The Glad Surrender--

. . .synopsis : v .
Laurel Stone's Interview , with
Granville Barton was the corner
stone of her marriage to him. Until
then Granville had not known. the
difference between the average -sheltered
socletj ' woman aind the
woman who makes her way In the
world. " He- liked Lanrel Independ- ,
k ence. Ke thonht that; she 'would
make a good mother for his two
' little girls and that her beaaty '
Wonld 'shine ' resplendently at , the
head ot his house. As for love, he
had no time for that, and Ianrel
did not discover this fact" until af-
terward. A son was born . to them,
. I and Laurel's attitude toward her
' husband subtly changed. It wasn't,
however, until he made Hrre to her j
one evening ' that" ho 4 discovered , .
just how much Laurel had dhanged

There, is no breach bu wide as the
m that can be created by two people
ho deliberately. misunderstand - each
. ther." It seemed to 'Granville'- in,, the
lays that followed Laurel's return that
i rarely saw his wife, and never alone.
PVhe they had first been married he
lad sometimes knocked at the d9or of
ler sitting room and come, into the
temlnlne softness of it for a chat. Then
he had never,, thought of making' love
to her, and she had been just aa beautl
ful as she was, now.. What a fool he
had been, what 'a conceited fool! '
During Laurel's . visit out west
Marion Worth -: had tried ' with" every
thing in her power' to attract Gran
ville.. The easy morals of her" set per
mitted this and would - give her . any
credit if she succeeded in making it the
least bit obvious that Granville .was at
tracted toward her. . There wasa ceri,
tain amount of jealousy of Laurel any
way. ; Her triumph had been too com
plete, and she held, her place too easily.
It wasn't fair; that any one. w6man
, should have every thing;, the wealthiest
and most important man, the most
beautifully manasred home, and - in' ad
dition to both of these thlnes. so much;
beauty that she ' put. every one elee in
me shade. So that "when Marion really
inveigled Granville .Into coming to the
country club, women smiled malicious
ly and looked forward to something in

Granville came partly because he was
lonely, and partly because he was curi
ou$ about women.-, His attitude toward
Laurel was amaring, his ignorance ap
palling, There was a gnawing hunger
in - him that he tried to assuage by
playing with -Marion, for 'playing is t?ie
word. was too -shallow for deep
feelings, jae was like a kitten, amua-

And. she, delighted with her success in
getting Granville to look at' her at all.
did not. realize all thi "until Laurel's
return. " When she1 found Granville-, un;
available she was furious, vindictive'.
She- determined . to do . something, and
sne -sought about in her mind, for a
weapon "that would hurt LaureU x . . .
. One morning: early in October. Laurel
came diwn to breakfast to nnd'.a' long
envelope wlththe rest of the mail at
her place. : The ' superscription1 at the
left - set4, her heart beating 'wildly arid
her flngere trembled as she'slit the en
velope, i She rdrew out the inclosuTe 'and
the -long blue slip wavered and blurred

ville's eyes across the table. She smiled
waveringly," and her ; eyes filled- with
tears." : ', - vK - '-,':'..:- 4
' .. "I'm an author.V; she said, , and then
was sorry she had told him! What did
littlbaltry success of this kind, mean
to Granville, who met ; big successes
every day of his life? But there was
Tom Benton to tell. She could see his
kind brown 1 eyes now. - They . would
light up . with pleasure, and Winona
would be speechless. She must run .up
to town this very , day, and . tell them
the news '- !; tf'i. ::i . - .
i 4She swallowed her enthusiasm and
calmly - handed . the check across the
tabje without a. ; word. , Aoid; with hia
new unuerstandirig, - with his intense
love7 for- her, he realixed that h was
deliberately refusing to share her; small

I'-j "I ; wr'pte '-it-bur "west,?-- she explained,;
'and proceeded to forget -all about it.
Tom Benton wrote ma that I ought to
try fiction. He was the most' under
standing man when I worked for him
on the paper, .H,e was ' that way with
every one, nerer too busy to say, "Bully
work," or somethirtg-of the kind. . You
know it isn't done in the newspaper
world, every one Is too busy; your work
Is just accepted ; without a worjl, and
as Ions as some one doesn't tell you it's
rotten, - you Just , take for granted the
fact that you are getting' along. ; Peo
ple aren't paid; salaries; out of senti
ment, not on- a newspaper." -
. Granville wanted to tell her how
proud he wa of her, success; he wanted
to take her in hjs arms and crush her
and tell her. she was his, and -that-no
one could $ive her . the sympathy- he
could, ; because he loved her so much.
But he did none of those thjngs He
was too conscious of the fact that it
would do no good. She was eager and
anxious now to tell her news to another
man, a man whom hA iikd and
iSPeCted. It waa tn -h1, , h wntilH

stuisn ouoyance.that she had used
to give to him in the days when he had
not appreciated his own good fortune.
