She was so furi- ous at this that when Dr. Marsh had left, she turned on Walt. “What right had you to force me to see a doctor!” she cried, her cheeks flaming. “It is my place, and mina alone, to say whether I shall do this or that about my health!” ““As a matter of pure theory, your health is largely mme, too,” Walt said quietly. “If you were suffering from a contagious illness your rights would not include exposing me to the disease. If you break down, I shall be unspeakably distressed. I don't like being disturbed, so I take this pre- cautfon.of calling the doctor in time. Are you convinced from what he sa; that you must take a rest from your work 2" Dr. Marsh had put the case much more emphatically than Walt was doing. “Mrs. Stedman, it has taken you months to break down your nerves as vo uhave,” he said after a thorough examination of Janet, to which she submitted only because she detested making a scene in his presence. “If you dont stop at onca—tomorrow, and go away for a rest, it will take you a year to undo the damage you have done your nerve tissue.’ / The knowledge that Walt had been right all along and she wrong added to the disturbance she felt at the reali- in between | The Question of vRiéhts denouncing Walt's infringement on hier undoubted right to decide for her- self.

Now the very next thing to do is to ring up David Temple and tell him that the doctor has ordered you to take a rest at once—and that you're going, to do it.” I shall do no such thing cried. Walt put hiz hat and coat on. “Where are you going?” she asked in alarm. “To see David Temple,” Walt said quietly. “It might be a little more di- rect for you to tell him that vou're oing on a little vacation. But since ou don’t intend to do it yourself, I am taking it on myself to do so. Janet stared at him helplessl long as he ated her on terms equality she felt more than able to cope with him in this deadlock. But this calm seizure by him of the whole situation, his quiet disregard of her “rights,” his elemental man attitude toward her suddenly crumpled her re- sistance. In her nervous condition she began to c I Janet So tr of She almost won by the very manner of her surrender. Walt was so moved by the sight of his plucky mate in tears that he nearly gave in.

They both thought a moment. “I can’t remember,” she confessed. “And I can't either,’ said he. “T can remember some of the fool things we flung at each other after we got started, but I can't remember what on earth started it.” ‘And yet,” sald the Most-Recently- dded Lady, still evidently search- ing in the recesses of her mind, “I do remember that I held out so long, because I felt it was a principle we ,”’ he remem- upset in “Now what was What They Quarelled About disagreed about.” They Were Both Sure a Principle Wi Involved “Yes,” sald the Most-Recently- Wedded Man, “I have that same feel- ing nwyself.” Of course, we all laughed and they, being younz people rich in that blessed possession, a sense of humor- ous perspective, laughed too.

Do you know, that's the worst part about quarrels, the grievances and the bitter accusations you dig up, out of your mind and your memory, and fling at each other. “Yes, that’s just like you, alway: thinking of yourself first,” said she. “Maybe 1 am,” says he, “‘but I'd like to know who you were thinking of when—"" etc. There are the things that leave the wounds. | 1f two young people would make up | their minds not to drag miserable miscellanies of this sort into their jarguments, how much more often ar- guments would remain arguments, and not dezenerate into quarrels, 7" - e B Excellent for Coughs & Colds of Horehound & Tar All Druggists UNITED PARENTS’ and TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION Announcement for 1916-1917 December 12, Tucsday The Boston Quintette 1917 January 23, Tuesday Raymond Havens and Miss Cora Sapin February 20, Tuceday — Burlingham Schurr “The Winter Worla” March 20, Wednesday Edward Avis, bird imitator April 24, Wednesday Musical Art String Trio TICKETS for COURSE FIFTY CENTS ing a cape collar.

Miss Georgia Campbell, George Bogues and Ralph Sipperly have also been with “The Red Wid- ow” and it was hardly necessary for them to rehearse their roles this week. The lines were written by Channing Pollock and Rennold Wolfe and the music by Charles Gebest. It is in three acts with the scenes laid in T.ondon and Petrograd. “The Red Widow” is associated with a band of Nihilists and the complications into which Mr. Butts, an American corset salesman, succeeds in entangling himself through her scheming, forms the basis for the story. The manage- ment has gone to extra expense for costumes and will present a chorus of seventeen members. An idea of the size of the cast can he obtained from the fact.that there are eighteen speaking parts. The muslcal numbers total seventeen, the song hits being “I Love Love” and “I Shall Never Look at a Pretty Girl Again.” Arthur Downing of New York has been secured by Mr. Perrin as musi- cal director for the company to re- place the present incumbent. “Alma, Where Do You Live?" will be presented by the company for the last time at 8 o’clock tonight. MAJESTICS AT THE GRAND NEXT WEEK At the Grand theater, Hartford, next week, Fred Irwin's attraction, “The Fred Irwin Majestics,” a show that has made a record breaking run throughout its travels this season, will be seen, The ‘‘Majestics” has a list of principals including Paul Cunning- ham, who s credited with having written the book; Florence Bennett, Louise Alexandria, Gracie DeMont, and Dooc Dell, There are stunning chorus girls, attired in fashlon’s lat- est: there is a fine male chorus, and thers will be a lot of other things with the Majestics, including fine soenery and some good speolalties.

One of the twin boys whom we had seen the night before sat opposite me. Wondering whether T would be able to tell him from his brother as T had declared T could do at supper time T scrutinized him closely. Yes, the distinguishing mark which T had discovered was not lost to me. The boy bhefore me was not Ned, the one who in khakl garb had brought in the turkeys the night hefore. As T looked his mother's voice called from the Kkitchen: “Oh, Fred, please.” The boy arose with alacrity. As he did so Mrs. Allis said, laughingly: “Well, I'm fooled again.
