Love’s Awakening By Adele Madge and Dicky Begin an Open | Quarrel Over the Former's Career Dicky's knock upon my door af-| fected me curiously. While 1 had been waiting for his arrival, I had | been foolishly tremulous and fearful of the unpleasant moments which 1 knew were in store for me. Bu the sound of his impaticnt rapping ! was like a heady tonic to my nerves, | and as I went to the door and threw it open, I felt poised, confldent, strong. I even managed a gay little laugh as I met his dour glance. “Dear me, Dicky.” 1 exclaimed. “Has your bank failed, or your favorite editor been fired? You mok‘ like a pall bearer.” | “Oh, can the comedy!" my hus-| band snapped. “That alleged hu- mor of yours isn't ever very funny and it's especially flat today. 1'm in no meod for joking. I'm here to find out if you've coms to your senses yet, or are still cherishing such a yen for vour job with old| Veritzen that vou're willing to pass np evervbody even your own child, for your ‘carcer’ i Lilllan once said of Dicky that he never knew anyone who had so great a power of “raising blisters” with his words and tones. I thought of her comment not for the first| time, as 1 listened to his question so ! charged with venom that the little speech lost the effectiveness which it otherwise might have had For I knew that he did not mean what he was saying, or even realize | how atrocious was the slur, which he ! had uttered for the sccond time this day. From the experience of years | T guessed that he had come back | from his tramp in & tractable mood. | ready to acquiesce in my plan to continue my work in the city during the winter, coming to the farmhouse only on week-ends and leaving| Junior in Katherine's competent | care. But the sight of Phll\p‘ Veritzen seated close to me in| Junior's room, engaged in manipu lating the expensive toys my employ- er had hrought for our small son, | had again set Dicky's always com- | bustible temper in a blaze. Whitey Has a Pleasant Surprise. By Thornton W. Burgess. Fear turns to joy when least expect- ed, Or e'en its prezence Is suspected —Mrs, Peter Rabl ey, the little white son of Peter Rabbit, had felt so elated over his own smartness in staining his white coat with mud, that it was| doubly hard for him now when he realized it had all been in vain. You see, & heavy shower had washed his coat as white as it had ever been. Moreover, Whitetail the Marsh Hawk had almost at once discover- | ed him in that bramble-tangle. So poor little Whitey felt all his cour- age oozing right out of his toe: l[l‘i just didn't dare move. You see, he | was no better eff at night than in | the daytime. That white coat was bound to make him casily seen at eny time of day or night. “Oh dear:” thought Whitey, *I wish I had done what Mother want- ¢d me to do, and stayed in the dear | O14 Briar-patch. I don't see what I | was given a white coat for anyway. What shall I do now?

His jealousy T could forgive. Wom- en are made that way. But the thing that lay Ceeper than jealousy, assumption that because I was his wife he could direct the course of my life in any way he planned— this was something for which I could net find any parden in my heart. But with the unerring feline in. stinet for an opponent’s weakness which women possess, 1 knew that the surest way of getting even with Dicky was to present an unruffled exterior to his anger, and I swept him a mocking little bow as he flung the word ‘career’ at me. Then T forward a chair for him with claborate courte: “Do sit down, arine ton Dicky,” 1 =aid in calculated to rouse' in the breast of any man. “and calm yourself. You really are dreadfully excited.” He snatched the chair from my hand and sent it spinning against the couch nearby, while he glared me wordlessly as though my audacity had deprived him of speech. But 1 went on talking as smoothly |as though we were having the most |amicable discussion possible. “Don’t you think you are over. importance of this question?” I queried. “I think it 18 rather absurd to speak of my em- barking upon a ‘career’ I simply |am deciding to continue work which 1 contracted to do and to which you agreed. 1 am afraid that T must refuse to consider your objections, and especially must T decline to have vou turn over the decision of my personal affairs to Edith Falrfax.

MORRIS FISHBEIN Chiggers, chigo, or sand flies about this time of the year become a nuisance. The chigger i8 like a common flea, except that its nose is longer. The female burrows into the skin to provide a resting place for her- self during the time she lays her eg! Chiggers usually attack the toes and feet; sometimes the point of attack becomes secondarily infect- ed with ulcers and the formation of infected matter. Not all of the trouble from a chigger arises, however, from the burrowing into the skin. It is capa- ble also of biting and depositing & small amount of peison which will cause a lot of discomfort and per- sistent itching. Checking Chiggers The United States Department of Agriculture indicates that the pres- ence of chiggers can be checked by clearing away underbrush, vines and weeds, by keeping grass cut close, and by applying flowers of sulphur or sulphur powder over the area in which the chiggers breed. Five or ten pounds of sulphur | ttered over an ordinary city lot | will take care of most of them, Chiggers not only attack human beings, but alse are troublesome on voung chicks and turkeys. If the chicks have been heavily attacked, they may die from their trouble. High-Top Shoes When human beings go finto places where chiggers preva- lent, the Bureau of Entomology recommends that they wear high- top shoes over the trousers or leather leggings, perhaps also dust- ing the skin with sulphur powder. The best mcthod of care after a chigger bite is washing with a strong soap. If the female has pene- trated the skin, she may be re- moved with the aid of a blupt needle, and the little wound cov- ered with tincture of jodine or mer- curochrome. | Paris, July 11.
