Dicky turned from the telephone, his face and eyes betraying the en- thusiasm with which he always greets a proposition pleasing to him. He spoke to me hurriedly, still holding the receiver to his ear. “The Durkees want us to go with them and give those old houses the once over this afternoon,” he said, “and then have supper at their house, What do you say?” “Tell them I'd love to,” I responded proniptly, 'and meant exactly what I said, for 1 enjoy the company of the Durkees very much, and I knew by experience that one of Mrs. Durkee's Sunday night suppers was worth a longer trip than the distance from our home to theirs. “The miss vs she'll be chawmed,” Dicky winked at me im- pudently as he spoke the words into the.receiver. He knows that I detest having him call me “the missus,’ & favorite pleasantry of his, and that I also dislike the word *‘charmed,” be- cause of its ridiculous overuse on all occasions by all sorts and conditions of people. But I made no sign of dis- taste, no effore to correct Dicky’s dic- tion, as I probably would have done a year ago. Life with Dicky, with its big problems, has taught me to over- look many minor annoyances. “We'll be over before 3 o’clock,” Dicky assured his friend at the other end of the telephone, and hung up the reeciver. “Alf’s getting in a bit of a wax over those two houses, afraid some one'll beat us to 'em,”’ he grumbled as he turned to me. “He needn't worry, we're probably the only two suckers in all Long Island that would look at "em. Birdsall's been filling him up with dope about the dozens of eager would- be purchasers from New York that he’s holding back on our account, and Alf's swallowing it whole. ~ But we might as well look the places over and decide the matter without any more fuss. Don’t you think so ” “Will Do No Harm.” 1 was careful not to smile at the un- conscious irony of Dicky's asking me to decide about having a house of our own as I answered him. When I had } broached the subject as a cherished dream of mine he had ridiculed me so effectually that T made up my mind never to open my mouth upon the subject again. But when Alfred Dur- kee had told him'of two attractive old neighboring houses near the big new golf club, one of which he wished to buy himself, Dicky had completely faced about, and appeared quite favor- ably impressed with the project. 1 knew my husband well enough not to display the slightest sign of exultation at the prospece of realizing my long cherished desire. 1t certainly will do no harm to look the places over,” I said quietly. Dicky grinned in mischievous com- prehension of my real feelings. “Terribly indifférent to prospect of hause of her own ,isn't she?” he teased. “What's the matter? Afraid 1 might renig on the whole deal if you showed any undue enehusiasm?" “Perhaps,” I said demurely, and Dicky chuckled. He was in high good humor ,and I hoped devoutly that nothing would occur to dampen his spirits before he made the final de- cision concerning the house. It was not that I was unusually attracted by the house at which we were to look, but T longed for some place which should be a real home, from which no landlord could turn us from our own “‘roof tree.” Grace Draper’s Message, the respite from thought which the house inspecting ttip wauld give us, for 1 had been much worried over my father's affairs since returning home from Lillian Un- derwood’s. The slurring reference to him in Harry Underwood's letter with its hints of “iIntrigues,’’ ‘‘conspiracies’” and “private graft” had brought back to my mind the visit to our home of Mr. Drake and the terror with which T had learned that he was seeking my father far some unknown, and, I feared, sinister reason. And the knowledge that Grace raper was in the %ame country with Draper was in the same country with him. My instinct told me that no matter what new interests came into her life, Grace Draper’s strongest passion was to see me humiliated and grief-stricken. I knew her to be ab- solutely unscrupulous, and while it ap- 1 was glad of !lllmIllml!ll!IIIIMIHIIIH"II!Illmlfil|IIIINIIUHIIHMII)IM!llllllltlflllllllll = e Vacationists!!

And vet I was not sure that his departure from Lillian's life would nat prove a blessing in the end As I dressed and arranged my hair in preparation for our trip with the Durkees an uncanny premonition of trouble with Grace Draper persisted in haunting me.

