MY HUSBAND’S LOVE Adele Garrison’s New Phade of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE For a Time Dr. Braithwaite Forgot “They've changed the management here,” Dicky said as he led the way into the restaurant while Harriet and Edwin followed with me. “I don't know the new people, but they tell me it's quite amusing, and the food is good—will be for a week or two,” cynically. “It's always a safe bet to follow the trail of a new broom,” his broth- er-in-law commented, and then we found ourselves in a brilliantly lighted and strikingly decorated room with small tables surrounding an open space, where, early as it was, a few people were dancing. ‘A man whose manner conveyed the mixture of in- gratiating deference and monarchical authority possessed only by head- waiters and department store walkers advanced toward us, and I saw his small eyes flicker rapidly, appraisingly over our party. “A table for four,” said Dicky, when he and Edwin had appeased an importunate boy with the delivery of their hats, *coats and sticks, “where we can see well, but not too near the center of things.” The man bowed with the ready acquiescence which Dicky manages to elicit from his ely. *“Ah! yes, I have exaetly what Monsieur wishes, the view without the so much contact. This way, please.” He led us to a table which indeed was in an ideal location for our wishes —but Dicky hesitated for several sec- onds Qefore saying with a touch of loftiness: “Thig will do please.” The Tdeal Py he 1 slipped the man & generous tip [ knew by the pro foundly respectful gesture and prompt retreat of the table In his place there immediately ap- peared a waiter with menus and an order blank, while an omnibus went through the motions of his craft a few feet away.

That Dicky eould be wisely thoughtful beneath his foolery 1 well knew, and I was not surprised at his dinner order, which, while it would have been approved by an epicure, held none of the dishes that from Harriet's lips Dicky and I had learned were taboo to win's diges- tive peace, apes to the speelal cheese which was to come with the coffer, the dinner promised to be a stronomie tri® umph, and when he had finished the | order, we applauded him with softly | clapping hands.

At any rate she surprised me by the vivacity which embroidered her dig- | nity as might jewel= upon velvet, and by the apparent zest with which she entered Into the gayety of the evening, talking wittily, laughing appreciative- iy her stately dancing movements with a touch of modern extravaganoe. “I baven't had so good a time years,” she said, as the coffee served. Dicky had ordered the din- ner in courses separated by intervals of a half hour or longer that we might have leisure for dancing. Her husband looked at her with approving eyes. Letter From Richard Summers RBeatrice Grimshaw. My Dear Beatrice: 1 didn't answer your letter imme- liately because well about it before writing. It was very strange; indeed, a very aggravating kind of a letter. I might say a very nagging kind of a letter. 1 did not want te write you 1 had gotten over being angry about it. Do you know, Bee, 1 never until I read that letter had detected a nag- ging spirit in you. In this respect 1 thought you were different from other women. I thought you would not im- | pute motives to me that were furthest from my thoughts. 1 wonder why it is, my, dear Bee that a short separation ean change the viewpoint of one or both those separated as greatly as yours and mine secm to have been changed. Evidently for you, absengg has mnot made the heart grow fonder. 1 remember thinking back there in the east that you had such a placidly sweet disposition. 1 that 1 could aiw rest secure in your quiet regard, and now all at once 1 find that you are something entirely different. 1 find 1 do not know you at all, Bee Is it possible that you are jealous of Miss Perier?

For I knew from Harriet's re- morseful confidence to me what it was that he wanted and now never gould have—the companionship of children of his own. Dicky tSe By Dr. Clifford C.
