NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, MO‘NDAY,‘ OCTOBER 31, MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adele Garrison’s New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE How Dicky “Took” Madge's® Diplomatic Joke. An absurd little: pain clutched me for a brief second at Marion's. an- nouncement that she meant to teach Junior to read, jand ‘Lillan’s laugh- ing reference to my climbing on my shelf. It was not possible, I told myself shamefacedly, that I could be jeal- ous of the little girl's work with my baby boy. And yet I was clear- visioned enough to see that, mother- like, I was consciously or subcon- sciously resentful of any influence over Junior which would infringe on mine in any way. But I was just enough to smother it from Marion’s eyes, although I knew that to Lil- lian’s amused and experienced vision my feeling was transparent. “T'll sit back any day arion,” I said, drawing the uulen;}\to me. “And 1 think what you have accom- plished with Junior is wonderful. Just go ahead, dear, and teach him anything you like.” “Don’t you think, Marion” sug- gested her mother quietly, “it would be great fun if youand Auntie Madgze and Junior played normal school and practice class? Auntie Madge could fix up a lesson and show you how to teach it. Then you could teach Junior while Auntie Madge looked on. You'd be sure of doing it the way the real teachers do, and that would be the best kind of practice for you.” “Oh-h !—Mother ! You do think of the most scrumptious things!” Marion undid -herself from n¥ em- brace and rushed into her mother's arms rapturously: ‘“There never was stich a mother as you!” ,She hugged and kissed her mother ecstatically, while I, sharing her en- thusiasm, felt in addition a glowing, heart-warming ~ ‘gratitude to the friend who had solved so skilfully and delicately a problem that‘might have become a bit troublesome. Her plan arranged everything beautifully, and it was with eyes shining with gratitude that I looked a'. her across Marion’s ‘head. “I Must fly." “You are right, Marion.” THIS YOUNG MOTHER Tells Childless Women What Lydia E.Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Did for Hexj Millston, Wis.—*“ I want to give you of praise for your wundq-t medaycms.

Then I hurried to my own bungalow and found that I had the place to myself. It took but a few minutes fo carry out my. mischievous plan of dress. Except for shoes and outer coat and skirt I dressed as I had planned at first, with woolen hose, knickers and sport blouse. But my sneakers and the skirt to my Knickerbocker suit I put into a small Wnobtrusive bundle and lai& it on a chair with the coat to my own suit. In the Balance. Then I shod my feet with a pair of high-heeled oxfords, suitable only for ecity streets, put on Mrs. Cos- grove’s skirt, and by dint of pinning fitted it over great folds of the cloth and - then buttoned the prim coat snugly about me. I topped the whole with a rather modish little motor hat, and giggled appreciatively at the ludicrous reflection I saw in the mirror. Then, 'lighting a lam lafter drawing the window shades, sat ‘down by the table with a maga- zine, looked up-with my usual air of casual interest when Dicky upon his return from the garage, opened th# door. s “What'the devil?” he hegan. I rose from my chair before he got the exclamation out and lolded my hands meekly. “I trust this fishing costume meet< with your, lordship’s approval.” T said, with an air ‘whick Griselda her self might have envied. For ‘a second—a second which T had dreaded—I do not think Dickv knew whether he was*going to laugh or be angry. Then he grinned reluc- tantly, and circled around me, ex- amining the costume from every angle. “Score for you,” he acknowledged at length, “Wear four pair of knee pants sans skirts if you want to. “Oh, they’d be so bungling, Dicky. I murmured demurely, and was her a seized and soundly shaken, and then as soundly kissed for my retort. “But where did you get this out- fit?” he demanded a minute lafer with an interest that T saw'was pro- fessional. It's just the thing I want for some stuff I've got to get out. Alnd. yes—you're just the type I need for that drawing! No one else could ook half so sweet in those old things Want to be an artist's model?” “You know I'd love it” I replied all my rancor gonme. ‘“And Dicky, ns I slipped out of the old-fashioned costume “I—I want to wear the skirt, all the time.” “And T knew that you did,” Dickv ~onfessed. “I guess we each had to ~et that much cussedness out of our systems, and selected the other for a target. But it's lots nicer this way Aon’t you think £0?” And he pune tured his question with a kiss. Cure Your Own Hams BY SISTER MARY ANY persons like to cure a ham and shoulder and several pieces themselves. butchers their own rangements smoking and are to look smoking for their tomers. It's really very little trouble to cure the meat and home-cured ham is like a vegetable from ‘our own garden.” To Sugar Cure Ham or Bacon Five pounds salt, 5 ounces pepper, 1 ounce salt petre, 1 pint molassgs. This rule will cure 10 pounds of pork. Rub about 1 tablespoon table salt around the bone of the hams and Ishoulders. Then rub well with molasses. Mix salt, pepper and salt petre thoroughly and rub on the meat. Use about one-third the first time and let stand three days. Rub again at the end of the next three days, making three rubbings in all, Let stand in a cool, dry place for from four to six weeks. Then have smoked, While this does away with fussing with a brine, it's sort of un- pleasant rubbing the meat with molasses. This is the simplest way to sugar cure pork. To Cure Pork With Brine First rub each ham with 1 spoonful powdered salt petre. around the bone with 1 teaspoon pepper. Mix 1% pounds brown sugar with 2 cups salt and rub meat with this. This quantity is enough for fifty pounds of meat. Put a layer of salt in the bottom of a large tub. Put in meat skin down. Sprinkle with salt and put in more meat. Let stand in this salt for eight days. Then take out and wipe off all the salt and wash the tub. Take 6§ ounces salt petre, 8 cups molasses, 8 cups salt, 2 gallons water. Boil and skim. ‘When cool pour over meat in the tub. The brine should cover the meat.

