Much as she doted on Jimmy and great us was the pride she felt in his remyrkable success in business, she still he!d the same: notion concerning what business actually demanded of & man that she had had during the life of James Turner, Sr. To her there was always left time in the business man's busiest day to write business letters. telephone and go on shopping | expeditions for the woman at home. | Jimmy was right in the shopping sec- tion--why shouldn't he match the silk?. He had a telephone right on his | desk--why shouldn't he teléphone to the plumber about the roof leaking? He was so used to writing letters-- why shouldn't he attend to the social | correspondence?

And in the cheap Miss Busby's rejoinder left no sort of hauteur that she affected in re- fusing, Jimmy Turner feit that he saw Something in her nature that he had never seen before. It did not enhance her desirability as a wife in Jimmy's eyes, Still there was the thought of the €upty pantry, the cakes and sand- | wiches looking as if they had been | thrown on the plates, Servants losing 'helr heads at the last moment.

Then followed the courtship of Jim- | my Turner--a mad, feverish, headlong courtship in which Mre. Turner feit perfectly incapable of getting any sat- isfaction from Jimmy. She only guessed that he was in love, But when within a month's time Jimmy told her that he was going to marry Miss Sid- ney Cumbériand Brown, only daughter | of Weyland Cumberland Brown, the | multi-milltonaire banker, her astonish- | ment was complete.
