Married Life the Second Year
Ignorance is Bliss
BY MABEL HERBERT URNER. As Helen opened the ice chest and stooped down to take out a bottle of milk, a strong odor of stale butter and vegetables greeted her. "Delia, didn't I tell you to clean the ice chest yesterday ?" Delia ironed on in stolid silence. "Didn't I tei! you to clean this yesterday?" Helen repeated. "Yes, ma'am," sullenly. "Then why didn't you do it?" No answer. "Why didn't you clean it, Delia?" "Didn't have time." "lint you did have time, you have had very little to do yesterday. Now Delia this ice chest must be cleaned today. Take all these things off the shelves and wash it out thoroughly. Put. plenty of amonia in the water. And what's this?" taking out a small covered dish. "Parsnips'. Why I told you to throw those out day before yesterday." Delia's only answer was to slam the iron down on its rest with unnecessary force, while she jerked the shirt waist around on the board to iron the sleeve. "And here's some fish balls! How many times have I told you never to put fish of any kind in here? Everything will smell of it. Now you must clean this as soon as you finish that waist. You can do the rest of the ironing afterward. But I want this cleaned now. When you're through, leave it open to air out before you put the things back. DELIA OUT OF SORTS. For several days Delia had neglected her work and had been unusually sullen. Helen felt it had some thing to do with her "young man." He had not called on her for the last two Wednesday evenings as had been his custom. Plainly there had been a quarrel. DerSt was constantly watching for the postman, but no letter in the painstaking illiterate writing had been received. Helen was always sympathetic with any unhappy love affair. She had tried to be patient and to put up with Delia's neglect and unusual bad temper. But now she thought things had gone too far, the dirty ice chest could not be overlooked. And yet s:he felt, vaguely uncomfortable. She had never had a really serious clash with Delia, and was not quite sure what the outcome would be. When half an hour later she again went into the kitchen, Delia was ironing one of Winifred's dresses and the ice chest was untouched. "Delia, Itold you to clean the ice chest as soon as you finished that shirt-waist." "I aint goin' to let these clothes dry out they're all sprinkled and right to iron now. And I aint goin' to sprinkle them over again. There's enough work to do in this place without doin' it twice." "But Delia, I said I wanted this ice dust, cleaned out NOW!" "I'm ironi n ' now. I'll clean it when I set through here." "You T: clean it NOW, Delia or I'll have to get some. one in your place that will." "That suits me. ma'am." Delia slammed the iron back on the range and deliberately untied her apron. "I can get plenty of places with more money and less work than I'm gettin' here." And Delia stalked out of the kitchen, down the hall to her room, leaving the unfinished work on the ironing board and Helen piaading aghast. She had not intended to bring this tc mi issue not this way-. She had no idea that Delia would calmly walk out. What should she do? In spite of all her faults, Delia was very good, honest and dependable. It was only the last few days she had been like this. Then Helen began to wonder if she had been a little unreasonable in insisting on the ice chest being cleaned just then. But it was not only the ice chest she had put up with so much neglected work and sullen defiance this week! Yet more and more she shrank from the thought of breaking in a strange girl. And Warren would be furious! There was nothing he hated mor ethan to change servanes. And tomorrow the Stevens were coming to dinner! What could she do? She heartily wished she had never mentioned the ice chest. Oh, why had she persisted in it so? Vet how could she mako any overturnes now? She went through the hall, passing Delia's room. But the door was closed and there was a sound of a trunk being dragged over the floor. Helen went on into the sitting room and gazed out the window. The thoughts of losing Delia overwhelmed her more and more. .lust then theell rang. Only one letter. "Miss Delia O'Donoghue." read the address painstakingly pencilled in the big, awkward hand. Helen went back and rapped on Delia's door. "A letter for you," handing it in. THE LETTER ARRIVES. Delia took it without a word and again closed the door. But in that momentary glimpse into the room Helen had seen the open trunk and the clothes on the floor beside it ready to be packed. Well, she was going there was no help for it now. Helen took down the telephone book to look up the address of any employment agency. What was

Dear Lady Just because Slimsey Sue, who passed your iron gate every day, wears a smashing Syrian sash about her hips with grotesque flowers on it, don't you! Don't wear a tiny peanut of a hat when you have a whole polar bear wrapped 'round the shoulders. That makes the little hat look a mighty long way off! Fashion has whispered the word across the world, and the word is "Oriental." But, dear
little young lady, don't wear your skirt too top-heavy, too pinched in at the feet; for, where you dream you look like a houri straight from the jeweled and bloody pages of the Arabian nights, it's more likely you are the twin for a REAL Turkish woman. And, seeing some of her in fact instead of fancy, you aren't wishing for that! And don't escort a LITTLE dog. Please, a big one a collie, a retriever,
