IRVING KING (Copyrliilttj M ARIAN was sorry she had writ* ten tlfut Utter—but she was not sorry soofr- enough. .Her regret earns after she had mailed it. It was a j trivial thing they laid fallen out over. [ any way—Marian Ormsby and Harold 1 Graves. Marian's letter to Harold was | somewhat lengthy. I?ut its meaning I- was clear—she guve Harold a pro* * cUptual divorce on Hie ground of in- ] computability of temper, bis fund J heresy with regard to bobbed hair mid ' bis execrable taste in neckties. Alt wds over between them! There wen* a few aide remarks about obstinacy, self-sufficiency and 111 nature,. Harold had been rather irritable i and didactic, It la true. He bud been annoyed by tupgled • business matters that day, the tangle caused by careless or stupid clerks and the onus thrown on him. Under such clr- euinatahces you could not expect n young man to be la an ah olutely an­ gelic mood—even if lie was In love and Ids best girl was with him. All things considered, Htvrold bad behaved very well.'. And Marian, who knew of bis troubles, began to realize it when she enlue to think things over—after she had mailed the letter. ' When Harold got the letter he read it over and over again. At first he thought of writing an answer in the argumentative vein., No, that Ohmld not dot it would only he continuing the quarrel. Then he considered writing one In a humble and npqto- getio strain, pleading' for forgiveness and begging-to bfc- token again into favor. But he- wasn’t humble and he told himself that Marian had as' nuich to apologize 191 - as lie had, A humble, - aringing letter would be In­ sincere—and besides Marian did not , like humble and cringing men any too well." He loved fMarhm. with all his heart—but still he .wanted to stand on something like ian even footing .with /her. ‘Then he took a shoot of letter, pa ' Ispet—and sat down at' bis typewriter. Marian always used >a typewriter' and so did Harold; and they were, of the same make. Harold wrote only two brief sentences. Then he bolt his production from the typewriter und .laid it on his writing desk; laid Mari­ an’s letter beside it 1 got a piece of tis­ sue paper and traced Marian’s slgiui- 1 turej which signature he transferred .to the bottom of the few lines he hart ’,Just typed. The forger grinned as he f | , did it. . • x 1 Then he folded the letter he hud thus completed, placed it in un enve­ lope, sealed| it and directed it to him­ self, a letter he had received that day he soaked off a canceled pos-"' tags stamp and having dried it alTlxed it with mnscilage to the envelope Mo which he had placed his forger}*. A *1 this being accomplished he ordered his car brought up from the public ga­ rage where he kept it and drove over to see Marian. - ' When Harold' came bursting Into her presence, all smiles and with a cheery greeting, she gave a little glad Start and cried; •■Oh, Harold !’4 Then recollecting herself site drew away? , from, him as. he tried to catch her iii, his arms and said haughtily, “Mr. Graves! What does this mean? Kpep away from me, sir. Explain yourself. This Is an outrage. Hid you not get, my letter?" * "Sure thing,’’ replied Harold affect* lng surprise, “That’s why I hurried over, Mntiau, you are the real thing and I always knew you were. Just a little tired Inst night, eh? And I didn't,; make allowances. The fault ts all mine* my dear, 1 guess I wrta a lit-' tie peevish, too. There is hothlng to patch up, .We are just two old sillies, that’s all. But It was so good of you to write ns you did and to take ail the'blame'yourself. Come, give u ,3 n kiss.” And lie took one In spite Of her struggles and smothered protests. "Now," said Marian when she had finally broken away and sunk into a chair—“now, perhaps, you will tell me ! what yon have been talking about. What do you mean by my letter taking all the blame to myself? Are you crazy? or can’t you read?” "Why, I mean what I say,” replied Harold. “What are you driving, at? Hero is your letter." He had torii of t one end of the sealed envelope so that the letter -had every appearance of J having gone through the mull, and I been opened by its recipient. With­ out glancing at the. address—which might have excited suspicion from its lack of similitude to her own writing —Marian drew out till letter and read It. »"Why, whyl" she gasped, "what does this mean? I never wrote this letter." "Isn't that your signature?" asked Harold sternly. “i’-c-s, it appears to be,” said the puzzled Marian. ^ "The letter reads "Dear Harold— 1 guess I whs a little irritable last night and didn’t inean half I said. Come around ^tonight and we will patch up our little lovers’ quarrel. WHh love, Marian.'* * ' "I never, wrote it. 1 can’t under­ stand it," said thi* perplexed girl, "but it goes."
