That you, Madge? Yoy didn’t tell me this morning you ex- pected to come into town today.” There was both surprise and a trace of irrijation in Dicky's voice as his answer came over the telephone. “I didn’t know it myself until after you left this morning.” I returned smoothly. “Mrs. Durkee called me up and asked me to come in for a day’s shopping.” : “Shopping!” Where did you shop?” There was something beside irrita- tion in Dicky’s voice now. I felt that he was afrald of my answer, “Tracy’s,” I answered, salving my conscience with the assurance that we had stepped into Tracy's, even bought some handkerchiefs at one of the counters. “In fact, I'm telephon- ing from there now.” / “Oh!" Dicky’s voice held a distinct note of relief. . I knew that he had been afraid I would say Hambel But it was no part of my plan to pu him on his guard by admitting that I had been in Hambel's store during the day. I wanted to see his face when he should learn by my sfory of the day’s adventures that I must have been a witness of his shopping. ex- pedition iwith “Edith.” ‘“Have you been shopping -{{ day?" he went on. ‘“You must be terribly tired. ‘With a swift, fierce pang at my heart I understood. He did not wish me to remain in town for the evening. He probably had planned to spend it with “Edith,” for whom but a few hours ago he had so blithely bought an expensive hak and suit. And he would probably telephone me, as he had done sa many times before in the last few. weeks, that he had an ‘“en- gagement with an art editor.” “Ticlled to Death.” A Jjealous rage as primitive as that felt by any prehistoric woman seized me. I longed to shriek my ‘Rnow- ledge of his actions over the. tele. phone. ' But I put it away from me, firmly, compelled my vaice to natural- ness. I knew that Mrs Durkee was telephoning her son, making arrange- ments for the four of us to stay in town and have dinner at some res- taurant. I knew that Dicky could hardly help acquiescing in’ the plan, on account of the Durkees, even if he wished to put so pronounced a Alight upon me. Sa I answered him with just the right amount of conjugal friendliness in my tone: —— “Why, no. I am not tired at all. In fact, Mrs, Durkee is telephoning Alfred now, to ask him to stay in for dinner, and ‘perhaps a play, or vaude- ville. I was to ask you about it. Of course, you-can ga.r We don't often come into town, you know.” Dicky muttered something, the words of which I could only half- catch, and which he evidently believed I could not hear. “What did you say?" I asked sweet- Iy. “Nothing, except to try to get a better comnection from central,” my husband. replied promptly and men- daciously. ‘“You're shouting I can go!

That's the time Mrs. Durke. thought would be best.” “Fine business!” returned Dicky en- thusiastically, and with amazement I noted that there wasn’t the slightest sign of reluctance or distaste in his manner. Any one would have sworn that he was eager for the proposed expedition. ‘All Tight,” I said laconically. you at that time. leath! "Good-by." and I heard a click of the receiver, then an explosive, vigor- ous “Damn it,” from Dicky's lips, and a second click. I knew what had happened as well as if I had been at Dicky’s side. He had kept up his pretensé of being pleased with our plan to the very last moment. Th he had hung up the receiver, as he supposed, uttered the cath which expressed his real senti- ments,and then discovered that in his impetuous turning -away from the telephone he had not secured the re- ceiver properly. Hence the second click. I -did mot know until I heard the vigorous oath that, woman-like, I had hoped against hope .that there was some unexplained reason for the scene I had witnessed in depart- ment store, and that Dicky's apparent pleasure in our proposed evening to- gether was genuine. But the treacherous telephone re- ceiver had betrayed him. I faced the knowledge that my husband was ab- solutely dismayed at the prospect of spending the evening with me, instead = [ of the way he had planned. SIDE TALKS Their Old Clothes Is there any place, left where one can wear out one's old clothes? There was a time,—and not so many years ago,—when one wore out one’s Qld clothes camping, or on the summer, vacation, or working in the garden. - Now there are special out- fits for gardening, and as for the sum- mer vacation or the camping trip, well—her what & friend of mine told .me her women companions on a recent camping trip wore. On a Fishing and Camping Trip. 'In the first place they had sport skirts, instead of the old skirts we used to put aside for such expeditions. Then, instead of the old waists that used to be saved for such occasions, or the inexpensive middies that later took their place, they had the dainti- est of smocks. ; One 'woman had a silk sweater (a dark .one bought spe: ly for camp- ing, she already had a rose colored one for dress-up), another had the latest in white sport sweaters. The Original Sport Hat. For hats they had, of course, the ubiquitous sport hat. Did any article of dress ever develop from such small beginnings to such lengths of cost- liness as the sport Mat? Do you re- member the granddaddy of all sport hats? It was thelittle white duck hat. It cost, I think, a quarter, or at the most, fifty cents. At first it was only plain white, then it began to be AID THE KIDNEYS Do Not Endanger Iife When a New Britain Oitizen Shows You the Way to Avold It Why will people continue to suffer the agonies backache, bladder disorders, lame- ness, headaches, languor, why allow themselves to become chronic in- valids, when a tested remedy is of- fered them?

SURATT DRAWING CROWDS TO FOX'S One of .the strangest stories that has ever been presented in moving picture form.is but a mild descrip- tion of ‘“The Siren,” which is the feature of the present F‘ox program. Valeska Suratt, the most interesting and best-dressed woman before the public today, plays the part of Cherry Millard, known as the woman with- out heart or soul, selfish, unscrupu- lous, and utterly’ without feeling for the welfare of anyone but herself. Compelled by circumstances to flee the scene of & cowardly ¢rime with which she was associated, she goes to a wild little town in- California, and soon becomes a notorious figure around the toughest dance hall and gambling den in the West. But there comes into her life & man known by no other name than “The Stranger,” and in him she meets her down-fall, just as she herself had caused the ruination of many others through her perfect selfishness. ‘‘The Siren” is the best picture that Miss Suratt has yet made, and she does some emotional work that is astonishing. In addition, it gives her new oppor- tynities for garbing herself in highly original and very artistic costumes. The comedy feature of the program 4 a laughable incident in the lives of the Newlyweds, as represented by Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, the pair at made domestic comedy a sereen success.

A torpedo fired by the submarine missed the vessel by less than 20 feet. The encounter occurred at mid- night, after the liner had been in the submarine zone many hours. A large number of the passengers on board ‘were reading in the cabins or lying in chairs on the deck, :ready for an emergency. A staft correspondent of the Asso- clated Press was talking with thé lieu- tenant in charge of the gun crews ‘when the gunners, who were crowding about the forward guns, and the ship's. officers on the bridge, sighted the: wake of a ‘torpedo as it went ‘spin- { ning toward the bow. The lieutenant' Jumped to his station as ,Lhe lookout cried, “Torpedo and submarine off starboard bow. The ship swung around so sharply that the decks weretilted to an angle of 20 degrees. Immediately there came the bark and flash of a gun. ,. Passengers, binding lifebelts about themselves, swarmed to the decks. The ship’s officers hurried among them, counseling calmness. Another. gun, this time pointed further astern, was fired, and the projectile in its flight struck a long. boom over the side, to which a log line was attached. The liner at that moment was wal- lowing between two great waves. The conning tower of the submarine, out- linéd for a moment against the sky, was all that was visible to the gunners in the darkness. The gunners soon lost sight of the ralder in the darkness, however, and were unable to tell whether Iny ot the' shots fired hit the mark.
