” _
“Tho dlckens he has! Gerry,
you musn't let him get 'tho habit.
Does he play for money?"
"Yes, and wins, _go ho says?"
“Worse and more of it! If he
would lose his boots it would be
the -best thing could happen. If
he wins, lie'~g lost."
Mary had a philosophy for every-
thing in life. '.
A VISIT
CHAPTER 78.
I wondered If .Mary were right,.
and It would have -been better had
Robert lost instead of winning at
the pool room. Really I -thought
it made no difference. I-t was
-t-he fact that he spent his time
there, that he drank, and the sort
of men he met in such a place,
that worried me.
I did not forget my determina-
tion -to go to see Marion Hovey.`
I had salad nothing more about
his visit to Robert. and he had
not mentioned lt. He had come
home _early the nex-t‘ night, -but
the night- afterward he had again
been late. and had not dined with
ms. He .had telephoned me at
the shop.
"i am going to eat with some
ol -tho boys tonight," he said, "so
don’t expect me." Then he had
rung off before I could make any
reply. »» _ _ 4 '
stomlch." - 
in spite of my acorn..I was-
more anxious, more troubed, than'
-ever I had been `-before. Did
<Robert lake his worries to her?
Had he told her of the ~reason|
he would not eat in the boarding
house? Did she know that he did
not earn enough to pay for my
food as -well as his own, so in-I
slated upon eating where and
what he pleased without consult-
ing me? It was unbearable tha-tl
-she should know all these ‘things
so intimately our own. l
Suddenly I came to a decision.
I would go and aes Marion I-Ioveyf
at the iirst opportunity. I would
get her to talk of Robert. I
wou-ld iind out how much she
knew, what she -was to him. It
might be some time before I,
co_uld iind an evening when Rob~'

» I supposed by* "some of the
boys" lie meant the clerics in the
store. It rather surprised me
as he hadtalkod as if -they were
not at all interesting ‘ and rather
beneath his notice.
I asked Madame if I might
leave early. Grudgingly she gave
consent. I made excuse of an
errand in Marion's vicinity; -then,
fortliiled with that excuse, I_calied
at her home.
She opened the door herself.
Her surprise was evident, but she
received me graciously.
“I had an orryand in -the neigh-
borhood, and thought I would run
in .for a moment,” I told her.
“I have -been intending to come
for ever so long. But I have been
so awfully busy at the shop, then
wlth Robert evenings, that I
haven’t really had any time to
myself.”
"Lt is"your busy season, isn’t
it?"
"Yes, we are rushed to death.”
“So Robert told me.”
She had introduced Robert’s
name herself, so helping me along.
"Yes, we have been doing more
business than ever -before I have
sold so many hats I have almost
stopped .trying to keep track of
them-. Robert told me he cal-led
the night before last. _ You are
so good to him. and he enjoys
coming here so much. , I-Ie is sl-
ways raving over your cooking,
and what a fine housekeeper you
are."
- lknew I was exaggerating a
bit. It had been a long time since
Robert had raved over anything,
especially over .Maron. He sel-
dom mentioned heir, save .to say
he had been 'there.
Marion -blushed a little.
"Yes, Robert ig 'fond of good
things to eat. I know the things
he likes. because he came here
often when_dad was alive, and
before you were married."
“He's terribly fond of you. If
I were the Jealous klind, I should
forbid his coming -here."
.“l don’t think he would obey
you," sho smiled. “I-le likes to.
come too well." She had spoken'
calmly. just as she would had
Robert been her brother. I was
not making much headway, yet I
scarcely knew how to say more,
then: , ..
"i do wlsh you would send him,
straight home when he leaves
you. lt was after three when he
came in the other nlgbt.’f' _
"After three! Surely you didn't

"Oh, no!" I interrupted. "I
know he wssn’t hero ali that time.
I cautioned liim that lt, would com-
promise you if he, a murried

me with wonder and indignation!
There was something else too. A
sort cf guity feeling. Was I hear-
ing the truth, or was' it only the
raving of a woman 'In ‘love with
Robert? `
“How dare you .talk to me like
this I" I demanded, my .face burn-
ing. “I ruined him! why all I ever
have done is to try tofhelp him."
"In your own way- yes. You
never have -tried in his way-even
when you were first. married."
"I don‘t know what you mean."
"Come back and sit down, Mrs.
Meredith. You may never wish -to
.see me, or speak to me again, but
I am going to tell you tihe truth.”
Almost without volition I fol-
lowed her back to the living room.
I did not wish to hear any more.
I felt I ihated hen' as she stood
'blaming me for R0berL's inade-
quancy. _ -
"I love your husband, Mrs, Mere-
dith, I have always loved Robert I
think. He used to be here agreat
deal, and I could not help knowing
how time he was. Father lhted him
too. I know be always' wished Bob
would care for me. But he never
did-not then. He was just like a
brother in his treatment od me
Then he met and married you, and
father died. Robert was unhappy
almost from' the time you came
-back from your wedding -trip. Oli,
don’t think he ever said so-then.
But I could see a change in him
almost at once."
“A change? What kind ol a
change?" I had to wet my lips be-
fore I could speak.
"It was a trifl-ing one perhaps,
but he suddenly stopped -talking oi
what lm intended to do, of his wish
to get on. He had always been very
enthusiastic over his work; had
planned over and over how some
day he wouild start a little shop of
his own, and work It up into a big
business.”
"Well, what else?"
"I hate to tell you, but--one even~
ing Robert came there. He had been
drinking. Ile talked more than I
ever hail -heard him. Thoy say n
man who has been drinking, tel-is
the truth. Ho -solid he had panned

“You look nice 'all right. But

princely salary."
"Don‘t Robert! Please be nlce to-
night." I felt that I should cry in
a -minute. The lack of sleep. the
emotion, my unhappy day full of
unpleasant thoughts, had left me in
a nervous state which I determined
to hide so that Robert might enjoy
the evening. And the very thing
I hoped would please him had only
brought bitterness.
"Come on, I'm ready” was his
answer.
We dined simply at a restaurant
about half -way between oiu' home
and the Weed’s. Then we walked
the remaining distance. Robert had
chatted amiabiy through d»Inne`r,
and the walk in the fresh air
had quleted my nerves.

it is the prevailing supposition that all well-known brands oi ilour are -
about the same in quality and-that one is just as good as another lor
baking.
This ie entirely wrong. The baking qualities of any flour depend on
the scientific blending of the classes of wheat used. and the skill and
care exercised in its manufacture.
"Beaver Flour" is made from the choicest Ontario Winter Wheat,
scientifically blended with Western Hard Wheat. It has all the good
qualities of both in such proportions that it produces bakinge of fine,
even texture yet with body enough to be substantial. _
The flavor produced by “Beaver Flour” is that rare, nutlikc “home-
made” taste, so much sought alter by all who enjoy good things to eat.
“Beaver Flour” will improve your bakings. Try itl Sold by your
grocer.
