VELATIONSOF A WIFE By ADELE GARRISON for Thed_ter Goers ané;W;nen Readers How Madge Saved the Situation: “Aha, here’s wanderer! We thought you were never coming.” Harry Underwood and Dicky sprang o their feet as Lillian and I entered her dining room. Of course, Mr. Un- derwood was the first to speak. I stole a glance at Dicky. Was he still angry ? “Hello, careless. little, but fect me. “Good afternoon, demurely as I could; panion: “I have alre: once today, I believe. For just an instant Harry Under- wood’s face was ludicrous in its sur- prise. He had not dreamed that I would dare mention his having seen Jack and me at the door of the res- taurant when I had been so distres- sed at the loss of my rings. I knew I risked something in speak- ing of the meeting. He might resent my flouting of his knowledge and speak of the temporary loss of the rings before I could tell Dicky about the episode myself. But I had weigh- €d things carefully before I spoke. I could not afford to let Harry derwood imagine for a second te was doing me a favor in being silent about any affairs of min Lillian and Dicky looked their sur- prise. I explained in a matter-of-fact manner as I could muster. “When my cousin and I left Bro- quin’s where we dined, Mr. Under- wood was passing.” Harry Underwood’s piercing black eves met mine squarely. They were dancing with mirth, in which I knew there was more than a soupcon for malice. “Broquin’s!” exclaimed Lillian, as she indicated my chair, and rang for the maid. “That reminds me. T haven’t been to Broquin's for ages. It's a bully little place. Do they dress their salads as well as ever?” A “Smart” Cook. I was so grateful to her for chang- ing the subject that I forgot to be an- noved at Harry Underwood's offusive manner as he pulled my chair back and seated me in myv place. “The coffee, Betty,” Lillian said quietly to the colored cook who had come into the room at the tap of the bell. “Oh, yas'm, Miss Lillian, the coffee, yas'm.” She disappeared grinning from ear to ear, Harry Underwood frowned. “When are vou going to attach a can to that noisy coon, Lil?” he de- manded unpleasantly. ‘“She’s getting fresher every day. “I'd sooner attach one to you, dear- est,”” she flashed back at him, but good naturedly. T could not detect a trace of temper or even annoyance in her answer, although Harry Under- wood's tone was one that almost any wife might resent. “On the principle that it's always mighty easy to get another husband, but not so easy to get a good cook?" Dicky asked impudently. “Exactly,” returned Lillian in Remember, husbands come higher, the older the bidder,”” Harry Under- wood said, and his cutting tone gave ciphasis to the offensive words. Lillian flushed under her rouge, but the Madge.” Dicky’s tone was Its indifference stung me a I resolved not to let it af- Dic] T said as then to his com- 1y greeted vou Tl bring laugh- luckily the entrance of Betty with the coffee saved the situation. “How did you all like dat Retty demanded of everybody in gen- eral, as she passed the coffee, 1 looked at her in amazement, Sure- Iy Mr. Underwood's criticism was somewhat justified. “Scrumptious, Bett said Dicky, laughing. “Didn’t you see I took two pieces?"” “It was very good pie, Betty,” said Lillian warmly. “That is all now.” But Betty refused to be dismissed. She was a coal black, enormously large colored woman, with a good- natured face and a smile that almost made one laugh in sheer sympathy with her jollity. “Yas'm, I thought that was a good she said ‘an’t get no better pie dan dat no- where in dis heah town.
