Love’s Reawakening The Story of a Wife’s Triumph Over Jealousy By ADELE “Ldllian Urges Madge to Make a Last Determined Effort to Cure Phil Veritzen of His Mad Infatuation. I stared at Lillian stupidly as she finished her answer to my ques- tion of what was to be done about Mary. She eyed me shrewdly for an instant, then laughed unmirthfully. “+Aghast,’ ‘astounded,’ ‘uncom- prehending'—you're registering all of them,” she gibed. “You don't ‘get me,’ do you? Welll pull my spiel to pieces then and ask about each separate item. ‘Ask me Go on!” She had given me myselt together, and resolutely. time to pull I faced her “First I want to know what vou | mean by my bringing Mr. Veritzen | ‘to the mourners’ bench during this | doesn't | Christmas vacation’ He plan— A Holiday Hint “Oh! yes he does,” Lillian replied Promptly. “He told me a little while ago that he intended to go down to ~Long Island to that hotel near the ~farmhouse for the holidays, saying Jhat he hated Christmas time in the Zeity—can you imagine cosmopolitan ~Phil springing a spiel like that?

Hc made it most emphatic that he was going to stay at that hotel he likes so well.” Good Sound Advice “Can you tell me where I'd put him even if he invited himself for a sojourn at the farmhouse?” I asked with a mirthless grin. “You'd manage some way,” she answered comfortably, “but fortu- nately you won't have to. You ought to be thinking about one thing. and that's what T said about ‘bringing Phil to the mourn- * bench’ which scemed to puzzle vou. It should be perfectly clear to vou, and if it isn’t I'm going to re- peat in words of one syllable what I've hinted and told you outright many times before." She paused, looked me steadily in eyes and then said slowly: “If you cannot win Philip Ver- itzen to the cause of Noel and Mary, then it's hopeless, and you might as well let Mary grab what chance she can for fame and for- tune. I know it's a mean. thankless job, and Dicky will no doubt act like a hyena with the mumps for scveral weeks to come. But I'm banking on you not only to win the old boy over, but to tame him so he won't be everlastingly bothering veu with his sheep's e and his ccmplimen Honestly, every time I hear him talking to you lately, 1 want to lay back my ears and bleat.” sts at heart, (Continued Tomorrow) Copyright. 1930, by Newspaper Feature Service, Inc, The armed, rejoicing in their might, Are always looking for a fight. —DMother West Wind.

HOW'S yaur HEALTH for Edired by thé New York | Dr. lago Galdston ~ ~ Acadeimy of Medicine Fatigue v Fatigue is one of the fascinating problems in physiology, for the mechanism behind fatigue is even at this late date only incompletely understood. Fatigue is an important item in industry and in the home. Fatigue affects efficiency and has a direct bearing on disease. Sir James Paget once said, “You will find that fatigue has a larger share in the promotion and trans- mission of disease than any other single causal condition you can name.” Ordinarily, we think of fatigue in terms of our muscles, but it has been amply shown that fatigue af- fects the body as a whole and every organ, tissue and cell of which the | body is’ composed. We know that fatigue may affect glands so that they secrete less than what is normal of their substances. The kidneys may be deranged through fatigue so that they sub- stantially lose their efficiency as filter: Fatigue affecting the heart may cause it to dilate, and its beats are usually quickened and irregularly timed. The ecarly stages of mental fatigue are characterized by a diminution of attention, difficulty in concentrating, |and slowness in reaction {o stimuli, {in memorizing and in reasoning. | It has often been said that th | American nation is chronically sub- ject to fatigue. Professorg Irvin Fisher, in a study of the cost of ill- |ness, observed that “the economic | waste from undue fatigue is much than the waste from serious Whether or not the diagnosis us it pertains to the nation as a whole ig correct or not is not very perti- nent. But fatigue as it affects the in- dividual must certainly be of utmost significance to him. RUDE AWAKENING Belleville, Tl (UP)—It cost Mrs. Margaret Mansfleld $249.60 and took her 10 years to find out that she was not the beneficiary of her late sband’s insurance policy. Mrs. i Mansfield had been paying the premium on her husband's policy for 10 years, only to discover re- cently upon his death that his first wife, her predecessor in Mansfield's affections, was benefited by the in- surance. ESKIMO ADAM Stockholm — Adam lived in an | igloo and was closely related to the | Neolithic men who once lived in caves in France, according to Knud Rasmussen, Eskimo authority.

