HUSBAND'’S LOVE Adele Garrison' New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Surprise That Came 0 Trouble Madge Jf there had been a mirror sud- denly placed before my face when my neighber AMrs. “Petey” made h am sure it would h open-mouthed stare, with a jaw ridi- culously down-dropped It took me several seconds to com prehend that her request for Dicky's evening clothes meant that In some mysterious fashion she intended to get them pressed for me, and sev eral additional seconds elapsed hefore § could rid myself of the fear that Dicky's anger if he learned of my ac- ceptance of her aid, would be some- thing with which to reckon. His glimpses of our bizarre neighbors had been so displeasing to him ‘that 1 knew he would strongly resent my Pputting myself under the yoke of ever 80 elight an obligation to them 1 don’'t blame for opening your mouth like n fish,” Mra, Marks glggled gleetully at her own smile “You dign't expect to find tallor right in the next room you, Dearie?" I winced at the diminutive endear- ment—it is one of my strongest aver- you did slons—and stammered a foolish repe- | tition of her words, “A-a-tailor ! “'Burest thing you know,” came the cheery response, I worked nearly a year at it before I married and, believe me, that's some time in my young life to stick to one thing But 1 quit because | wanted to, not because I had to, you can bet your last cent on that! My boss offered me more money to stick when I told him 1 was going, but nething cook- ing, nothing at all. He sald 1 was the best presser he ever had, so you t need to fear I'll spoil your s things. “You Needn't Worry~——" ut you'd better let me get at ‘em,"” she declared. “There ain't any too much time before he gets home, and you naturally won't want to ‘let him know who's really done the job for you. 1 can tell he hasn't any a hub'| violets or roses in his mitt for me or | Petey—he don’t like us one little bit =but that's neither here nor there— T like you, fine—and you done me a g00d turn the other night that T won't forget in a hurry. 8o just rush out the clothes, and I'll" have 'em back safe and sound before he ever puts his key in the door.” _There was something so hypnotic in her smile and words — atrocious though her vocabulary was — that urged also by the absolute hopele ness of any other course for me. I half-mechanically turned to the chair where I had deposited Dicky's eve. ning clothes and gathered them up dispiritedly. She took them from me briskly and started down the hall, throwing a last reassurange over her shoulder: “You needn't Dearie. 1 always press Petey's and don’t he look like he just popped out of & handbox?" At the Mail Box “1 know they'll be splendid, thank you so much,” I forced myself to acknowledgment, although my heart had sunk at her, reference to her husband’s raiment. I had a vivid vision of the flamboyant apparel sported by Mr. “Petey” Marks upon the one occasion when he and his buxom spouse had favored us with a call. I knew nothing of the intri- cacies of pressing. Supposing Mrs, Marks should put in some embelli ments which would delight Petey'n sartorial taste, hut which would be #nathema to Dicky ! |There was nothing for me to do, however, save to wait and offer men- fal oblations to my particular little Joss that things would after all turn out all right—-the' Micawberish hopa to which we are often compelled to eling. . ‘With the determination te pug the Letter From Beatrice Grimshaw to Leslie Prescott. 1 wonder if you have seen the last “Plimland,” my dear? 1t has a very interesting story in it about that young woman called Paula Perrier, of whom I asked you in my last let- ter. B8he seems (o have made quite ‘& furore out in Hollywood. Dick writes me that the beauty, spirituality and intellect. seems quite taken with her talent. It is a queer kind of life that Dick has been nurled into out there, Les- Hle. From what he writes me I ecan #ee that everyone is living up to his last ounce of nervous energy. Dick's letters do not seem like Dick at all—my Dick, whom I have always thought was the very essence of calmness and contentment—I can gee he is getting all mixed up in_ his fdeas. His thoughts and conclusions are as jerky as the sentences in his letters. | Dick to wirl has| He Reep Johnson's Baby Powder athand torelieveit, You want yout baby to have the best.
