HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison’s New Phase of _ Revelations of a Wife What Harm Did Dicky Do? “Eat you a race!” Dicky echoed aggrievedly “I'm surprised at you, Marion, after all the trouble I've taken to train you in United States as she isn’t spoke, to hear talk like that from you. But then, I can’t ex- pect to keep you under my eye, or rather, ear, all the time. And I sup- pose now you've got your Uncle Robk ert, your Uncle Dicky cdn go jump in the lake for all you'll care.” His tone was the essence of railler: bu I wondered if underneath thsre was not a soupcon of seriousness. Hegalways has been intensely fond of Mation, and the child has returned his devotion whole-heartedly. I sus- pected that her undouted preference for Robert Savarin galied him. “T'll never go back on you, Dicky,” Marion said loyally. her eyes turned adoringly to Savarin, *my Uncle Robert come first next to my mother, haven’s any father, and he’s going to be my father some day, aren’t you, Uncle Robert?” It was a little speech which I have heard her utter often, and it always elicits the same response, which came promptly from the artist's lips. “Of course, Sweetheart! Just soon as mother says so.” I saw Lillian glance quickly at Miss Jones, and knew that this revelation of her intimate affairs before a stranger was most distasteful to her. The next instant Miss Jones effaced herself with graceful skill, “Do you mind if T go now and zet my own breakfast?” she said glanc- ing at her wrist watch, and addressing Lillian directly.. “I won’t be long, and Marion won't need anything you can't give her for the next fifteen minutes or 80." “Of course. Stay as long as you like or think best.” Lillian said graciously, and the nurse slipped un- obtrusively from the room. “I call that distinctly sporting,” Dicky remarked in off-hand fashion to the wall nearest him. Then he turned a blank, innocent gaze upon Lillian, who had flushed like a. school girl at_his bit of raillery.

With. difficulty I kept myself from frankly staring at my friend. 1L had never known any of Dicky's nonsense to disturb her composure in the least. But where Robert Savarin is concerned she ceases to become the perfectly poised woman of the world, appears to revert back to the period when she was the adoring neophyte and he the master, unconscious of her feeling, who, out of innate kind- ness, first get her feet in the path she was so tread so successfully. 1 saw Robert Savarin krit his eye- brows ever. so slightly, knew that Dicky’s quip had annoyed him, and I resolved to imitate Miss Jones's tact- ful exit. “What time will Dr Pettit be here?” I asked Lillian, casually. “He said_about 10 o’clock,” she re- turned, flashing me a grateful, com- prehending look. “Then there won't be any use of our going home until he comes.” I said, adding, with a compelling eye upon Dicky, “but I will just have time to get some curtain stuff at the Southampton shops which I must have. My curtains from Marvin will not fit those windows, and it would be a shame to cut them down.” “Oh, you mustn’t cut those lovely draperies !” Lillian exclaimed. “T think you are very wise. They are not suited for a farmhouse, anyway.” “It Wasn’t Your Fault—" “Why don’t you cut over the dows to fit 'em?” Dicky asked, edg- ing toward the door, and I knew that he was as eager to get away as I was. “Unecle Dicky !” Marion’s voice sounded imperiously. Come here and kiss me before you go. You haven't kissed me yet.” “I didn't know I dared to,” Dicky retorted, striding toward the bed. Robert Savarin moved aside as he did so, and Dicky, slipping his arms around Marion's slight figure, started to raise her to.a sitting posture be- fore Lillian and I-—who had heard Dr. Pettit's injunction against such a pro- cedure—could stop him. A quick moan of pain from Marion started us all. Dicky put her quick- ly baek upon her pillows, and her mother flew to her side. “4#What is it, darling?” she asked with apparent composure, but I saw that her lips were drained of color, and I knew that the same fear which had clutched my heart was obsessing her. Had the child escaped death, only to face disablement, perhaps permanently? B o Nothing much, mother.” Marion smiled bravely, but with an evident effort. “It’s:only a place in my back that hurt when Uncle Dicky raised iR “Somebody ought to take me out and shoot me,” Dicky declared re- morsefully, bending over the child. “It wasn't your fault, Uncle Dicky,” Marion declared lovally. *“I wanted to sit up so bad I forgot all about what Dr. Pettit said, and raised myself.” “Did Pettit say she mustn’t sit up?” Dicky queried contritely, and at Lil- lian's sorrowful affirmative nod he turned to me abruptly. “Let’s get out of here,” he said with a roughness born of his agonized penitence. ¥I'll get Pettit here on the run and see what harm has been done.” win- st Girls!!| Clear Your Skin With Cuticura ot e St S s S vy e, POLI'S CAPITOL HARTFORD Three Days Only, Beginning Monday * Fortune Callo Presents STEPANOFF and His RUSSIAN BALLET Theodor Stepanoff, late of the Anna Pavlowa and Her Ballet Russe Company, the Diaghieleff Ballet Russe and the Im- perial Ballet of Russia - Assisted by M.

Jolly Robin and his wife told their friends that Grunty Pig was going to teach them a lesson. The birds had matter. Not 1. “Youll find out latex” said Grunty Pig. : till old Mr. Crow visited the orchard one day did the Robin family cease chuckling over what they called “the joke of the season.” “Don’t laugh too soon!” Mr. Crow croaked. “This Grunty Pig means mischief. He isn’t going to teach you the sort of lesson you've been snick- ering about. What he intends to do is to harm you in some way.” Now, nobody in Pleasant Valley could look gloomier than old Mr. Crow. And when he hinted darkly, in his hoarse way, that there was trouble ahead for the Robin family, he threw Jolly Robin's wife into a flutter. “Oh, what does Grunty Pig mean to do to us?" Mrs. Robin quavered. “I'd rather not tell you,” said old; Mr. Crow. “I don’'t want you to worry.” . Mr. Crow left them then. Of course he couldn’t have chosen a better way. to upset Mrs. Robin. Even Jolly himself had to admit after a while that he could think of nothing that seemed to cheer his wife in the least. “I'll speak to Mr. Crow again,” he, told his wife. “I'll ask him just what he meant.” i Alas! Mr. Crow wouldn't tell him, The truth was that Mr. Crow had al- ready told all he knew. “I'll ask Grunty Pig himself what he means to do to us,” Jolly then declared to his wife. “I've noticed that he digs every day at the foot CTeademark Regine, THE TALE -OF GRUNTY PI 7 BY ARTHUR_SCOTT BAILEY, P NV a wink at Mrs. going to fly?” “No!"

If I work every day around the foot of the tree I'll have it uprooted at last. And when it topples over and falls on the ground I'll have no trouble getting into the top of it.” When they heard that, Jolly Robin and his wife stopped laughing.
