I feel exactly like the Painted Lady ir. ‘The Passing of the Third Floor Back,’” said Lilllan Underwaood, smil- ing wistfully at me. “Do you remem- ber her?” I nodded. I could not trust mysalf to speak just then for the lump in my throat. I had a very vivid picture df the “Painted Lady"” as I had seen her in the play., [ could see her pitiful, shrinking figure, as divested of the rouge and powder and dyed hair, which had made her loak youthful, she crept into the lodging house sitting room. “I dread to meet any one who has ever seen me before,” Lillian went on, with a quick look into.the long mirror above my dressing table, and an even more swift averting of her face as she saw her reflection there, a face, like the “Painted Lady's,” shorn of its makeup and crown of dyed hair. “But I've got to meet it some time, and I'd rather meet it first with vou than with any one else, I haven’t seen a soul except Harry and Betty since 1 began my transformation, until today—just couldn’t bear to make the plunge.” “You understood, of course, that the Durkees were coming,’ 1 sald, more for the sake of making conver- sation than because I doubted her knowledge. “Yes, I know,” she returned, “but they are not formidable enough to keep me away from you. I've known Alfred Durkee since he was a lad, and his mother's a dear, the most kindly, tactful little woman in the world. I couldn’t have better people around me when I re-enter my little world as an old woman. It isn’t as if there were going to be real strangers here. “Lillian!” I cried gharply. “Don’t allude to yvourself as an old woman again. “You know it isn’t true, and it hurts me. Just wait a few weeks until, your hair gets really gray and vour face fills out, and you'll be won- derful. I know it. Are.you not being a bit oversensitive just now?” i Lillan’s Strange Cry. 1 was talking frantically against time, wondering how I should break the news to her that there was to be a stranger at our dinner, and that stranger Robert Gordon, the man of mystery, who had shown such an un- accountable interest in me. Lillian’s intuition, which to me seems almost uncanny at times, must have told her that I was worried about something, for she came toward me and put her hands on my shoul- ders. 4 ’ i “What is it, child?” she asked soft- ly. “Something is troubling you, I can see that.” “Oh. Lillian, T am so sorry,” I burst out, “but I couldn’t help it, really, I couldn’t. You see, he only telephoned this morning that he was coming, and it was too late to get you then.” “He? Who?” Lillian interrupted -my incoherent explanation with a stacca- to note. “Why, Robert—" I stammered. She did not give me time to finish the name, but took the words from my mouth with a little despairing cry, so unlike Lillian Underwood that I gazed at her in amazement. “Not Robert Savarin!” she said. “Oh, Madge, anybody but him! I cquld not bear him to see me this way, and hear the comments Harry makes sometimes.” 1 put aside my own bewilderment in order to rally to the necessity of re- assuring Lillian. “Not Rovert Savarin,” I said sharp- 1y, “Robert Gordon, you remember, the man who so annoyed me that day when you helped me buy my hat.” . Lillian quickly recovered herself, Fiac R o' X ORDER of Your GROCER W. H. Miner Chocelate Co. SPRINGFIELD, MASS. NEW BRXTA!N' DALY HERALD, MONDAY, APRIL 9, 1917. OF A WIFE By ADELE GARRISON “I wouldn't blame you, Margaret, it vou thought I was going into .my dotage,” she sgaid, “but I've been through so much indoors the last two or three weeks that I'm hardly re~' sponsible for anything I may say or; do. But I'll promise you not to make | things any more uncomfortable for| you than I can possibly help. I shan't: mind Robert Gordon: in fact, I shall be glad of the opportunity to study him. He hasn't eyes or ears for any- | body but you, anyway, so he’ll never | know how I look.” What Madge Guessed, I flushed painfully at this refer- ence of Lillian’'s to the attraction which I appeared to have for Robert Gordon, the man who had known my mother and father.so well. I won- dered shrewdly, too, if Lillian had not purposely spoken as she did of Robert Gordon in order to divert my attention from her display of emotion at the name of Robert Savarin.. But an instant later I was ashamed of my own conjecture. -Almost any other woman might have resorted to such subterfuge, but not Lllian. She was capable of almost Machiavellian cunning in serving a friend, but she could not use even a petty subterfuge to disguise her own ‘feelings. My mother-in-law’s decided knock and subsequent hurried entrance with- out waiting for my ‘“come in” broke the emotional tension under which we were laboring. “Margaret, didn't you rec Katie's message?"” she demanded, as if I were a small, refractory schoolgirl. “The Durkees have been here for some time, and if it had not been for me, Mrs, Durkee would still be sitting downstairs with her wraps on.” “Oh, I'm so sorry,” I =aid con- tritely. ““I %ill go directly to her,” and I hastened out of the room leav- ing Lillian and my mother-in-law to- gether. I knew Lillian would prefer that the elder woman’s keen, critical eyes should fiyst see her altered ap- pearance with no witnesses present. But pounding against my bralin was the same query that had come to me upon the night of our return from the Catskills, when, in the little cafe where the Underwoods and we were supping, Lillilan had displayed such an unaccountable though controlled emotion at the name of Robert Savarin, the artist recluse whom we had discovered in our mountain re- treat. What was the link between these two? FRANK McINTYRE IN BIG FILM FEATURE Frank Mclntyre, the popular actor, will be seen during the first half of