CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
THE PARLEY HAS BEGUN
1 waa awakened by a crash and
opened my eyea, to see the door
panel splintered and then IMck's
hand reach thru and turn the lock.
The »un was streaming In my
window*, no I knew It w&» early
afternoon. "Surely, my little tab
tot had done the work," I thought
lazily, and then the significance of
the crashing door dawned on me an
JHck atrode over to the bed.
Margie, Margie!" he exclaimed
a* he violently took me In his arm*,
almost shutting out my breath
Then his eye (aught the bottle at
nr. bed-aid*.
"Yon haven't taken them?" he
asked In horror, and before I could
answer, for my brain waa at 111
' .":tup!d with the narcotic, he rushed
,t the telephone.
?■ f knew by the number he aaked
for that he waa calling up Dr. At
wafer.
"Don't do that, Dick. I'm all
right."
"Hut we could not get into >oiir
room, and you are dead with sleep
ihl* rnlnut". Get up and we'll ghe
you a cold shower and then we'll
tale a brlak walk."
"You'll do nothing of the kind.
Dick Waverly, an I I want you to
oall up Dr Atwater again and tell
hlin I don't need him."
'Hut Marcie' ' el postulated Diet*
I only look one tablet because
- and then It all came to me why
Jf took the tablet: Mollies wedding
and the letter
I heard Dick's "Igh of relief an he
said, I did not. think you had done
Hi I* terrible thing, but you would
not wake up and what could I
think""
' Why ahould you think 1 would
want to kill myself?"
Dick bung Ilia head
*1 II tell you right here that I do
not Intend to kill myself, hut I, like
you. wanted to atop thinking for a

purpose by drinking a great quan
tity of liquor and making somewhat
(Of a spectacle of yourself af your
slater'* wedding and I took just one
of these little white tablet*, and In
the privacy of my own room went
to sleep."
"But you might never have awak
ened again." said i>ick In a Irani
bllng vole*
"After the first "hock perhaps
you would be glad."
"Margie! You rr.ust not talk like
that You know I love only you "
"But what of that other woman?"
"There is no other woman In my
heart, Margie '*
"No other women In your life'"
I»lck hesitated and then spoke,
' Plenty of them, but there I* safety
in numbers "
"Well, Irtck. you must now
choose, if you want me and re
spectablllty more than you want
Klranor Kairlow and the rest, you
must choose me alone
"I want to tell you that you will
probably be sorry either way you
make your choice. The Margie
Waverly that you may choose is
very different, from the jjirl who
flung herself Into your arms so
gladly, saying, i want to belong to
you.' Never again shall I belong
to you. never again, no matter how
much I shall long to do so, ran I
belong to you. You have taken
something from me a faith, a love
and trust—and deliberately thrown
It away."
"You are rny wife. Margin"
"Yea. I know I am your wife, but
after all, while the word wife' has
a certain sullen significance, it be
comes meaningless to me—from
now on Hi Anything sacred or even
honored."
IMck held up his hand as If to
ward off my words.
"Why shall I not say this, IMck'
And I want you to understand that
I mean every word of It lam not