Floor coverings take on new im- portance as the interiors of our homes dress up for the elegant era in which we will spend the winter, and in all probability many more | winters and summers to come. | The reign of a single solid color | on floors is over. A two-toned rus| or carpet is much more fashionable now than one color. Floral or oth- er patterned carpets and rugs are in the ascendencs Of course, you can add teresting floral touch or a guishing design to your floors by | the use of a small rug or two. This is an especially good trick to use in spots which get unusual wear—in front of the davenport, buffet, under the most popular easy chair in the house, by tha library table. New rugs are patterned, many of them in 18th century English, Early American, Directoire and Empire designs and in Italian Rennaissance, Jacobean and French Louis effects.

Co ations in Vogue Two-coltt combinations that are being bought include black and gray, brown and taupe, green and silver, and two tones of green. A three-color selection that fs most pleasing includes powder blue, ashes of roses and green, soft colors that will give a restrained elegance to | a room. In addition to the . floral other conventional designs, sev- eral unique patterns are being in- | troduced this fall. One of these is a pattern adapted from a snake- n.

Among the motifs copied are Indian, Cashmere, the Tabris Iran, Bijar and Sarouk types. Mill improvements in this country have made unusually fine work possible. In selecting a rug, as you doubtedly know, everything elsa in the room must be considered. Large rugs should Le fairly subdued, if they are to fit in with the chairs, tables, davenport, pictures, drapes, lamps and so on. Small ones can be much gaye The design of the little ones may even be quite com. plicated, the colors arresting. But they should never clash, either in design or color. In Modernistic Mode Besides floral rugs and repro- ductions of old masters, and the other conventionally designed rugs, there are a multitude of new mod- ernistic rugs that have none of tha objectionable arrogance of the fi modern productions, but are suave in their lines and often tie up ni 1y with lamp shades, window drapes or other decorations, Linoleums have improved until smart enough un- been greatly | some of them are to walk into the children’s rooms, the play room, sewing room.

One way to add to a rug's “life expectancy, as the insurance men would put it, is to place a rug cushion beneath the rug. These are not expensive and make the rug softer to walk on, as well as prolong its life. &%, parent since Mary BY ALICE Jane's Nap JUDSON PEALE Mother was telling Aunt Helen | the about her difficulties in getting Mary | Jane to take her nap. She said she had tried everything she could think of—she had coaxed, bribed, threat- ened—all without success. Mary Jane's resistance to the whole idea of napping had only grown more violent, until lately the mere sugestion that she lie down was enough to produce a tantrum. “I have decided that Mary Jane cannot be made to take a nap, so I am going to give up.” Next day, as Mary Jane was fin- ishing her lunch, Aunt Helen came in with a book under her arm. fary Jane, I'm going to rest. Do you want to come with me? I have a story that I think you'd like to hear.” “Yes, I'lll come, but I'm not going to sleep.” “You don't havé to. Just come and lie down with me and listen to this story.” They lay down together. As the reading went on Mary Jane's eyes grew heavy. Aunt Helen dropped her voice. Mary Jane's eyelids dropped, opened, dropped again. In FLATPER FANNY SAYS! REO. U S. PAT. OFF. i When a wife loses her temper her husband catches it.

Next day Aunt Helen again ape peared with the book in her hand. “Are you coming with me, Mary Jane?” “Yes, but I'm not going to sleep, You made me go to sleep last time. But I won't do it again.” “I didn't make you go to sleep. You just went to sleep all by your- self. Come along and listen to this story—it's a very nice one.” Mary Jane came. Again she grew drowsy. In even less time than on the previous day she went fast asleep. Every day for a week this went on. At the end of that time Mary Jane took her nap without even the promise of a story.
