| Quicksands of Love Adele Garrison’s New Phase of Revelations of a Wife—— Ldllian and Madge Discuss the Masked Dancer “You thought Mary was the mask- ed dancer at the night club?" I re- | peated slowly, increduously. Yet, even as the words left my lips, I realized that th> same fanatic suspi- cion of Lilllan’s meaning had been in my mind since the night before, when, at her bidding, we had visited the young girl's room. Yes, and it's the first time in a coon age that one of my hunches has gone flooe; she replied. “Of course, I'm mighty glad I'm wrong but it makes me feel as if the old rean were slipping a cog.” Her voice was filied with genuine uneasiness and T saw that she was really shaken by the knowledge that ser intuition and deduction had proved to be at fault.

For years she has dreamed of going to Hollywood to try to break into pictures; and now, at 22, she firmly makes up her mind to risk everything and go. ™ The only drawback is that she has no money, for she is the soul of extravagance and always has spent every dollar she made. So she asks her widowed father to lend her five hundred dollars, but refuses to finance such a “wild-goose chase.” He and his sister, Miss Gertrude Ransom, an old mald, wha has mothered Bobbie all her life, wish the girl would settle down and marry Andrew Jerrold and behave herself. Bobble tells them both that if her father won't lend her the money to make possible her trip to Hollywood she will borrow iti from Andrew, or Andy, as she calls him. Aunt Gertrude is horrified, but nevertheless when Andy comes o0 the house to see Bobbie that night, she determines to ask him to let her take the money. Andy is a highly successful merchant of “ysed” automobiles. He drives up to the house in one of them at dusk, and Bobble asks him if he would like to stay home that night and talk instead of going out dane- ing as they had planned. NOW GO ON WITH THE STORY CHAPTER II for h Copyright, 19 l Teature Service, , by Newspaper Inc. Whitefoot Has a Visitor By Thomnton W. Burgess Diplomacy will win the day \When other methods wouldn't pay. —Whitefoot the Woodmouse Whitefoot the Woodmouse re- mained undisturbed in his new home for some time. He had quite forgot- ten the loss of his old home, which he had left through fear of Shadow the Weasel. This new home had verything that a comfortable, upto- date mouse home should have. There as plenty of room inside that old ump for all the exercise he need- ed. He really had no occasion to go outside. You see, as I have already told you, he found an ample store of pine seeds in there. They were v sweet and nice. Whitefoot fe that it was quite all right to take them, for he knew by their condi- tion that they had been there for a long time. Evidently so siored them up and had them; or else had not had need them. Of course, shut up in old stumy wouldn’t be like him to do th Timid as he is, Whitefoot is very ac- tive and dearly loves to play about. He likes the snow. and every pl ant night found him out and about Sometimes he g the day. It was always a chance he took, hut he used to excuse himself by s ing: “T ought to get my living day by day If T can and keep those supplics in the old stump for bad weather when T cannot get about. Yes, sir. that 18 what T ought to do.” Now this sounds like good com- mon sense, It would have been good common sense had it not heen t the supplies in that storchouse great enough to last Whitefoot the rest of the winter. However, most of us like a change of fare once in @ while, s0 perhaps Whitefoot was cusable for running the risk he al- aid run whenever he hunting for food One afternoon when Whitefoot re. turned from one of these trips he discovered a visitor.

The foundation for a sound nervous system should, of course, be laid In childhood, but Sen. McLean’s Chauffeur Not Blamed for Fatality (Bpecial to the Herald.) ‘Washington, D. &C., Jan. 24— Frank T. Passinl, chauffeur for Senator McLean of Conhecticut, has begn treed of criminal responsibility for the death of Alexander Brooks, aged 65, who died after being struck by the senator’s machine. The senator was not in the car when the fatality occurred Friday night at Dupont circle. Witnesses told the coroner at his inquest that Brooks stepped in front of the McLean car and the accident was unavoidable. Brooks died while being transported to an emergency hospital. Bystand- ers told the police Passini refused to take the injured man to the hos- continued assaults on the mental state will undermine the calm de- meanor of anyone. nagging him or a woman with a nervous and irritable personality can no more consider in good health than if they had infected tonsils, a cold in the head or bunions. Sometimes disorders of physical states will produce irrita- tions which make the threshold of nervous excitement far lower. Facing Situations It is particularly important to face every mental situation square- ly. It one gets into the habit of dodging the uncomfortable facts of life, mental ill health lies in wait just around the corner. Men and women should learn the habit of facing things as they really are and handle the situa- tions as they exist. The psychologists have dignified the process of avoiding reality by the term ‘“rationalization,” which means the seeking of plausible but basically false justification for some particular attitude on a cer- tain occasion. Above all things, persons should think with their intelligence in- stead of with their emotions. When one jumps at conclusions and forms prejudices without real knowledge, he is likely to have | distorted judgment. Day-Dreaming The person who tries to avoid the realities of life also resorts not infrequently to day-dreaming and fantasies. When one becomes aware of this temptation to compensate himself for the disappointments of daily life, he should take a walk, practice a daily dozen, hunt up a friend and argue about the League of Nations, or even listen to the radio. Indecd, anything should be done to divert attention from turning inward upon one's self.
