MY RUSBAND'S LOVE . Adele Garrison’ New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Extraordinary Story That Jim Confided to Madge Katherine is too polsed to express astonishment by so much as the lift- ing of an eyelash, but I guessed that she was surprised to have me trans- fer Junior to her summarily, I put him into her arms murmured: “He'll get that hot milk down bet- ter if I am not here.” Then before Mother Graham could get her breath to expostulate, as I well knew she was ready to do on general principles. I went out into the hall, passing Jim with the most perfunctory nod possible. Yet when I reached the kitchen, I found that he was close behind me. “Are you in an awful hurry, Mrs. Graham?" he asked anxiously. “Indeed, no, Jim,” I replied. “In- stead, I came out here because I thought you wanted to speak to me. | Am I right?” [ Jim looked at me with wide won- dering eyes. “How did you know, ma'am asked. “I ~ didn't know, Jim, I only guessed,” I sald deprecatingly, “but,” with a wary glance at the hall be- hind me down which 1 expected Mother Graham to walk at any min- ute, “tell me as fast as you can.” “It won't take long,” Jim said. *When you left the barn, and I knew | you were safe in the house, I whipped H round the side and crawled through the bushes on my hands and knees—" “I Got Up Close.” “Crawled?” I echoed admiringly. “All that way?"” The swarthy color of Jim's honest face deepened into a brick red. “I got used to that over there, Ma'am,” he said simply. “This was nothing,” and 1 stood silenced and abashed, as 1 always do when I am accorded a brief reminiscent vision of the things our soldiers underwent in that awful struggle. “I got up close to him without his knowin' it,” Jim went on, “and I soon see where he was headin’ for—that wood road that used to end in this farm, but thit nobody haint used in years and year. There ain’t but mighty few people know about it, but I guess he's one of 'em, or else he'd heen told, where to make for by somebody who did know this action pretty well. He paused for the perceptible frac- tion of a second, and looked at me oddly. I felt my heart beating fas- ter, at the anticipation of some queer revelation which should concern me, but I let no hint of my trepidation escape me. N Memory Stirs to Life “At any rate"—Jim took up his story again—"he didn't hear me till I was right on top of him, and it was too late for him to make any gun play. 1. fell on him, and had him dead to rights, for as long as I stayed right where 1 was, T could keep him from moving."” He took a fresh breath while T again flashed a swift glance down the hall behind me, hoping that my moth- er-in-law would remain in the living room until Jim had finished his story. “The only trouble was, Jim re- gumed, “that while I had him, he had me, too,«for he was a powerful fel- low, and I never could have managed him if T hadn’t got him down before he knowed it. I didn't dare move off him, so I jest'sat there, hollerin’ once ! in a while in hopes somebody would | hear me. “And then,” Jim's voice uncon- Bciously bgtrayed the disappointment that was his, “somebody grabbed me from behind and fairly lifted me off the other man. I tried to twist to see what kind of man the new fellow was, but he was a regular Jess Wil- lard for size and strength, and he held he as if I'd been a boy. And then, ma'am you could have knocked me over with'a feather when he laughed, and he said in such a queer funny voice: | “Why, if it isn't dear old Jim, the one who gave our precious Katie the | handle to her name. This will never do, Jim. We can't have you inter- with a | he | ipes may appeal. [into sterilized glasses and cover with | fifteen minutes longer. | seed should be crushed. fering with our plans like this, much as we cherish you.'" Now Jim is probably the most un- skillful mimie in the world, and yet there was something in his voice ar he tried to imitate the volce of the man who had seized him, which brought vividly to my mind a bizarre and colorful masculine figure, who had been a factor in some of the most tempestuous episode of my life, BY SISTER MARY GOOSEBERRIES It you like gooseberries these ree- And if you don't know how delicious spiced and jelied and jammed gooseberries are with winter meats try these rules and be convinced, Spiced Gooseberries Three quarts gooseberries, 4 pounds of sugar, 2 cups of vyinegar 1 tablespoon of cinnamon, teaspoons of cloves, 2 teaspoons of allspice.

