Love’s Reawakening The Story of a Wife’s Triumph Over Jealousy By ADELE BMadge, Intercepting a Disapproving Glance From Dicky As He First Glimpses the Veritzen Decorations, Sees Trouble Ahead. As I saw the determination with whieh Colin Cameron, the young talkle star was attempting to mo- nepolize Mary, I regretted the deci- sion which had made me seat him at her left at dinner, Noel being at her right. Of course, if he been one of the original invitel guests I should have been compelled to agsign him to Mary as an escort, letting Noel, as practically one of the family, take second place. The . falkie star, as the eldest of ,the * ‘younger men and with his position | [ in the world, would have been a “Inasculine guest of honor second only to Philip Veritzen. But as Mr. Weritzen had intrigued the younger fhan's invitation ‘after our party was made up, I was free to assign him 48 extra man to one of the fem- “nine guests. My first impulse, to which I now devoutly wished I had yielded, had been to place him eith- er at Lillian’s left hand or mine. But that would have made him so con- spicuously a member of the *chap- eron” end of the table, with all the young people at the other, that [ had known I could not do it with- out seriously offending my em- ployer. Schoolboy Jealousy The younger set, including the tadets, noné of whom knew of my table arrangements, were going to the elevator in two groups, the four young girls in one and the college boys and cadets in another. Not even Ronald, I noticed, had singled out Marion, as was his invariable custom when she was near him. Was he going to turn tempera- mental, I wondered, because of the presence of the cadets, or was he unwilling to maké& her conspicu- ous by being the only one of the boys to select a partner before the , Place cards at the table should tell them where they were to sit? If his attitude was due to school- Boy jealousy I was sorry that I had not assigned one of the cadets as extra man to Marion. Instead, mind- ful of the pretty idyl which I, for one, wished to preserve, I had plac- ed one cadet at Carolyn's left as a sep to Helena's maternal solicitude for the social success of her young daughter, and the other at the left ot Peggy, plainest of the girls, as a 80rt of compensation prize. Mr. Seibel's ingenuity had opened leng closed doors and arranged a passage for us from the library, just Deyond the elevators. HKad | GARRISON There was a second’s astonished silence—a. tribute in itself—as our party came in view of the table, with its wonderful decoration of a tiny pool sunk into the table and bordered with orchids—a pool of real water with real wee fish sport- ing within it with small flowers and feathery vines and one genuing water lily bud floating upon its surface. Then the “Ohs” and “Ahs” broke forth, and Jerry, patently the irrepressible one of the college stu- dents, started a handclapping in which everyone joined. But I caught two glapces toward me which held no enthusiasm, despite the fact thai the senders were clapping with the rest. One, frankly venomous, was from Edith Fairfax, and I'knew that she was tribute to me and at the fact that she could not stir Dicky to retalia- tlon. The other glance, quickly veiled, was from Dicky himself, and I saw that it held displeasure at the flamboyant gesture upon the part of my employer. Emotional Control But I knew that I had several potential pieces of 'dynamite scat- tered around the table—Dicky, | Philip Veritzen, Noel, Mary and | Edith Fairfax were all strung to a | nigh* nervous pitch, all rigidly con- |trolling emotions which threatened to erupt. I did not®exclude myself from the list of possessors of highly- strung nerves, but I did know that | T had mine under control. Too much | depended upon my keeping absolute | guard of my words and looks for | me to yield to impulse. But I felt |like a man astride the powder keg, not knowing what second a lighted | match would be dropped inside it. | The dinner progressed smoothly enough, with the services and food so nearly perfect that I saw Mr. | Seibel's efforts had satisfied even | that most captious epicure, Philip | Veritzen. And the theater party afterward—a pleasure even to the |experienced playgoers among us, |and a rare treat to the younger | members of the party, was also ap- }pmnny unruftled by any flaring | up of jealousy or temper. But when |we were back in the hotel—the women in our” apartment and the |men in the Underwoods—rearrang- |ing coiftures and powders for the |dance, Mary drew me aside with anxious eyes. | “Auntie Madge, T don’t know what |to do,” she said. “Noel—" | (Continued Tomorrow) Copyright. 1930, by Newspaper Fea- ture Service Inc. SAMMY JAY HAS SOMETHING TO SAY By Thornton W. Burgess Pogsession is the rule of might: But this is often far from right. —Sammy Jay. Sammy Jay, who most of on, occasionally visited Impy, the black Chipmunk, and littde Mrs. . Impy. He liked to stop for a bit of | gossip now and then. Now, there is no one with a wiser head on his feathered shoulders than Sammy Jay. Sammy is smart. He always ‘wag smart. He was smart from the | time when he first poked his bill | through the shell of an egg. So| there isn't much going on anywhere | in the Green Forest, in the Old Or- | chard, on the Green Meadows or up in the Old Pasture that Sammy | doesn’t know about. If you want the | news of any of these places g6 to Sammy Jay for it. It was shartly after Chatterer the | Red Squirrel had driven Impy and | Mrs. Impy away from the nut trees ) that Sammy dropped down fence post near their home. His .sharp eves noted righf away that ~scmething was wrong with the two “'yovng Chipmunks. “Hello exclaimed “What is the matter folks?"” “Nothing,” replied shortly. Sammy cocked his head on one side and his bright eyes twinkled. “Would you look any happier if something was the matter?” he de- manded. Little Mrs. Impy had a sudden and bright thought. Sammy Jay wonld be likely to know who owned the nuts on those bor ‘there is some d I believe you on a Sammy. with Impy - rather trees the matter a help us.” “I am always ready help any one as pretty as plied Samn v gallantly “Who owns the nuts on trees over asked Impy. “Whoever gets Sammy promptly “Chatterer the Red Squirrel s they all belong to Impy. “Chatterer would,” Sammy. “Those nuts don't « him any mere than v belong to “you or to me.