Among the many, many answers submitted were many good ones and it was finally necessary to choose the winner by the process of elimin- ation. Of the score or more that were picked as unusually good, each was severely criticized and laid aside for every fault that could be found with it. In the end there were two left to choose from and the award lwas given to Miss Beach because, in the minds of the judges, her answer conversed the situation thoroughly, briefly and sensibly. She enuymerated the various chief reasons for girls leaving home, given by some as the sole reason, then summed it all up in the undeniable word that it was yecause of ‘‘dissatisfaction.” The winning essay, for which $10 gold piece is to be given, read: “The reasons why girls leave home —whether expressed as love of man >r money, desire for a splendid ca- reer, or craving for a sympathetic inderstanding not received from their family—all dissolve into one ] main.factor: ‘Dissatisfaction with life as they are living it A good many of the answers given 1id not stick to the point in question, although doubtless the writers thought that they did. A large number, gave as reasons, ideas that would more aptly come under a head of “what to do to keep girls .from leaving home.” Some mistook an interpre- tation of a girl's feelings and awaken- ing after she has already left home for the reason for their leaving. A large number blamed the lure of the big cities entirely, forgetting that all girls who leave home do not neces- sarily go to the big cities, Some remain in cities or towns as small or smaller than the ones they left. A good many also insisted that the girl must necessarily leave home and g0 with some man of her choice, forgetting that countless more girls leave home, not because they want tor go away with some man, but be- cause, as the winner, declared, they are dissatisfied withi fife as they are living it and want a change, but not necessarily tying up with some other individual. They also seemed to lose sight of the fact that a majority of the girls who leave homle do so after mature deliberation and not on the spur of the moment or in yielding to some momentary temptation. An- other, who gave a good answer, spoiled it by saying that girls, dis- contented in their present environ- ment, leave home for the “fun” qf adventure. Many do leave for ‘‘fun” but many, many more leave for more serious reasons than simply “fun.” not hard work and well worth while. This is one of the things our mothers did in'the days before we. heard so much about the high cost of living. What is known as leaf lard may be purchased in any butcher shop and, tried out at home.

When Miss Kitty Cat awoke from her inap, she got up and stretched herself. In her opinion, a nap was no nap at all if ona didn’t stretch after taking it. ‘“There’s nothing like 1 good stretch to make a person imber,” she often remarked. Of course, in order to climb trees, or spring successfully at a rat or a nouse, Miss Kitty had to keep her muscles supple. And since it hap- Moinck!

