' News For Theaterdoers and Women Readers REVELATIONS OF A WIFE By ADELE GARRISON Katle Brings Strange News in the Morning. The dawning of the next morning, clear and sunshiny with the promise of approaching spring that March days so royally give sometimes, brought to us all a little doubt as to our theory of the wild happenings of the night before. Lillian’s little girl, Marion: Morton, haq been frightened by the appearance of a woman's face at her window. A little later while talking with Dicky in front of the hall door I had seen a shadow flit across the glass and the next moment a bullet had buried it- self in the wall behind me. We had determined that the unknown as- sailant must be Mrs. Allis, the des- perate woman'who once had called herself the wife of Robert Savarin and whom he had seen looking out of the window of the train which brought him to Marvin. The theory had appeared plausible the night before, but the calcium of the morning sunlight turned upon it was a different matter. Dicky was the first to utter a doubt aloud. “I say, Madge,” he said abruptly as he stood brushing his hair before the mirror—we were sharing his mother’s room, having given our own up to aur guests—‘‘don’t’ you thank we were a bit premature last night about sad- dling Mrs, Allis with that melodrama- tic movie stunt? That kid of Lil's is just as imaginative as they make 'em, nerves strung as taut as a violin cord. She might very easily Dbe mistaken about seeing a woman’s face. Don't you think so?" «That Doesn’t Explain.” “ye—es,” I_agreed slowly, for the same thought had come to me in the morning. “But that doesn't explain the pistol shot and the shadow on the glass.” “No, but yowll find that there's some good explanation of those things. There must have been some one loose last night, perhaps some drunk shoot- ing up the village. We'll hear from it later in the day, I'll wager.” My common sense told me that Dicky was probably Tight, but a little fenr, a recollection of Lillian’s face when she moved Marion’s bed out of range of the window, made me utter a protest against settling the matter in this off-hand fashion. “I don’t think you can make Lillia¥ believe it was some drunken marau- der,” T said. “Nonsense!” Dicky returned, “Lil's got as sound a headpiece as any per- son, man or woman, 1 ever saw. Of course, T'll admit she’s a bit off her feed now about that kid; she can't think straight where Marion is con- cerned. But you'll find she’ll admit she is mistaken before the day is out.” 1 said nothing more, but at break- fast I watched both Lillian and Robert Savarin narrowly as Dicky aired his theory of the events af the night be- fore. Marion was not at the break- fast table, for I had forbidden Lillian’s arousing the sleepy little thing, who, entirely 1 was sure, was worn out from her | fright of the night before, so that our talk was unhampered by her presence. “Oh, Mrs. Graham!” “I am inclined to think you are right, Mr. Graham,” the artist said cagerly, and I knew that the wish was indeed father to the thought in his | case. I understood just how much he must dread the reappeaerance in his life of the woman who had come so near to blotting him forever from life and its joys, realized how much he must welcome the suggestion that some one else was the cause of our terror the night before. But Lillian stood firm in her belief that Mrs. Allis and no other was re- sponsible for the pistol shot that came so near to killing me. "I realized that your explanation is the reasonable one,” she said wearily to Dicky, “but I cannot help suf’king to my theory.” ‘Just like a woman,” Dicky threw at her mischievously. It was a slogan which he knew usually roused Lilliun . to one_of the bursts of briffiant in- vestive in which he delighted. But she refused to take the cue. “No doubt,” she said dryly, and Dicky’s reply was forestalled by Katie, who Tushed into the room with her uspal impetuosity, evidently bubbling over With news of some kind. Oh, Missis Graham!" she ex- clalmed, and I might as well have tried to stop Niagara as to stem the torrent of her words or to make her under- stand that the breakfast table with Buests present was no time for her ' news telling. “Jim, he joost coom from Crest Haven, and dey got crazy 'rnan down dere, he 8ot out from sylum vesterday, stole some pistols, and raise one hell all 'round town all night. Jim he say he shoot windows of pretty near dozen peoples before dey get heem. Jim he say nothing about him shooting here, for he tink | de neighbors no hear heem, an’ he say vot folks don’t know about our bizness von’t hurt dem.” FALL TROTTEURS ARE ALREADY APPEARING UP TO THE MINUTE, Navy blue twill serge, cut with an {old bodice so securely buttoned and strapped down, drapes well in this un- usual skirt.

The reader friend who sent me four poems to find has had three af thém placed already. The explanation of “he will never set the river on fire” has arrived from two sources and I am publishing it because I think it is of general in- terest: - “I have always heard it quoted,” writes my letter friend, “‘he will never set the Thames on fire, and I think this latter is correct, as you will see. What “He Will Never Set the River on Fire” Means. “In olden times they used to grind the wheat between two stones, one larger with a deep hollow for the wheat and then a smaller stone that fitted into the hollow. This smaller stone had a handle and was turred round and round in the hollow of the larger cne to make the flour. This old-fashio~ed flour mill was called a “themse,” and anyone who was very energetic v-ry often got the grain on fire. So the saying origirst:d ‘he will never set the Theme on fire’ meaning he was too slow or lazy. In time, owing to the similarity of pro- nounciation, “Themse” was spelt “Thames” and people, not knowing the origin, of course thought it was the river Thames that was meant.” Can You Fill in These Blanks. “Can you tell me where I can find the poem which contains the (alas very few words: ound Again. “‘With just enough of: a woman fair And just enough of. that God is there’ " is the request of another reader. “About two years or more ago,” writes a loser, “I subscribed for the different magazines and in one of them I read a very pleasing story called “Bridget of the Many Curls.’ In it was a lonely man who befriend- ed her by giving her books to read; a very quaint man who was called ‘Paddy,’ who herded .geese; Johnny, a brother to Bridget; and Dr. Danny, a faithful friend; also the ‘Marquis’ who owned the works where Johnny worked. I should so much love to see the story. Can anyone tell me just where it appeared. I think the author of it was ‘Ruth Sawyer.'” A Poem I mecant to Keep. And now may I put one more of my own advertisements in the col- umn? Ten or fifteen years ago I read a two stanza poem, the name of which I think was ‘Shropshire Lad.” In the first stanza the boy of twenty- one tells how he has been advised to “glve pearls and gold and_rubies but not your heart away” and how he had laughed at the advice.

Written by George Randolph Chester and Lillian Chester, the story car- ries a warning to Americans of the dangers that will confront this coun- try when the war is over. Publicists generally have recog- nized the perils that will be faced by the United States, including in- dustriai depression, commercial war- fare and financial stringency. Europe, it is recognized, will be bankrupt fin- ancially and economically, and the United States, it is presumed, will be the only nation able to help in re- building the war-torn countries. Each nation will strive to enlist the aid of this countr; able that several may tingency that “The Message of the Mouse’ deals. « The story relates to a plot by five European ambassadors to divert fifty billions of dollars from American banks and industrial institutions to their own countries, with the result that Europe is assured of restoration, while this country writhes in the grip of panic, bank failures and industrial paralysis, attended by riats and bloodshed.