Impy. “We want some of them to store away for winter, but Chatterer says we cannot have anv.' “That sounds ju er,” replied Sammy. “He knew you didn’t know the Green Forest.

You do not need matched suites to have a most attractive home. The old idea that everything in a room mus’, be identical in upholstery and line is being replaced by the newer one that has them different but harmonious. A room with due regard for the other fur- nishings, color, line, material and general character. As Americans are taking increasing mnterest in house furnishings and decorating they are increasing their knowledge of such things, have more confidence in their own taste and are working out more intricate and varied arrangements in each room. A divan or davenport, upholstered in figured tapestry or haffd-blocked linen, does not require two chairs to match, upholstered in the same ma- terfal. An arm chair may be up® holstered in material of a solid celor, either the most conspicuous color in the figured goods, or else the most somber, depending on the size of the chair and room. Another chair might be covered in a striped ma- | terial in two tones of brown and tan, green and heige, black and gray, blue and blue or any other combination that is found in the figured daven- port. Ensemble Theme is Foe of Monotony All three of these pieces would harmonize and be charming to- gether. tic and practical, of this new ensem- ble idea are many. You dispel all deadly monotony—the danger run when using suites. You have a possibility of infinite variety in your room. You can change the whole aspect by re-covering a single chair. When one piece of a suite wears out, a separate piece may be purchased to replace it. The same idea of ensembles may also .be worked out in connection with designs and styles in furnish- ings. Anyone who has tried work- iing out a room in reproductions en- tirely from one historic perfod will realize immediately the special bene- fits to be derived from the ensemble rather than the exactly matched |groups. A tirepome, museum-like appearance is avoided and a charm- ing, livableness introduced. Subtle harmonies have an original charm that is vastly more pleasing than the obviousness of exact matching. The main consideration is work- ing out new ensembles for this win- ter is to make sure that harmonies |among the several pieces do exist. The heaviest, sturdiest designs of one period are likely to overshadow the | more delicate, graceful pieces of an- other. You can mate fine antiques with modern pieces of one periéd with another, hewever, if you are careful to insist that all of the fur. niture used harmonizes in line and proportion. Another new note is emphasized this autumn. Each piece of furni- ture need no longer be of the same wood as all the rest. With perfect propriety now you may bring into a |single room a chair of one wood, |tables of another, a desk of a third iand yet another piece or two with a ize in color and texture and give | variety and sophisticated interest to {the room. Brown mahogany has many | qualities which fake it akin to wal- | nut and theréfore permit its use with walnut. Many fine and rare - woods are being used to trim and decorate large picces of furniture. You can blend in a single chair or little table of these rare woods to the artistic benefit of the whole, As illustrated of the successful ensemble introduced in a living room, the davenport is upholstered in a brocade of rich tan, with rose |and soft green in it. There is a wal- Inut chair uphelstered in practically the same tan, in a brocade of a dif- ferent design, with a silky pattern, home-spun {n the softest rose and |tan. The curtainsase all three of the main colors in their design, a col- orful yet delicate pattern in glazed chintz. In this room, too, a gate- leg table of mahogany blends nicely with the walnut of the other pieces.

Diabetes is a very serious dis- ease in which the body is unable to properly make use of starchy foods or sugars. The diabetic literally starves for want of nutriment. In addition, excéss sugar, and certain acids formed in the blood give rise to profound disturbances, which if uncorrected ultimately lead to death.
