MY MARRIAG Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE | "% s v s it What Dicky DId to Give \trm His Rage Over Tom Ches Dicky heard How much had and seen ! This was my first panic-stricken thought as 1 encountered him in the doorway of my father's room where young Tom Chester was convalescing.

In my panic, toward my husband. to my lips in a warning to silence. 1 saw Dicky's lips open wrathfully,| with a groan. “Where can I find a| and 1 shivered in anticipation of the|sunbonnet?" | violent exclamatlon which was| trembling upon them. But even be- fore the first syllable left his lips, Lillian's hand upon his arm literally jerked him away from the door, and her gesture to me brought me rush- ing noiselessly through the door into the corridor. “Now, You Crazy Idlot !" Lillian closed the door after me, still| silently, and with a nod to me to fol-| low, drew Dicky masterfully down the corridor_to the door of my room. No| other )v‘rson on earth could have kept his temper from exploding for| those few seconds save the woman to whom Dicky feels he owes so great a debt of gratitude for the sacrifice she made for him so many years ago. “Now you crazy idiot !" Lillian ad- monished, releasing his coat-sleeve and giving him a little push into my| room, “keep 'em inside this room!| .

Then I faced my husband with a courage stiffened by Lillian's last| mocking words.

Just cut it out, no I don’t want another word of it. What I want, and cursed quick, too, is an ex- | planation of « that exquisite little| Romeo and Juliet farewell I heard pulled off down the hall.” So he had heard and seen every- thing ! I pulled myself together, with | the resolve to say nothing in answer to his angry tirades. I reckoned,| however, without Dicky's ability for| blistering words. He paused for a| second or two after his ultimatum, then rushed into hot angry specch again. “I don't wonder you haven't a word | to say !” he shouted. "I'm glad you have that much sense of decency at least. For there isn't any explana- tion you could give if you hunted for| one for a year_ But, by the Lternal, | I gave you credit for better taste !

A merry battle is brewing in repub- lican circles in the first ward because of an announcement by Alderman George H. Wells, who has decided not to run for office again, that he favors the election of Councilman B..C. Morey as his successor. Councilman Henry W. Rice is also an aspirant for the position and friends of both can- didates predict that, 1f both remain in the race, the result will not beé known until the last ballot is counted at the primaries, Rice has another year to serve as councilman, but has decided to try on a_ pair of, aldermanic shoes, if he can find a pair to fit. C. H. Maxon is a candidate for councilman. There is some doubt whether H. 8. Hart will run again for councilman, and in the event that he desires to retire, it will be necessary to name someone cise for his place. It is said that a dark horse is being groomed and will be trotted out at the opportune moment, if Councilman Hart decides to leave the common council. Mr. Hart iy now on a trip to South America.

If hostess and host must be carefully consid- crate, so must the guest. Hospitality is a privilege well worth cultivating, but it never must be imposed upon.
