Love’s Reawakening The Story of a Wife’s Triumph Over Jealousy By ADELE ‘With Decorations in Place and Most Everything in Readiness for the Party, Madge, with Happy Heart, Awaits the Zero Hour. I puzzled over Dicky's promise all the rest of the afternoon, when I was not too busy to think of any- thing save the task of decorating the dining room of the hotel for Mary's party. He had said that he knew of a way Veritzen's mind of the notion that I preferred his flowers to Dicky's, be- cause 1 chose to wear them, but I could not see how he would manage it without enraging my employer. So happy was I, however, over the outcome of my talk with Dicky, that the question of Mr. Veritzen's possible anger would not have trou- bled me at all, if the thought of its possible reaction against Noel and Mary had not been persistent 1 had expected a most unhappy quar- ter of am hour with my husband, with the possibility of having to anger thy employer by refusing the corsage of flowers which he was of- ¥Yering to me as well to all the wom- en guests at Mary's party. Dicky had proved unusually tractable, and though I shrewdly suspectéd that 1 irt of his complaisance was be- cause of Edith’s outre action, vet I was so relieved at his willnginess to have me wear Mr. Veritzen's flow- ers, that I had no desire to cavil at anything. Surprisingly, Dicky made no com- ment upon the lavishness of the flowérs my employer had sent for the decoration of the impravised ballroom, and, throwing himself in- to the spirit of the thing as if he had planned it from the first, he took charge of the florist's man who | had brought the palms and potted plants which I had ordered, while | I arranged clusters of cut flowers in the different vases. I set aside my own plans, and scrupulously de- ferred to the frequent hints Dicky gave me as he wandered around the room, planning every detail of dec- oration with the zest which he brings to every task thatappeals to | the artistic side of his nature. Purnell Crestfallen At last everything and Purnell had removed every bit of the debris, and was lightly brushing the floors.

But it was a crestfallen Pur- nell who returned and, without fur- ther comment upon the magnitude | of the task before us, asked what I | wished him to do next. A Quarrel Avoided i “Get your suppef,” I told him, promptly, “then come back here and stay, so if anyone comes here | and asks for me, you can bring the | mes to me at the apartment.” | I was conscious that Dicky had | shot a keen glance at me, but I pretended not to notice. I was most anxious that he have no further cause for irritation upon Philip Veritzen's account, and it was ai Leedless thing for me to have given the in, tion to Purnell in his| hearing.

I knew, how- ever, that it was of no use for me to bring in Mary's name, if I had to explain my errand to Dicky. He al- ready had expressed his skepticism that any part of Mr. Veritzen's lav- ishness was for Mary, and deep in my heart L/knew that he was right. To my great relief he made no comment upon my instructions to Purnell, and we went up amicably together to our own apartment, where Dicky looked at his watch and yawned. “Me, I've got time for at least thirty-seven and a half winks,” he leaving ge time to shave everything. I'd advise you to snatch some, too. “Perhaps I will,” I said, knowing that was the quickest®way to fore- stall a discussion.

THE END OF THE FIGHT i By Thomwn\48urgess4 Who puts his courage to the test, Though he may lose, has done his best. —Impy the Chipmunk. . There was nothing cowardly about Impy the black Chipmunk. This was his first fight and he was fighting apother Chipmunk who was bigger and older than he. Impy was get- ting rather the worst of it. Yes sir, he was getting rather the worsi of it. That was quite natural. The strange Chipmunk had fought many battles. Not only was he stronger than Impy, but he knew all the tricks of fighting. Over and over they rolled on the ground, bitins. kicking, scratching: every once in while ong or the other would squeal. Now, there was a reason why Impy fought so long and so hari. That reason was little Miss Frisky She was watching that fight anl Impy knew it, He was fighting for her. He would have quit long ago had it not been that she was look- ing on. But the stranger was fight- ing for her, too. Yes, sir, he was s0. You see, he had fallen in lbve with her just as Impy had. So both were fighting for her and each was sure that if he could win thée fight he would win her. Impy was growing short of wind He was getting very, very tired. Still he fought on. Presently he kne he was beaten. He knew that th ‘tranger was too strong for h de knew that when he got thance he would have to run He couldn't bear to of uuch a thing with little Miss looking on. But when it ¥ case of his very life there was noth- ing else to do. He kne tif h Rept on the strange Chipmunk would kill him. Presently the stranger paused for breath. He loosened his grip a little X was Impy's chance. He made the 7a0st of it. He tore himself loose an %as on his feet before you could wink an eve. Then Impy r sir, he ran. The other Chi ran after him. Looking shoulder Impy saw that the Chipmunk was gaining. Feaf gave Impy speed. How his small legs d move! The next time he loo over his shoulder the stranger ha stopped. Impy stopped then. H. needed a wee bit of rest. Th strange Chipmunk said a lot of un- pleasant things. He never to come told Impy in he would aid not a word disgraced.

