Love’s Reawakening The Story of a Wife’s Trinmph Over Jealousy By ADELE Dicky’s Naive Delight in “Crush- ing” the Orchids Presented to Madge by Phil Veritzen Is of Short Duration 1 caught back a surprised gasp comment upon The crassness that 1 could my missing orchids. was o unlike him only conclude his poise had been | disturbed by something unusual. | Dicky covered my surprise with a | quick answer to Mr. Veritzen's lit- | tle speech. “You must blame my awkward- | ness—or perhaps my impetuosity” | —he shot a provocative side glance | ham’s orchids. I am afraid that in that last dance I forgot—or rather remembered”’—his lips quirked into | a grin—“that she was my wife and | hugged her so tightly that the or- chida broke and scattered. I was desolated when it happened, for I never have seen anything so ex- quisite as those white orchids against her green gown. I think I shall have to paint you that way, Madge.” Dicky Proves Ingenious | His eyes half closed, as if he were | visualizing the painting, and I choked back a laugh with difficulty. | mission ever given depended upon | # Dicky would never paint me with white orchlds at my shoulder, rem- iniscent of Mr. Veritzen's gift. | But Dicky seemed determined to | gild the lily. With the air of one | seeking information, he turned back ! to my employer. | “D'ye mind telling me where you | got them?” he asked. “I'd want to be sure of getting as good ones for a canvas. When = Madge showed them to me tonight I exclaimed at their perfection. She had the begin- | ning of an idea that she ought to be | a patient Griselda wife and wear a bouquet I had sent her, not know- ing that you were sending flowers to all the feminine guests and the hostess. But I soon disabused her | mind of that idea. It would ha\-ci' heen a crime not to wear them, but ii is a worse crime to have spoiled them. If there were any possible | way I could replace them, but at | this hour——" He spread his hands, expressively. | With difficulty 1 preserved a “poker face” through his ispeech. I hoped the recording angel was busy listening to some other sectidn of the world while Dicky was blandly saying that he had sent a bouquet to me, ‘“not knowing” that Mr. Veritzen had already sent flowers. But my heart thrilled at his in- genuity, He had “put over” the| fact that I had worn the orchids| | where we saw that Mr. GARRISON only-at his insistence, but had so coated the pill with sugar that my employer could find no possible excuse for open resentment, even if his pride had permitted him to show any. Mr. Veritzen was silent for a long second, and from under my discreet- 1y lowered eyelashes I watched his face. There was no expression save that of the courteous attention giv~ en by one gentleman to another's remarks, But when at last he spoke there was around his lips the wraith of a humorously cynical smile. “Fortunately, I am always pre- pared for emergencies,” he said, and held up - suddenly peremptory fin- ger to Purnell, who was replacing the used cups at the fruit punch table with fresh ones. The little darky skimmed across thé floor to, ug and stood at attention. “Bring that box I gave You into the back room.” he ordered, and Purnell gave the effect of saluting as he hurried away. “Will you accompany me?”’ Mr. YVeritzen said formally, and, walking between my husband and my em- ployer, I went into the back room, Seibel had rearranged the dinner table, making it a buffet. The food, of course, was not all in place, for the supper was not to be served until after midnight, but everything else was ready, and while we were waiting for Purneli we stood admiring the center-piece of a miniature pool and bordering orchids. Veritzen Has “Last Laugh” “Thoge tiny goldfish are the world’s best bet,” Dicky said, touch- ing one of them with the tip of his finger and laughing as the little thing flipped an absurd tail and dove to the bottom of the pool. There was distinct respect and ad- miration in the gaze I sent him. I knew that his real feelings toward Mr, Veritzen could not be uttered without profanity, but his manner that of a respectful, apprecia- tive younger man toward an older one of distinction who had compli- mented his family. But when Purnell brought back an immense box and Mr. Veritzen opened it, disclosing orchids of hue used in the corsages of the dancers I saw Dicky's eyebrows narrow for an instant, and knew that the naive delight he had taken in smashing my bouquet of white orchids was spoiled by, the patent intention of Mr. Veritzen to replace them.

