Married Life the Second Year
By MABEL HERBERT URNER. THE sound of grating wheels on the drive way in the yard below! It was Warren! Helen half roBe on her elbow, and then, through sheer weakness fell back among the pillows. In the still night air every sound came through her open window the murmur of voices, the steps on the porch and Flamming of the screen door. Warren had come. In a few moments he would be there beside her. Still d-azed from the quieting potion they had given her, after her excited outbreak on learning Warren had been Kent, for without her knowledge, Helen gazed about the room with a strange sense of unreality. Everything seemed curiously unreal the room, the black night outside the window, the murmur and sound of voices down stairs one of which she knew was Warren's. She waited with a sort of apathy for them to bring him to ner. At that moment she seemed void of any feeling. Something trickled down her face. She put her hand to her head and found an ice cap there. Not once, since she had been ill, had Helen realized how very ill she was nor did she now know that the curious sense of remoteness, of unrealness that had come over her was only the stupor of the fever. But as she felt her forehead burning even under the ice, she was conscious of the, vague satisfaction. At least Warren would see that she was ill that he had not been sent for without cause. YES, HE'S DOWN STAIRS SHE SAID. Her eyes closed, she was becoming strangely drowsy again. Then at the sound of some one beside her, she looked up. It was her father. "Is Warren here," she seemed hardly able to form the words. "Yes, he's down stairs. I am going to let. him come up in a moment. Dr. Davis is here, too, and I want him to see you first." Helen's only answer was to close her eyes. The languor that was slowly claiming her deepened. She did not notice the increased anxiety in her father's voice and face. K!u. was' conscious only of an utter weariness against which she could no longer struggle. Dr. Davis was in the room now and her mother. She seemed to feel that lie was at the door, but it all seemed part of a dream the low murmur of voices, the moving softly about the distant barking of the dog. Nothing was clear or distinct. The glint of a shining hypodermic then a quick, sharp pain in her right arm! She moaned and turned uneasily. Was if part of the dream or was it really Warren's voice that cried "Helen! Helen!" it was two days before Helen regained consciousness as it was again night, her first thought was that she had been asleep. The shaded lights were still burning beside the bed, and the white muslin curtains still fluttered out in (he night air. And Warren Warren was lie still down stairs? Had they not brought him to her yet? Then, as she gazed about the room, she was puzzled by the many changes. Her bed had been mc ed away from the wall. A cot was on the other side of tlie room by the window. There were many bottles and glasses on the stand by her bed. The gown she had on was not the same. That, she remembered, had been trimmed with lace and blue ribbon, and this was embroidered. What, had happened? How could all of these changes have happened while she slept. THE WHITE GOWNED NURSE. Andthen. as she stirred, a white gowned nurse, who had been sitting on the other side of the bed bent over her. Helen stared at iter bewildered. The nurse smiled reassuringly. "You are all right now, aren't you?" "But now what had happened? Where is mother?" "Your mother is asleep. Shall I call her? She's been up two nights with von mid I told her she must rest tonight." Slov.lv it was all dawning on Helen. So shi- had been unconscious for two nights. 'And Warren, my husband?" she faltered. "He's down stairs. I'll go for him. I was to let him know as soon as there was any change." "Is is he asleep too?" "Xo, no: he hasn't slept since he came; he won't even lie down. Shall I k him come up now ?" i'eien nodded. "Hut ;.(in niusn't talk, lie can see vcu and stay with you for a little while, but you must promise not to talk. You are not strong enough, yet." "And again Helen nodded and the nurse hurried down stairs. Helen's heart was beating in her throat. "He hasn't slept since he came, he won't even lie down." The nurse's words swept through her like a strong reviving tonic. Did it mean that, after all. he loved her loved her as she wanted to be loved! Or was it only remorse? Oh, no. no! She IF BACK HURTS USE SALTS FOR KIDNEYS Eat Less Meat., far mahr dlaw darth Eat less meat if Kidneys feel like lead or Bladder bothers you Meat forms uric acid. Most folks forget that the kidneys, lflc the bowels, get sluggish and clogged and need a flushing occasionally, fctse "wo have backache and dull misarf in the kidney region, severe headtitrms. rheumatic twinges, torpid liver. cld stomach, sleeplessness and all sorts of bladder disorders You simply must keep your kidneys antlve and clean, and the moment you ffeel an ache or pain in the kidney region, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any good drug store here, take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of gTapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and is harmless to flush clogiced kidneys and stimulate them to normal activity.

