MARRIAGE PROBLEMS | Adele Garrison' 's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Why Madge Was Compelled to “Talk Fast” 1o Dicky Mrs It pre no other Graham eots out place “Right inside here, Mind the table thers too far, but there's for it." 1 followed Tim agent, into his office, comment that never hefore had I met 80 courteous and pleasant a railway official There was nothing perfunes tory, either, in his manner, One felt that the man was so essentially kind- Iy-souled that he could not be others wise than considerate “Just si. down here want to telephone—Caldwin? *Yes, How much is it? “Never mind that now.

The cryptic wording of that message, together: with my feverish preparations to get away from the Barker house must have ex cited a very natural curiosity in him, and he could have gratified it by staying in his office. Indeed, as I very well knew, he was straining « point to leave me alone in his official sanctum, and I was correspondingly grateful, . The long-distance telephone opera- tor, however—curt, inefficlent and disobliging—jangled again the nerves soothed by Mr. Bo: s possession of Jjust the opposite qualities. By the time I was connected with the Astorla hotel in Caldwin, and had succeeded in making an unusually thick-headed clerk understand to whom I wished to talk, I was falrly quivering with nervous rage. The timbre of Dicky's voice, when I finally succeeded in getting him to the telephone, was not calculated to the station mental Royee. with the Where do you be 1 pour any oil upen the troubled 'i\el of my spirit "What's the matter? he demand- ed when I had sueceeded in making | !him understand whe was ' talking to.

WHY HAS ALICE LIED? BEGIN HERE TODAY KATE WARD, her husband, DAN WARD, dead, returned to her child- hood village to care for her widower father, JUSTIN PARSONS. To their cottage came CHINATOWN ALICE, with the story that Dan was the father of Alice’s child, DOROTHY. Later came word of Dorothy's illness. Intending to help the child, Kate visited Alice at the laundry of SING LOY, with whom the latter lived. Alice directed her to St. Anthony's hos- pital, but on calling, Kate meets with the answer that no such child s there. GO ON WITH THE STORY Kate Ward wondered if she understood the nurse correetly. “You have no such patient? thy is not here?'” she said. “No.” The nurse looked at Kate strangely. “Could you have made a mistake in hospitals?” she suggested. “No." Kate was turning to leave. he stopped at the nearest drug re and telephoned the laundry of Sing Loy. She asked for Alice. “Dorothy isn't at the hospital,” she said when she heard the girl's voice at the other end of the wire. ““You said she was taken to St. Anthony's, didn’t you?" “Yes, she's there,” snapped Alice. “But I've been there and found that ghe isn't,” persisted Kate. “She is!” Alice replaced ceiver. Kate was stunned. She stood for a second with the receiver in her hand, then hung it on its hook and made her way to the street. She pondered the thing, had Doro- the re- and at K THIS actually happened and is well worth telling. ‘The drug clerk was just about to close up. It was getting late, The last policeman to rub his nose against the plate glass win- dow, was far down the avenue when the clerk switched off the electric lights and turned the lock. Then it all happened. A man rushed up to the door, “Say, man, I want a hox of Beecham’s Pills. Simply must have them!” he exclaimed. “Store’s closed for the day,” re- marked theclerk ashe pocketed the key. “Like thunder it is!” shouted the late comer, “I've got to have a box of Beecham's Pills tonight.” The altercation grew heated. There was an exchange of blows. Then the clerk took off his broken glasses, unlocked the door and handed out a 50 cent box of Beecham’s Pilla. Can you beat it? ‘Beecham’s Pills are so pleasant- in ing sick stom- sheepishly. “But I don't believe any of your exercises would suit-my style. I shall have to do some dif- ferent ones.
