[MY HUSBAND'S LOVE Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE “It won't be long until the other trooper returne from the village,” I expostulated, “and then he ean come over also. That young chap who is over there now wouldn't dare leave the house where he has been posted | if the man he wanted were leaning | over the front fence.” “I know," Jim smiled reminiscent- | ly. “I've seen fellows like that, But | there's no use walting for the other one.

I had long guessed that my ridicu- lously melodramatic old mother-in- law was jealous of the tiny badge of the diplomatic secret service which my work with Lilllan entitles me to possess, but she never had put her feeling into words before and I was anxifous that she should not suspect the mirth which her absurdity gave to me.

BY SISTER MARY HOME-MADE PICKLES The thrifty housekeeper will make her own pickles. In winter and dgpring good home made pickles stimulate many a jaded appetite and help take the place of a formal ap- petizer, Gherkins are expensive to buy when put up but not out of reach for most pocketbooks during the pickling season. They are deli- clous to serve with sandwiches for a Sunday night lunch. The midgets can be used with afternoon tea sand- wiches. Gherkins One hundred small cucumbers, quarts boiling water, 2 cups salt, 1 gallon vinegar, 4 sticks cinnamon, 6 tablespoons sugar, 2 teaspoons mus- tard seed, 4 tablespoons whole cloves, 1 tablespoon celery seed, lump of alum size of a nutmeg. ‘Wash cucumbers and wipe with a dry cloth, Put in a large deep crock and pour over brine, The brine is made by dissolving the salt in the boiling water. Cover crock with a cheesecloth and let stand three days. Drain brine to the bolling point. Pour over cucumbers and let stand three days. 2 Drain brine from cucumbers and let stand in alum water over night. Drain off alum water and let stand in | clear water for three hours. Drain | | off water. Put cucumbers, vinegar and spices | Bring to the beiling point and simmer, closely | | covered for ten minutes, Pack | | pickles in sterilized jars.

Drain off vinegar and heat | to the boiling point for three succes- | sive mornings. When cool after the | third morning cover with a big plate and store in a dark cool place. These| pickles are a dellclous aweet pickle.

With what success this was done, will be apparent when the pic- ture is shown here for the first time at the Palace theater next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Orders were given Jack Cunning- ham, the scenarist who adapted “The Covered Wagon,” to write a picture story for Mr. Holt, filled with as many kicks as are ordinarily found in an entire serial. Mr. Cunningham got busy and for the first time in his screen career Mr, Holt was given a triangle love plot—one in which his own love balanced between two wom- en. India, the darkest and most mys- terious country of the world, offering a background of thrills, was chosen as the locale. Into the background of jungles and mystery the story was woven. The leading feminine players, Eva Novak and Aileen Pringle, gasped audibly when they saw what they were to do, but nevertheless swallowed their misgivings and came out alive and unscratched. The supporting cast is excellent. The vaudeville bill for the first half of the week will present four clever acts featuring the Shelvey Boys in an original dancing novelty; Trene and Florette are two charming girls who will offer a good singing and plano playing act; Jim Doherty, 8. A. P., {s a comedian of ability and a guaranteed laugh provoker; and Rose and Dell wil cloee this fine bill with a real good variety offering. The Sun- day night program will feature two fine photoplay features offering May MecAvoy in “Through a Glass Win- dow,” a romantie drama, that will de- light from start to finish; and an all star cast will portray the roles in “A Clouded Name,” the photoplay version of the popular novel. On Thursday of next week the Pal- eace will otter Lon Chaney, “the man of a thousand faces,” in his new pho- toplay hit “The Trap.” This is con- p and in it he portrays the greatest role of his entire career in the movies.
