In almost any other woman, her| ittle ways would be silly, but in| her they are adorable, and not Onf‘i of those who love her would have her | changed in the slightest particular. Dicky rose gravely, adjusted his| tle and held out his hand to her. | “My hat and coat, Madge,” he threw over his shoulder to me. Then in the same casual tone, he addressed her. “Have you any particular place you'd like to alight first—Coney Island or the Woolworth building, or the Metropolitan museum? Or would you prefer Niagara Falls? And are you sure you have sufficient wraps? It's quite brisk outside.” A Diplomatic Get-Away She struek his hand smartly with the stick of her lorgnette. “I thought you knew me better than that,” she pouted. “I may be| anclent, but do I look like the ning- teenth century? Niagara Falls, for- sooth ! Nothing doing! You'll take me to Havana or the Bermudas— o “I get you,” Dicky interrupted, “and I grect you as a true soul mate. I'm dying for & good drink myself.” “I can endure this no longer,” I gave a realistic little shudder and made my voice heavily mournful. “She mot only entices my husband away, but she plans to make a crim- fnal and a drunkard of him, Take me away, Katherine, somewhere, anywhere, but AWAY Katherine was quick to catch my cue, I wanted to see her alone, but had not known just how to manage it. The little farce which Dicky and Mrs. Durkee were staging and which the Iittle woman, at least was intense- 1y enjoying, gave mo just the oppor- tunity I wanted. | “Come to my room, you poor wounded dove,” Katherine sald, with & gay little laugh, “I'll take care of you." “And I'll try to appeal to t Lella sald as we left the room. I'm afraid they'ro hopeless.” | We closed the door upon Mrs. Durkee's giggle and Dicky's deep laugh, and Katherine squeezed my arm, “A Good Nurse—" “I thought you'd snatch at that opportunity,” she said. "“I'm dying to talk to you, and my patient will be happy now until we get back.

I think I have told you the maxim that was ground into me at training school.” “A good nurse never diagnoses “Exactly,” she returned, “but I don't mind telling you that Dr. Draithwaite was very optimistic con- cerning her when he last saw her, and I'm willing to bank upon his opinlon. | It isn't that possibility which is wor- rying me about her.” Gossip’s Corner Fruit Cocktails A scasonable fruit cocktall is made by arranging In a glass sections of | pineapple and strawberries cut into halves sprinkled ‘with powdered su- gar.

WAR MOTHERS PROTESTING CARNATION SALE MAY 10 | Object Strenuously to Commercializa- tion of Their Names By Any Tag Day Plans Washington, May 3.—Officers of the American war mothers have fissued epirited protests against the published attack by the Mothers' Day interna- tional association on their plan pub- licly to sell carnation, bilttonnieres on Baturday, May 10, in a nation-wide observance of Mothers' Day, which falls on the Bunday following. 1 just couldn’t understand what my | vious to her husband.

A postponement of the entertalnment may be decided upon as a result of the accident. TASTES ARE CHANGING Plays Instead of Impersonators and Opera in Place of Jazz Are De. ! mands of the Public, Chicago, May 3.—No more magic, no more jubileé singers, plays instead of impersonators; less jazz—more grand opera, and lectures with a pur- pose by men who have achieved, are demands which indicate changes in the tastes of the American public, ac- cording to the Lyceum and Chau- tauqua Managers' association, in con- vention here. Before actually entering a draw- |ing room, pause to see where the | hostess is. Then walk over to her {and pay your respects. e ' “We haven’t had a call for a ‘hu- morist’ in five years," said one man- ager. “The public wants humor, but there must be something more—a re- { ligious or educational value, though it can't be labelled as such. And the old fashioned orator is gone t0o.” More than 15,000 towns in the United States have a winter lyceum | course, and over 5,000 have the Chau- | tauqua clreuit in summer. ———— Advice He—J haa an awful shock when 1 locked at my cash book today. 1 find our car has cost us 2,000 krener in a nt:;‘e—Thare 1 T always advised you not to keep a cash book. — Kasper (Stockkolm.)