As it was you let me go on for a long time feeling quite hurt because she had not written me. Now I am filled with remorse that I could have thought for a moment that my darling sister would have neglected me when I was so far away Howver, I think had I received a cablegram, 1 should have taken the pext boai home. It sickens me ey ery time I think of the good times I have been having while all the time she has been so il I want you to tell Leslie that I knew nothing about her accident and that if she wants me or if she thinks that 1 can do her the least bit of good I will come home immediately. Poor girl! 1 believe 1 would die had I been expecting such a wonder- ful cvent in my life as a baby and then had to bear the disappointment of losing it before it had ever been laid in my arms. Karl was awfully sweet in telling me all about it. We are &till talking about you all. He said that you let him go in and look Lesiie for a moment while she was asleep, &0 that he could even tell me just how she looked. He told me, she was “just iike a Madonna who had been deprived of her only child by Death.” He told me that Jack was thinking of adopting a child. I think this would be a lovely thing. Let me know as soon as you decide which ‘way it is going to be and if you de-| | | cide upon adoption, don't christen | him until I come home. I want ,to be godmother. ! Poor Leslie! I haven't been able to get her out of my mind all day. This| being married, mother, isn't such a! cinch after all, is it? Somehow up until now 1 have al-| ways considered marriage a kind of glorified courtship under the sanc- | tion of the church, but now I see| there are a great many responsibili- | ties and cares connected with it. Karl told me that you thought he had better bring those pearl beads of Leslie's over here, but he dis- suaded you from it. I wish you had let him bring them. 1 think they would go awfully well with my new pearl ring. The ring of course is real, but ev- eryone says that the beads are such a wonderful imitation that I'm sure they couldn’t be told apart. In one of her letters Leslie inti- mated that she was going to break the string in two and give part of it to Beatrice Grimshaw for a wedding present You may tell her that I will never forgive her if she does a thing like that. 1 wrote and told her how hurt I would be if she did, but I want you to clinch the argument I didin’t know that I would be_as glad to see anyone as I was to see Karl. I wouldn't marry an English- man {f he were the Duke of West- minster or the Prince of Wales him- self, Please cable me exactly how Leslie is Could she read a letter if I should write it to her? I love you all so much, ALICE. | tapestry or embroidered silk or velvet is much more popular at the present moment than the sweater jacket. beaver are worn on the fall top coat of camel's hair or plaid wool. those with the square mesh are par- turbans. ing to choker of larger heads is also worn. more sanitary as an instrument for testing cakes or fruits than a broom- splint. you do not keep on display in cotton X WOULDST B | Gossip’s Corner Short Jacket The short jacket of kasha cloth, Beaver Collars Very handsome but small collars of Close Veils Close veils are,being worn again, ticularly popular.

HOW’S YOUR- HEART? The engine of a great ocean liner gets a'rest after driving the ship 4,000 miles across the ocean, The human heart, a more wonderful en- gine, never gets a rest until it stops for good. Its weight is only about three-quarters of a pound. Day after day and year after year it: throbs away at the average speed of 72 beats a minute, It drives the bload throughout the body to repair waste and build new tissues. If an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, what can we do to prevent this wonderful little engine from getting out of order? Medical science knows more about the heart today, and the means of combatyng its diseases, so there is always hope for you, if your heart has gone wrong. The layman must take heed and learn to know the precautionary preventive means to apply when the first distress signals appear. The heart is strong in recuperative power so take courage if you find your heart is a little out of Kilter. Ll Health Is Priceless The most trivial defects should be checkéd up at once. Kxamination by a physician once or twice a year is not too great a price to pay for priceless health. To wait until you have to reform or live the hygienic life is like a drowning man grasping at straws. Early heart defects may have been caused by the toxins of scarlet fever, diphtheria, pneumonia or acute rheu- matism, which is frequently a chil- dren’s disease and a heart disturber. Be careful of your children and guard against al diseases of the nose and the throat. A healthy throat will go a long way toward staving off any be- ginning heart murmurs or endocar- ditis. Sometimes weak heart has been caused by early athletic excesses, when the heart has been severely overtaxed and its muscles stretched. This may mean leaky heart and the end of athleticsa for the patient. At the period of puberty, both boys and girls are liable to have some increased arterial tension and heart action. If fathers and mothers are sensible, and correct hygienic laws are explained to them, serious heart and blood troubles may bé avoided in later years. Sanitation Necessary Do not under any circumstances wear the same clothing at night as you have during the day. This habit, if kept up, may cause poisons which have been thrown off by the pores of the skin to be reabsorbed by the blood and injure the heart action. This may apply to country people more than to city folks. It may be good heart advice to say that in the coun- try or on the farm a bath tub is just as important as a telephone and per- haps more so. Overindulgence in “eats,” especially heavy meals at night, or continued high living are responsible for about Y -T MORE TALES OF CUF BY, ARTHUR MR. BEAR CATCHES SOMETHING | AT LAST. Mrs. Bear had madg it very plain to Mr. Bear that he fnust let little Silkie keep the fish she had caught. He scolded as he turned away.

I'm not going to bother with anything less than a yard long,” he announced. . She knew better than to urge him. | She only hoped, as she sat and ate her fish, that Mr. Bear would soon catch an enormous fish. She could think of nothing else that would make him feel cheerful again that day. “Ah-h-h!" exclaimed Mr. Bear all at once. “There's a whale of a fish! I've got my eye on him. I think he's coming this way.” A moment later Mr, Bear dashed into the water. A terrific splash fol- lowed. Then he rose up out of the lake. Waving his paws frantically, he struggied toward the shore. “Ugh! Ugh! A snake! A snake!" he bellowed. His frightened family saw a long, dark object writhing about Mr. Bear's neck. “Get 1t off me!

Duesseldorf, Aug. 6.—Since the ex- plosion of a hand grenade here Sat- urday which wounded two members of a French troop on march, similar incidents have occurred in various parts of the Ruhr, giving rise to the fear that a recrudence of violence against the authorities ‘ occupation had been begun. A bomb was found in fuse attached, outside the Building oc- cupied by the coal syndicate. A Ger- man, Johann Dolbowsky, was arrested in connection with the discovery. Near the station of Essen West, a tomb was exploded. It did little damage. A package of explosives was found in Dortmund near the wall of a house occupied by a colonel of the 47th French regiment, and another pack- age was discovered in the garden of the house in which the general com- manding in Dortmund lives. Close to the station at Muelheim, near Essen, a hand grenade was flung at a French sentinel. He was unhurt. An attempt was made to sabotage a French balloon at Altenessen. The culprit was arrested.
