MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE What Jim Told Katie About His De- cision to Come Fome, “It fsn't very much to tell,” Jim bey deprecatingly, “and I'm think- ing you'll find it hard to belleve, but Just as sure as I'm standing here, it all happened today exactly as Katle sald “just now. I was sitting on a| ,boat this morning with my head in| my hands. I was worfying a lot about her—" he gestured toward his| wide-eyed wite, | “And," he drew a long breath, "1] was wondering what was best to do, And then I heard her voice call my name twice—just as plain as I heard her speak just now. It was so real I looked up and all around to see Ir! perhaps she had found out where I was, Then I was sure I had been dreaming., 1 couldn't figure it out any other way, But I made up my mind I wasn't going to wait an hour| longer to come back. And now to| 4hink Katie saw me sitting there and really did call me! How do you ex.| plain that, ma'am?” He looked in bewlldered fashion at Lillian, “We don’t explain those 'hlnn,l Jim,” Lilllan said gently, “We only | know that sometimes when peoplo; love each other very grealy, things happen to them such as you and! Katle described just now. Mrs. Gra-| ham and I are very glad you heara her call you and decided to come! back. She needs you. We have been| worrying @bout her."” | “I'll Tell Him Everything.” “I ought to have come back long before,” Jim sald contritely. “But then I'd get to thinking of the way things were when I left, and I didn't know what was right to do. I didn't want—" ! “There's an explanation coming to you, Jim,”I said briskly, “and when you get it I'm sure your mind will be easy. Now, suppose you go up- stairs to your rooms and rest a bit| while you're waiting for your sup- per. It won't be long, for Mrs. Un- derwood and I will help Katie get it.| And then we'll all have a little talk.” He looked at me oddly. I think he realized that Lillian and I did not| wish to give him an opportunity to see Katie alone until we had ud:tedj in the explanation due him. “Thank you,” he said gratefully, and turning, clumped up the kitchen stairs in his old familiar fashion.' Katie, with her face paling, spoke lnl‘ low, nervous tones as the sound of his| closing door came to our ears. ! “You tell heem, plees,” she said. “Yes, Katie, I'll tell him every-| thing,” I reasured her. “Now, fly around and get Jim the best supper you can think of.” Jim Is Not Hungry. Katie considered a half-minute. “I broil heem slice ham, und fry some eggs, und varm oop potatoes vay he likes, und heat some dose muffing, und make some coffee, and varm_dose apple dumplings, und—*" “1 think that ought to hold him for tonight at least,” Lillian laughed. JGo to it, JKatle! I'll set Jim's place| at the table here.” | “T'Il slice the potatoes” I volun-| teered, and with both of us assisting Katie she was able to put a bountifus meal on the table in record time. I ran up the stairs and summoned Jim with a low call, for I had no de-| sire to waken Mother Graham, There was a hint of shyness in his manner 85 he came back into .the kitchen, but Lillian. soon banishea that with questions concerning the| town in which he had worked while away, and he tackled his supper boldly. L I always have considered Jim a valiant trencherman, but I soon saw that despite his long trip without food he was not doing full justice to the meal. Katie watched him with troubled eyes. “You no like my cookin' any more, Jeem?” she asked, sorrowfully. “It's better than ever, Katie, girl,"” he reassured her. “But—I'm not very hungry, 1 guess.” “Drink your coffee,” I commandea, “and Katle, put the rest of his dinner where it will kecp hot. He will feel more like eating it in a few minutes.” Jim turned to me with both pawn and humility written in his face. “I—I can’'t help thinking about things, ma'am, but—I—I don't want you to think that Katie needs to tell me anything.

