MY HUSBAND 'S LOVE | [ 2w e v e Adele Garrison’'s New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Decision Madge Felt Forced t0 Make Mechanically I took up the letters and post eard which Dicky had thrown into my lap with so sudden a display of temper. 1 knew without looking at the card what had aroused his anger, The contempiuous ap- pellation, “Faithful Fido !" which he Liad just uttered, told me that the post card was from Hugh Grantland, 1 was hotly angry at the sneer, but 1 was determined to let no hint of my wrath appear, and 1 was therefore doubly glad when the taxi-horn ;aundcd imperatively in the street be- | ow, “There's your taxi,” The perfunc- tory words came from my lips un- consclously, "Dieky scowled blackly at me as he flung himself toward the door, “I'm still capable of hearing a taxi<horn,” he snapped, as he swung open the door, The next instant he had closed it with & bang which I knew must have resounded through the whole bulld- Ing, and the sound of his feet rap- idly descending the stairs registered continued wrath, . It was not until the sound of the clolin[ strest door reverberated through the house, thut I brought my mind back to the letters I held, With the curlous instinct which makes one save the most important things until the last, I opened the envelope which Dicky had designated as some ‘‘club thing,” and found the announcement of a lecture for which I cared nothing. I ecrampled the thing and threw it into ;the waste basket with an ir- ritation out of all proportion to my annoyance: “Here For Two Weeks." A look at the remaining letter verified Dicky's comment that it had come from Lillian, and 1 laid it to one side for careful reading which I always give the letters of the woman who holds the highest place in my friendship and devotion. Then I took up the post card with a nervousness which I explained to myself as the result’ of Dicky's rude comment, 1t was dated five days before, but I | could riot decipher the name of the . place from which it had been sent. However, it was legibly written on the card, with the words, “Here for | Then came the initials two ‘weeks.” I remembered so well, that was all. Liftle enough, it would seem,. to arouse such anger in Dicky. But I knew that it was not to this particu- lar post card which had aroused his wrath, but the fact that for years Hugh Grantland bad kept me in- formed of his whereabouts, so that “H. G.” and I had only to wire him if at any time T needed him. . Madge Realizes Her' Problem That Dicky would make no further comment on the post:-card I knew. The remembrance of Hugh Grant- land’s dramatic restoration of Junior after his kidnapping by Grace Draper was too fresh in his memory and gratitude. But the sneering little cegnomen which-he had once prom- ised ' never again to apply to Hugh Grantland, showed me that his jeal- ous anger agaihst the brilliant army officer had. never died, but was smoldering close beneath the surface of his emotions, ready at any instant to break into flames. I held the post card closer to my eyes, and scrutinized it thoughtfully. Ought I not to write to Hugh,Grant- land and ask him to discontinue the cards which for years he had sent whenever he changed his address, so that I should always know where he could be reached in case of need? It would mean hurting him un- deservedly I knew. I could not help knowing that he cared for me with an affection as deep as it was hope- less, but I also knew that never by word or deed would he even attempt to lessen my love for my husband. :Pid I owe such a sacrifice to Dicky? 1 was honest enough to own to myeelf that it would be that for me. to sever aitogether the ties -of Extract From the Albany Evening Sun, BROKER RUNS AWAY WITH ACTRESS.

Ellington has been flying high for a number of months and there were many surmises and prophecies as to his finish. It was well known that Ellington was buying Lackawanna Steel in large blocks for his clients and yes- terday, when the stock reached the well known him was highest point it has in years, a num- | ber of his patrons telephoned and telegraphed him to sell.

The scientist and physician are pretty good guides to follow in all matters pertaining to normal health, and what to use to the best advantage as real body bullding and sustaining foods. For instance, there is the going without breakfast hobby. It may be, as has been stated in this column, that thousands of people eat too much, but a nourishing breakfast is a sure cure for a grouch and a neces- sary meal for those who toil and spin.

If Cuffy Bear hadn't been shut up in his cage he would have set out at once to find the cow that had. just joined the curcus.

Cuffy Bear couldn’t understand it. Tied to the fence at one end of the circus lot, the red cow stood as still though he has a beautiful wife, he has been seen at all the best restaur- ants and hotels lately with a minor | moving picture actress called Edith Chapman. It is learned that he was aiso a large holder of stocks that have steadily been dropping for a month.
