I pj I gg MM Revelations BY ADELE WHAT A THOUGHtVESS WALK BROUGHT MADGE I had walked a long-way from tbej door of my apartment oeiors i recovered from tbe shock of my neighbor's Insolence Of course I realized that Ehe had no Idea I could overbear bet words when she said to her maid: "Oh! that woman from across the hall, I suppose I shall have to eee her." Upoa tbiaking it over, I waa a trifle ashamed of the childish rage that had made tne' walk away from my neighbor's door without waiting for tha maid to come back with the gTodging Invitation to come in. I should have waited in a dignified manner and declined the invitation, saying that I only wished to inquire after the baby's welfare which was the truth. But the insolent, . drawling' Vords, had made me so angry that I could not have controlled my feelings if I had met the woman who uttered them. To think that this woman whose baby bad been brought almost dying into my apartment the night before, when she was absent, shouid consider it a bore to meet me! Why. if it had not been for the skill and promptness of Lillian Gale, and the assistance all of us had given her, the baby might now be dead! I felt that I had read her and her husband correctly the night before, when I thought them snobbish and illbred. - "Look out, lady! Why don't you

of a Wife GARRISON look where you are going?" A policeman's . hand grasped my arm and swung me out of the path of an automobile bus. I looked around startled. I had been bo absorbed in my angry thonehts that I had not noticed in the least where I was walking. Here I tvae in thp middle of Fifth avenue. Its many vehicles of all kinds darting up and down! "Don't you ever do that again. You might have been killed." The officer's voice' held a note of anger, for which I did not blame him. If anything bad happened to me, be probably would have had to bear part of the blame. '"Where do you want to go anyway T he grumbled. Evidently be did not intend to lose sight of me until I should be started safely on my way. I searched my brain wildly for an answer. Where did I want to go? U I 6hould tell this solicitous policeman the truth, "Anywhere, for a walk," I felt that lie would look upon me with suspicion. , , The sight of another automobile bus lumbering up the avenue gave me as inspiration. "I want to take a bus," I said. "All right, lady. I'll take you over to it. You want to remember next time, that thev stop on, this side of the street." He still grasped my arm firmly as if he suspected me of an intention to run away from tim. I entered the bus and sat down. Then I had a sudden thought Why not ride out side?

But the day was unusually mild, almost like spring, although it was January, and I wa3 warmly clad. Indaed I had found my heavy long coat very oppressive in my walk. It would be just the thing for a ride. As I paid my fare I spoke to the conductor. "Is there room on the top?" He grinned widely. "Plenty of room, lady." When I climbed the winding stairs to tbe top, I found bis word6 were only too true. One man, envel oped in a big fur coat and smoking vigorously, sat in a rear seat The rest of the seats were empty. I would have turned and gone down again, but I did not like to face the conductor's wide grin, so I walked calmly to the front seat of the 'bus, always my favorite when I can get It, and settled down to enjoy my ride. All the world and bis wifa appeared to be on the avenue. My seat on the front of tbe 'bus was like'a box seat in a theatre. From it I could look down on the people below. I could see beautifully costumed women in automobiles and on foot, and jostling them closely came numbers of other women in the i cheapest kind of clothing, yet all of it carefully imitating tbe costlier attire. No place for real shabbiness on the avenue! Plenty of shoddiness, plenty of cheap imitation, but I did not see a single person whe dress showed real poverty. The men whom I saw looked prosperous, too. Some of them hurried by with the pra-Occupied air that belongs to the city business man. Others walk was the only thing to occupy their minds. As the bus came to a stop opposite the great Public Library building, blocked by one ot the frequent "Forty-second street jams," I saw one of these strollers life Ms eyes to the top of the 'bug where I sat I recognizedd him with a queer little sinking feeling at my heart. It was Harry Underwood. My dislike of this man was becoming almost an obession. It v.as not lessened by the unreasoning little fear that crept over me whenever I saw him. As be saw me. his face lightened up with a smile which, even in the face of my aversion to him, I had
