MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adele Garrison’s New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Curious News of Katie Graham's Letter ¢ Mother ave, the new car, Dicky driving and Bess Dean sitting by his side, had appeared down the road, that with a little start I re ollected an important errand unful- fill The collection of mail for the family was still in my hands. Seeing my guest ‘with me, the others had waited my convenienc with a courtesy that spelled unusual self-resfraint. I hastened to the rear of the grounds where the cabir were, made my apologies, distributed the mail and retired to my own ver- anda with the epistles for our im- nediate household, Dicky’s profes- sional mail, the Ljier from Alice Holcombe—which I had read at the post office—and the biggest and thick est of all, the missive from Dic mother. Mother Graham invariably writes three letters, one to Dicky, one to me and one to Junior, Inclosing each in a small envelope, suitably ad- dressed, adds a collection of picture postals for Junior, then puts them all together in a big manuscript en- velope addressed to Dicky. She has some intricate system of reckoning by which she figures that she saves stamps by this method. I had no compunction in opening the big en- velope, even though addreserd to Dicky, for his letter within sealed. And after giving Junior's Jetter and the cards to him, with Marion eager to read them to him, I opened my own letter from my mother-in-law, knowing that all the household ne so important to the chatelaine of a home, would be forth- coming. I scanned its first pages hastily, for my mother-in-law, like many elder- ly women, never gets down to the real meat of her letter until she has gone through a series of prelimi epistolary exer Thus I wvead again of the wonderful time Dicky's sister, Elizabeth, and her children were having at the farm—they for- tunately were able to keep Mother Graham from fretting during our ab- sence because her heart did not permit a mountain sojourn—of the neighborliness of Mrs. Ticer, and the good showing of milk and egss made by the cow and hens. A Distant Memory Then after her usual invective con- cerning Katie's housekeeping fault something which I never take ser- iously, knowing that Mother Graham only means about one-tenth of what she says, I read with suddenly acute interest and real dismay, these sen- tence: “Actually, Margaret, I think girl is going out of her mind HAVE COLOR IN CHEEKS Be Better Looking—Take Olive Tablets If your skin is yellow—complexion pallid—tongue coated—appetite poor— you have a bad taste in your mouth— a lazy, no-good feeling—you should take Olive Tablets.

But that crisis in her life had proved to have no reality save in her own fears. There was no possibility of any breath from t(hat far distant cxperience blowing ad- versely upon her now. With an in- voluntary, puzzled shake of my head I went back to my mother-in- law’s letter. “But that isn't her screed ran on. ‘“You know always was a snooper; why haven’t cured her of it in all thesc vears is a mystery to me! But how she’s worse than ever.

She acts as if she were hunf- ing somecthing all the time. “Come Home.” “It was bad enough before father went away last week. I guess he wrote you that he had a tele- gram from that fool Allen Drake and started for Washington within an hour’s time, but since your father's departure, Katie has fairly haunted the vicinity of his room. She cleaned it from top to bottom without wait- ing for me to tell her to, and that in self is suspicious, for she usually n't hunting extra work. And when she got through, she just sat down and cried and howled like an animal, a regular hysterical fit. “Elizabeth and I though we'd have to send for Dr. Pettit. But after we threw some cold water in her face she sort of came to and said she was taken with a sudden pain, but I know better. She didn’t have any physical pain. She was just cra about not finding something she was llooking for in your father’s room. She’s always been honest, I know, but she’s the queerest acting thing now I ever saw and has been for the {past week or two. “My private opinion is that she got all wrought up over Richard Second’s disappearance and has been expecting somebody to kidnap her ever since. She’s been terribly nerv- out ever since you left. Why, one night about two weeks ago she came running into the kitchen from out- doors, white as death and half faint- ing, and all we could get out of her was that she’d seen “that man across the road.’ As he’s safe in a Drison cell, of course she was mistaken, and we finally proved it to her and she quieted dawn. But I'm almost afraid it has unhinged her brain—it isn’t any-too strong, anyway. “I do wish you could come home and straighten Katie out.

Still Henrlotta Hen didn’t open her mouth. She puzzled Mr. Crow. He even forgot his rage (for it always made him angry if anybody but him- self scratched up any corn). “What's the matter with you?” he asked. “What's the reason you don’t speak 2" ‘I'm too proud to talk with you,” said Henrletta Hen. *I don’t care to een speaking to you, sir.” Mr. Crow exploded. “Don't you think I'm as good as you are? ‘No!" said Henrletta Hen. o, I don't!” Mr. Crow was all for arguing her. He began to tell Henrietta many things about himself. how he had spent dozens of summers in Pleasant Valley, what a great traveller he was, how far he could fly in a day. There was no end to his boasting. Yet Henrietta Hen never looked the least bit interested. Indeed, she be- zan seratching for worms while he was talking.