After she had smoothed her fur to suit her, Miss Kitty went to the door and mewed pitiently until Farmer Green's wife opened it # Then Miss Kitty Cat slipped out of the kitchen and found herself in the woodshed. A highly interesting place, it seemed to her, with any number of erannigs to offer lurking-places for mice. She decided at once that the woodshed would be a fine spot in which to hunt in stormy weather. Feeling much pleased with her new home, Miss Kitty hopped down upon he: great flat stone that served as a step from the woodshed to the ground. She couldn’t help thinking, as she sat there, what a pleasant yard Farmer Green had. She noticed ‘hat there were trees ‘enough about he farmhouse to furnish homes for And if there wag one thing that Miss Kitty Cat liked, it was to visit birds right ‘where they lived. Seeing a faint stir in the grass not far away, she began to creep to- wards it. Miss Kitty had found that it paid to look into such things. Often she had surprised a meadow mouse in just that way. % This time, however, it was Miss Kitty Cat herself that was surprised. She was so intent on her own impor- tant business that she never took her eyes off that spot where the grass had moved. And that was why she didn’t see old dog Spot when he stuck his nose around a corner of the farmhouse. Now, Spot’s ways were quite dif- ferent from Miss Kitty’s. Whenever he set out on a hunt, he never could keep still. So the moment he caught sight ‘'of Miss Kitty Cat he gave a joyful bark. At the same time he bounded towards her. Of course Spot’s yelps warned her to run. The moment she heard his first bark, she forgot all about her own hunt, being herself the hunted. She scurried off across the farmyard, with Spot tearing after her. If she had had time enough Miss Kitty would have climbed a tree. But Spot was altogether too near her for that. And being a stranger about he farmyard, she hadn't learned all the fine hiding places. Since Spot was between her and the house, she made for the barn and sprang through the open dcor. Inside Spot quickly ~ornered her. With her back arched and her tail Almost as big as Tommy Fox’s brush, Miss Kitty Cat turned and faced her pursuer.

VAUDEVILLE—LYCEUM From autHentic figures today in the city of New York eleven thousand high class salaried acts are unem- ployed, for no other reason than the high railroad fares, so Walter J.

Harry Carey in the Fox is the photoplay Normaley prices is the Tyceum “motto.” “MAN-WOMAN-COURAGE.” BIG HIT AT PALACE Allen Holubar’s great dramatic photoplay “Man-Woman-Marriage* opened a four day engagement at the Palace last evening to a capacity house who were loud in their praisc for this wonderful photoplay. Dorothy Phillips is the star and she is suppo:t- ed by a cast that numbers in the thousands. One of the valuable assels to the picture is the prologue as in- troduced by the Palace management with Miss Cora Stark as soloist. She dispiays a wonderful voice which greatly enhances the value of this superb production. In story “Man- Woman-Marriage'” is the greatest of present day photoplays, its cast is ver rich with excellent players, especi the wonderful acting of Miss Philips and J. Kirkwood stands out in promi- nence. Then there are also, thousands of other players who help make up the big spectacular scenes. One of these scenes is the Battle of the Amazons, wherein the women ride forth to battle the men of the kingdom. Taken all in all “Man-Woman-Marriage” is the biggest of the present day photoplays and ranks as high as if not higher than the newest big one, “Sowing the Wind" which the Palace wiH present in the very near future. The Palace management is very proud to be able to show such a picture as “Man-Wom, an-Marriage” to its patrons ang hi2h- ly recommends it as pne that every one should see.

The question of whether an evening gown on some girls is a sign of degredation is answered. Another novel point to this picture is that it is without the conventional love story, though its interest is no less com- pelling. The story deals with every home in general. but for the sake of specificness, two in particular are closen. Onme is the home of a rich merchant who indulges his daughter's «very whim. The other is the home of the rich man's emplove, who re- presses in his raughter every youth- ful instinct. The result is that bpth girls leave home to fight the battle of life alone. Their experiences tell the story.
