MY HUSBA Adele Garrison ND’S LOVE ® New Fhase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Method Madge Fmploysd to Help Tella I spent & most uncomfortable hour during the dinner which 1 had pre pared for the Durkees with Tess Dean's aid. Thers was nothing the matter with the viands, indeed, we were the recipient of many ex er ated compliments upen our culinary skill from Alfred, while little Mrs Durkee and Leila voiced their ap- proval In ne uncertain terms Rut the shadows of two unpleasant and diffieult tasks loomed before me, rob bing me of my appetite and increas- ing the tension of my nerves Before the evening ended I must fuifill my promise to Mrs, Durkee that I would tell Alfred and Leila of Dr Foxham's verdict concerning an eper- ation for her, thus sparing her the ordeal of revelation, and I meant also to find out just what mischief Bess Dean was engaged In manufacturing That there was some secred batween her and Alfred which Leila did pot share, 1 was as sure as 1 was that the attraction which Bess had for Al fred held nothing in it to give Leila cause for real uneasin 1 came to these conclusions at the close of the dinner, during which 1 gurtively watched Alfred and Bess Dean. That he admired the brilllant, sparkling girl immensely, was plain- 1y to be seen, but that reaction to her was one of mentality rather than of the emotions, was also evident. On the other hand, Alfred’s tender pro tecting love for his fragile wife was to be seen in every word and glance toward her. What Madge Feared 1 suddenly remembered Lilllan's trenchant words to me upon an oc- casion when Dicky's friendship with Edith Fairfax was causing me uneasi- ness. ““Remember,” she had sald “the| wife has the game in her own hands/ if she only chooses to play it.” But would Leila play the game, or would she spoll everything by betray- ing the jealousy of Bess Dean ghich I guessed was racking her? Nothing could so surely anger and disgust Al.| fred, for with the usual maaculine blindness to the faults of a pretty and | clever woman, he patently coneidered Bess a friend of the family whose af- fronting would be a cardinal ein. That Leila could not stand the strain of pretence long, I was sure as I caught the feverish brightness of her eyes and her heightened color, | when after digner, Alfred carried her into the living room and deposited her in an easy armchair before the | big fireplace. Her eyes did not leave him while he coaxed the logs inte a| brighter blaze, and his mother, Bess and I drew our chairs close to the fire. “Look At That Clocl “It fen’t fair!"” I said to myself hotly, noting the cool insouciance of Bess Dean's manner, and stirred for Leila against my former colleague as I never had been for myself. The two woémen were most unequally pitted in the contest. Bess Dean was a woman | of the world, brilliant, cool, calculat-| ing, inordinately vain, and while not really wieked, T had no hesitancy in| dubbing her unprincipled in many re-| spects. Lella Durkee, on the other hand, | possessed neither Bess Dean's men-| tality nor her poise. She was a\sn‘ without a trace of the other wom-| an’s unpleazant traits, for Leila is Ln-‘ sweetest, gentlest creature in the world, as incapable of a mean or un-| derhanded action as she is of fighting | her own battles unaided. She is one of the women who need protecting| all her life, and her husband was lav- | ishing that protection upon her. The citadel of her life had seemed im- pregnable until the inordinate van- ity and diabolical cleverness of Bess Dean had made a breach in the wall at the only place where Alfred could not come to her aid. With grim determination, masked by smiles, T kept the conversation in my own hands through the hours following our dinner. I knew that Leila would not mind any exchange of badinage between Alfred and me,| and I proceeded to indulge in what little Mrs. Durkee declared to be a most outrageous flirtation with her son. In my mother.in-law's par- lance, T did not permit Bess Dean “to get & word in edgeways." “1 declare, Leila,”” she gaid with a twinkls in her eye which betrayed to me how thoroughly she was enjoying Bess Dean's discomfiture, "I wouldn't stand the way Madge is carrying on ASPIRIN Say “Bayer” and Insist! age or on genuine tabiets you are not Rayer prod safe by mil. on pac getting the pre cribed by physicians and proved Tonthache Lum Earache Rheum Neuralgia Pair Aceapt “Bayer Tabict Each unbroken | s proper directin slve tablets cost few cents.
