“That’s our 1925 model,” said the natty young salesman. “The very
roadster, and you can use that to go
to your bridge club and lunch
parties,"
Glory pouted."
"I don’t want that old ark," she
said drearily. "I want a little closed
ear like the one your mother has."
"But you just bought a now dress
last week for your party,” he said.
“What’s the matter with it?" #---------------.— -------------
"Oh, that thing!" Glory answered, • “Give me time, and I'll be able to

her lips curling. "My old drsss-
maker made it. It had no style.”
"I thought it was beautiful," Dick
paid helplessly.
Downstairs Ranghild was striking
The Chinese dinner gong.
"You know, Dick." Glory said
after dinner as they sat before the
wood fire in tbs living room, "a
woman needs mors clothes . than a
man does.”
Dick lowered his newspaper and
looked at her.
"How much did you spend today?"
+ he asked.
"Only a little bit over four hun-
dred dollars,” Glory said.
"But wait until you see all ths
lovely bargains I picked up!" she
cried before he had time to answer.
She ran upstairs and dressed her-
self in ths new black velvet droes.
Theneshe put on the cream-colored
hat, and dabbed mimosa perfume be-
hind her ears and under her chin.
"Don't I look like a million dol-
lars? she asked, excitedly when she
came down again.
"You sure do," Dick admitted.
“But I want to show you some-
thing."
He took a black leather book
from his inside coat pocket.
“Oh, don't show me figures,
please,” Glory protested. "I don't
understand them, and they make
my head feel all fussy inside.”
“These won’t," Dick said. "Look
here, I haven’t four hundred dollars
in my checking account! And I’m
paying for some telephone company
stock that I'm going to give you
for your birthday.”'
"Oh, don't! I don't want it. Give
me an automobile, instead!" Gloria
cried, clasping her hands. “I’ve just
got to have an automobile! May and
Myra and all ths girls have one!"
"May and Myra have rlrh hus-
* hands,” Dick answered. "You've
married a poor man, and you’ll have
to get used to being a poor man's
wife. I'll teach you to drive my
get things like that for you,” Dick
replied. “In another ten or fifteen
years—”
“Ten or 11 years! Glory broke in.
"Why, in 10 or 15 years I'll be an
old woman! I won't care about par-
ties and beautiful clothes, then!"
Dick laughed at her.
-You'll be a very attractive wo-
man. In your early thirties," he said.
"And you'll find that your taste
for clothes will be just as strong
as It is now—stronger, perhaps.
"In the meantime,” he went on
looking at her gravely, "you'll have
to economize a little. Now, I want
you to promise me that you'll never
go downtown and run up bills on
me again, without asking me about
It first. Will you promise me that?’
Glory looked him straight in the
sye. Slowly she shook her head.
"No," she said clearly. "I won't
make any such promise, for I know
I'd break IL I'm going to have
clothes. I won't look like a trump.
Don't you want me to be as well
dressed as other women?’
"I can’t say that I'm particularly
crazy about having a clothes-horse
for a wife." Dick answered picking
up his paper. “And there’s just ons
more thing I have to say. I can’t .be
worried to death about bills snd
expenses at home, and do anything
like my best work downtown every
day."
Before ten the next morning May
Seymour telephoned Glory,
"Hello, Lazy-bones!" she said In
answer to Glory’s sleepy "Hello."
“I’ve been up for two hours,” May
went on proudly.” “Bathed Mali
Jongs already." .:
"Did you call me up to tell me
you’d given your dog a bath?
Glory laughed 4 ‘‘I have something
better to tell than that myself. I’ve
got a lot of new clothes to show
you. Bought ’em yesterday.”
"Well, doll yoursi If up in some
Glory smoothed down the folds
of her black velvet dress thought-
fully::
"Other men seem to buy their
wives an occasional dress or two,"
she remarked with cutting sarcasm.
"And I don't notice that they crack
under the strain. Good night, I
think I’ll go to bed. There’s no use
trying to sit up and talk to you
when you're wound up for one of
your sermons on economy. Jiminy,
but I wish I were still earning my
$25. a week! Then I wouldn't be
jawed to death every time I spend
a penny!"
“Well, will you kindly take a look
at the Fifth Avenue kid” May ex-
claimed as Glory opened the door of
the automobile and stepped in
"That’s the best looking hat 1 over
saw in my life!”
“I’m glad you appreciate IL Dick
all but killed me for buying it,"
Glory sighed. "My goodness, to hear
him tsik you'd think I’d committed
a murder instead of buying myself
a few clothes!”
"That's the way with all the man.”
May sympathised as the car sped
through the sunny streets. - I tell
you, Glory, a woman has to fight
for everything she gets in this
world! I've broken John of his ever-
lasting ding-donging about bills,
though. Every time he razzed me
for epending money I turned right
'round and spent some more! Now
he’s afraid to open his mouth about
bills." ___
May set her painted mouth in a
straight firm line.
"What does a girl get out of mar-
riage but a few clothes and parties,
and a houseful of furniture to keep
dusted, anyway? she went on after
a moment “Nothing alas at all! Hut
Glory thought this over. Surely
May hadn't given up everything
when sho’ married Dr. John. She
certainly had not given up Jim Ca-
rewe, for instance. They still went
around together as they had before
May's marriage.
Dr. John was a mystery to Glory
Didn’t he care if this attractive
young wife and Jim Carewe lunched
together two or three times a week
while- hs, himself, was making his
calls? Or did he care so much for
May that he let her do as she
pleased, so long as she was content
to be his wife? Glory couldn’t figure
it out.
May parked her ear outside an
automobile salesroom.
After ths two girls had shopped
and lunched they decided to go back
to Glory’s house to look at her new
clothes.
Glory was vaguely unhappy.
Somehow or other she had had a
wild hope that she would see Stan-
ley Wayburn in the restaurant

Its dark blue sides shone like
satin. Its trimmings were of pol-
ished brass.
That touch about the markets was
an inspiration, she knew. For Dick
loved the idea of her being a house-
wife, picking out her own straw,
berries and rump roasts in the mar-
kets, and bringing them home.
"I want that telephone stock, for
