MY HUSBAND’S LGVE [ISewingCollar toNeck Edge RevealsSkill , DAILY FASHION SENVICR Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Astonishing Offer Mrs, Marks Made Madge Dicky often teasingly tells me that 1 strongly resemble the Rritish sol. dier who never knows when he Is licked, But 1 accepted defeat unque tioningly at the hands of the little tallor to whom 1 had brought my husband's evening clothes for press ing an hoyr later than the time the man had agreed to do the work, True, T went through the usuml formula to satisfy my conscience that 1 had done everything possible to-ac- complish Dicky's errand, 1 pleaded my bad train connections and the traffic jam, and offered to double his price if he only would do the work, But I knew well when T began a8 when I finished that I might well have saved my breath, for I recog- nized his type, An efticlent workman, D he prided himself upon being ab.

He turned his back on me Inso- lently with his final negative, and fairly trembling between anger at him and fear that I would fall Dicky, 1 hurried out of the shop. Madge Is Worried, If it had been an ordinary oe- caslon, an affair for pleasure only to which Dicky was bidden, 1 would not have been 8o concerned al- though of course, I would have put forth every effort to arrange things for him. But after his frantic sum- mons of me over the telephone when He returned to the apartment had realized that the affair to which he was going was one that I mis- takenly had thought was to take place the week following. . It was a banquet to a famous Eng- lish illustrator, and Dicky was to make one of his after-dinner speeches, It was unthinkable that because of my mistake, innocent though it:was, he might be compelled to stay at home, for I knew that fastidious Dicky would never appear at the function unless correctly arrayed in his own clothes. “Excuse Me, Dearie.” Where could I find another tailor? This was ‘my first thought. Then, remembering Dicky's tirade against a man who almost had ruined his clothes upon one occasion. I hesi- tated, fearing to make matters worse by taking them to any shop whose work I did fot know. Besides. I had no time to wander around, hunt- ing tailor shops of whose location I had no idea. With the vague plan of hunting frantically through the telephone classified advertisement book, and then rushing by taxi to the ghop, if T should be fortunate enough to find a man consenting to do the work. I hurried back to the apart- ment. I had telephoned three different shops, only to be met with refusals more or less courteous, and with a despairing glance at my watch, was esgsaying the fourth, when an im- perative knock sounded on my door. With an impatient exclamation, I hung up the receiver, and hurrying to the door, threw it open.

She was of French descent, and while she was vivacious and smiling, she had a trick of looking very pensive and sad when she thought no one was observing her.
