A Wife's C Adele Garrison's New Phase o REVELATIONS OF A WIFE Lee Chow Directs the Searching | the door of the sedan and taking up Party “Mlsses Graham please sit in front seat.” Leo Chow's voice spoke, calmly authoritive, as with Jim bearing Junlor sound asleep in his arms, I came from the kitchen door toward the sedan belonging to the Chinese which was to convey us upon our Journey in search of Hugh ant- land. It was only three o'clock in the morning, but a wonderful late moon illuminated the yard, and by its light Lee Chow had been groom- ing his beloved car ever since mid- night. It had been found by the &ide of a road near the rallroad sta- tion in Greenport, where Fanny Powell had abandoned it. No ap- preclable damage had been done to it, but Lee Chow fussed far more over a slightly bent fender, and scratehes upon the car's body than he had done over his own injuries &% the hands of the woman who had been our involuntary guest. “But I can't hold Junior comfort- ably in that front seat,” I began. | “LAl' boss man no sleep so good | If somebody hold him,” he said im- | perturbably. “Sedan big car, plenty room in back, for NI’ boss mar sleep, See all luggage on side.” I followed his pointing finger and #aw that suitcases, bags and our | motor lunch kit had been so0 In- | geniously arranged in the luggage | carrier that we would not need to| carry a single article save our hand | bags in the inside of the car. | A black waterproof covering lay ready to strap down neatly over them.

Lee Chow will fix,” th Chinese went on. Giving my arm a | rurreptitious squeeze, Lillian climbed Into the car, followed by Marion, | and they tucked themselves into the corners confortably. “I warn you, Madge, I'm going to sleep straight through to the| mountains.'” Lilllan laughed as she eeftled her head against the cush- ion Lee Chow had provided. “I'm broadcasting the fact that this is my time for going to sleep, not for getting up.
