A STORY YOU OAN BEGIN AT ANY TIME Her Side--and His How Cora and David Temple Solved Their Marital Problema By ZOE BECKLEY Following the dinner at which Janet iStedmnn met the various men and women she was to work among, her courage sagged. Not on her own ac count, but on her husband's. Janet's heart ached with love and the pity to . which love is akin when she thought of Walt at that dinner. How splendid he had looked—how hand- some, how ‘“thoroughbred, and strong and capable. had noticed him. She, Janet, had been the center of attention—she who was to be director-in-chief of the big feminist magazine, “Woman.” Even Roy Nicoll, its owner, had been over- shadowed a bit, for, given a situation in which a man and a woman have equal prominence, the woman will catch and hold popular attention every time, Janet longed to have Walt share in her opportunity. But it seemed he could not. For the moment at least he was in the unenviable position of ‘“‘mere husband.” be worked out laboriously, slowly per- haps, along the steep path of author- ship. While Janet had her work— her success even—Iaid ready to her hand. “Waltie, how big dear old lad,” she said, perching on his chair-arm, where she | could watch his face without her own being seen, “I can still turn back. I may not be big enough to swing this job after all. If I am to suc- ceed I shall have to work terribly hard. Only half of me will belong to my home and to you. I somehow feel i But he would not let her finish. He laid down his old pipe and drew her face to his own, holding her firmly while he answered with all his wonted energy and resolution. “Hush girl! I know what you want to say. Let us have a clear understanding at the start, Jan, that you must feel nothing but perfect freedom in this undertaking. “You have gone into it, now give it your whole heart, your best thor- oughness. If I do not flinch from the situation, surely vou should not. And I do NOT flinch from it, Janet. I welcome it. If this man Nicoll can give yvou a greater chance at self-em- ployment and usefulness to the world than I can—at present, anyhow—let him do it! T'll meet his ‘challenge, dear. Have no fears for me.” ‘“But suppose I have to go away— His success must | | The Business Path make trips to places on business for the magazine? How can I leave 1 “Listen my girl.

How you said you were willing to share me to every reasonable extent with the people of my world? Well, dear, T am willing to share you, too——if your work de- mands it.” The words and the way Walt said them thrilled Janet to the core of her warm heart. At that moment she felt she loved him more than ever before. The maternalness that throbs at the soul of every woman rose powerfully in her now. She yearned to assure Walt over and over of her love and loyalty; to promise any and every thing—taking no thought of how impossible promises some- times are to keep. She wished she had the magic to summon success to his feet; to do for him what he was so willing to do for her. She wiggled round from the chair- arm into Walter's lap and snuggled on his shoulder. “You old lamb!" she whispered a little tremulously into his neck. “If I ever do anything to make vou sad, Waltie, I ought to hang for it!" v REVELATIONSOF A WIFE By ADELE GARRISON. What Happened When Divky Broke Some Amazing News to Madge. I stared at Dicky in horrified amaze- ment when he told me that he thought Mrs. Allis was planning to drug me. “Oh, I can’t believe that of her, Dicky,” I protested, although even as spoke the conviction came to me that Dicky’'s accusation would prove a true one. “It's as simple as falling off & log,"” Dicky went on, still muffling his voice so that there should be no danger of beéing overheard by Mrs. Allis in the room opposite. ‘‘That’s the reason for her asking you to come in and drink tea with her each night this week before going to bed. She figures on your getting so used to the teu drinking and to her that when the time comes for her and her gang to pull off that picture theft it will be an easy thing for her to slip enough dope into vour tea to keep you quiet for the night.” “What an awful woman!" T ejacu- lated. 7 Yes, party, isn't she? Dicky returned: then, thoughtfully: “Lucky you told me. She'll not bother about' me, and I'll be able to watch out for her and spoil her little scheme when the time comes. “Let's see, it was the end of the week she and that chap spoke of in the woods—that Is the time they had fixed on, wasn't it?" Dicky went on. “Yes, the end of the week,” T re- plied. ) Well, then, you'll be safe in going to her room a night or two more. She'd not take any chances of mak- ing you suspicious by putting any- thing over before the time. But mind now, little Miss Sherlock, when I say stap going to her Toom, you quit. T'm not going to have you run any risks, do you hear?” T snuggled happily against him. A little thrill of contentment went through me at the tender comand of Dicky's tone. Strong-minded and self- reliant as I was pleased to think my- celf, vet there was a distinct satisfac- tion to me in this tender, rough, dominance of Dicky's. “All right,” 1 said, as meekly as any clinging vine of a wife might speak. And then, in whispers so low that even Mrs. Allis’ sharp cars could not catch them, we discussed the bizarre