a wolf-hound, a Great Dane. Beside them you are daintier more feminine smaller. Here is a little woman I saw in a tea room the other day; not little short! Great smothering rolls of fur that would have been stunning on a slim woman piled up about her round face. Her hair was done in the bracelet-like rings on her cheeks. And she led an atom of a baby dog. He was continually trying to get around her. And she
that place Mrs. Lewis had told her about? She had better call her up and find out. Then she remembered Mrs. Lewis was never home Thursday afternoons, and besides it was too late to get any one today. She would have to get dinner herself. And then occurred to her about Delia's pay she would want her money. But this was only the 8th; it would be only about 5 dollars. Yes, she had enough to pay that. There was a sound of Delia's door opening and her steps down the hall toward the kitchen. She had left an apron or something of hers out there, thought Helen. But the steps did not return. Then came the sound of water running in the sink and a noise of pans and dishes. Had she decided to straighten up before she left. Helen waited a few moments, and then went through the dining room to the open door of the kitchen. Delia was on her knees before the ice chest with a big pan of suds beside her. So she was going to clean the ice chest before she went! Delia did not see her, and, not knowing what to say, Helen once more went back into the sitting room to her mending. She finished the tablecloth, sewed on some buttons on Warren's underwear, and mended the lace on Winifred's little shirt. Still Delia was in
the kitchen. Once more Helen went to the door. The ice chest was cleaned and left open to dry, while IVHa was rapidly finishine the ironing. "Do you want that pineapple for j dessert, ma'am or shall I make a cup ! custard?" j I think the custard would be very ; nic-?. stammered Helen. "All right ma'am, and I'll beat up a j sponge cake to go with it." ! And that was all. There was no ex- j plantation and no apology. But Delia I had decided to stay. And Helen was en con j
The letter had been from Delia's "young man." Unquestionably it had i been a conciliatory one. And it had come just in time to restore peace, not ; only to Delia's troubled heart, but to ; the domestic machinery of the Curtis , household. j
Williamsburg Circuit Had Last
Quarterly Meeting Aug. 22, 1853
Editor's Note In today's article on incidents concerning Richmond written by Henry Hoover, the original copy of which is in the posession of a great great grandson, John Thomas, the writer tells of the last quarterly meeting for Williamsburg circuit at Kennedy's Chapel.
The Ones That Sold. Father Well, how does your husband succeed with his art? Does he sell any pictures? Daughter I should think so! Why, there is not one left of those you gave us fur a wedding present!
August 9, 1853. I feel called upon to record a scene new to me aithough thousands are familiar with it. My dear wife was attacked with flux on the twenty-eighth of July and the skill of two able physicians was baffled by the disease, and on the evening of the ninth of August she quietly fell asleep in Jesus. Her mind during the illness was unruffled not a whisper of complaint but with a patient resignation to the will of Jesus she endured all her sufferings. She seemed to have a presentment that this sickness would be her last and in a calm and affectionate manner, called her children and husband to her bedside, charged them to live in love, be affectionate and kind to one another, and meet her in Heaven. May her dying charge rest fresh and abide on her children, and on the writer of these sketches. A fewremarks from her companion who lingers still on earth may not be amiss. On the thirtieth day of January.1810, in Friends' meeting house, Richmond, Indiana, we assumed responsible situation as man and wife and consequently have seen forty-three years and seven months pass away. And had our share of trials to pass through and blessed be the name of God, have always had a table and someuiing to eat, have always had a bed on which to sleep, and a heart to thank the great Giver for his kind care over us. If there is a chordwhich vibrates

unkindly on my feelings it is that I did not during our pilgrimage truly appreciate her worth, that kindness which should characterize a husband was not observed as fully as it now presents itself to my mind. This laxnees was perhaps more in the customs and fashions of the age than from any lack of Bensibility of the heart. Meeting at Williamsburg. On the twenty-second day of August, our last quarterly meeting for Williamsburg circuit was held at Kennedy's Chapel, and resulted in the accession of some thirty members, among them three sons of mine. One son and three daughters having obtained the right of membership, this happy occurrence was no doubt brought about by the loss of a dear mother, who in her dying words enjoined them to turn their faces Zionward and seek salvation. In my trials along the journey of life I have shed tears of sorrow and tears of joy, and could look upon a death bed scene with christian composure and now tears of joy are freely shed to be a living witness to see my children for the land of everlasting rest, and I fondly hope and pray that they and I will never forget that the Lord is good to His people, and that His requirements are wise and for our eternal good.