The pair of bays were harnessed to the wagon, And they couldn't— or wouldn't—pull it out of the mire. Farmer Green walked to the horse barn, where his son Johnnie and the hired man were working. “The load 18 stuck in the mud,” he told them. “If Bright and Broad weren’t ‘way up in the back pasture they'd pull the wagon out. But it would take a good hour to drive them down here.’ The oxen, Bright and Broad, were a famous pair. They were wonder- lIully strong—and wonderfully slow, 00. “There’s old Ebenezer. You might T showed ‘em!” Mistah Mule brayed loudly. hitch him in front of the bays,” the hired man suggested. Farmer Green shook his head. “The old horse would pull until he dropped. I'm afraid he might hurt himself,” he replied. “Why don't you use the mule?" cried Johnnie Green, “I could try him, I suppose,” said his father. “But I'm almost certain he won't pull an ounce.” *Oh do try him pa!” Johnnie Green begged. When he wasn't driving Mis- tah Mule himself, Johnnie liked to see that stubborn fellow balk. Both the old horse Ebenezer and Mistah Mule, who stood side by side in the barn, pricked up their ears and listened to all this talk. “Huh!” Mistah Mule grunted, as he cocked an eye at his neighbor. “They needn’t think I'se a-goin’ to hurt my- self a-pullin’ on their ole wagon.” “I don't blame you the least bit,” the old horse Ebenezer told him. “To| be sure, you're a stout chap. Maybe you could yank the wagon out of the| mud-hole—if the bays would pull too| —without much trouble. But why! should you do that?" | It amazed Mistah Mule to hear such | advice from old Ebeneczer, And a very | stubborn look came over his face. i “I suttingly could twitch that wag- on out quick—if I wanted to,” he de- clared. “But you don't want to,” said Eb-| enezer. “If you tried—and failed—" | “Don't talk to me, ole hoss!" snap- | ped Mistah Mule. “You got 'nuff to 'tend to if you minds your own bus'-| ness.” i Al ] A MEDIGINE MADE FROM_ FRUIT “FRUIT-A-TIVES” Is: Intengl- fled Julces of Apples, Oranges, Figs and Prungs COMBINED WITH TONICS Thoextraordinary powersof*Fruit. a-tives” or “Fruit Laxo Tablets" in curing disease are due to one fact, andone fact only—ITISAGENUINE FRUIT MEDICINE, MADE FROM THE JUICES OF FRESH, RIPE FRUITS, By a remarkable discovery of one of the leading physicians, the juices of apples, oranges, figs and Pprunes are transformed into a new compound which hasall the medicinal properties of fresh fruit and in a more marked degree 4 To theso intensified fruit juices are added tonies and antiseptics, and the entire value of *‘ Fruit-a-tives’ is due to this unique combination of fruit Juices and tonics. “Fruit-a-tives” has proved its remarkable value in thousands and thousands of cases of Stomach, Liver and Kidney Trouble—in Headaches, Rheumatism and Neuralgia—in chroe nic Constipation and Dyspepsia—in Nervousness, Skin Diseases, Poor Blood and a general *un-down condis tion of the system.

Farmer Green told the hired man bhe was never so surprised in his life.

There is also much satin-faced moire and faille. Chemise Frocks Because of the vogue for all-over embroidery and for figured silks, the chemise frock is to be very popular this summer. Afternoon gowns, it is sald, will be very long or very short. Modified Bustle The bustle, in modified form, is be- ing featured on some Parls importa- tions. iJsually it takes the form of a very large taffeta bow or a shirred puft, Scarfs Fashionable Scarfs are a part of nearly all the elaborate cvening frocks for the com- ing season. Often they are of gold or silver lace and are fastened to the costume instead of an accessory. Suede and Feathers A fashionable hat of suede has a brim made of tiny feathers.

There is a story going the rounds of the Newspaper club in New York | that before “Rain” was brought into New York, some one of the produc- ing staff got an idea that the play needed a bedroom scene. A promin. ent playwright was called in to do the| doctoring, but the driginal author flatly objected. Then the play was brought into New York with the ex- pectation that it would last a week or two. That was some months ago. Today “Rain” is just about the best drama that has ever hit New York, It is next to impossible to buy seats. | The play has a wonderful cast and it stands out in a season of brilliantly acted plays. Proof that the public will support good, clean, wholesome plays and musical comedies is in the fact that “Maytime,” a Shubert production on the road for six consecutive seasons, will play in Hartford again this year on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of next week. This production was once seen at the Lyceum theater in New Britain three years ago. At the Orpheus club concert Thurs- day evening Mrs. Howard King was accompanist at the piano and William Bishop accompanist at the organ, Mr. Bishop's masterful playing of “The Lost Chord" was especially de- lightful.
