Her studio is on the same floor as mine, you know. Atwood and Barker and she and T are all on one floor, and we often have a dish of tea together when we are not rushed.” I busied myself with the coffee ma- chine until I could control my voice. How I hated these glimpses of the in- timate friendship which must exist between my husband and this woman! “I suppose we ought to have them all over some night,” I said at last, “put I’ll have to add a few things to our equipment and wait until I get a maid.” “That will be fine,” Dicky assented cordially, pushing back his chair. “Did the papers come? I'll look them over for a little. Whistle when you're ready and I'Il wipe the dishes for you.” 5 He strolled into the living room, and I suddenly remembered that I had laid my letter from Jack on the table, with its pages scattered so that any one picking them up could not help seeing them, I had forgotten all about the letter. I had meant to show it to Dicky af- ter I had explained about Jack. It was not quite the letter for a bride- groom to find without explanation. I realized that. Dicky Finds Jack’s Letter. I could not get the letter without attracting his -attention. I waited, every merve tense, listening to the sounds in the next room. I heard the rustling of the newspapers, then a sudden silence told me his atten- tion had been arrested by something: Would he read the letter? I did not think so. I know his sense of honor was too keen for that, but I remem- bered that the last page with its signature was at the top of the sheets as I laid them down. That was enough to make any loving husband reflect a bit. How would Dicky take it? T won- dered. I was soon to know. I heard him crush the paper in his hand, then come quickly to the kitchen. I pre- tended to be busy with the dishes, but he strode over to me and clutching me by the shoulder with a grip that hurt, he thrust the last page of the letter before my face. and said hoarse- 1y: “What does this mean The last words of Jack’s letter danced before my eyes, Dicky’s hand was shaking so. “Till I see you, dear.

I resolved mow to put my friendship for Jack tpon the same basis as his for Mrs. Under- wood. A Comparison Strikes Home. So I looked at him cooly. ‘“Have ead the letter?” I asked quietly: ou know I have not read the let- ter,” he snarled. “It lay on the pa- pers. I could not help but see this— this whatever it is,”" he finished lame- ly, “and I have come straight to you for an explanation.” ‘‘Better read the letter,” T advised quietly. “I give you full permission.” I could have laughed at Dickey, if I had been less angry. He was so like an angry, curious child in his eagerness to know everything about Jack. “You have no brother. a relative?” “No,” I returned demurely. “An old lover then, I suppose, a confident one I should judge by the EMIL H.

