THE EVEMURT STAR. WASHINGTON. D. C., WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1926.
THE EVENING STORY
The Other Couple.
BETTY CARLSON gazed around
the restaurant with happy
eyes. It did seem so nice to
be lunching away front home
with Amos, no bother of prep
aration, no messing with soiled dish
es afterward. And then one's appe
tite was always so much better when
one did not know what was coming or
how it was cooked.
Betty settled herself in her blouse,
freshly laundered for the occasion the
day before, and smiled across at her
husband, who was thoughtfully study
ing the menu card. There were a
good many men In the place, as her
cursory glance had revealed, but none
so nice looking as Amos. She did love
him when he was dressed up with
that little holiday air of well-being.
Amos had height and a thin boyish
ness of build that made him look bet
ter dressed than he was. The old
dear: He hadn't had a new suit in
ages. But. then, neither had she, for
that matter..
"Well." said Amos, returning her
smile, "they’re having baked ham to
day. How does that strike you. dear?”
"Fine:" Betty glowed. It did not
occur until she had spoken that, she
was not so very fond of ham In any
form, hut Amos was. so it was all
right.
Amos gave the order and while
they waited consulted a time table.
They were not going home until the
evening train, so they could take in a
matinee after Amos had finished the
business which had brought them to
the city, and she had to do a bit of
shopping.
There was a tiny hustle at the next
table and another couple sat down.
Obviously they. too. were from out of
town, but they arrived, without doubt,
in their car, for the man was slipping
a pair of driving gauntlets into the
pocket of his modish ulster. He was
young and rather handsome and
dressed in the best of everything. The
woman matched him. except that she
was a little more of everything than
he was—a little younger, a. little bet
ter looking, a little more expensively
dressed.
"1 don't like this place." Betty
heard her say. "It's common. I
would much prefer the Bostwick.
\*nu never do anything I want, Mar-
Tin."
“This is a good enough place to
suit me,' replied the man. "They give
you enoußh to eat. too. That's some
thins you can't depend on at the
Bostwick.”
"No music except a phonograph, no
service—what’s on the menu?” She
glanced at it. and laid it aside with an
indifferent lifting of her exquisitely
trimmed eyebrows.
"This baked ham looks good to me,”
said Marvin. “That’s what I’ll have.
What for you, Claire?”
"The chicken salad is very nice,”
suggested the waitress.
Claire shrugged her shoulders and
remained quiet.
"Chicken salad, oh?” queried her
husband..
"Oh. I don’t care. I tell you I am
not hungry.”
“You might state your preference,
at least.” Marvin shot her an incensed
look.
The waitress withdrew. Claire, tap
ping the table with glittering nails,
hummed provokingly.
"Now you can come down to earth,"
Marvin said savagely. “If it's that
dress at Gifford’s you're acting up
over, I’ll tell you right now you can
not have it. Ninety dollars is too
much to pay for a rag covered with
beads."
"If I can't have that dress,” Claire
said tensely. “I won't go to the Rath
burn's with you Friday night. See if
I do."
There was a big silence.
"Now, see here, Claire,” the man
said, “you know just what will hap
pen if you don’t got Mrs. Rathburn
will never forgive you and her hus
band. being my boss, will take it out
on me.”
"I don’t care if he does. I don’t
have to go there, anyway. They’re a
pair of old frumps.”
“They're good people and I don't
know where I'd he now if it wasn’t
for old Rathburn."
“I know where I wish I were now,”
said the woman with deadly intent.
Their food arrived and produced a
diversion. So,also had Amos' order.
Betty tasted the ham and to her sur
prise found that it was delicious, quite
a new flavor. She beamed across at
Amos.
"Something like, eh?" he beamed
hack at her. "We’re in luck today,
dear.. I just stumbled on this place to
eat. too.”
He began to devote himself to his
plate, and Betty had a chance to hear
more of what was going on at the
next table. She was becoming mildly
excited. Claire was picking at her
salad with the most provoking air of
getting what she wanted or nothing,
and the man. his meal spoiled for him,
was scowling into his plate.
"ißook here. Claire,” he said at last,
“you're getting me up against it! I
can’t afforn to get that dress for you.
It’s all I can do to squeeze along on
my salary now. Next thing I’ll have
to borrow money, and once that be
gins—l—’ He made a finite gesture.
"I can’t help it if you do. I am'not
going to pinch. You had no business
to get married if you couldn’t sup
port your wife Recently.”
"But I do Support you decently,
don’t I? Only when it comes to S9O
dresses you don't need. I’ve got to
draw the line.” He rubbed his fore
head despairingly. "I've got m.v side,
you know. Claire. I thought you'd
play the game.”
She was silent.
* "If you aren't going to play the
game,” said Marvin desperately,
"what s the use? Come, be reason
able, Claire, for heaven's sake! Do
you want to ruin nie? Don’t you care
a hang what becomes of me?"
“Hush!” she said coldly. “Some
body will hear you. You are shouting
like an Indian."
He said no more, hut ate what he
could of his luncheon In abstraction.
But It was evident that he was think
ing terribly. Betty trembled with anx
iety. Would he give in to Claire?
Or would he he man enough to stand
out for what he knew was right?
"Oh. I hope he stands out,” she
thought.
A few minutes later, leaving his
lunch half finished, the man arose.
The woman also arose.
"Seriously. Marvin." she said, "I
mean to have that gown at Gifford’s." 1
"I see we've come to a showdown,"
he said quietly. “You can't have that
dress. And you are going to behave
yourself and go to the Rathburns
Friday night. That's straight. I am
going honest no matter what comes."
He strode out and she followed him
with astonishment and, yes, ad.mira
tion horn in her eyes. Her lord had
spoken like a master.
Bett.V's gaze came back to Amos.
He, too. was looking after the de
parting couple.
"Nice-looking congenial pair,” he
said. "How do you like her hat. dear?
t wish I had money to dress you that
way. Eh?” He drew a long breath.
Careless of others Betty leaned for
ward and touched his hand.
"Oh, don't say that!” she replied
earnestly. “T wouldn’t be that wom
an for anything on earth."
"Why, what's wrong with her?”
Amos said stupidly. Manlike, he had
been intent on his dinner and hadn't
heard a thing.
Betty’s blue eyes were misted with
emotion.
"She doesn't understand that mar
riage has got to he a 50-50 proposition
right straight through." she said.
"Think. Amos, if I should insist on
your getting me a S9O dress.”
Amos smiled at her tenderly. “But
you wouldn’t.'' he said.
