A STORY YOU CAN BEGIN AT ANY Her Side---and His l | TIME How Cora and David Temple Solved Their Marital FProblems By ZOE BECKLEY Janet in the Bachelor’s Den. At 10:30 Walt came to take Janet to the oriental at Phil Dean’s studio. “Gosh! little girl, how vou do look!” eyes as Janet opened the door for him. She had dressed as a Japanese geisha girl, in a wonderful gow of pomegranate and silver, and had done up her hair to suit. She was glad of the chance to put a little rouge on her cheels to hide the pallor of her wearin Excitement of the coming contest had given her a false nervous energy which made her eyes sparkle with the semblance of fresh vitality. Tor she knew there was a keen, cruel contest ahead of her that night. With his characteristic bluntness, Walt had flung a challenge at the crowd of bachelor men and women who had commiserated by innuendo with him on his married state. “I'll show you folks my girl is not the cat-by-the-hearth kind,” he had sald as he left the studio party to bring Janet there. And now it was her part to make his challenge good. “She’ll show you how much asleep marriage has made us,” he had said. And she bad to show it, weary as she was! Well, she would do it, no matter what it cos the numbers she had drawn in her marriage lottery, and she meant to pay for her ticket! The insinuating, cloying wail of Hawaiian ukaleles, the shuffle and stamp of dancers, the mellowed shouts and laughter of the party came to Janet even as she and Walter mounted the steps of the house in which \xgalt still retained his bachelor room. Phil Dean’s studio was on the floor above. A dance had just ended as they reached the door. Perhaps with a bit of intentlon, Walt threw the door of the studio open with a flourish at that meem, Half the guests turned to see the entrance of Janet in her geisha role. “My girl!” Walt said with a flourish to the young men and women who came crowding about them. Janet saw the frank admiration of the men. She felt the critical regard of the women. She called on every instinctive weapon and power to help in her ordeal. A score of glasses of punch were pressed upon her. “Here’s to Walt’s girl!” the men cried. “Drink this with me, girl!” “No, with me!” “No, with me; I was your guest tonight!” Jim Hollister, now all frank admiration and gayety- “Tll drink with all of you!” Janet cried. She sipped a little from each extended cup and clinked with a score of other TForgotten was her wear- iness, forgotten tomorrow’s call, forgotten everything but this call on her to defend her marriage—all marriage—from the good-natured sneer of bachelordom! “Dance with me!” “No, with me!” “No, with me,” cried Jim Hollister. “I'll dance with all of you!" cried Janet. And she did. Her pomegranate and silver flashed as gaily and as often in the dance as any woman’s there. The group of men about her was the largest and gayest in the studio. Quip and quirk she gave for compliment and sally. Where she got it all to do it with, Janet, least of all knew. A wail arose. The Hawailans had left and with them music. “T'I\play for you!” Janet cried, snatching a banjo off the wall. Pray- ing for \}m forgotten memory in her fingers to waken, she played, and strummed like one possessed and the dancers fox-trotted joyously to her “rag-picking.” The milkman’s cart rumbled through the streets when Walt put Ja- net’s cloak about her shoulders. “I'll see you home. too!” cried Jimmy Hollister, who had now turned ardent admirer of Janet. “Nb, you don’t, Jim Hollister!” said Walt firmly. I alone will see her to my cave!” The whole gathering escorted Janet and Walter as far as their own door. They could faintly hear their irresponsible clatter as they ambled off down the silent street. Janet and Walt dd not speak as the sleepy elevator boy took them to their floor. But once inside their door. Walter turned to his wife with shining eyes. “Jove—Jan, dear! What a marvel you are! You outshone the whole bunch But for answer Janet sank limply upon her bed. “Oh, I'm so tired—so tired—so tired—'" came her the pillow as she buried her face in her arms. how-d'you-do” party he cried, pride glowing in his n her. This was one of Walt's cried “She’s my girl and muffled voice from Waiting for the Postman. “What's the hardest thing about your work?” T asked a man who has recently branched out in business for himself. “Walting for the postman,” he said (His orders come by mail), “or per- haps I should say, trying to keep my mind on something else while I'm waiting for the postman.” I wonder if there is anyone read- ing this who hasn’t at one time or an- other