e e e o S ey T s NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 1022 MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adcle finrrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Reason Madge Racked Her Memory “What's the matter with the car?" I struggled valiantly to make my voice as matter-of-fact as Dicky's had sounded. 1 saw that he had dis- missed our recent tempestuous adven- ture as if it never had occurred, and I resolve to match his aparent non- chalance with equal poise. “If I knew, 1 wouldn't have bheen doubling as a daschund just now,"” he retorted, with a rueful glance at his natty suit, which showed the effects of his crawling beneath his car. “The blamed thing simply died at first out there. Luckily it gave me a few dying gasps to warn me, and I was able to tole it in here out of the road But I don't know for the life of me what the trouble is—carburetor trouble, I suppose.” “Is there anything I can do?" 1 asked innocently enough, but Dicky's sour glance showed that my query had irritated him. However, there was no trace of his annoyance in his answer. Perhaps the remembrance of the last hour or two was more vivid than I had thought. “Not a thing, here,” he said, then with a reluctant grin, he added, “but neither can I, so which would you rather do, go to the necarest tele- phone and summon a garage man, or stay here while T do it?"” “I think I'll stay here, if you don't mind,” I answered with the swift re- action against driving which T might have expected to follow my mad dash through the wood road. “All right, T won't be long, T don't think that road-house a couple of miles back is closed yet,” and in an- other minute he had climbed into my car and had driven away, leaving me sitting on the grassy bank by the side of his stalled car. 1 was glad, indeed, of the chance to pull myself together after the nervous strain and shock of the past hour or two. Resolutely, however, 1 put out of my mind the quarrel with Dicky. Tt had left nothing settled as to my aiding Lillian, but 1 guessed that Dicky would be as willing to compromise his position on that as 1 secretly was, and therefore we could find a common meeting ground upon the proposition. So I gave myself up to the lure of the autumn woods stretching around me on every side, and revelled in the rich sensuous coloring of leaves and vines and mosses. Waiting for Dicky. So exhausted mentally was I that for minutes of whose duration 1 had no measure I thought of nothing save the beauty aroynd me. For me the problems which Wwere troubling Lillian and my own more:personal ones were as though they never had been. Then, as the heavy autumn air and the scents of the woods brought strength and healing to my over- wrought nerves, my brain began to function again, and there came again to me—as there had come many times in the hours since my return— a searching inquiry as to the possible jdentity of the mysterious foreigner who had annoyed me on the train with his assertion of knowing my father and me. The bustle following my home- coming had been such that T had had no opportunity to go over the inci- dents of my journey and try fit them together as one would the plv_«-os of a picture puzzle And yet I felt that the complete pattern was there if I could but find a missigg piece or two which something told me my memory ought to supply. Vague Memories It was maddening, this sense of gomething which T ought to know, but which was just beyond my grasp. 1 carefully went over every minute of Cooked Food Shop 118 MAIN STREET to NEW LOCATION Our regular customers enjoy the generous saving that comes with the “Buying in Bulk” oppor- but numerous tunities as a matter of course, the good news is spreading.

I had noticed that part of Smith's evebrow had bheen plucked like that of a vain woman, and she had declared her belief that the man had done this to disguise a distin- guishing mark of a tufted eyebrow, How I anathematized my lack of observation as I realized that I could recall nothing definite about the mys- terious foreign's eyebrows, I had a vague impression that they were heavy and white, but with nothing unusual about them . Was it possible that— The sound of horses’ feet from the woodland road into which Dicky had drawn his car startled me from my reverie. There were voices, too, one the crisp, authoritative accents of an American man of affairs ,the other, the apparently deferential, almost servile voice of a laborer. But there was something in the accents of the second voice which brought me to| my feet breathless—waiting. SLEEPY-TIME TALES Cesdamen Regintamts THE TALE OF NIMBLE LOOKS ON. 1 Nimble and his friend Dodger the Deer picked themselves up off the ground where they had fallen after their collision in the air. They did not feel any too pleasant. One of Dodg- er's sharp tines had given Nimble a| good prick.. And points had stung Dodger like a hor- net's sting. If only one of them had been pricked the whole affair might have ended differently. For then perhaps only one of them would have lost his temper. As they drew apart they were growing more angry every in- stant. And when they wheeled and glared at each other old Mr. Crow, who was watching them from his perch in the pine tree, called out: “Don't stop! Make it lively, now!” Nimble gritted his teeth and stamped upon the ground. “I'll teach you not to prick me,” he muttered. “T'll make you wish you'd left those new antlers at home!"” cried Dodger the Deer. “Don’t stop!" old Mr. Crow urged them once more as he teetered on his perch. “Let the fun go on!" He squalled so loudly that his cousin Jasper Jay heard him half a mile away and came hurrying up to see what was going on. He arrived MR. CROW “That's a ood idea™Nimble exclaimed. “Lets see a mock battle up in the tree!™ just in time to see Nimble and Dodger | stagger back from another mad charge., “What's this? Jasper Jay inquired as dn\\n beside Mr. Crow. No!" Mr. Crow replied in muffled tones. “It's a real one—but they| don't know it yet." Next to quarreling himself, old Mr. Crow loved to look on whils others wrangled And though he had no taste himself for actual fighting, he liked to see his neighbors pummel battle?" settled A mock he another.

Dodger the Deer did not run. But he paused and stood exactly as Nim- ble was standing. So they eyed each other for a while. And neither of them said a 'word. Come! Come!” cried olé Mr. Crow. “This will never do. Give us |niore actton!' And then Dodger the Deer looked up at Mr. Crow and Jasper Jay and spoke. “If you want more action why don’t you two furnish it?" he asked. “That's a good idea!” Nimble ex- claimed. “I,M see a mock battle up in the tre But Mr. Crow replied hoarsely that had to meet a friend down the valley. “I must be flapping along,” he said. And off he went, Jasper Jay grinned and winked at Nimble and Dodger behind Mr. Crow's back. And then with a loud squall—which might have meant al- he most anything-—he too flew away. “That was the liveliest mock battle we ever had,” Nimble remarked to his friend Dodger. Dodger agreed with what he said. Nimble's mother gasped when she saw her son a little later. “You're a terrible sight!" she told him severely. *“What have you been doing?" “I've been having fun with Dodger the Deer,” Nimble explained. *“But to tell the truth, it wasn't as much tun as I had expected.” (Copyright 1922 by The Metropolitan Newspaper Service). CHEAPER CUTS Sister Mary Tells Ways to Economize on Meat F the average housekeeper will learn to use the cheaper cuts of meat in appetiz- ing and attractive ways she will do much toward re- ducing the cost of high living. The shoulder of lamb makes a perfectly good roast and is never as expensive as the leg of lamb. The breast, shank and neck can be made into very palatable and nourishing dishes that will take the place of the expensive chops on ordinary occasions.

Do aprons have fashions? Certain- ly they do! And never have they been prettier than right now. It's almost a temptation to discharge the cook, just to see gome of the charm- ing apron effects now in vogue.

Gay cretonnes are specially popu. lar just now, being used to trim aprona of plain colof chambray, or to form the entire apron with plain color serving as the decoration. Quaint calico patterns have also become cmart, the more old-fash- ioned the better. These are fre. quently trimmed with rick-rack, an- other revival from an older day, which {s as sturdy as it is good looking.
