CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE
Matthew is selffeh, Judith
thought, he has always been. !!;.«
mother's fault, I suppose. It. does-
n't pay, sho argued With herself,
to be so sacrificial.. If 1 ever h;tve
' children I won't mar .vr myself to
• them. I'll give ..tiiein their ■.'esjiij*
tional indepondenee, it's abo'.it Ok*
only tiling you can privo them of :my
value besides standards of decency
, and education. Gary's done all that
for Matthew; she's given him hon-
esty and integrity, she's waUihel
over his hcrdt'a, and she'u worked
for hi.s education. But he Is a't in-
dependent. He thinks he is. But he
isn't.
Aloud she said, "111 be glad to
: sec Lynn too. He's such-a darling."
During the Autumn Eva Lam-
bert wroto Judith cheerfully that
she had canceled a projected sailing
; to Honolulu although they might
go after the first of the year. But
Cousin Marion wrote rflso, in agita-
tion- and underlining every few
words, "You mustn't," she wrote,
"ever tell her that I told i you, aa
'■she wiMtW. furious. '
mot hep well at
yonf" he demanded. "I was, so up-
set when you We're' with Mother
last summer. 1 simply can't get
.■along—"
''■ She broke in, kiSsim?' him, rvif-
tiiiiir his dark liuir with "her hands.
"lit eduvxe '■flir'II' .'{Jet 'hlmij*."1
"If ii '.vas neces..-;u'y he be-
g.'ii-. •
•'How do yon know it Ssir't?" she
fiueried, sitting up straight. "If I
have a week with her, that's all I
want. It. isn't much to ask of you,
Matthew."
"You're not asking," he re-
marked; "you're telling me!"
Judith slid off his knees and stood
up, looking down at him as he
leaned back against a corner of the
big couch. 1 «
"All right," she said, "then I'm
teliing yon. Suppose it was Mary
.. . three thousand miles away . ..
and sho was ill? Wouldn't you take
tho first plane out?"
"Of course," he agreed, "if I was
sure—"
"How could you be sure unless

1« KKiri hntiir "You're the most

selfish:

! the Honolulu trip but She doesn't
seem to have the strength to undcr-
1 take it...."
Judith showed the letter to Mat
thew and he shook hisihead over it.
"I can just see Cousin,Marion," he
Temarked, "about fivc-<threc, thin
as a rail, and very garrulous
People who underline words al
ways talk too much. She's an
. alarmist, darling. Why don't you
write your mother's doctor if you
are really disturbed?"
"Cou«'it Marion," Judith re-
torted, is five feet ten and weighs
at least two hundred. She could
pick Mother up In cine arm and me
in the other. And she isn't in the
least an alarmist. Matthew. 3
won't be easy until I see for my-
self. I think 111 fly out."
He said, in blank dismay, "You
don't mean now?"
"At soon as I can get ready"
They were together in the living
room. Jhdith went over, sat down
on his knees, and put her arms
around him. She said, "I'll miss
you dreadfully. But this is some-
thing I must do, dearest."
He aaid, after a moment, "But
you were going to Boston with me
to the convention next week."
"There Will be other conven-
tions."
Hi« jaw was stubbornly set.
Arid there's the new house," he
reminded her.
They had found, at last, cxaetly
what they wanted, just across the
Connecticut line, an hour from
town by the parkways; a small
hoiise that needed very little re-
modeling, and two acres of ground

Most women would be flattered. A
lot of husbands would he enchanted
with the prospect of a marital va-
cation." He grinned at her, his ill
humor evaporating. "You're so
pretty. Come here and kiss me,"
he ordered.
Judith leaned over and touched
hfr. lij?8 ±r.iefly to his- He com-
plained, "That's no kind of kiss,"
and pulled her down beside him.
Several moments later she eirie
front his embrace and shook
head.
"That solves nothing," aha told
mm.'. ( ;: ^
"it solves everything.* *'
She said, "WeVe been married a
year—"
They had had their first big
Party a week or so before, to «.<=
brate their wedding anniversary.
And had quarreled very definitely
oyer the invitations. Matthew had
given her his list and asked to see
hers, and had protested against the
inclusion ofJilizabeth and Peter.

"I know yon," contradicted heij
husband, "through and through,
have you by heart."
That was sweet. Matthew coult
be very sweet, very disarming.
Judith shook her head. "How about
knowing me by miadJ" ciio in-
'(furred.
"I'lii -not interesief?.'"
"Tliat's what worries me." sfcj
murmured, ".Matthew, are we al-
ways going to bicker, and then kiss
and make up?"
"Who's bickering?" he inquired.
I never do! But you're always
springing little surprises."
"So it's m.v fault?"
.. ''What is?" he asked blankly.
What is this all about anyway?"
Judith answered, "I give tip."
"Good// said Matthew. "Then
suppose you wire or write Cousin
Marion for the name of the doctor,
if you don't already know it, and
let me write him myself. We'll
soon get to the bottom of this."
Judith went over to the fireplace,
and declared firmly, "I'm Koing
west, Matthew, as soon as pos-
sible." '. :,.**'■ .. V.ffl

"I'm afraid so."
The bell rang sc.-J Nils went to
the door to admit ilam, Bill, and
several other men for poker. Mat-
thew'had such stag evenings now
and then. Any one of them was li-
able to be called away, returning
later if possible, but the friendly
wrangling game went on Intermin-
ably. Judith saw to drinks and
sandwiches, and retired to her bed-
room for the duration. £
She sighed a little, with relief.
Matthew couldn't argue any more
this evening. And it would bfe late
When he came to bed. It Was late,
but he woke her and while she lay
there, drowsy, half slipping back
into uneasy dreams, he stormed
around the room, undressing, drop-

and discoursed on the ganfe. "I
must be lucky in love," he deduced
gloomily.
"Well, aren't you?"
"Luckiest man on earth!" He
