t | \ | 1 NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERATD, PROBLEMS Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Way Madge and Katherine Swiftly Met The news from Grace Draper's lips that Harry Underwood himself was the Big Tangerine, coupled with the knowledge of his perfidy, to which T had listened unseen by either him or the woman in whose power I was, gave me the feeling of having been suddenly drawn down into swirling ocean waves, Once T had that experience in real- ity, when—in the first year of my marriage and of my acquaintance with Grace Draper—she had clutched my foot one day when we were swim- ming, and had drawn me underneath the water in a mad attempt to drown me. Then not yet hardened to mur- der, she had brought me to the sur- face again after a hard vattle, That she had regretted her weak- ness as she termed it, many times, ¥ knew, and I had no misgivings as to her curse now that she had me in her power. But to know that my only hope of rescue, Harry Underwood's intervention with the Big Tangerine, of whom he had spoken so confidently, had been but a mockery, this wei:- nigh blotted out consclousness from me. It was only. the blind struggle for 1ife til the last breath, which brought me up from the abyss of unconscious- ness which yearned for me, and gave me strength to listen longer, “It is nothing to you,” Harry Un- derwood was saying, “what the Big ‘Tangerine does or does not do. But do you imagine—'' there was sudden ferocity in his voice—"that I have “waited years for the chance to tame that proud, sneering, little devil, to pay her back for affronts you know nothing of, and then let .you.snatch the opportunity away from me? Not in a million years! Give me the key to that room this instant, and don't you dare to show your face there un- til I came back again! I can’t wait to go up there now.” An Effective Threat. “1 will not give you the key,” Grace Draper returned steadily, “and I am going to headquarters with your in- terference and with the real name of the nurse you bgought in here yes- terday. I don’t know what you'r try- ing to do—" “Perhaps the same stunt ‘you're : planning,” the man replied, slowly, significantly, “For the last time, will breathing, and feverishly = began to crews of the lock whiéh held the door separating the batn. room from the next room.

I wondered how loud a call I dgred risk, when I heard a tense whisper through the keyhole. “Who is 1t?" When I anawered “Madge !” there was a gasp of amazement, the bolt slid back, and Katherine Bickett was in my arms, . “What's your name?”’ she he chlldren, cried, “B.B-Big+ B-B.BiIN" pered, “Ha!

You weren't either! How stupld of me!” she added. And COUNTING NOSES, Grandma. Goose had counted twelve children, filing one by one out of the house in the early morning. “This is queer,”” she “With Big Bill missing, there ought to be only eleven.” She made the youngsters go into the house again, so she could count them as they came out once more. | | | | muttered. | !nho gave Big Bill a shake, | "“You wsaid you'd forgive,” | whined. : “So I did!” sald Grandma. ‘“How | THE YOUNG LADY ACROSS THE WAY he | SATURDAY, APRIL 7, 1928, DAILY FVASHION SERVICK, Frocks, Intended For Use, Ornamental Too chickens, do her marketing or start spring housecleaning.

Sallie, it does seem to me that anyone with any sense at all should know that two people who enter into the intimate contact of mar. riage, expecting to be happy, should know. each other thoroughly before they make the public declarations and vows of love. 1 said as much the other evening when a few of us Had seftled our- selves about the big fireplace in the Hamiiton billlard-room and Sydney Carton announced, amid hilarlous laughter, “I am afraid that under Letter from Beatrice Grimshaw to/ Sallic Atherton, Friend of the New- | | emnized the marriage ceremony be- tween Miss Leslie Hamlilton and Mr. | Never in the | | annals of Sharon soclety has | years ago, and yesterday, | walked up to the chancel rail on her | Seours.