the current week at Keeney's in a picturization of his greatest stage success; “The Traveling Salesman.” The picture is one of the best Para- mount releases secured for the lo- cal theater in a number of weeks. During the last three days the fea- ture picture will be “The Right Di- rection,” Vivian Martin playing the leading role. Tonight there will be a new episode in “The Purple Mask,” and on Thurs. day and Friday the film program will be topped by additional chapters in “The Mpystery of the Double Cross™ serfal. There will be the usual vaude- ville show in addition. Household Notes | No kind of fish is good to eat un- less the flesh is firm, All raw foodstuffs should be washed before eating. A few raisins added to the brown jbread give it a new flavor. Keep all sinks and drain pipes well cleaned and disinfected. Levt-over veal is delicious minced, creamed and served on toast. Whole cereals are the starchy foods which supply most iron. The most valuable meat for emic people is said to be beef. an- Stale cake can be soaked in and made up into gingerbread. The best way to keep tooth brushes antiseptic is to let them dry out in the sun at least once a week. milk In these days of paper economy it iz a good idea to let the children save the wrapping paper and make pads jof it. ; i | A flannel dipped in a little am- { monia and rubbed on a white spot on i polished furniture will remove the spot. ! This is the time of year to clean | up outside premises and sprinkle lime where it is most needed in damp ! places, ‘ Tt cooking utensils are filled with | water as soon as they are emptied | there will be much less time required for cleaning them. i String sets of buttons on fine wire when vou put them away and you !save a lot of time when you start to . hunt in the button box. ! On ironing day, when the stove should not be spattered 'with grease, plan a dinner that can be cooked in ¢ the oven. HERE’S ONE FOR THE SEASON’S GOLF GIRL FOR THE LINKS. Gingersnap jersey, cut Norfolk with conspicuously interesting pockets made to secure a ball, develops this | guit, which may be worn for general sports. Two toned sport ties are still popular this season. NAYLOR PLAYERS IN “THE DUMMY” A real Metropolitan success is the offering of the Walter Naylor Players at the Lyceum for Easter week. “The Dummy” is a detective comedy of the most modern type. Founded on the popular “Barney” stories which ran in Colliep’s Weekly for some time, it is devoid of the ridiculous situations £6 common to so many so-called de- tective plays. At two dollars a seat, New York considered it one of the season’”s best productions and Direc- tor Naylor feels certain that local theatergoers will vote it the best pro- duction of the current season at the Lyceum. Philip Quin as Walter Bab- bing, a real sleuth and Ralph Mur- phy as the messenger boy who would emulate him have perhaps thus far afforded them, while Smythe Wallace has one of those roles in which he always excells. Miss Perry, the An- tel sisters and Miss Dow as well as the rest of the company will be seen to very good advantage.

SIDE TALKS | BY RUTH CAMERON She Envies Her Daughter. - : “Don’t you know why they don't get along together?” said my neighbor when I spoke of a mother | ‘and her married daughter who do not : seem to find any happiness in each other. “No.” “Why, Mrs. 8. is envious, because Edith is so prosperous and has so much more’ than she does.” { “Envious of her own daughter? It isn’'t possible. Besides she did ev- erything in the world to get Edith married well. Why should she be disappointed when she succeeded.” She Tried to Marry Her Well But— “Because that’'s her nature. You don’t know her as well as I do. She’s always bitter against anyone who is too prospérous. And now that Edith has two or three maids and a beautiful big house, while she does her own work and lives in an apart- ment, she can’t help resenting it even if it is her own daughter. You don’t believe me, I know, but you should hear the way she speaks about her sometimes. She’s proud of her pros- perity and likes other people to know about it, and yet she resents it.” It was hard to believe, and yet as I thought it over, put two and two together, remembered expressions I had sometimes seen on Mrs. S's face, and tones I had heard in her voice. I realized that it might easily be true. you can, you have indeed left behind one of the commonest of human frailities. 3 500,000 BATHE INTERNALLY The marvelous growth of Internal Bath- ing since the advent of “J.

Efficient. ] Above Envy. It seems terrible that envy should enter into what ought to be so per- fect a love ad that between mother and daughter doesn’t it? But I am afraid envy is a more pervasive and dominant characteristic than most of us realize. Many times envy does not come out into the open and reveal itself as such. Oftentimes it appears under the mask of antagonism or antipathy. Take a Look at Your Antagonisms. Try to be perfectly honest with vourself. Hold up some of your an- tagonisms to the light of strict analy- sis and ask yourself,—why do I dis- like this person? Why do I find myself offended in him by things that in others I would not notice? ‘Why do I assign unworthy motives to everything he does, look for snob- bery in his friendship and patron- age in his charity? Is there any taint of envy that is thus coloring my judgments? Is he more success- ful than I, socially, or financially, or in some other direction that in my secret heart I envy. Here is another sign post of envy, —did you ever find yourself feeling unaccountably pleased when some- one who has been terribly prosperous meets some kind of a cropper? Perhaps vou can exculpate your- self from all these meannesses.
