Adele Garrison's New FPhase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Made to floor, whichever happened to be handfest, 1 had given him the hed. room, and taken the living room with its disguised davenport as my own sleeping chamber. My comb and brush and other toilet articles 1 kept in a drawer of the writing desk, but my bath robe, kimono and night dresses were hung up in the big ward- robe which served as our only closet in Dicky's room. T was just wondering how T was to [met them, when the glass door opened a crack, and through it hurled a bun. dle, which falling apart as it struck the floor, sent all my night and early morning requirements-—ineluding my mules, my oxfords and a morning honse gown-—sprawling in a dozen dl- rections. Dicky had forgotten noth. ing, and my anger against him was distinctly mitigated with amusement as 1 surveyed the heterogeneous col- lection upon the floor of the living room. But that there was no diminu- tion of Dicky's anger, 1 realized as T heard the door close again with an angry cliek. The Deciston Madge Swiftly Meet Dicky's Ultimatum | Dicky's sneering to me as ‘“‘Joan-of-Arc-with-the.fagots-fust- lighting,”” was the last match needed to set the powder magazine of my temper abalaze One of my husband's most effective ways of inflirlating me s to refer to me as ‘“martyr-like’ <1 sometimes wonder if my wrathful reaction to the accnsation is not hecanse of my suh consclous recognition of a soupec truth in ft-—and the words in whic he had couched his ultimatum con- cerning our finding another place had been especially blistering. The one advantage 1 have in any tilt with Dicky has its roots in the essential difference of our tempera- ments. When he is angry he uncon- sciously works himself Into a rage whieh becomes more tempestuous as it advances. But as a general thing, the more angry I am, the more quiet hecomes my voice, and the more con-| trolled becomes my demeanor. Fe- tore I let myself go, I am like a seeth ing volcano, but the mere act of| loosening the reins on my wrath changes me to an lceberg, with 4 frigidity of voice and mien which gen-| erally stands ma in good stead in any | controversy. “T—Will—Not !" 8o, with every nerve taut but con- trolled, I threw back my head and faced my irate husband steadily. | “You mean then, I infer, to break| ' our budget agreement to pay only 0| much for rent because we wish to gave for Junior?'' 1 put the query| iefly. “I mean to get out of this blasted | hole, no. manvr what 1 pay or flhfl' reference ,‘Ezpv TIME TALES v Bugletared> MORE_TALES OF BYARTHUR SCOTT BAILEY e \l\l BEAR \ll\\l \ I.I'NFH N.

Dicky Settles One Question I purposely made each word phatic and stressed the pauses be-| tween them. Then I turned away, as| if Dicky's reaction to my ultimatum was a matter of no interest to me In reality, however, my nerves were tensely fused into one burning inter- rogation point. I did not have to walt| Jong for an answer, however.

Big Foot inquired with a broad smile, | And that made Mr. Bear furious. | The rage that was seething inside Tim glared out of his lttle eyes. Half a minute later Mr. Bear caught Big Fott unawares and gave him a buffet that dropped that vast person in his tracks. “Now!" roared Mr. Rear. next?" “That's certainly Father,” Bear murmured, as he craned neck around a young spruce tree.

Many people object to oil on a salad, but it should be served a little at a time. Of course, cream is a good substitute and a quick dressing may be made by adding to stiffly beaten cream, cil, vinegar, salt and pepper in the usual proportions for I'rench dressing. Everyone should onions. Combining vegetables is satisfactory change. Peas and car- rots, white turnips and carrots, tur- nips and spinach, spinagh and beets, and many others, alwdwys chnnning colors which go well together, Po®%.toes, carrots, turnips, celery and peas, added to a cream sauce to | which is added a little curry powder is not only appetizing btu a good way to us left-over vegetahles, Cooked vegetables rubbed through a sicve may be made into a souffle or | timbales. When served with cheese sauce they are very satisfying and contain a goodly amount of fuel value, 1 am sure the reason for so many persons disliking vegetables is because they had them served to them when children always in the same unattrac- tive way. And many times a vege- tubie is made less attractive by put- ting over it a poorly made white sauce Meited butter, and little lemon juice or yolk added, is much better.

ASK RETURN 0F THEATER Russwin Lyceum Corporation Brings Action Against Lyceum Amusement Co., Charging Failure to Pay Taxes.| Because the Lyceum An\uurmenl' company is alleged to have failed to pay taxes to the eity of New Britain due on July 1, 1821, or any taxes since that time, a summary process proceeding has been hrought through | Attorney Henry Nowicki to secure| possession of the theater.

Buchanan, | ker et al., | strict NEW BIBLE VERSION RAISES UP WOMAN Also Said to Ignore Hell, Baptism and Judgment Day New York, Aprl 27.—An old con- troversy flared up today among Bib- lical and Latin scholars over the as- for- nier manuscript curator of the His- panic society of America, that he has discovered a second century version of the New Testament. The New York Times today quoted Dr. Bu- ichanan as saying that the new version furnished no basis for belief in the day of judgment, the end of the world, baptism and hell, and assigns {{o woman a more superior place than previously accepted versions. Dr. Buchanan's text was taken from vellum manuscripts known as the codex huntingtonianus palimpsestus, supposedly brought here after it was stolen from a Spanish monastery. His assertion that he deciphered the text after months of patient reading of underwriting which has been washed out by acid but which was indelibly imprinted by a steel instru- ment by the original writer, is con- tradicted by others who, say they carefully examined the manuscript.

This act is a small show in itself, pre- senting not only Rex in his mind reading exhibitions, but also three other personages, one of whom f{s Miss Minnie Huber of this city who appears as a dancer. A violin se-|t! lection or two and the singing of|s “The Song of India,” by one of the original members of the Chu Chin Chow company, also are featured. One of the'women in the company does marvelous stunts blindfolded, including reading by 'he sense of touch, discerning color in the same way, and walking about the crowded theater without any difficulty. This act has made a big impression wher- ever it has played and in Kansas City, where it played earlier in the season, it was held over for three weeks, so great was the popular interest mani- fested in it.