suffered from that particular form of torture known as ‘‘waiting for the postman.” Perhaps You Were Waiting For a Love Letter. Maybe, as in this case, it was a business letter; maybe it was an over- due letter from some loved one whose death or safety you were anxious about; maybe it was st >me mole- hill like an expected invitation exag- gerated into a mountain by the in- tensity with which you desired it; or maybe it was that most precious and ardently-awaited freight of all the postman carries—a love letter. But somehow sometime, some- where, I know you've waited for the postman. And wasn't it the most temper t ing, patlence fraying job you ever had? A Watched Pot Never Boil You try to go about your work and put him out of your mind, and behold you fina yourself looking out of the window. There is no postman in sight. You strain your eyes hopeful- ly, as if that would produce him out of the blackness. You go back to hear a step coming up the you fly to the window again. It's just some stupid civilian. You feel an un- comfortable dislike for this unoffend- ing person. If the case is very acute your primitive ancestry stirs | and suggests that it would be lief to hurl something at him. He Stops to Look Over His Mail, our work. You street; a re- into sight. He weaves his way tow- most maddening deliberation. He stops to 100k over his mail; he stops 5 the time of day with the gro- cer's man; he waits interminably at front doors. At last he actually reaches the house next door. And then what does he do but stop and talk five minutes by the clock on the mantel (fifty by the one in your brain )with the lady next door. You alw liked the lady next door, but you can't understand now how you ever did. Eventually he actually comes up vour own front path. You spring to the door. He fumbles in his bag and gives you— e me, but there is the post- man’s ring at last. 1 must answer it. Will you wish me goed luck?

The show was advertised as the Ballet Russe— or was it the Charlotte Russe? Well, was a ruse, anyw There were many in the audienc: ular pocketbooks and hor and the show was a suc , as they thought, if they thought at all, which is doubtful. A fella with an alleged moustache led the orchestra through a wildwood of music, it is claimed. Some thought it was music and others were sur- prised when the selections were con- cluded as they thought the fils with the fiddles were merely tuning up. According to all reports the cloth- ing stores in Hartford which malke a practice of renting boiled shirts and soup-and-nuts regalia did a hustling At any rate. there were a lota people in the audience who were mighty surprised to find themselves there and who wonder how they can steer the landlord away on the first of the month. They say aslaw Nijinsky and Mlle Lydia Lopokova get a huge sum every night for their contortions. Well, they earn it. So does the audi- ence. Oh yes, there were many pres- ent who applauded. But as they failed to bring an interpreter with them they didn’t know why. Probably it is because they can’t make their | hands behave any time they see any- one acting like Charlie Chaplin. If P. T. Barnum were alive today he would give the ‘“Greatest show on Earth” to a newshoy and go into the Ballet Russe busine An adventurer who knocks down s pedestrian and relieves him of his watch, chain, money anq ticket on the baseball pool is to be commended for his nerve.

But it 1 be a different story when _the FOUR DOCTORS " DISAGREED Pains Disappeared After Use of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound. Wilmington, Del.—*‘I was suffering from a terrible backache and pains in my side, with bear- ing down pains and was very nervous. 1 was always tired, always drowsy, never could get enough sleep and could not eat. I had four doctors and each told me some- thing different. I read of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegeta- ble Compound and decided to try it. I got good results and I now feel better than I have felt for years and I am gain- ing in weight. I can gladly recommend it to ell women.”’—Mrs. GEORGE W. SEBOLD, 1611 West 4th Street, Wilming- ton, Del. Backache and bearing down pains are danger signals which every woman should heed. Remove the cause of these aches and pains by taking Lydia E. Pink- ham’s Vegetable Compound, that good old root and herb medicine. Thousands of women have testified to its virtues. For forty years it has been making women strong, curing backache, ner- vousness, ulceration and inflammation, weakness, displacements, and perio&ic pain. If you wantspecialadvice write Lydia E.
