Married Life the Fourth Year

By MABEL HERBERT URNER. "Nora, Mr. Curtis has just phoned that his sister and her husband are in town and are coming here to dinner. Now you can keep those chops for tomorrow, and I'll phone for a chicken. How about the vegetables?' I guess there's enough of that spinach for four, ma'am. I'll see. looking in the icebox. "No, don't cook the spinach. 1 11 order ' tomatoes, and you can stuff then- They'll be much nicer than spinach. That soup stock will keep, and I'll get some clams. We'll have clam broth in the bouillon cups." There ain't enough milk, ma'am here's all that's left." Yes, I'll order a half pint of cream, you can use some of it in the potatoes. Now, is that all? Have we enough salad?" If she had only known this morning that they were coming! Warrens sitter had not dined with them Finee they returned from abroad, and Helen was particularly anxious to have a well prepared and well served

dinner. Carrie was not only disconcertingly critical, but she was an excellent housekeeper who prided herself on her table. So Helen was determined that every detail of this dinner should be flawless. When she had telephoned the order she looked over the silver to be sure that none of it needed cleaning, got out the best tablecloth and napkins and her finest centerpiece. SHE ARRIVES EARLY. Warren had phoned that Carrie, who had come in to do some Christmas shopping, would be up after the stores closed, about half-past six. Hut that dinner at 7, the regular time, i.r.ni1 hp t,Trlv enoueh. as they were

not going back until the 10:30 train. However, to Helen's dismay, it was not quite 6 when Carrie came. Nora received her, and Helen finished dressing in nervous haste. "I know I'm early," apologetically, "but they've changed the timetable and we'll have to catch that 7:50 train. There's nothing after that until after 11. If you can let us have dinner at half-past six that will give us plenty of time." Dinner in half an hour! Helen knew that nothing was ready and that Nora always got flustered if she had to hurry. "I just phoned Warren about the change; he and Fred will be here in a few minutes. I hope it won't put vow or.t any, but we really must catch that train." oh, of course. I'll go right out and tell Nora." The kitchen was hot and full of smoke, and Nora was down on her kneew basting the chicken. She raised her flushed face with an indign&nt protest. ' Von said dinner at seven, ma'am, and I can't have it no sooner." "Nora, we Ml 'ST they've, got to rufeh Hint train! I'll helD vou!

Never rrind the. anchovy relish, we'll lft them begin with the soup. I'll (ill the bread and fix the celery. Is this the butter for the table?" With her face almost, as flushed as Nora's. Helen flew about the hot kitchen, and back and forth to the dinins room. After all the trouble she had taken to have everything "just right." and now nothing would be served properly in this hurry and confusion. Carrie never dined with them but th;t. something went wrong, she rejected bitterly. WARREN UNREASONABLE. She was just swinging through the pantry door with the celery and ( lives when she bumped into Warren nho;n she hed heard come in with Fred a few moment before. "See here." frowningly, "it's half pa.t six! They'll have to leave here in forty minutes to make that 7:50. "We're hurrying all we can," retorted Helen. "I told Carrie I'd have it at half past, and we've got three rninut'-s yet," glancing at the kitchen clock. "Now please, dear, don't stand there and glower. You're only in the way and you'll make us both nervous." But it was several minutes after half past before Helen, flushed and disconcerted with her exertions in the hot kitchen, gave a last nervous glance at the table and told them to come in to dinner. It was not until they were seated that she noticed Nora had put down the teaspoons instead of the bouilion spoons, an annoying mistake, as Helen was especially proud of her silver. And to further add to her discomfort, the clam broth which Nora ily tnade so deliciously was scor "May I have a napkin?" ask arrie. A startled glance around and Helen kiw that there was not a napkin on the table! In their hurry both she and Nora had overlooked them. "It's our fault for hurrying you," apologized Kred. "I told Carrie if we couldn't come at the time set we should go to a restaurant." Nonsense," protested Warren cordially. "A matter of half an hour ono way or the other makes no difference.

flustered, and it was this calm huperiority of his sister that Helen so resented. "Didn't the lady leave this, ma'm?" Nora held up a small package she had ' )und on the hall table. HELEN SYMPATHETIC. "Oh that's TOO bad," exclaimed Helen. "That's something Carrie bought today, and she wants it I'm sure, or she would have had it sent." "Mail it to her in the morning. He Bure it's nothing that'll break." They had just gone into the library

when the 'phone rang, and Warren i

answered it. ; "Hello. Oh, I hay that's rotten luck! Why. you left here in time! i

Yes, you've got to walk a mile in those blamed stations after you get , there. Tell Carrie it's here and w-'H :

mail it to her tomorrow. Sure, go to i

the theatre! Plenty of vaudeville

houses around there. All right :io ; long." '

"Hut how COULD they miss it?"!

cried Helen when he turned from the

'phone. "You said they'd have plenty of time." "Se;m they didn't." with a shrug. "Had to wait for a car. Suppose they'll go to some show, and not hang around there three hours. But he said Carrie was furious and didn't want to go anywhere. I'll wager she's blessing you. all right, for not having dinner earlier."