situa- tion in which we found ourselves in- volved—planned how best we could circumvent the machinations of the clever, unscrupulous woman in the next room. For three or four days things went on in their usual routine. Dicky and T spent almost every glorious daylight hour out of doors, fishing in the tur- bulent brook. tramping the forest paths, or climbing the steep mountain sides. Mr, Cosgrove’s Odd Warning. At night T was generally so dead tired that it was a real effort each pleasant i { again., evening ta accept Mrs, Allis' invita- tion to drink tea with her in her room, Not willing to arouse the woman's suspicion by refusing her urgent invi- tations, I religiously held to my night- ly visit, although it was all I could do to keep awake. o Thursday marning, , however, days before the “last of the which we had overheard Mrs. specify in her surreptitious interview with her accomplice, an incident occurred which put out of my mind for the time being all thoughts of both the woman and the plot to steal the pictures in the farmhouse parlor, We had come down early to break- fast, Dicky and I, as was our daily custom, arraved for fishing. There was no one in the dining room save Mr. Cosgrove, and T saw him glance at our costumes. Then he spoke tiously, cryptically, to Dicky. Better keep your eyes peeled today, Heard there was a fox skulking round.” To my surprise Dicky glanced at me uneasily before he replied. Evidently he understood the clder man's refer- ence. “All right, thanks,” conically. But T saw that he was thoughiful during the rest of the breakfast, and as soon as the meal was over he toak Mr. Cosgrove aside, and I heard the two men talking ear- nestly together. When their conference was ended beckoned me to come upsta T followed him, bewildered, but certain that Dicky had been con- cealing something from me. He is not an accustomed prevaricatar, and his manner was exactly that of a school hoy furtively trying to throw his teacher off the track of his mis- deeds. two he replied la- he Oh., Nothing at AN “Suppose we go tramping today in- stead of fishing?” he praposed non- chalantly, but I saw that he was watching me warily as he spoke, "1 asked. “We tramped yes- and 1 had so counted on fish- What has happened to “Oh, nothing at all,” Dicky assured me hastily. “But I don't feel like fishing today, and I'm not going to do it.” There was a sulky, arbitrary note in his voice which 1 restnted. With a toss of my head T threw open the door. 'm going trouting,” T sald spirited- Iy, “if 1 have to go alone.” Dicky rushed after me, took me by the shoulder, and swung me back into the room. “You little idiot!” he said savagely. “I suppose I'll have to tell you, would have done it before, only T knew vou'd have one of your splurges of con- science.” “Tell me what?" I demanded “Why, stmply that we've breaking the fish and game been laws,” week” | Allis | cau- | MARGUERITE CLARK .. . IN “MICE AND MEN” Marguerite Clark in the great five- part drama, *‘Mice and Men,” is found at the top of the photoplay program at Keeney's for the first half of the week. This charming little screen star has many admirers in this eity. She is recognized as one of the most capable actresses playing before the camera and she occupies a leading po- sition among the stars. In “Mice and Men,” she has wonderful opportuni- ties to display her charm and clever- ness. The picture is proving a big hit wherever'it is shown and it is ex- pected to prove one of the most pop- ular Frohman films relcased in a year. i The last half of the week the man- agement will offer the Lasky society drama, “The Golden Chance,” with Cleo Ridgley and Wallace Reid in the leading roles. Considerable attention has been at- tracted by'the announcement of the management that Keeney's has se- cured exclusive rights for New Brit- ain for the great drama “War Brides,” Nazimova, appearing in the principal part. The picture will be shown dur- ing the week of January 22. “War Brides” is the biggest film production offered to the public since “The Birth of a Nation.” It was shown on Broad- way for a number of weeks where thousands pald from $2 to $3 to see it. In other places where it has been offered similar prices have prevailed. The Keeney management, however, will show it in New Britain without raising the admission fee. It is to be here during the entire week of the 22nd. ‘The vaudeville talent this week in- cludes the Three Armstrongs in a sensational bicycle act; {Theo, the bal- loon girl and Stelmo in a big vaude- ville novelty.

Some People Like to Fecl Warm and Some Cool. The point is, I think, not that one really feels any cooler than the other, but that some people like to feel warm and others like to feel cool. At college I would sometimes creep into bed with my roommate. I would find her bed at least ten de- grees cooler than mine. “Aren’t you frozen?"” 1 would say. “No,” she would answer, this just right.” Yet there are other people to whom my comfortable is cold. When we sit out of doors, one of my housemates is always much dis- turbed if she feels the wind blowing en her. Immediately she will begin to wran herself un. “But it isn't cold here,” T say. 0. not exactly cold,” she will an- swer. “But can’t you feel that wind?” I can and I love it. 1 like to fell cool sometimes.
