"Just sheer luck. Tony Blind, fool luck! In jail--I met a little girl by the name of Jeanie Vance, who told me a very interesting story Jeanie had been out West the last five years and she heard that her husband-- a kid she had married when be was in' college--had gotten a good Job--so she decided to come home and milk him. Do you know what the husband's name was?" » "No-" ' "Smith. But she didn't know where he was. or what he was doing --so she started to look him up in the telephona book. Well, she ran •ut of money and got mixed up in a Mttle hold-up--and got caught. When Jeanie told me that he Was passing himself off as a bachelor. I •gured I just had to get out of Jail , --and that, dear Tony, is how I became a fireman." "What are you going to do now If ' Tony inquired. "I tolcf you. Tony I'm In the wife business.

You know, •very time he "walks In the bathroom I'm powdering my nose with hardly any clothes on, and he gets •0 embarrassed he could drop dead " Tony was sullen. "I don't get jrou, Sylvia. Here I am willing to marry you and take you to Chicago, and start in some swell racket-- and what do you want to do? You want to play bridge like all these ^d'jmb wives." "You forget I'm on parole. All I ask this year is to be able to clear and I'm satisfied." . "'Weil I'm not. I counted on your •irryin' me." "Can't you make up your mind fbat I'm not crooked?" Tony glanced at Sylvia's purse. Re edged over to it, and when she wits not looking, he took out a counterfeit bill irom his pocket and allpped it in her purse. "You can't stop me from being in love with yoa," he declared. "You'd better keep away from me," she replied, as she picked up her purse and left. The next few hours Sylvia spent lb shopping. She was determined • *0 make Smith pay dearly for his ' wife.

I think you're an unfortunate, misguided, stupid fool --but I think you're an honest one." She looked at him disgustedly "Thanks!" There was a knock on the door. Smith opened it to Detective Mailory. "Are you Mrs. Smith?" he asked, looking at the girl. "Yes." .: . "Sylvia Day?" "Yes." "Out on parole, aren't, you?" "Why. yes." ' "Come on. girlie. Get your thing*. Your parole is over" "What do you mean'" Sylvia inquired. not able to understand what he was driving at. "What were you doing trying to pass a twenty dollar counterfeit bill at Mallard's this afternoon?' Sylvia was thoroughly frightened. "Counterfeit bill?" She thought frantically. "1 didn't know it was counterfeit." Smith came to a sudden decision. "Wait a minute, officer You say it was a twenty dollar counterfeit bill?" "Yes." "Oh. so you went. through my pockets again', did you?" he asked, smiling at Sylvia as though he had put one over on her. Sylvia was surprised. "That's funny." Smith continued. "She took it out of my trousers pocket last night." He began to laugh as though the recollection of it was too funny for words. "Serves her right" Then, turning to the officer, "It was my money." "What do you mean, your money?" "I'm general manager at Taylor's Department Store, and I had a number of counterfeit bills with me yesterday. I'm afraid Mrs Smith picked my pocket once too often." "What were you doing with counterfeit money?" the detective inquired suspiciously "The store gets some of it every ' day, and I usually keep it in my desk, but this was handed to me as~ I was leaving and I stuffed it~fn my pocket If you" don't believe me. I'll call Mr Taylor, the president of the store. a"nd have him verify it" "Go ahead--do that."
