HOLDING A HUSBAND Adele Garrison’s New Phase of Revelations of a W/ife» The Verdict Dr. Pettit Gave. . “How long does it take that pusher to get from Sag Harbor Southampton 2" Dicky looked at his watch as he . asked the question, and abandoned the drapery he had been considering for his studio. With a hasty glance at my own watch I dropped the sheer white ruffled dimity 1 was fingering, as if it had been something burning hot. “He's probably there by this time,” ¥ said. “We must fiy !” I turned to the waiting clerk: “Will you please lay 4side seventy yards of this? Here is a deposit, and I will return shortly for the bundle™ “Oh, yes, Miss ! Thank you, Miss.” The very FEnglish farewell of the clerk followed me from the shop, one of the ultra smart-ones in which the fashionable: summer resort abounds, and I saw Dicky grinning at it as we hurried toward the car. * “Yes,. your ladyship. No, ladyship. Isn't there somthing We can offer your ladyship?” he maockeéd when we were once more héaded for the hospital. “They cer- tainly do the subservient courtesy act up brown here. How much per cent do you suppose they tack on to the cost of each article for the ‘thank you Miss’ stuff?” “Enough, I fancy,” I returned, “although that white ruffled curtain material was ot exhorbitant in price, but quite rasonable indeed. Let me see five yards to each window, and in.the front pedroom there are three, two each in those—" “For the love of Mike, also Pete !" Dicky exploded. “Can the mental arithmetic when I'm around! You ordered seventy vards, you must have had some idea of how much you wanted.” “I have,” I returned with dignity. “I was simply checking up my esti- mate.” “Well, you must be doing it for the fun of the thing!” he retorted. “For I never knew you to’ make a mistake in your arithmetic before. So cut it out. Do you suppose that sawbones has really arrived? I hope 1 didn’t hurt that child !” “You May Come in Now. The exclamation came explosively from his lips, and I glimpsed the very real terror that he had been mask- ing beneath his careless exterior. With the memory of Dr. Pettit's chilling declaration that he could not tell the extent of the injury until he had reached the hospital. I did not dare give any assurance to Dicky, Eknowing that he would in all prob- ability resent my attempting to give him any. Yet he would be equally resentful of silence, so I answered non-committally: “I can’t believe that you hurt her, Dicky. You raised -her very ten- derly.” #It makes a lot: of difference what yau believe *’ he snarled. It was ex- actly the answer I expected, for 1 Knew that his nerves were tensed, pill to your more SCEEPY~-TI ) and, in a wady, I was glad of it, for it gave me an excuse for not speak- ing again until we reached the hospital. Outside Marion’s door we came upon Robert Savarin pacing up and down, his hands gripped tightly to- gether behind him. But as soon as he saw Dicky’s face he came forward and put his hand on the younger man’s shoulder. “Don’t distress yourself so, old chap,” he said kindly. “I do not think your action made the slightest difference with Marions’ injurigs. She was qufte herself again after you left. The physician is with her now, mak- ing a thorough examination of her back, so we may know the truth at any minute now.” “Thank you, Savarin.” Dicky’'s hand went out gratefully to that of the elder man, and then the’ door opened and Miss Jones stepped into the hall “You may come in now,” she said briskly, and we all filed into the room where Dr. Pettit was standing by Marion’s bed with his stiffest pro- fessional manner upon him. What Dicky Asked. The child had tiny drops of pers- piratien upon her forehead, and!her face was pallid, proofs of the pain she had suffered. My eyes went swiftly to Lillian's face, for I knew I should find the truth there. She was again kneeling by Marion’s side, with the child’s hands in hers, but her eyes, while full of sympathy for her child’s pain, had lost their look of terror. “It's all right,” she said, quickly, quietly; and I knew that she could not bear to let us wait Dr. Peftit's slower assurance. “Please tell them, doctor, what you have told me.” “There is no permanent injury, I am sure,” Dr. Pettit said. “There are several bad bruises upon the muscles of her back, one especially painful, which will keep her quiet for a few days, possibly longer. She could be moved to the place where you are boarding, if her mother in- sists upon it, but I think it better for her to stay here for a week.” This was evidently news to Lillian, for she lifted her head quickly and looked at the physician fixedly. “May I stay with her?” she asked. “I expect you to,” he answered. “She needs no professional care, ex- cept when she has to be moved, and then a nurse will be.always within call.” But you will not need a spe- cial nurse, and T am sure you will be very comfortable here together.” “Dr. Pettit !” Dicky struck in abruptly. “Did I increase her in- jury when I inadvertently raised her this morning?” “It didn’t do her any good.” he re- torted, and I saw tpat his dislike for Dicky had triumphed for the in- stant over his professional instincts. The next moment, however, he was the dignified physician again. However, I cannot say conscien- tiously, that you did her any harm, either,” he finished. Then with a stiff bow which included us all he bade us farewell and left the room. ME TALES CTrademark Registarass THE TALE OF GRUNTY Pl THE LUCKIEST OF ALL. Grunty ‘Piz found that being the smallest of the family wasn't all fun. Not only could his brothers and sisters crowd him at the feeding trough, even when they were playing in the pen they often knocked him eru.ntg Pig found that being th« smallest of the familu wasa't all fi . down and walked right over him. And if he ‘objected as he usually did— they were sufe to, laugh and call him “Runt.” Try as she would, Mrs. Pig couldn’t rid her children- of -these boorish ways. But she shouldn’t .be blamed for that. It must be remembered that she had. seven youngsters, all of the saime age. At least, Mrs. Pig did what she could to make Grunty's lot easier.

