A Adele Garrison MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS 's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Why Madge Felt the Impulse to Shield Allen Drake, Theé meaning of the trite old phrase, “walking on air’ was revealed to me as 1 went out of my father's room after I had written down the lists of names for which I had asked. I had no sensation of solid floor beneath my feet, and I reached my own room in a rapturous, tremulous excitement which only those can realize who have seen afar off the long- cherished but emin bsurd dream coming true I knew Al ficlently to speaking lig ns of a ke's moods suf- t he was all his apparent nonchalance—when he had asked me to bring back to him the code which I had long ago W d out for my own amu and in which I had just transcribed the names he had dictated to me Could 1t be possible, T ked my- self, that Allen Drake w to bring me the realization of the absurd secret ambition I had cherished from early girlhood, but had put away from me when I married—the ambition to con- struct a workable code, absolutely baffling to a one not famillar with its de code which ould have its fo ations in the cuneiform in- scriptions I had studied with old Prof. Severance?

Instead, it gave the st potent fillip in the world to a worker—that of competi- tion. Is Lillian Suspicious? I put my hand quickly to my bodice in which I had thrust the transcrip- tions of the names Allen Drake had given me, and more important stil the copies of the queer characte which had baffled the great expert, and to which T felt I had the key. It was an instinctive appr e ges- ture, for I know that I should h no peace of mind while those scrawls of such vital importance were in 1. it was a d betraying gesture, as I realized w I saw Lillian standing in the doorv of my room, evidently waiting for i Had she seen that quick, protecting movement? 1 could not tell, but 1 fervently hoped she had not. Wit} resolution I put aside for future ex- amination the inctive feeling I had that Lillian must not gain from me any possible hint of the aid I was attempting to give Al Drake. If she ever learr it, the knowledge must come from the government agent himsel!. And yet the neces of keping so vital a secret from Lillian, of all people in the world, weighed me down with a feeling of actual guilt. “I was just about to send out an ©O. 8. for you,” came up to her, coming down the corridor.” “Yes, I've been playing the role of a model daughter,” I returned flippant- ly, grasping, inanely enough, at the first words which came to me. “You're always that, I think/’ returned warm v ficiary, Dicky’s parent or your “Father wanted to dictate some let- ters to me,” I prevaricated. ‘Come on in.” Father Spencer Helps. “Sorry, but I can't,” she returned. ] want your permission to burglarize Dicky’s room. My crayons have gone flooey, and he has some peaches in there that I'm going to annex if you don’t mind."” “It annoys me terribly,” T scoffed. “Here's the key—get whatever you want.” “Merci, Madame.” She bobbed me a graceful little curtsey, and depart- ed for Dicky's room. As soon as she was out of sight T locked my door in feverish haste, and hid the papers from my dri in a secret receptacle in my trunk. Then 1 unlocked my door again and threw it open, almost upsetting my father. A glance along the corridor revealed it still empty, and I drew my father inside the room and put my lips to his ear. “Mrs. Underwood was just here,” I whispered, I told her you had been dictating letter to me. Don’t say any- thing different. I—I don’t think Mr rake would like her to know I was helping him."” My father looked at me oddly, was MONTHS OF SUFFERING How a Baltimore Girl Recov- ered Her Health Baltimore, Maryland.—“‘For several months I suffered with severe backache and general weak- ness.

She waited only for me to mention Junior's name un- certainly befors she interrupted me. “Thefe {en't a thing she has to do that I can't do for her,” she assured my father. ‘Tl attend to evirything and leave her free to help you.

And then, just as he drew back his fourth paw to strike, he knew in a flash that the thing in the tree-top was neither a Crow's nest nor a Squirrel's. It wasn't a nest at all. It was so different from a nest that Cuffy Bear gave a roar of arger. For Tommy Fox had played a trick on him. He had just missed getting his paw full of a Porcupine's quills. And such an accident was no joke. Curled in the crotch between two branches, Mr. Porcupine was having a nap. And when Cuffy Bear roared almost in his left ear he never moved Although he woke up, he was wise enough to know that he was safer just as he was, with his cruel quills all bristled over his back. “What's the matter?” Tommy Fox called to Cuffy. ‘“‘Don’t you like your supper?"” “No, I don't,” Cuffy answered. knock it down for v begged him. .

He let out one short, sharp bark, me, ‘With all the world going vacation- ing the problem of what to take and what to leave behind becomes serious.
