JARED <AND BETTY —_—te—— By GEORGE ELMER COBB. e —_— “We will have the house painted a pure white with deep green trim- mings,” pronounced Betty Ross grand- ly and with an air of definiteness. “We won't,” bluntly objected her | husband, Jared. “We weon't?” challenged his positive and stubborn better half, bridling con- siderably. “I sald it.” “Then let me tell you, Jared Ross, for once you said wrong. You own the lot of the new place, but the money I inherited from father paid for most of the building. A clean, clear white will look just cool and delight- ful among all the trees and shrubbery. All the pretty fashionable villas along the river are rainted in that way. Don't you want to be in style?” “I will stick to old notions and comfort,” retorted Jared. “The old house was punkin yaller. The new one's going to be the same, or—" “Or what?" flashed out the exasper- ated Betty. “Or I don't move.” “All right, then you'll where you are,” announced Mistress Betty, and flounced off in high dud-| geon. And this was the spark that set on fire the wilful tempers of two contrary- minded people, good as gold in a gen- eral way, but sternly “sot” in their never-give-up ideas. Jared walked just once down to the new house. His lips set close, his brow grew grim as he saw the paint- ers at work. “White and green, eh?” he comment- ed wrathfully. “All right, Betty can shine in all its glory alone.” That afternoon Betty received a note from the husband with whom she was at serious odds over a trifle. It informed her that he had decided to seek a little change and had gone to Ripley, a neighboring town, to visit a relative. Now from the first talk of the new house, which Jared had never favored, there had been a steadily widening gulf between the two. Betty had been 7 “l'\" il I 1’& “The Old House Was Punkin Yaller— galled to see an ambitious neighbor move to more modern quarters and of her.” Jared had pointed out that the old house was plenty good enough for them, that they were necessary expense in trying to live in a style they were not used to. There had been many bickerings all along the line. The painting of the house was the last straw. Jared was given a royal welcome at | Ripley. There resided about a half- dozen grizzled old veterans who had | belonged to the company Jared had captained in the war. themselves “The Old Guard,” and they set to work to give their comrade a royal good time during his visit. “I say,” observed Pearsons, one of arrival of Jared, “what’s the matte with Ross. He don’t act natural” And then the prevailing gossip was revived—all the story of how the old couple were “out.” “Why, this is all nonsense!” Pearsons. somehow.” He himself went as a committee of one to epy out the lay of the land at Millville. He returned to seek out Jared “Old friend,” he said, see your wife, Say, for you.” “Oh, yes, lots!” scoffed Jared. “Did she send for me?” “Why, no. She'd never give upthat decided “We must patch up a peace “I've been to she’'s mourning ‘alrong will of hers tc send for you if you never go back, but she wants you Just the same.

He held a secret conclave of “The Old Guard.” The next night Jared was invited to a farewell supper. [ There was plenty of hard cider. Some {that he drank was “hocussed.” Then when he was fully under its influence, his well-intentioned comrades set | about carrying out their plot. Jared was placed tenderly in a wagon box filled with fresh clean hay, and they drove him over to Millville. Now something had happened since the visit or Pearsons to that same town. It was this: The new house had caught fire and all but one side was burned up. Anyhow, the schemers placed Jared within the supporting arms of a big roomy garden cbair facing what was left of the new house. They left him to wake up when he would, and worry his own way out of the impending tangle. When with early daylight Jared opened his eyes, it was to marvel at his strange situation. Then his glance became riveted on the new house. “Burned down! how's this?" he ejac- ulated, and, catching a glimpse of the unharmed side of the structure he fairly glared. “Why, it's not white and green at all. Punkin®yaller—I vum!” And he i rubbed his head, reflected, was mysti- fied and all at sea, and then reflected | some more. “Bless me, if I don't believe that perverse Betty changed her mind, and painted it my favorite color to please | me!

Ylazed straws are still smart, espe- cially in the black and colored effects, but the trend is toward the unglazed all-white midsummer hats.