In one way you are the luckiest of all my chil- dren.” Grunty Pig didn't stop weeping. He saw no reason—yet—to feel more cheerful. “Did you know—" his mother asked him—"did you know that in one respect you are the handsomest one of the whole litter? You have the curliest tail of them all!” Grunty Pig gazed, open-mouthed, company at his mother. He, stopped snivelling. Up to that time he had scarcely given his tail a thought.. So long as it fol- lowed him wherever he went he had been satisfled with it. From that moment Grunty began to think a.great deal about his tail. He was always turning his head to look at it, to make sure it hadn’t lost any of its kink. Now and then he was even late for a meal, because he was feasting his eyes on his tail when Farmer Green came to the pen with food for Mrs. Pig's family. It must be confessed that Grunty sometimes boasted before his broth- ers and sisters about his beautiful cur’v tail. And just before meal time his orother Blackie was known, upon occasion, to mention the subject of tails. He did that in the hope that Grunty would be late at the feeding trough. Sad to say, Grunty Pig was fast becoming vain. He even talked about tails with the neighbors, taking pains to explain that his own was the handsomest one of the farm. Old Dog Spot sniffed when Grunty boasted about his tail one day. “Why, your tail is of no use whatsoever,” Spot told him. “You can’t use it to switch a fly off your back. The Muley Cow can do that. And so can the old horse, Ebenezer.” “Ah! look at!” Grunty exclaimed. “You can’t puff it up to show you're angry, as Miss Kitty Cat does,” said Spot. “Ah! but my tail has a beautiful curl!” said Grunty Pig. “You can’t wag it, to let folks know you're friendly, as I can,” said Spot. “Ah! But my tail is so handsome!” Grunty Pig exclaimed. Tomorrow—How Old Dog Spot Helped Grunty Through the Fence. (Copyright 1921 by The Metropalitan Newspaper Service). A Tent for sale and to rent.

Isn't it true that in or- der to keep up with the march of progress the endurance of woman is often strained to its utmost, and the tax upon her physical system is in many cases grsater than she can stand. Backaches develop, and ner- vous irritability, backache, dragging down sensatfons, and other painful ailments peculiar, to women. The re- liable ~remedy when a woman gets into such a condition is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, as for nearly half a century it has proved the mnatural restorative for these troubles.

New York, July 27.—It’s a wise bird- let that knows its own parent. Like- wise it's a wise old bird that knows its own child these days. Never in the history of plumage have so many odd tricks been played on birds with millinery tendencies. Tancy the proud peacock seeing His gorgeous tail feathers all piucked ana beshorn of their pristine colors—their eyes literally plucked out and dyed black, to make a fan-shaped ornament for milady’s hat! Juno would weep to see her favorite bita so uespoiled. Yet the result is one of “‘chic-est’’ effects in fall millinery. The black velvet hat from Josepn is of medium size, with a sharply up- turned flare at the front-side. A fan- shaped spray of peacock feathers brushes away from the face., The black hatter’s plush' trban from Joséph bears another odd feather orna- ment—the edges of the ostrich tip being capriciously caught in a jet border. Many privileges are taken with the poor ostrich who might well hide his head for shame if’ the results were not so striking and stylish. Think of the glycerined ostrich tip— buf we have it with us and you don't buy it at the drug counter, either! .. The glycerined feather is a lona, lanky stringy feather but awfully smart. Then there is the metalic ostrich tip_which is of a grayish color. the very and winter SPECIAL COMMITTEE MEETS The first meeting ot the committee appointed by the building commission to recommend revision of the building code held its first meeting last evening Those on the committee are Chairman ‘Walter P.
