MY HUSBAND'S LOVE Adele Garrison ® New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Mother Graham Changes Fer Mind Twice in Two Minutes 1 threw up my hand In & warning gesture to Mother G aham as she ae: gompanied her call for Katie with a query to me concerning my little mald’s whereabouts which contained the obnoxious epithet, “ape of a girl It is an invariable practice of hers en referring to Katle, although 1 have noticed that she is eareful never 10 use the words in the girl's presence Put | had heard Katie's quick foot steps in the hall outside, and feargd her acute liearing would cateh the offensive phrase 1 might have saved my effort, how aver, for Mother Graham, upon prin ciple, never heeds a gesture or any- thing savering of compnision, from any living being, uniess the neeessity for it has heen explained to her in words of three syllables, Two or three humiliating experiences in the presence of guests. warning nudge of the foot or hand was re celved with a fleree “Margaret, what fn the world are you trying to do’” have made me exceedingly wary of her possibilities for precipitating domestic cataclysins, 1 had the satisfaction, however, of geeing her register distinet ambarrass. ment when Katie's knoek sounded on the door. It was an unusually mili- tant rat-tat-tat, at which I winced, for 1 feared that it signalled an out. burst from my faithful but temperas mental and tempery little maid, “Do you suppose she heard me y mother-in-law's apprehensive volce was In ludicrous contrast to the autocratic inflections with which she had called for Katie An Unexpected Reply | “I'm afraid she did,” I whispered back. “"Well, go on out and then,"” Mother Graham Bhe is never abashed more than a fraction of a second by anything, “Katie is your maid, not mine, and if ghe chooses to take offense at a name which describes her perfectly, the gooner she leaves the better” The only consolation 1 had concern- ing that outrageous little speech was thet it was couched in low tones, in-. audible to the girl on the other side of the door. But my heart was hot within me as I walked toward t@e door. It was a situation only too familiar to me, this in which T had to soothe Katle's justly wounded sensibilities aft- er some inconsiderate performance of my mother-in-law’s, and the insouci- ance with which the older woman! shifted the burden of her verbal in-| discretion to my shoulders angered| me. “I agree with you,” I said coldly,| “althought it wili be a trifle inconven-| fent to have her ieave just now. But I imagine we can get Mrs, Ticer to come in."” “Come Back Here !" It was a Parthian shaft, for while Mother Graham is always in a state of armed neutrality with Katie, she/ infinitely prefers her presence in the! kitchen to that of Mrs. Ticer. Katie yields to Mother Grahamin a deference born of her early alien peas- ant training which Mrs. Ticer, who| can boast as long a line of purely Am-| erican ancestry as Mother Graham herself, never thinks of offering. Mrs. Ticer is always courteous, but her manner to each of us is that of one good neighbor to another. I ac-| cept it indeed, enjoy it thoroughly, but my mother-in-law resents it, al- though she is shrewd enough not to| show her feeling openly. But I knew that the prospect of havin independ-| ent Mre. Ticer installed a temporary ! housekeeper during the visit of Moth- er Graham's daughter and famous gon-in-law, fresh from an establish- ment of perfectly tralned maids,| would be anathema to my mother-in- | law’s soul, ‘ "“Margaret ! Come back There was a distinct nete of frantic appeal in Mother Graham's voice as ‘leaving her my icy little speech on which to,reflect, I walked to the door. I pretended not to hecar her, and slipped quickly out of the door, clos- ing it behind me, before Katie could speak. That the girl had heard the slight- ing reference of Mother Graham was plain. All the signals of mutiny were flying from her glinting ey and GOULD HARDLY - DO ANY WORK Since Taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound This Woman Feels So Well when a settle her, sald crisply.