Burgess Naught so selfish is as greed: Careless of another's need. —Old Mother, Nature These were busy days under and | in ‘the beechnut trees. Yes, indeed, these were busy days. Al the Squir- rel famlly, including Happy Jack the Gray Squirrel, Rusty the Fox | Squirrel, Chatterer the Red Squirrel, Stripped Chipmunk, Impy the black Chipmunk and Timmy the Flying Squirrel, were there. The latter | came after dark; but all the oth-| ers, with their mates, were on| hand with the coming of daylight| and remained until the Black Shad- ows came creeping out. Buster Bear got around once a day. Light- foot the Decr and Mrs. Lightfoot were around, sometimes two or three times in a day. Thunderer the Gruse and Mrs, Grouse feasted their daily. Sammy Juy cafe often. | Little Whitefoot the Wood Mous got his share every night. Even Bobby (foon and Unc' Billy Possum visited the nut trecs. So you see was a very busy season. Now, Buster Bear and Lightfoot the Deer, the largest of the visitors, seemed not to care how many oth- | ers might be enjoying the feast. 1t was a good deal that way with | Bobby Coon and Unc' Billy Possum. So long as no one interfered, these folks did not care how many others might be there. But it wasn't so with with some of the smaller peo- ple. Happy Jack Squirrel and Chat- | terer the Red Squirrel were con- tinually quarreling. Chatterer especially quarrelsome. Both were | ay mean as they could be to the| Chipmunks. Whenever they happen- | ed to be on the ground and Striped Chipmunk, or Impy the black| Chipmunk, appeared, Chatterer and | Happy Jack would forget their own | quarrel and try to drive the Chip- munks It was only when Happy Jack and Chatterer were up in the trees that the Chipmunksghad | any peace at all “I don't was Bw is the matter | with Happy Jack and Chatterer.” said Impy to his father, Striped Chipmunk. “If T happen to pick up ' a few nuts near Buster Bear, he doesn’t say anything. Lightfoot the Deer doesn't say anything if I find some nuts right beside his nose, Mr. and Mrs. Grouse never say a word. But those two cousins of ours seem to hate to see me get a single nut [ don't understand it." * “It's selfish greed,” replied Strip- ed Chipmunk. “Buster Bear, Light foot the Decr, Mr. and Mrs. Grouse Une' Billy Possum and Bobby Coon take only what they can eat at the present time. They do not store up food. So, as long there enough for the present don’t care how many take. Chatterer and Happ have storehouses just the same as have ard so they want all the It's seltish greed and nothing see what meal, they you and T we nuts, else.” that so?’ barked a sharp| “If T happen to pick up a few nuts near Buster Bear, he doesn't say anything” voice, and Striped Chipmunk dodged just in time to avoid the rush of Chatterer the Red quirrel, that is so!” retorted Striped iipmunk. *“And all he Green For- est knows it. Never n my life have I seen any one as selfish as you and Happy Jack. If you had your way, the rest of us would starve and you would have so much you wouldn't know what to do with it. But as leng as there are nuts here, 11 have my share and don't you forget it!” He tucked another brown nut into one of his cheek pockets as he angered Chatterer that he made a rush at Striped Chipmunk and then chased him for some dis- tance. Meanwhile, Impy the black “hipmunk hastily stuffed his pock- ets in his cheeks with a lot of little brown nuts that Chatterer had ound just before he drove Striped Ohipmunk away. By the time he re- turned. Impy had disappeared. So, of course, had the little-brown nuts. Such a rage as Chatterer flew into then! He shrieked “Thief!"” at eve body in sight and no one paid least attention to him. Meanwhile Impy had hurried home to emptv his pockets. He told Mrs Impy, who was there ahead of him, all about Chatterer Ifish greed doesn't pay.' nodding her head sagely (Copyright, 19 w. o The next story he Harvest Is Forgotten.” little she, s8) T YTh Menus ofteDay B By Mr: Alexander George LEFTOVERS IN NOODLE RING Menu For Dinner Noodle R 1 red Green Reans Plum Jelly Pear Salad Cantaloupe Coffce Noodle Ring cooked 3 noodles. 3 tablespoon: Three cu tablespoons butter, said | | | | am a la King | creamy Once Overs Repistered U. 8.

