# Pictorial Romances #15 This issue contains two stories. "Wife Without Pride or Principles" follows a woman who, seeking revenge against her husband for ruining her father's business, conspires with her sister to seduce and destroy him; however, when an oil derrick explosion kills her sister, the protagonist's father reveals the truth—that Bill Foster actually saved him from jail and ruin—leading her to abandon her vengeful plot. The second story depicts a couple's marital struggles as they purchase their first home on credit; tensions arise when the wife becomes resentful of the financial burden, but after the husband takes her to a hospital where she glimpses his care for her, they reconcile and strengthen their relationship through understanding and mutual support.

When Sandra's father loses his business to her new husband Bill Foster under mysterious circumstances, she vows vengeance—but Bill won't explain what happened, and Sandra won't leave his side. Determined to make him pay through a calculated campaign of humiliation and scandal, Sandra orchestrates a series of carefully staged incidents designed to torment the man she married, each one meant to wound him deeper than the last. As her schemes unfold across the oil-country town, Sandra discovers that the truth behind her father's downfall—and her own heart—may not be what she believed.

The Frightful Truth

Nora's unwavering devotion to Dick Starr wavers when he mysteriously pulls away after returning from the army, leaving her to wonder if he's found someone else—until a shocking phone call from his mother reveals the heartbreaking truth behind his distance. As Nora races to his side, she discovers what Dick had hidden from her all along and must confront the deepest test of her love.

Wife Without Principles

Pencils Tal

Sally's dream of owning her own home finally comes true when she marries Bill Lawrence, but her obsession with furnishing and maintaining their house begins to drive a wedge between them. As Bill loses his job and struggles to find work as an engineer, Sally's focus on the material trappings of their life—rather than the emotional bonds that make a home—threatens to unravel everything they've built together. When good news arrives, it may be too late to repair the damage her priorities have caused.

For Nurses Only
7 pp · Romance

Doctor Helen Walker achieves her lifelong dream of becoming a physician and begins her internship at Gavreville General Hospital, but she's met with skepticism from the hospital's senior doctor, Warren Mackenzie, who believes women belong in nursing, not medicine. As Helen proves her medical skill through dedicated work, Warren's rigid opposition slowly softens—until he falls in love with her and asks her to give up her profession entirely to become his wife. Caught between the man she loves and the ambition she's sacrificed everything to pursue, Helen must decide what she's truly willing to surrender.