Dancing
As it is with most amusements there is a good and a bad side to the latest forms of dancing, buo-step, and can you dance the waltz?" as different from the original Turkey Trot as night is from day, contains nothing but grace and refinement cf movement when danced correctly. To those who abhor the vuloar but enjoy the beautiful side
of modern dancing is bv a pc r c. -i '. I J So W ent t il ' :' "CAN YOI' "!' N ; f V TI.Nd STKF'S?"

Music comes first in ail the modern dancing. The best way to dance is to have
good, catchy music and a good partner who catches your idea, and then work out your dance by getting into the spirit of it. "The real tango the Tango Argentine is not a ballroom dance. Any way, you do not often see it danced without modi-

But it makes a splendid basis, and part of its steps are used and worked into the movements of mv dance. GIRL AT THE RIGHT. "Of course 1 use the characteristic Tango position. "The girl is at the right. The steps are always begun with the outside foot 'her' right and 'his' left. The position is almost like that for the waltz, only you face forward looking toward the outstretched hands girl's right and man's left. "Now here is an attractive step made on a count of four: (1) Step forward on to the left foot; (Hi advance on to the right foot; (3) slight hop on right foot, at the same time bringing the left foot up on a line with the right knee and rather close to that knee; (4) end the figure with a pointed kick with the left foot. This means a kick with down-pointed toe. Repeat this figure three times, forming a semicircle during your progress. This is arranged according to my own steps; the girl starts on her right foot, while you are taking a hopping step backward with your right foot and following closely with the left. (4) With the feet in the same position, take another tep backward with the right foot, following up closely with the left. (5) Now

Again the girl takes the identical steps, but starts on th" right foot. ANOTHER SUGGESTION. "When you have mastered these steps try combining them into figures of your own. Why, pretty soon I'll have you all inventing Brown and Smith. Tangos to rival my own Eaney Tango." But to rival Santley Tango will not be easy, for the joy of youth and the joy of life and the clean grace of young manhood combined with a real knowledge of dancing make it a very charming dance. And for the encouragement of the beginner, let me add that Joseph Santley has acquired all his grace and ease in dancing in just three years.
It was one of the rare perfect moments that life sometimes gives. Whatever misunderstandings or estrangements the future might hold for them, this moment had brought them divinely near. ' 4 Art. mm "g vy-sfi. ,e"- .v,- , r -2 arden of The Rose Maid.

Eastern men of letters were slow in accepting his dialect verse, and it was only after he had recited before them tnat they began to realize the wonderful possibilities of dialect poetry as a medium of interpreting the true reelings and the simple philosophy of the homely people from whom the poet drew his inspiration. Accounts for Success. Time and again. Rhey has been ask ed how he accounted for his success. ! Invariably he would reply in a most typical manner. "I guess there had to be some one to do that sort of thing and the good Lord just picked me. " It was in a recent interview, however, that for the first time he told of the actual work he hac Cone In making his poetry come to possess its strange appeal. In recovering Riley's "lost" works, the editors of the complete edition found that as far back as 1873. Riley had been thinking along the line of "appeal." There were many evidences of this thought along in some of his later writings, but that he should have Been seeking for a basis of universal appeal so early in his career, was indeed a revelation.

Whenever he found that a particular type of poetry failed to ti'iiko an impression or did not meet wholly with the approver of his hearers, he nought to learn the reason for his failure and rt inedied It immediately. In his work on tho loeture platform. Mr. Riley came to realize also that th easiest verse to recite was tba which was conversational, simple and direct. He did not cast about for unusual phrnses. He interpreted hl thoughts in the manner In which the most people would understand them. He did not employ inverted sentence structures. His up of dialect was careful and thoughtful. It was alwavs apropos. He us-d it when It would serve th purpose better than anythlne else. Thus be was ahle to convince the eastern critics that dialect was as ler".tlmate a form for poetry as non-dialect and that through it. one could express as fine sentiment and feeling a through classical verse.