As with many ofer common be- liefs, the major facts in it are wrong, though the basis of the be- liet is understandable. L In themselves, neither wounds caused by nails nor rust can pro- duce lockjaw. For lockjaw, or Tetanus, follows only upon intro- duction and the development with- |in the body of the germ of lockjaw or Tetanus. Frequently, however, rusty or dirt-covered nails do carry the germ of tetanus, for this germ is com- | mon in the soil—particularly in the vicinity of cow barns and stables. One other reason why the wound caused by a nail, or for that matter, |any dirt-contaminated puncture | wound, may lead to the develop- ment of Tetanus is that the injury usually” is of the penetrating rather than the cutting type. When a cutting object inflicts a wound, it usually causes the tissues to gape., The wound is, relatively speaking, wide open. It bleeds easily and the bleeding tends to wash out the dirt and the bacteria that may have entered the wound. If an antiseptic is applied to the injured part, it has little dif- ficulty in reaching deeply into the expoged tissues. 0 Sudh a wound also is open to the ait, and germs of course do not thrive when exposed to air and sun- light. The puncture wound, on the other | hand, the type caused by a needle, nail or penetrating object, is of & distinctly different type. | While it reaches into the flesh, it does not tear the skin. When it is withdrawn the skin draws to- gether over it, and whatever for- eign materfal may have been intro- duced into the wound is bottle up within it. Within fuch a weund germs can thrive and multiply. FLAPPER FANNY SAYS: Back to th Paris, Sept. 11—The long dress has definitely asserted itself, but it is neither this fashion feature nor that of the return to a normal and even to a higher than normal waist- line which proyides the key to this I new mode. The fact really is that every couturier seems to have get out to resuscitate and to emphasize the old fashioned charm of femi- nine contours, and this effect in itself is sufficient to impart that unpardonable look dowdiness to last year's styles. ‘Wider shoulders and drawn-in waists seem, slowly but surely, to |be 1eading us to the hour-glass | siihouette, but the fashion cre- |ators have to achieve this with- out the aid or thé tortures of the stiffly-bonéd corset. It is amaz- ing, though, to see some of the mannequins with what look posi- tively like eighteen-inch waists. Mystery Via Drapes Draped effects, whether dis- posed at the front or the back, underline the figurée when a wo- man moves as much, if not more, than the straight frock. More- over, it has the added advantage of mysterious charm, so much more appealing than the all-re- vealing knee-length skirt. It is in the evening .modes that the apéx of femininity is.reached. Daytime clothes etill remain es- sentially practical for the re- quirements of thp practical mod- ern woman. As to formal after- noon styles, they verge so closely on informal evening clothep that it is sometimes but a question of sleeves. qr even half sleeves. It is' astonishing how an eve- ning bodice with a dropped bertha that leaves the top of the arm bare can look both demure and modern, So it is with the peplum, the basque and even the bustle, the latter never aspiring, however, to the rigld, deforming atrocity £ was in mid-Victorian days, de- spite assertions to the contrary. Capes Are in Favor Quaintly short basqued jacket: invariably trimmed with luxurl ous fur collars, accompany many styles of evening dress. Capes are in again, either hip length or leng, the latter usually worn with the formal type of evening dress that sponsors a train. The variety of tleeves to be seen in evenihg wraps of the coat type seems infinite,, but the model chosen must always harmonize with the general lines of both dress and wrap. Long, pointed sleeves, for example, would look odd with an even hem, but would just prove the finishing touch w,& dress with a pointed train. The new evening mode lends it- self to many practical combina- tions. The frankly opposed col- ors to be seen in a dress and its accompanying wrap can, with a little foresight and planning, make the wrap do gervice with two ana perhaps three dresses instead of a solitary one of matching color. This will help to make up, in part, for the extra yards of fabric re- quired for the very latest gown. of Fashion Plaque .

Talks OZ, Seeing It Through By Alice Judson Peale The well brought up child seldom needs to be punished, but a good many children are not well brought up, and past mistakes in training frequently bring about situations which demand an ultimatum that must be followed by punishment. At such times it.is well to remem- ber that there is nothing more de- moralizing than punishment which iy threatened and deserved, but not carried out. Peggy, for instance, had been working havoc in the kindergarten by. repeated, willful disobedience. Her teacher was the mildest and gentlest of women, but she finally led her to thé room in which the children took their naps and told ‘her she would have to lie down on her bed and rest until she was ready to play nicely. “I won't come back and play and I won't lle down either. I'll jump up the minute you go out of the rcom,” said Peggy. “If that's what you're going to do, I'm afraid I'll have to tie you so that you can't get up.” “You wouldn't dare tie me; I'd tell my mother on you.”~ The teacher found a string in the cupboard and brought it over to where Peggy lay. “Do I have te tie you or will you lfe still?” There was no answer. As the string slipped over her wrists, Peg- gy decided in favor of lying still. Then minutes later she entered the kindergarten room, and in a chastened mood entered into the play of the group. Punishment always is a last re- sort and an unhappy one. But once embarked upon it must be carried out.