Thin People Can Increase Weight Thin men and women who would likp to iuerease their weight with 10 or 1." pounds of healthy "stay there" fat should try eating a little Sargol with their meals for awhile and note results. Here is a good test worth trying. First weigh yourself and measure yourself. Then take Sargol one tablet with every meal for two weeks. Then weigh and measure yourself again. It isn't a question of how you look or feel or what your ii iends say or think. The scales and the tape measure will tell their own story, and most any thin man or woman can easily add from five to eight pounds in the first fourteen days by following this simple direction. And best of all, the new fle6h ttays put. Sargol does not of itself make fat, but mixing with your food, it turns the fats , sugars and starches of what you have eaten, into rich, ripe fatproducing nourishment for the tissues and blood prepares it in an easily assimilated form which the blood can readily accept. All this nourishment now passes away from your body as waste. But Sargol stops the waste and does it quickly and makes the fat producing contents of the very same meals you are eating now develop pounds and pounds of healthy flesh between your skin and bones. Sargol is safe, pleasant, efficient and Inexpensive. Leo H. Fine and other leading druggists in Richmond and vicinity sell it in large boxes forty tablets to a package on a guarantee of weight increase or money back. Adverttsefnnt

A funny and a sad little letter lies blue and sweet-smelling on the "mug-

: any" (as Mrs. Casey says) desk under 'my elbows. It's funny because (oh( not ! funny to laugh at never, but just funny to smile over very tenderly) fun- , ny because its problem is so easy to i solve. and sad because I'm seared for ' fear the little girl who penned it won't 1 solve it right. Hasn't clear-hearted j and brained Frances Garside told you often enough, Little Girl o' the Blue ! Leter, that when Spring weds Winter scarce ever does ehe find herself witli ' the golden apple of happiness in her reaching hand? Oh, sometimes it ; works but EVERYTHING works Have you rung?" frowning at Helen.

"They've no time to waste." "Yes, dear, I've rung twice," again pressing the bell under the table. But as Nora did not appear Helen rose with a murmured, "If you'll excuse me, I'd better go help her. Nora usually serves beautifully, but she does get a little flustered when she's hurried." Carrie's critical silence seemed to imply that her servants were trained never to get flustered. The chickfn and vegetables were finally served, but Helen had to keep Jumping up. She remembered the last perfectly appointed dinner they had

j had at Carrie's, at which Carrie had I not given a word of instruction to the ! maid, much less left the table. , "Oh, ma'am, I forgot the cranj berries," whispered Nora. "Is it too i late?"

Helen turned to Carrie, "Would you like some cranberries?" "No, thank you," icily, "I'm quite through." "Take the plates then, Nora, and bring the salad quickly as you can." Helen, who could never eat fast, had hardly touched her dinner, and kind hearted Fred protested. "You've not eaten anything. Don't let us hurry you, keep your plate and have your salad later. It's a shame to upset you all." "What time is it? Had we better wait for salad?" asked Carrie. Warren glanced at his watch. "Ten minutes after oceans of time." But when the library clock struck the quarter hour, Carrie rose with a decided, "I'd better get on my things. I don't relish the idea of missing that train and having to wait until twelve." "I'm sorry you have to hurry so," murmured Helen, following her into the dressing room. "Yes, this changing of time tables is most provoking. But we'll soon be la town now. We wouldn't have etay-

soraetimes, with some people. You see this blue letter wants to know, ! "Shall I marry a man an OLD man

ed so late, but Fred wanted to spend i Thanksgiving in the country. May 1 j have one of these hairpins?"

Carrie may have hurried through her dinner, but she was most deliberate about arranging her hair and putting on her hat and veil. "Ready?" called Fred. "We've not

as much time as I thought." j As they waited in the hall for the i elevator, Carrie said stiffly, "When-

and have dinner with us." "Yes, we will," murmured Helen quite as stiffly. "Well, that was some rush," grumbled Warren as the elevator door clobed after them." "Oh, it was a shame," bewailed Helen. "All that nice dinner and nobody enjoyed it!" "I'm going to have some coffee and cheese now," and Warren sat down again at the table.

Although Helen protested that she could not eat now, Nora brought her some chicken and the stuffed tomato which she had not touched.
