She had spill- ed the beans about Veritzen send- ing them to everybody, and she was | there when I telephoned vou." | Heroically I repressed the retort that I had been sure mnot only of | Edith's presence when he talked to | me, but of the fact that it was shrj who had egged him on to interfers | ence, and Dicky hurried on: “But | surely she didn't say anything to| Veritzen." | With malicious glee which 1 think any wife would understand I saw that the patent disgust which | betrayed itself even in his disclaim- | ec was directed against Edith. I| felt that I was lowering my own | standard by accusing her, but the | trick she had played made me ruth- | less. She had only herself to blame. T reminded myself, if I had to arm myself for warfare against her. Dicky Indignant “That, of course, I cannot say,” I| tried to make my voice quietly cas- | ual, “but unless you impersonated Edith over the telephone I am at a loss to know how Mr. Veritzen ac- quired the information which he later relayed to me and which was| the reason for the query concerning whose flowers 1 was wearing which you overheard.” What d've mean, impersonated | Ede?” Dicky growled. “Speak | United States, can’t you?" O, surely,” I said, enjoying my- self thoroughly, “Mr. Veritzen tele- phoned me, ing among other | things, that Edith had told him she | could save him the expense and | trouble of a bouquet for her, be- cause she also was wearing a green | gown, and that she could wear the | one he had planned for me. She| said that I was going to wear sand! and | color and that a ‘boy friend' was sending me flowers. I did not choose to have Mr. Veritzen keep that last impression, and I told him that you were the only man who sent me flowers, and that I would tell him | later what I meant to do.” | Dicky's eyes were fixed vpon my face as I talked, but by | the time I had finished a shame- faced look had crept into his eyes and his face and neck were crim- soned. steadily | THE FUR FLIES By Thornton W.

Certain of these were extremely bizarre, but others were based upon good sense and medicinal observa- tion. Pliny, the Roman physician, rec- ommended wolf's liver infused in wine, or the tips of the burnt horns of bullocks. On the other hand, others of the ancient physicians recommended rest, ocean voyages, good food, and sun bathing. One of the first truly effective and organized efforts to treat tubercu- losis was made in the 19th century when George Bodington opened his first tuberculosis sanatorium. One of the items strongly rec- ommended by Bodington was fresh air. He wurged the tuberculosis sufferer “to live and breathe freely [the open air, without being deter- red by the wind or weather.” Bodington's idea on the treat- ment of tuberculosis were so con- trary to those current that hissana- . and, by the irony of was reopened as an insane of America’s contributions to the development of the modern tuberculosis sanatorium was begun by Edward Livingston Trudeau. Dr. Trudeau himself was tuber- culous. When still in his early twenties, knowning that he suffered from tuberculosis, he left New York city for the Adirondacks. But Trudeau did not die an early death. On the contrary, he lived to a relatively old age. It was Trudeau and a host of other workers who demonstrated that tuberculosis in its early stages is a curable disease, and that cure depends prima on three items —adequate rest, adequate food, and fresh air.

H. Macy and Co.) bathroom. adds a silken luster to the the modern rugs and carpets isn't casy. There was a time when Tugs and carpets were just a background for the rest of the furniture. But now they are laying themselves out to attract some attention of their own. Small rugs, tering their charms everywhere. These scatter rugs, as they are called, are choosing soft. gay col- ors, whigh either match or con- trast the draperies of a room. Bedrooms are their most popu- lar setting. Modernistic designs which are carried through several shades of the same color, are be- ing used in oval rugs of rayon tex- ture. There is a sparkling lustre, and at the same time, a deep soft- ness, to such rugs which m-".kc7 them admirable for boudoir-use. Colors Are Varied Rayon stuff is made in fifty-two colors, meeting every possible color problem. Most prominent among the bedroom colors are roses, greens, amethyst. blues and a black-and-white combination. One favorite design, which is done in varying shades of green, has a leaf pattern, whicH {is clear- cut and distinctive. This same effect is carried out in other col- ors, also. Many of the rayon rugs have matching shower curtains and bath mats, which help preserve the spirit of harmony. The oblong shape is the favorite for bedrooms at present. Several are used in the same room. When a room contains twin beds fre- quently a rug is used at the side of each bed, and one is placed be- tween them. In.front of the dress- ing table is another popular place for such a rug. " Chenille is tremendously popu- lar in the oval rugs, too. And there is a tufted effect which shows flowers in relief, that |is havinge its innings. Contrasting Weaves Effective Mohair with a plain border of the same color, relying on the con- trast in weave instead of color for its decorative effect, is another of the new offerings. Chenille rugs are presented. too, in four shades of the same color. ‘Wash rugs for nurseries are among the mpst useful and color- ful of modern floor coverings. Some are cotton. Boats go sailing on blue seas, menageries hold cir- cuses, and Mother Goose charac- ters romp across the rug surfaces. One rug, which children particu- larly adore, has an owl seated on a limb of a tree, and another favor- ite shows an elephant perched on the moon. The same modern blending of colors, and rather square effect of design which is so noticeable in adult rugs is featured in the chil- dren’s department. The modernistic spirit of the scatter rugs has crept into the full size rugs and carpets. Large plaids, gay as the proverbial steamer blankets, lend a warm tene to a living room that follows a gay informality. These rugs are made by the peasants and farm women of Canada, each one creat- ing and using her own design. Something of the coziness of their lamplit rooms where they work on the long crept into the warm red brown and yellow tones they favor in this work. Breakfast nooks and colonial living rooms frequently are shown with such floor coverings. Another group of rugs, equally appropriate for living rooms and bedrooms, is being made by cer- tain European mountain peasants who are weaving their tribal cesigns into their decorative schemes. Here again gay colors, softened to avoid any flamboy- ancy, which is entirely out of keeping with the new used.

While * the old flower arrange- ment that used to turn the living room floor into a hellyhock or rese garden is still included in the carpet.-and rug designs, ther® has been a considerable less blooming in such flower plots.

Talks o %parfi% A LEARNED FEAR By Alice Judson Peale Vera, as a grown woman, is des- perately afraid of snakes. She remembers exactly how she acquired that fear. While yet very little she used to take great delight in little green garden snakes. She liked even the big gopher snakes that she sometimes saw on long country walks with her father. She heard a rattler once in passing and, warned by her father to keep a respectful distance, had continued her walk with him without undue apprehension. into the will be designer's name in a place whers it are follow- ef- One day, however? when Vera was eleven, a visitor noticed upon the cover of a nature magazine a large and realistic picture of a rat. tler coiled in the position for strik. ing. It reminded the lady of a recent territying experience. She “had been walking with a friend along a hot, dusty road. Suddenly at their feet they heard the ominous dry rattle. Her friend jumped too late. There followed a vivid deacrip- tion of the agony, the suspense and the narrow escape from death. Vera, listening, felt chills of horror mounting her spine. A few days later when she was going out in the back yard to light the rubbish, a coiled rattler stared at her from the ground. The next instant she knew that it was only the corn cover of the nature maga- zine that _had fallen out of the in« cinerator. Nevertheless she ran screaming into the house and from that day to this she had pad a fear of all snakes. The story illustrates one very definite way in which children ac- quire fear—that is, through experi~ encing fear vicarously through some adult's account o fa territying experience.