But the only food substance that can with any justice lay claim to this title is milk. Milk is most important, if not the most important, of all human fcods. Its composition is such that man could practically live upon :t without any other substance. the viewpoint of digesti- milk is food in an ideal con- cition . From an ecconomic view- point, milk gives more fuel per unit cost than practically all other foods, Milk ordinarily contains about 87 per cent of water, and 13 per cent solids. It is the solids in the milk that are valuable, though their suspension or solution in the wa- ter is important. Of the 13 per cent solids, ap- proximately 3 1-2 per cent is fat and per cent to 5 per cent milk Milk also contains valuable { mineral salts which are useful 4o the body. In mest communities wlhere ihe production and distribution of milk is supervised milk is classified In grades A, B, and C. Contrary to the common impres- sion these gzraduations are not based upon the fat contents of the milk, but on the number of bac- teria found in a cubic centimetre of milk, While milk is an ideal food it is also a dangerous food—dangerous 4 handled in an unsanilary man- ner. To be on the safe side, milk should be pasteurized, and if pas- | teurization is not feasible it should | be broughtto the boiling point and | quickly cooled. Even pasteurized or boiled milk, it not stored properly and kept cool, may become contaminated with disease germs and produce illness.

L with ance sign, The lamps with which you light your home and the curtains and the drapes with which you dress your windows often ‘are the finishing touches that give character to a room. For lamps and windows might, with perfact propriety, be said to de the same chamming things to a rdom that lovely eyes and a warm- ing smile do to a woman's face. Knowing this, it is cvident of what importance your choice of lighting and window trim are. Both should be in tune with all| o, a room's furniture and color scheme. Fall - fabrics for windows are full of intercst and charm. Glazed materials are increasingly popu- lar, for their fresh crispness adds a sprightly note that the hous2 needs as fall i$ upon us and win- ter approaches. Voiles and pic- torial fabrics present scenes that vary widely, from hunting parties to quaint pastoral groups. For a profusion of colors, there are in- numerable floral prints. The fa- miliar tapestries. * satins, brocades and velvets come in new colors to blend with carpets and self-color satin stvipes introduce a new deli- cate formality that is desired to- day. Damasks give us two-tone effects that may be just what a rcom needs. Drapes Should Reach Floor How you cut and arrange your drapes is a matter of individual taste but no drape should be less than 32 inches wide, all are bet- ter limed, all make a room seem higher if they reach the floor. You can have valances or no valances this winter but there is a prefer- ence for them in most places, when windows are wide. Glass curtains perform the dual role of securing” privacy and ad- mitting light at one and the same time. Silk gauze, marquisette, scrim, theatrical gauze, with wool embroidery, chiffons, voiles, ra ons and many new cotton fabrics offer delicate glass curtain mate- rials. The plainer the glass cur- tains, the lovelier, if you are using formal drapes. But the sweet frilled dimity and dotted Swi curtains of another age are very good for cozy rooms, cspecially when Colonial or other Provincial furniture is used. Choosing lamps this autumn more a matter of elimination than anything else, so multitudinous, are the new shapes and colors. Colonial lamps are especially pop ular, early English types or sub- stantial and comfortable looking and a wide range of subdued mod-‘ ernist® lamps offer a wealth of | choice. The newest lamps show care {o harmonize the base and shade. A pewter base, for example, may be used with ,a tan shade in which the deslgn is pewter-colored. Re- gardicss of the color of the shade, many of the new ones have the berder matching the base, the whole thing being treated as a unit. Among the popular colors are ox-blood, coral, Ming blue, all shades of tan, and many rose-hued shades. All colors, however, are availabla, If you look long enough, you are likely to find the exact lamp and shade you have been dreaming about. Dark Corners Brightened Small shadow lamps, usually| with a feminine figure outlined against the light background, re- tain their popularity. They are Mrankly ornamental, their chief use in to provide a mellow glow | major lamp. There is increasing | use of such lamps to brighten dark corners. It is quite the thing nowadays to have several lamps in the same room, some for utility, some for decoration. They should, how- ever, all belong more or less to the same family., It is a mistake to have an assortment of shades that bear no relation in materials or color, to each other.

An individual who habitually meets his difficulties with anger is put at a disadvantage. He geta along badly with people and he does rot deal as competently as he other- wise would, with the work which he has to do. Anger as a chronic response is something which need not be: per- mitted to develop in any child if he is properly handled. Here arc a few suggestions which should be helpful: 4 Don’t tease or humiliate child. People often tease babies because their rage is considered so “‘cute,” Lut this is an expensive sport for which the child pays and which no mother should allow. Don’t nag.
