MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Reckloss Ruse Madge Tried and the Race She Ran As I saw the gray limousine ap- proaching——the same car, 1 was sure ==which had trailed my taxi on Fifth avenue, a feeling of panic almost made me control of the wheel.| It lasted for only the rraction of a | second, however, and then 1 forced| my brain to planning my course. | TLat they were looking for me it| was foolish to question, after Lillian’s warning. | With the thought that there was| ore chanee in a thosand of their not 1ecognizing me if | vent over the| wheel and dashod past them, I erouched low, and pressed my foot on | the acc ator. But before the car had covered much more than its own jength the vision of my little lad stopped me. They must not be per- mitted to come near him, It they obtained a good look at me, I reasoned, they would, ne doubt, turn the car and start in pursuit of me, and even if T eluded them, which, with a sinking heart, I doubted, they would realize that my trail led away | from the farmhouse instead of toward | it. The car was almost upon me, pro-, ceeding at a leisurely pace, and TI| guessed that someone within it was| watching the road. Being careful nor | to stall my engine, I brought my own | car to a stop, held out my hand 1in the usual motorist's signal for aid. | “What Do You Want?" The gray limousine slowed, swung in so close to me that the fenders of the two cars almost touched. I had left myself plenty of space at the right, however, and 1 had my car ready for a touch to send it onwarc. But I needed all the resolution I haa to keep myself sanely polsed when Y| saw in the car the fashlonably yash- mak-veiled woman, whe, I was sure, was Grace Draper. She neither moved nor spoke as the car halted. Only her eyes gleamed in- scrutably between the folds of tne veil shrouding her face. But a power- ful-looking man at her side growled discourteously: at do you want?"” this,” I said rapidly. “You 1 nobody you wish at the farm- | Mrs. Underwood and my father | have gone to Washington, and I am | on my way to New York for two days.” I did not wait for an answer, for| at my weeds both the chauffeur and | the big man sprang to the gréund.

And then I tearing down the road, getting every ounce! of speed out of my small car, men-| tally calculating the chances of react ing some village or farmhouse before | they should overtake me. A Quick Decision It was an almost hopeless outloolk, | 1 knew, for T had been over the road sufficiently to remember that I was upon a particularly lonely stretch. No use either to appeal to any passing motorist, even if a car should come 1n| was sight. There was more than a chance | that the motorist would not stop, ana 1 should lose valuahle time by slowing up. Never in my motoring career have I ever thought T would long to see a motorcycle officer halt my car, but 1 subconsciously prayed for a sight of the familiar uniform, even though T knew how hopeless the petition was. It was the season of the ar when the force numbers its fewest men, and each has an immense ameunt of ter-| ritory to cover. 1 did not dare to turn my head at the speed 1 was going, but I knew if| no accident had hefallen the gra limousine it would be upon me be- fore many more minutes, or perhaps seconds. It was a powerful, costly car-—in comparison to its engine mine was a child’s wind-up toy—Its chauf- feur was an experienced driver, and the race could have but one conclu- sion.

I'm only going to have pretty giris to be my bridesmaid and go I answered—"Oh, yes, with the exception of my young sister here, they are all classmates at school.” Her face fell at this, and Mary Alden spoke up—"No bridegroom gets much consideration at his own wed- ding, dors he?

Then add a tablespoon of lemon juite and a cup of ginger ale, Place the dish in a pan of cold water and as it (the liquid) begins to stiffen, fold in two cups of mixed fruit. Turn into a mold, or individual molds, and chill. Serve on lettuce to which has been cream. In place of the gelatin, which has to be soaked and dissolved, with the addition of lemon juice and sugar, use any of the prepared lemon gelatin mixtures. A good combination of fruit is or- ange, apple, canned pineapple, cher- ries, or, in season, raspberries and strawberries, banana and marshmal- lews.

Yes, T think that's about all of interest that happened. Those two girls never did say a word unless I started the| conversation.

Darling, I'm so glad we are not go- ing to live in your old town. I never| could be friends with your Priscilla Bradford if I should live to be a thousand years old. You haven't said one word to me about whether you ever told another | girl you loved her. Surely you did; not tell that Bradford girl that, did| you? Don't think it is too trivial a question to answer, John, for T could not bear it if 1 thought you had| made love to some other girl in just| the dear way that you have made| love to me.

Adams of the Assyrian mission of the Soutn Congregational church preached the second in a ser- ies of Lenten sermens last evening, his topic being “The Second Birth.” His text was St. John, 3:3, in which Jesus spoke to Nicosemus, the great teacher of Israel. Jesus told him that men must be born again if they wish to be true children of God and of heaven, Nicodemus could not under- stand the meaning of being ‘“horn again.”” Rev. Mr. Adams said that this was not strange as there are a great many people in vhis age who are called Christians, who attend church and study the Bible, but who cannot understand the meamng of the words. “I dare say there are a good many religious leaders Lke Nicodemus, preaching and teaching, who are not ‘born again,”’ he dectared. ‘“The new birth converts the man just like the wind,” Rev. Mr. Adams said. “He can feel in his heart that a great change is coming over him, cleansing and purifying him, and making him complete.” Connecticut Highway Dept.
