The nurse scrupulously observed my request to be left ne, and I had time to fight out battle with myself, with all its racking .actom- paniment of tears and sobs. ‘At last I conquered the first wild rage which I had experienced upon seeing Dicky pay for the hat he had Just selected for “Edith,” the pretty art student from ' Virginia, and realised that I must do nothing has- y, and that, above all, I must not let Mrs, Durkee guess my secret. She is a dear, sweet little woman and I am very fond of her. But she has neither worldly wisdom nor the discretion of Lilllan Underwood. Without meaning it, I was afraid she might let slip some hint of my trouble if she knew anything about it. How I longed for Lilllan! But with Mrs. Durkee on my hands I knew there was no chance for me to .se Lilllan within' the next few hobrs. BSee- her I would, however, I deter- mined, the first moment I could call my own. The first thing, of course, was to get myself into some kind ;of physical shape. I rose from the cot and walked, unsteadily enough but still surely, to the door and beckoned to the nurse. She came at once and with rare understanding began to minister to me—without appearing to notice the ravages my starm of rage and grief had made upon me. She bathed my fhce and hands, ar- ed my hair, brought me a bowl of \delicious hot broth and a cup of strong coffee and made me take them, and then, assisting me with my wraps and putting an extra heavy coat of her own around me, went with me to a little balcony outside the emergency room, where the fresh winter afr re- vived me more than anything else. Madge Reviews Her Problem. “git here a few minutes,” she said kindly, drawing a big veranda chair forward, and tucking a rug about my feet. “I will tell your friend where you are when she comes.” ““Thank you,” I said gratetully, and then, braced physically and mentally, I reviewed my problem. There was but one thing which did not fit in with the shameful explana- tion, the only one that appeared possible to me of Dicky’s purchase of the beautiful hat for his little Vir- ginla friend, and that was the inno- cent, childlike’appearance of the girl. 1 pride myself upon my Jjustness, and even through the jealous rage ‘which consumed me when I saw her on such intimate terms with my hus- band, I had to admit that she wasn’t at all the type of woman one would imagine would accept clothing from a man friend. She was the embodi- ment of all that was gentle and good, or at least that was what any chance observer would read in her flower- Hke face, and the patrician traditions of her native state showed in every line, every movement, of her body, and in the low-pitched sweetness of her volce, But One Possible Explanation? ‘Was it possible that she was so utterly unsophisticated that she dia not know what Dicky would under- stand by her acceptance of siuch cost- ly clothing as he had bought? The question flashed into my mind, and then I laughed aloud in derision of the idea. Besides, such innocence and ignorance on her part would make Dicky that most despicable of all villians, the ensnarer of a young and ignorant girl, and that I knew was something that would be utterly foreign to him. No, I declared, there was but one possible explanation for the thing I was the best way for me to manage the separation from my husband which I knew must follow. For to remain with him, facing the knowledge which had just come to me, was impossible. Some women might be able to. do it, to go on, but not I. And yet— I do not know from wh.neo came the urgent insistence that I wait for a little while before bringing the matter to an issue with my husbend. I have thought since that Providence itself stayed me from going at once to Dicky. with my knowledge, as in my first m.-ndrrul 1 had thought af doing. By the time Mrs. Durkee came back I had carefully planned my next pro- Ceeding. Not even Lilllan Under- wood, I decided, could help me. I must do the min‘ I had set myself to do alone. KEENEY ACTOR DID HIS BIT IN FRANCE Peter J. Brooks, the ariginator of the sketch, Which is serving as the headline vaudeville act at 'Keeney's, did his “bit” in the war for humanity, having fought with the British in France be- fore coming to America to offer his patriotic em&ion Brooks wrote the act while in’the trenches . and th characters in the skit are representa- tive of the English cockney, the Scotchman in kilts and the Canadian, all types with which he was assoclated in the battles in whish he participat- ed. He has created an entertaining novelty and it should meet with gen- eral approval on the entire circuit. The Excelsior models and John Clark also offer acts that find favor. Thé photoplay leaders for tonight will include Blanche Sweet in “Unto Those Who 8in” and Ruth Roland’ in “The Neglected Wife.”” .There will be other good flims. 2 Menu for Tomorrow Breakfast.

SIDE_TALKS - Those Wond erful Quivers A famous playwright once said that it any one would give him the thirty seconds of thrill that have to be at the Neart and climax of every good play he would write the play around it and divide the proceeds. I thought of that the other day- The Authorman had been reading = life of Patrick Henry and came to his famous speech. The Authorman who had been si- lent over his book while we had been chatting| suddnly kindled into . life at that passage. ‘“Listen,” he broke in, “Doesn’t this start your blood to coursing?’ and then he declaimed aloud: / “Why stand we here idle? What ‘is it that the gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear or peace 50 sweet as to be purchased at the price of cHains and slavery. Forbid 1t, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take, but as for me, give me liberty or give me death.” A Quiver That Came Across a Oentury. ‘When he finished the Cynic cried “Bravo” in a voice whase tremor paid the most eloquent of tribiites to the dead orator's eloquence and Molly cried: “Doean’t that make the loveliest quivers go all over you?” And we one and all agreed that It. did. % We Oan Get Them for Nothing at the Public Library. -Just think of it, these very quivers for which the playwright was willing to pay 80 highly we can really get right out of a book from the public library. - There they are, those wonderful quivers that light up the common- placeness of our existence Illke a. lightning flash, waiting for us be- tween hundreds of book bindings. Get the book that tells how Flor- ence Nightingale stood twenty hours at a stretch watching the wounded soldiers being brought in. And He Could Only Work for Three / ‘Minutes. Get the biography that tells how Prancis Parkman strpggled aguinst the handicaps of eyes 80 feeble that he could only work three minutes at a time, and in spite of it wrote vol- ume after volume of immortal his- tory. To feel one of these quivers of ad- miration is.to be for a moment on one of the mountains tops of exis- tence. We must, by the nature of things, live in the valieys or perhaps at best on the plateaus, but it is #00d for the heart and soul to go up on the mountain tops once in a while. “Somewhere in France,” ) nn(edldemommtioll . e “ideal” in E : PUT MONEY IN THE FAMILY BANK ACCOUNT lnorda-u.fityoumflnemattuofnouehold Economics, we have ar- of the ol “IDEAL” FIRELESS COOK STOVE during:the aveek of June 25th.

C. ’PORTER, PATRIOTIC SHOW AT FOX'S THEATER Opening with a burst of patriotic enthusiasm seldom witnessed in a theater on any occasion, “The Eagle's ‘Wings” which is the feature of the present Fox program, created a deep far-reaching impression on those who watched its initial presentation yes- terday. This picture, which is being presented under the auspices of the New Britain Recrulting offices, is a mighty sermon on preparedness. Its scenes are laid in Washington, in the munitions factories of the United States, and at Columbus, New Mexico, where an extremely vivid reproduc- tion of the Mexican raid is shown. The story deals with the efforts of unscrupulous representatives of a certain foreign power to influence members of congress to kill the pre- paredness bill, so that their govern- ment can work deep and lasting in- juries to America with imunity. How they almi succeeded, and how un- foreseen events suddenly c erate with the defenders of the .bill to thwart the, enemy on the threshold of success are some of the vital points in this important drama of the hour. Among the other numbers on the program are the Pathe News, a rip- roaring Musty Suffer comedy, a very funny sketch in which Hughie Macic features, and the first episode of the best of all serials, ‘The Further Ad- ventures of Stingaree.” The feature for Sunday night 'is Buy an Indiapa truck—advt.
