" News For REVELATIONS By ADELE How Dicky Came to Madge and Made His Mcaning Clear. | Ky with a feel- he uttered his | atie. The crude- ness of his words and the utter lack of feeling displayed revolted me. I knew that the constant presence of children irritated him, and 1 had fear- ; ed his displeasure at my revelation of | the secret which Katie and Jim the faithful couple who took care of our home, had kept from us, the secret of Katie’s prospective motherhood. But 1 had not expected the vehement vul- i garity with which he had greeted my news. He saw my involuntary movement away from him, and his face flushed. ! “Poor Lady Prim, tied ‘to such 2 | rude, coarse brute!” he said mocking- ly. “She’ll not allow even the hem of | her gown to touch him, so she won't. I winced. When Dicky takes that patronizing, mocking tone with me T feel as if some raw spot in my soul had been flicked with a whip lash. He well knows too, the effect his ironic pleasantries have upon me and when- ever I offend him he is very prone to indulge himself in ridicule of me, more or less covert. And T had been foolish enought Lo hope that the tenderness and courtesy which Dickey had shown me in our “second honeymoon” following his long absence in California might con- tinue. I had thought that he was radically changed. I saw now that he had only been indulging himself in an emotional remorsefulness, for the stupid, utterly unreasonable jealousy which had driven him to San Francisco, and condemned me to such misery. He was the same thoughtless, essen- tially selfish man he had been. I re- flected drearily that the softening, up- lifting influence a wife was supposed to have over a husband was evident- ly a minus quantity in my case. And the emphatic coarse phrasing “Well if that isn’t the limit! You're shouting she’ll go. No squalling brat about my house!” piled the clods upon a grave, the mound of a secret hope I had al- ways cherished that some day tiny, clinging hands would take hold of Dicky's soul and make him the man he was meant to be. g These were his real sentiments' There was no mistaking the disgust in his tone. At the full realization of what his attitude meant to me I shook as with a nervous chill. T re- alized that I must get out of the room or I would disgrace myself in Dicky's eyves by a burst of hysterical weeping. I don’t remember how I got out of the room and into the shelter of my own. But I do remember locking the door and methodically exchanging my clothing for my night attire. and a bath robe before I crept into bed. My childhood never held the experience of being whipped and sent to bed, but I believe I know just how great the longing for the warmth and shelter of one’s bed the heart of such a child must hold. But Now. The blessed tears of relief did not come to me after all. I lay shaking with the cold feeling that I would never bg warm again. I had not;Tealized the strength of the potential motherhood within me, until my husband’s words, the revela- tion of his real feelings upon the sub- ject awakened it. I had been content to wait for woman’s precious heritage until the inevitable first adjustments and disillusionments of marital life were past. But never for an instant | had I faced the prospect which nolw | stretched its dreary length before me. | Curiously enough it had never entered | my mind during Dicky's long absence {in San Francisco. The anguish I had suffered on his account had left no { room for any other sorrow. But now! Never to feel soft baby hands upon my face, or pulling at my hair! Never | to cradle within my arms a helpless, little creature of my own flesh! Never | to see clear, childish eyes. looking fearlessly and adoringly into mine! | Never to have the blessed privilege of watching the unfolding of that most wonderful blossom, the soul of a little | child. A sharp little cry of agony escaped my lips, which I instantly stifled in my pillow. And then I heard my hus- band's voice. low, tender, penitent, be- side my door. g “Sweetheart, talk to you.” What Dicky Said. At the sight of my face as I open- ed the door he gave a remorseful ex- clamation and catching me up in his arms he bore me to a large arm chair | in which he sat down, holding me | tenderly. i For some moments he sat silently stroking my hair, with his lips pre i ed against my cheek. Then he spo! with tender remorsefulness. “Tt has just penetrated to my alleg- ! ed brain how you might have taken that speech of mine about Katie. You didnw’t imagine that I would have the same feeling if after s while a child | should come to us, did you dear?” I could only shudder and cling closer to him. | “I was afraid so.”* His veice held o | shocked comprehension of what I had felt. “Now let me tell you something, first giving notice that as a penance for my stupidity I'll not fire Katie if she presents us with twins.” T realized that he was talking light- Iy to hind the genuine feeling he was experiencing, and I listened breath- lessly for his next words. “Little wife,” he whispered, after another long silence. ‘Tl tell you frankly that 1 don’t want you tled down with the care of a baby just yet. But don't you ever get it into your head that I won’t be just as dafty as you are when the time comes for us I shrank from D ing of repugnance ultimatum agains let me in! I want to OF A WIFE GARRISON to have a little kiddie all our own.” Common sense, my knowledge of Dicky told me that he was uncon- sciously deceiving himself, that hi words were born of remorse for his boorishness But womanlike, I waved aside tha future, and snuggled happily in my husband’s arms.

Blame her! \ In fact nature is to hlame for al these temperament tragedies, and those who suffer from them should have our sympathy.
