MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adele Garrison’s New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The ‘“Hunch” That Lilllan Had. Lillian hesitated oddly, as, after our tea, I gave her the opportunity to tell me the thing she had wished me to know. “It's just this” she sald at last, patiently half ashamed of what she was going to ask me. “Did you by any chance bring your badge with you?” I knew instantly what she meant, of course. It was the only badge I ever had worn,, the little plece of metal which had given me rank dur- ing the world war as Lillian’s as- sistant in the important secret work she was doing for the government. Lillian still held an important place in the service, but with an arrange- ment by which she was gnly called on for aid when -some piece of work which called for her especial talents was on foot. So far as work went I had no place at all, but Lilllan, by | virtue of my own'influence, had man- aged things so that I was still on the reserve list and had kept my ®adge. But I had done no work since the war ended. “No, I dfdn’t,” I replied. “It is in my safety deposit box at the ban.” “Good place for it Lilllan com-| mented, and I could not tell from | LINONINE | for That Cold It is the best possible medicine you can use—pure mé,very ef- fective.

CORNS Lift Right Off without Pain her tone whether she approved or dieapproved my caution. “But it doesn’t matter,” she added. “I have my badge with me, and as long as you're still on the rolls in good stand- ng, I can lend it you. I want you to wear it when you go on that fool fishing trip tonight.” I suppose my face looked startled-fawn expression,” she said. “I don't kKnow, myself, whether I'm getting feeble-minded, or unusually sagacious. But I've got one of my hunches, or at least a fraction of one, that you'd be better off if you had that badge with you in case of an emergency. Ahd yet I haven't anything to go on—except—" She paused, as if ‘weigh'ag and sifting the ingredients of her hunch while I mentally sat up and took no- tice. Many years of close association with Lillian Underwood have taught me to regard her hunches with awed. respect, to consider them al- most clairvoyant. “I won’t be betraying any con- fidence,” she said, “if I tell you that the powers that be are getting all het up—and between you and me their temperature ouzht to have risen long ago—over certain slimy under- currents in the seas which the ship of state is sailing, undercurrents which have been unknown and un- charted all too long. They are be- ginning to chart them, and I should imagine—though I don’t happen to know—that they wouldn’'t encourage night .visits to a big drinking-watér supply like the dam Of course, the natives like Tom: Cosgrove, could fish there at night a hundred years with- out any damage, and the patrols know it, and no doubt close their eyes ninety-nine times out of a hun- dre®. But every so often there's a spasm,_of virtuous investigation in all systems, and when it starts, every one's caught in the same net. I'm positive that fishing at night is for- bidden there—did you see and hear Tom when he was asked that ques- tion?” the Lillian’s Request I nodded with a vivid remenibrance of the big man’s humorous embar- rassed evasion of the query. “So on the wholé I think it's as well you should have my badge,” she concluded. “You may have to g0 some to explain the fishing end of it, but claim Tom as your uncle or something like that -and say ye™ wanted to see the dam by night—in other words, take all the blame your- self. But,” she shrugged her shoul- ders with a deprecatory motion “probably I'm just the 59th variety of idiot, and ,you'll have the 1ost peaceful kind of evening. Let's talk of something else. How’s®everything at home?" It was an idle question. but it set e to thinking of something I had put out of my mind, somathing which I had not tqld Lillian because we so ‘far had kept everything dis- agreeable from her knowledge. But a sudden impulse made me tell her of Katie's queer behavior, and of Mother Graham’s demand that I come home and straighten her out. “I would have gone for a day or two, af least,” T finished, “but Dicky would not hear of it. He—" I stopped, flushing with a sudden re- membrance of the reason. why Dicky objected to my going. A “I don't blame him,” Lillian said ignoring the flush. “If T were in his nlace I wouldn't be left unguarded ‘o the tender mercies of that would- he man-éater that's prowling thréugh 'this compound.” She glanced at my face, softly. “Don’t look so conscience-stricken, “hild,” she said. “You haven’t given anything away. A child could see the .dead set Bess Dean is making ‘or the Dicky-bird, and the way he is duttering away from her. But this Katie matter is something else again.

He says: “‘Girls leave home because their parents try to be too good to them. They let them go left and right and when they get older they do not realize the meaning of father and mother and think they will find even better homes in the wide, wide world". This contest ends Saturday. It is open to all a $10 gold piece is to be given the person who gives the best answer in not more than 50 words. Taking an opposite view to Mr. Berek, Anna M. Corzon of 407 Myrtle the blame on the parents. “If the parents show their love for them and if they really love them thay will have no idea of leaving home. It's because they don’t really know what mother-love is that they leave home.” Inexperience, how Rose Bell of 127 Jubilee streets sums it up. She say “It takes an inexperienced one to picture life as a sweet dream and believe that in her life she is to meet only honest people who will be ready to help her and zive her zood advice.

GETTING ACQUAINTED. Not liking her neighbor on her right, at the fair, Henrietta Hen sidled up to the wire netting on the opposite side of her pen. Peering through it, she examined the person whom she saw, just beyond in a pen of her own. 3 A very sleek hen was this, who gave Henrietta a slight nod. “We may as well eak,” she said, “‘since we're to live n¥xt to each oth- er for a week.” “A week!” Henrietta groaned. “Shall T have to-stay cooped up here as long as that?” “Yes!"” said Neighbor Number 2. "“‘And I don't blame you for feeling as you seem to. A week is a long time for everybody shere—except me."” Henrletta Hen didn't understand what she meant. “I'm going to win the first prize— ‘with my chicks,” Neighbor Number 2 announced. ‘“‘Of course that’s worth waiting here a week.” “Pardon me!” Henrietta exclaimed. “I don't see how you can win the first prize.” 3 “Why not?” demanded the other. And she pressed against the wire net- ting of her pen and stuck her head through it as far as she could, as if she would have pecked Henrietta had she been able to. ‘““Because—"" Henrietta explained— “because the lady on the other side of me is going to win it.” “Who said so?" “She did,” Henrietta answered. “Ha! ha!” cackled Neighbor Num- ber 2. “That's a good joke. She hasn’t any more chance of .winning *han—than you have!” “Now, Henrietta Hen couldn’t help being puzzled. But whoever might win the first prize, she was sure- it couldn’t be she.’ Hadn't her neigh- bors on either side of. her the same as told her that she couldn’t win? Henrietta would have felt quite glum, except that she couldn’t very well mope in the mijdst of the terrific racket all about her. Soon her neigh- ‘bors—both Number 1 and Number 2 —were having loud disputes with the '"hens in the pens on the further side of them. It seemed:as if every hen at the fair had left her manners at home—if she ever had any. “Goodness!” Henrietta Hen mur- mured to herself. “If there's a prize, 3 "We may as well speak” she saidisince waYe to live next to each other for aweek when people began to stop and stare at her. he dreaded to hear what they would say. After the way her next-door neighbors had talked to her she didn’t believe anybody would have a word of praise for her. She soon heard all sorts of re- marks about herself. Some said she was too little and some said she was too big; others exclaimed that her legs were too short, while still oth- {ers declared that they were too long! As these—and many similiar—com- ments fell upon’ Henrietta's ears she promptly decided that there wasn't anything about her that was as it should be. Having always called herself (be- fore she left home) a ‘“spreckled beauty,” she began to feel very low in her mind. And there was only one thing that kept her from being downright sad. All the sightseers agreed that she had some pretty chicks. Heririetta couldn't help wishing that they had a different mother—one that was worthy of them.
