"THEIR MARRIED LIFE"

Helen walked slowly from the sub
way station and up the steps of the
apartment house on the corner. She
did not feel well and the temptation
to stay at home and not attend the
bridge party had been almost too
much for her, but she had succumbed
because she knew how hard it was
to fill in at the last moment.
Mrs. Stevens was entertaining, her
annual affair, as she laughingly put
it, and Helen knew that she really
ought to go. Somehow, she never en
joyed as much a meeting of the
women she used to know exclusively
ns the more entertaining and less for
mal people she had met more re
cently.
Helen had somehow drifted away
from the old crowd, for the Bells
and Frances and Anne, with their
hail-fellow-well-met attitude, had
somehow taken possession of her and
she admired each and every one be
cause they did things.
Helen purposely did not hurry. The
women who had come in with her
finished their prinking and went out,
and just as she was about to follow
them a woman came in and began to
unfasten the frogs of a very hand
some afternoon wrap.
"Why, Laura Wilson," she ex
claimed delightedly, "how are you?
It seems just years since I have
talked to you." Helen in her ex
citement had forgotten to speak of
Laura as married and called her by
her maiden name instead.
Laura turned as Helen spoke and
responded to her greeting wearily.
"Hello, Helen," She said not en
thusiastically, "you are a stranger,
and I guess it's my fault. I have
been too busy to know anything for
the past two years or to see any of
my old friends."
Everything Is Different
"I have been going to call on you,"
Helen went on, trying to smother the
little hurt that Laura's manner left,
there. In the old days Laura had
come to Helen in most of her dif
ficulties and bits of unhappiness.
Ileien remembered distinctly Laura's
life when she had been a stenogra
pher at S2O a week and had lived In
two rooms in an uptown apartment,
taking her meals at cheap table
d'hotes.
She had owed Helen then for sev
eral of the blt3 of sunshine that had
come Into her life. Helen remem
bered how often she had had her up
to dinner, and one night in particular
when she and Warren had taken her
1o see one of the seoson's successes.
Warren had been a darling that night.
And then out of the skies had come
I .aura's transformation. She was
going to marry her employer, a man

TUESDAY EVENING, '
Helen knew slightly and who had
great wealth.
The unimportant Laura, who had
worked as a stenographer In an of
fice, seeing only the drab things In
life, utterly embittered more by her
lack of friends than her lack of funds,
was to become the wife of a million
aire, who was to have her own house
on Madison avenue and all the money
that she could possibly use.
It all came back to Helen as she
stood there and looked anxiously Into
Laura's face. Laura had never been
a handsome woman, but she had been
attractive in a way. Happiness had
made her bloom suddenly and as the
wife of the important Mr. Richards
she had very qupickly hcanged from
the Helen used to know.
The two women had tried at first
to keep up a part of their friendship,
but it was too difficult. Laura had
become engrossed with the society life
that took possession of her and, even
though the two had a strong bond In
common, their children, even that
fact seemed to make very little dif
ference. Mr. Richards, who had been
a widower. had one little girl, Joan,
but she was older than Winifred and
the intimacy between the two children
had been forced.
Helen looked at her closely, the
French gown, the look of careful
grooming and the petulant mouth and
tired eyes.
"Laura," she said, softly, "I wish
| you would feel that I am still your
friend, still the same Helen. You can
tell me things, you know, even If we
haven't seen each other in ages."
Laura Thaws a Bit.
"It is good to see you," she said,
drawing a long breath, "and I do
want to tell you things. When can
we have a long talk? Will you have
tea with me to-morrow in some quiet
spot?"
"Why not come up to see me? I
am still living in the same place, and
I'll have English muffins, just as we
used to, and we'll get acquainted all
over again."
Laura looked almost like her old
self as she said warmly, "How nice
that will be, Helen. You have done a
lot for me this afternoon, and I am
grateful, even if I don't show it."
Mrs. Stevens came down the hall at
the moment and put her head in at
the door.
"Oh, here you are, you two. We
are waiting to begin, and I couldn't
remember just who was holding us
up. Hurry up Helen, and, Laura,
what a perfectly heavenly gown that
is! I suppose It is French. It must
be great to have so much money."

everyday life will appear here SOOn.)
