Fascinating Parisian Novelty. “Puss-Puss” - With Its Kitten Chorus by o AR REVELATIONS How Dicky Gave Madge a Lovely Surprise, I trust that never again in my life #hall I be compelled to undergo such a night of terroy, such wier§, de- lirious dreams as fell to my lot in the twelve hours immediately suc- ceeding the accigent through which I was so painfully burned. The /kindly' old physicfan from Cresthaven had left a sedative with Lilllan to be given to me, but I might {as well have swallowed sweetened |*water for any effect it had on me. The lccation of my visions was al- ways the same, a dreary, dark forest, with parasite vines twining around the massive tree trunks, training from the limbs, with green-scumbed pools glittering evilly whenever stray . sun- beams, rare enough in that dark place, struck them. Never in my life have I seen anything like the place that haunted my visione, but it will live in my memory forever. And in the dreams that came to me that night, widely diverging as they were, I wag always conscious that somewhere 'ahead of me Dicky fled, hiding from me. And I, follaw- ing, was calling vainly to him, plead- ing pitifully that something—I could not understand myself what—was not my fault. But all the answer I re- celved was his mocking laugh, Dicky—Always Dicky. \ Dicky’s fiight and my pursuit of him ‘was the thorough-bass of ‘the com- position. Above it thrummed varying strains in which the people I .had kaown and loved or feared figured fantastically. Once I saw myself as a tiny child, walking between two shadowy figures, one of whom I recognized as my mother.” But not the little mother of my womanbood, the mother I lost just before I met Dicky. This was the young, happy mother of whom dim, fleeting remembrances cqme to me from time to timej the Jno her I had known as a child, ‘With the uncanny prescience - of dreams I knew that the other figure was that of the father I had never known, the father who had broken my mother's\heart. And yet—there was something strongly reminiscerit about him, something strongly reminiscent of some one else I knew, In my dream I strugzgied for re- membrance of the man of whom the dream father reminded me, but no recollection come. And ‘then the figures shifted, changed and, close becide me, was the mother of my later years, silver- haired, worn with suffering. In her shadow, so close as to have the effect of clinging to her, yet shrinking from me, was the same masculine figure I had seen before, only older, gray- AMERIGAN MOTHRES ADOPT NEW METHODS No Longer Scold and Nag Children.

OF A WIFE By ADELE GARRISON e haired, but-with the elusive, haunting aspect ‘of one known to me. My mother held out her arms to me, and with a joyful cry of ‘“Mother, mather,” 1 stumbled into them. But even as they closed around me I awoke with a despairing little cry to find Lillian's face bent close to-mine, to feel her strong, firm hands soothing me. *‘Where did my mother go?" I de- manded wildly. “She came back, you know, just now—in the forest.” “Yes, dear, I know,” Lillian an- swered. “But where is she?" “She will come again shortly. Drink this now, and\go to sleep again until she comes.” A Fantastic Ring. But before my lips had fairly touched the draught she proffered me 1 was back again in the dismal forest I had seen before. This time I had no vision, felt no wapt of *my mother. All around me were fantas- tic, shapes which terrified me and con- stantly hindered me in the pursuit of Dickn % Chattering, laughing, they sur- rounded me, and 1 recognized the faces of many pepple 1 had known. But high above tHe voices of the others rose the clear, bell-like laugh- ter of a woman. I shivered as I heard it, for it was the voice of Grace Draper, the beautiful girl whose mad infatuation for Dicky had led her to attempts upon Dicky’s life and mine as well as her-own, The fantastic rihg around me parted, and at last I saw Dicky look- ing at me with such horror in his gaze I cried out: “Oh Dicky! What is it?” But he would not answer me, only turned away, and the next moment Grace Draper floated down an aisle of the forest in the same sinuous move- ment that had characterized the daring dance she had ance given in our Marvin home, and put her arm around his neck. “She laughs best who laughs last.” Her mocking tones came back to me as she and my husband hurried away. I felt myself sinking to the ground with everything turning black before my eyes. Dicky’s voice -tnlned fearful, was the next thing I heard. 3 “She must be delirious. Isn't there danger? Lillian’s voice, calm, firm, answered: *No, she isn’t delirious, and there isn't any danger. She's experiencing the awful, fantastic dreams that come sometimes after a nervous shock. But I'd like to get her quiet. When she wakes the next time let her see 0 i 1 opened my eves with a glad little cry. “Oh, Dicky, she didn’t take you away after all.” “She? Who?” masculine awkwardness, Lillian give him an pinch. “I'd like to see anybody get me awhy from here,” he amended. “See here, sweetheart, if I hold on to you tight, and vou know I won't let go, don’t you think you can get to sleep right and stop dreaming?” “I know I can,” T returned with a little sigh of happiness. My assertion was justified. The clasp of Dicky’s hand on mine ban- ished the dreams effectually. But one memory lingered. Even as I sank to sleep I imagined I could hear Grace Draper saying again: “She laughs best who laughs last.” A.