Walthall in “The Saint's Adventure.” Everyone knows Henry B. Walthall the greatest star in pictures today, hav- ing won his laurels as leading man in “The Birth of a Nation.” This is one of the most fascinating stories ever screened. Rapid action and beautiful scenic effects make this plc- ture of Fate's playvthings delightful and as Henry B. Walthall has the lead you can be assured of some won- derful acting on his part. On the same program will be another of the O. Henry which is meeting with public approval, aleo the World Lit- erary which is very interesting and educational. See it once and you will want to see it every week. On Friday and Saturday another Triangle production will be offered featuring E. K. Lincoln in “Might and the as boast which she sent me when she wished me to believe she was with Dicky in ‘San Francisco. ‘‘She laughs best who laughs last.” JUVENILE SINGERS POPULAR THIS WEEK Probably one of the most charming little novelties in vaudeville is offered to patrons of Keeney's this week in the Juvenile Musical company, an ag- gregation ‘of little girls none of whom are over ten years of age. These chil- dren, all pupils in a dramatic school, are getting practical instruction through a summer road tour and they are entertaining vaudeville lovers with a series of songs and dances. They are talented youngsters and their work is very fascinating. There is not a grown-up on the stage during the act and the manner in which they render their program is a revelation in pre- cociousness. Bud Gray, the celebrated cyclist, is also at the theater this week. He is daily giving a remarkable demonstra- tion of his ability as a bicycle trickster. He is assisted by a young woman of considerable musical talent. Clark and Lewis offer a song and conversa- tion specialty . Tonight's film feature will be “The Bottle Imp,” in which Sessue Hava- kawa, the Japanese actor, is starred. There will be a new chapter in ““The Voice on the Wire” tanight and to- morrow and on the last three days the program will be topped by the Paranount special, “As Men Love.” i Fads and Fashions Sashes are worn on summer frocks. The long Russian blouse continues to be popular. Hats are almost masculine in their severity. . are made Angora sweaters on loose box lines. Pussy-willow taffeta is used for en- tire silk suits. « The blouse that extends below the belt is fashionable. There are tub frocks with waist and skirt separate. Organdy frocks are made up with knife-pleated skirts. A tan straw hat is more becoming when faced with black.

ANITA STEWART IN CLOVER’'S REBELLION Anita Stewart, the universally recognized screen favorite, has reached the climax of her successful career in her latest release, ‘‘Clover’s Rebellion,” which is the feature of the Fox program for today and to- morrow. This picture, which comes from the versatile pen of James Oliver Curwood, the famous novelist, is a distinct departure from anything that has ever been produced in motion pictures. Miss Stewart plays the part of Clover Dean, a wealthy orphan, who, after the death of her parents. is sent to live with her uncle -and aunt. By unscrupulous scheming, they decide to use her to further their own interests, but disagree as to the manner. The aunt works hard to make her marry a title, while the uncle urges wealth as the issue. Clover herself remains indifferent, until she meets young Dr. Bill Dunn, a happy-go-lucky vouth who is low in funds, but high in hopes. Bill adds a great messure of comedy by his interpretation of the situation and the means he uses to win Clover for himself. “‘Clover's Rebellion” is a picture that will jump into immediate popularity. . “An Eye for An Eye” is the rather ominous title of the fifth of the “Ad- ventures of Stingaree,” which is an added attraction on the bill. In this episode of the popular series, Sting- aree, the gentleman bandit, performs a few tricks with a dishonest gambler that are worth seeing. A screaming two-reel Fox comedy, ‘“The Milk-fed Vamp,” will be the comedy feature, and a new and superior news service, “The American News Weekly,” will bring the latest world activities in an- imated form. Extensive preparations are being made for a worthy pre- sentation of ‘“The Masque of Life the stupendous seven-act production of circus and court life which is to be exhibited by special engagement with the producers for three days, July 29, 30 and 31.

A dear old lady whom I know went recently to visit her daughter and her children in another stat She had a beautiful visit but came home looking very tired. After a time the reason came out. She is used to sleeping in a large bed. Her daughter's home is small and full of children and she slept on a couch. “It was a very comfortable couch, she said in quick defense of any un- spoken criticism, *‘but the last few vears I can’t seem to sleep as well on a couch. I like a headboard and a footboard somehow. I know I'm foolish but old folks are apt to be that way. And then I slept in the room with Roderick and I'm not used to sleeping in the room with anyone.” I Abuse My Privileges. “Did Roderick sleep on a couch too?"” I asked (I have a close friend's privileges and T was minded to take advantage of them). “Oh, no, he has a bed.” “I should think he wouldn't mind sleeping on the couch and letting you have hig bed.” “Oh well,"” she said, “I don't think his mother would want to move him. He catches cold awfully easy. Any- way it was a very comfortable couch. It was just my fault.” Surely this is the century of child. The Child Comes First Nowadays. »I quote that incident because it was typical. This is the day when not only the child’s development but his comfort and his pleasure are put above the comfort and pleasure of older people. Look back at your own youth. When grandmother came to visit and the home was full. who slept on the couch, you or grandmother? More Likely You Curled Up On the Sofa. Indeed you were lucky if you had a comfortable couch to sleep on. Couches weren't so plenty then.

However, what of that? I wase young. I could stand it and I soon forgot it. And it cer- tainly would never have occurred to the family to ask the visiting relative to sleep in the chair.
