MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adele Garvison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Way Dicky Took the Presence of Don Ramon Almires.

He was having an hour of enforced solitude in which——when his baffled rage should have time to spend itself—he would, without doubt, take stock of the situvation and try to vis- ualize our probable movements.

Afterward, perhaps, of my own wish, I shall tell you,” she said. “Yes, dear,” Latham ventured. The car sped over the road. Kate was happy. Almost happier, she thought, than ever she had been with 1 AN “OLD PrLL” Tmrmmmmm packed a terrible grouch, a mighty igritable stomach and a liver that refused to do the things that all good livers should.

Kate was leaving the car. The bell tinkled as she opened the door of the laundry. Sing Loy smiled gently from behind the counter. He| remembered her. Looking back into the ironing room, Kate saw Alice standing at a board, an iron in her hand. | Near her, playing with some furnityre, was Dorothy. Alice looked up. Her eyes met Kate's. She stood for a second in startled indecision. Then she made a move toward Dorothy.

SHAPLEIGH Of Columbla University Like everybady elsc, the house- keeper occasionally finds herself face to face with an emergency—inability to do her usual work, the sickness of some member of her family, the un- expocted departure of cook or mald, unscheduled company, a tradesman’s fallure to deliver supplies ordered. For such cases the wise housewife keeps on hand material fbr certain dishes she can prepare quickly. Food in Cans. Canned fruits, vegetables, meat, fish and soups meet most requirements. Dried or evaporated milk can be used with just as good results as fresh. Evaporated milk easily takes the place of cream. A can of cracker crumbs, made by rolling any broken, unsweetened crackers, a tin of dried bread crumbs, a jar of grated cheese, all help to make a dish simply and speedily. A can of clam broth and a can of vegetable soup, put together, give a good chowder. It is well to sift together flour; bak- ing powder and salt and keep this mixture in a tightly covered tin. Bis- cuits or dumplings can be made thus in a few minutes. Makes Good Dessert. For a quick dessert, open a can of fruit, heat to the beiling point and in it drop tiny dumplings. Cover closely and cook 10 minutes. Serve with or without cream. Mayonnaise and ‘boiled dressing can be kept In jare, ready for use, and in a short time we can serve a fruit salad. A little thought ahead, and with- out “making an emergency”’ each day, much worry and irritation are avoid- ed. ey Gossip’s Corner e ————— Crystal Beads Crystal beads of fairly good size make attractive necklaces when al- ternated with small jet beads.

The author, John Stapleton, chose for his chief char- acter an Egyptologist. Ofthand that would appear to doom any play. But he knew that there was romance in such a character, and with the scene New York and the time the present, he’set out to show it in the midst of a series of rapid incidents. The hero, Captain Markee, is a man of the world, with a great variety of activi- ties, and his hobby of collecting rari- ties from Egypt only adds to his in- terest, especially as he does it.

It transpired, according to Mr. Duff's statoment, in casting the different characters of this opera in England, the nucleus of the Sir Thomas Beech- am Opera company was practically absorbed, the revival having been made at the Lyric theater, Hammer- smith, during the off-season at the close of the grand opera in Covent Garden. This made it possible to se- cure the services of Miss Sylvia Nel- Iis, the soprano who had created the colorature roles in “The Magic Flute” etc.; Miss Lena Maitiand, the mezzo soprano and character artist; Miss Vera Huret, contralto; Percy Hening who was cast as Amfortas in the Beecham production of ‘“‘Parsifal;" Alfred Heather, the Rudolfo in “La Boheme,” Alfred Wynn and Charles Magrath completing an exceptional gathering of really fine artists.