Won't it be too cruel a blow to him when he finds his dear little girl is married.” Dicky’s tone fairly dripped irony. “He will be surprised certainly,” T answered, ‘“but as he never was my lover, I do not think it will be any blow to him.” “Who is he anyway? Why have you never told me about him? What does he look like " Dicky fairly shot the questions at me. I turned and went into my room, There I rummaged in a box of old photographs until I found two fairly good likenesses of Jack. I carried them to the kitchen and put them in Dicky’'s hands. He glared at them, then threw them on the table “Humph! Looks like a gorilla with the mumps,” he growled. “Who is this precious party, then. if he is not a lover or a relative?” “He is an old and dear friend. His friendship means as much to me as— well—say—Lillian Gale’s means to you.” Dicky stared at me, a long, long look as if he had just discovered men. Then hé turned on his heel. “Well! I'll be—" I did not find out what he would, for he went into his room and slammed the door. A LAUGH FOR ALL IN “A PAIR OF SIXES” with “A Pair Of Sixes,” at the Lyceum on Saturday, Oct. 9, matinee and evening, is the No. 1 company. The true test of farce is the ability of the characters in the scenes to make observers of their conduct laugh at them, while by all their speech and actions they appear to be in dead- ly earnest. This, “A Pair of Sixes,” the greatest of all farces, which ran for an entire year at the Longacre theater, New York, accomplishes in a way that made the metropolitan critics positively outvie one another in their lavish terms of praise. The play is by Edward Peple, who has al- ready distinguished himself as the author -of “The Prince Chap,” and “The Littlest Rebel.”” It is in three acts and tells a humorous story that is as ingenious in its development as it is in motif. It concerns two business men, George B. Nettleton and T. Boggs John, who have estab- lished a lucrative business by manu- facturing a violet tinted digestive pill. Each feels that he has done more for the success of the business than the other, and neither makes any bones of expressing his feelings to his partner. As a consequence they are constantly Squabbling and irritating one another. In this respect they might be termed an American Potash and Perlmutter. They finally decide to dissolve part- nership and call in their lawyer. He has already had many such demands made upon him, and as usual is unable to bring them to a point of settle- ment, He finally suggests a game of «ards, the one drawing . the losing the winner's household for a year while the other is allowed ab- | solute conduct of the business of sixes. John is duly installed as a butler in the Nettleton household, where his partner lords it over him, but he grits his teeth and performs his duties as a menial. The contract stipulates that it must be kept a secret, and the one breaking it must forfeit $5,000 and lose his share of the business. As a consequence, T. Boggs John is unable to explain his awkward predicament. To add to his discomfiture, the English housemaid, an eccentric cockney, sets her cap for him, but it is not until the arrival of his filancee as a guest of Mrs. Nettle- ton that his misery overflows, for he cannot explain his plight without for- feiting a heavy fine. He begs her to trust him in spite of all. These hu- morous situations develop in a contin- uous excitement of fun. Boggs’ Sweet- heart proves a very powerful queen in the game, as it is through her cleverness that the relations between the two parties are finally explained to the satisfaction of all, excepting, per- haps, the scheming lawyer. STRONG HUMAN PLAY AT LYCEUM THURSDAY Why do girls born and bred in small towns so often have a craving, a reaching out with both hands, an unquenchable longing to go to the big city? They leave home, mother, friends, pleasant surroundings and near associations to live in a tiny room, in a house only half clean, with food that barely holds the body together, and endure this for years rather than return to what they term the dull monotony of home life. Many grow tired of the tiny room and squalid surroundings and fall easy prey to wicked men, who, like vultures, are ready to devour a girl's innocence and virtue; a few grow dis- couraged in this slow, grinding drud- gery and though 'tempted to go the easiest way are halted in time by the thoughts of home and mother. Of these latter is Mary Horton, the heroine of ‘‘Sinners,” the four act play by Owen Davis that will be pre- sented ,by William A, Brady, Ltd., at the Lyceum on Thursday. This is one of the strongest human plays of several seasons, drawing crowded houses wherever it is pre- sented, because of its wonderful pathos and appeal. Seats now selling at Crowell's.

Ind. | “I'm feeling better than years,” I friend of mine told have for a me the other day in a strong, happy voice that backed up her words Ior the last ten years she has heen on and sometimes across the boundary of invalidism. During that period she has been operated on three times The last time the doctor decreed that an operation was necessary, it did not seem to her friends that they could let her go to the hospital. 1 remem- ber what a gloom settled down on their hearts when that decree came It seemed the final blow of fate. And yet, when I asked her what she thought had wrought the change in her health, she answered prompt- ly, “That last operation, without doubt. T've been gaining ever since.” Our the Blackest Day Came Sunshine, Naturally my mind went back to the black day when she was carried to the hospital. It was one of the blackest days that those who loved her ever managed to live through, and yet see the days of sunshine and health and happiness it has brought them and her. The best things of life often come wrapped up in the most unpleasant looking packages, don't they? Two of the best things that ever happened to me were these—1 flunked my examinations to the nor- mal scheol and 1 lost my second newspaper position.

Courage, comrade! Who knows but the present ill is the seed of the great- est happiness that will ever come tc you It has been so with others Why not with youl Question—To settle will you please answer through the paper whether it is in good taste tc have the shades of the rooms front- ing on the street raised during the evenings so that the brilliantly lighted room and its occupants are plainly visible to passersby? Answer—I can’t settle anything so entirely a matter of taste as that Some like the shades up, some down In the old days the housekeeper rushed to pull the shades down the moment the lamps were lighted, but nowadays people are not so particu- lar. Personally I love to pass along the street where the shades are up. It looks so friendly. In my home the shades are usually summer and down in winter.
