I Revelations of a Wife

A LETTER FROM DICKY'S MOTHER ANO THE PROBLEM IT CAUSED While still at the breakfast, table I continued reading Dicky's mothers letter. , "ir it Is perfectly convenient for you I should like to start next Monday,

arriving the next day, Tuesday. Will

you write roe at once whether or not

that will be all right for you? "You cannot know, my darling boy, how anxious I am to see you again. You are my qnly son, you know. I have thought fcuiuetlmcs the last year that I might never live, to see your face once more, but uo' it looks as if 1 inilit upend my last tiays with you. J "Please do not neglect io write me at once, tvlling me what road and train will be bust for me., . Give my bestwegards to your wife, and 'remember, dear boy, your mother loves you just the same now as she did when you were a little lad at her knee. Lovingly, your mother. "HARRIKT GRAHAM." I. too, read the letter twice before making any comment upon it. I wondered if Dicky's second had been for the same purpose as mine to gaiu time to think. I was stunned by the letter. I had never contemplated the possibility of Dicky's mother living with us. For years she had made her home with her childless daughter and namesake, Harriet, whose husband was one of the most brilliant surgeons of the middle west. ' I knew that Dicky's mother and sisters had spoiled him terribly when they all had a home together before Dicky's father died. The first thought that came to me was that Dicky's; whims alone were hard nough to humor, but when I had both him and his mother to consider our home life

would hardly be worth the living. I knew and resented the fact aleo that Dicky's mother and sisters disapproved of bis marriage to me. In one of Dicky's careless confidences I had loaned that his mother's choice tor tilm had been made long ago, and that he bad disappointed her by not marrying a friend of his sister. I felt as If T were in a trap. To have to live and treat with daughterly deference a woman whom 1 knew so disliked me that she refused to attend her son's wedding was unthinkable. Of course I could not say so to Dicky, but secretly I thought her letter in bad taste. She might have considered my feelings enough to ask if fhe would be welcome Instead of so calmly taking It for granted that my home would be hers fon the rest of her life. I said this to myself, then flushed with fhame to think I bad been so ungenerous even in thought to my husband's

Bother.

I just got a letter

me to go to a Valentine party with

others to have a good time, and so he is always giving parties and helping others to plan them. He seems to like me especially well right now and has been going with me quite a good deal lately. I like him and enjoy his company, but 1 do not wane him, to get serious because I do not love him and my mother says I should not marry him on account of his health. He was not even allowed to serve in he is so nervous.

from his asking

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl eighteen years old end I went with a certain boy just twice. Both those times he was very nice and seemed to like me real well. I thought that he was going with me all the time and I was very happy because I like him and I have never gone with a boy before. The last night we went together he was Just as friendly as ever, but it has been three weeks now and I haven't heard a word from him. What do you think is the matter? Do you think some one has told him some untruths about me or do you think he 13 just tired of me? . WORRIED. The boy probably likes you just as well 8s ever and one of these days he will seek your company again Don't wonder about it. Just be contented and do not look for h'm. Surely no one has said anything unkind about you. Don't worry, because it is only natural that he should have other things to do and might not think of taking a girl out so soon unless there was something very special going on.

Do not act or talk as if you love him. Simply be a true friend in a platonic way. In reply to "Just Sixteen": (1) As long as you have a free conscience and know that you and your cpusln did nothing wrong, you should not fear your husband's opinion. Be more independent and not so fearful that he

will misjudge you. In the future, how

You could also give her a pretty vase or a pio

In almost any community there is a grandma who knows Mother's Friend:

Xot only is she reminiscent of her own I experience, but it was through' her I recommendation that so many expect- j ant mothers derived the comfort and J

blessing of this famous remedy. . Mother's Friend is an external application prepared especiall for expectant mothers after the formula of a noted family physician. It certainly has a wonderful effect in relieving tension brought about by expanding muscles, and is a most grateful encouragement to the woman awaiting motherhood. The action of Mother's Friend makes the muscles free, pliant and responsive. When baby arrives they expand easily, and pain and danger at the crisis is naturally less. Strain upon the nerves and ligaments, is lessened and in place of a period of discomfort and consequent dread, it is a season of calm repose and happy anticipation. Mother's Friend enables the mother to preserve her health and natural grace and she remains a pretty mother by having avoided the pain and suffering which more often than otherwise accompanies such an occasion when nature is unaided. Write the Bradfield Regulator Co., K 05 Lamar Bldg., Atlanta, Ga for their "Motherhood Book," so valuable to expectant mothers, and in the meantime do not by any chance fail to purchase a bottle of Mother's Friends from the druggist and thus fortify yourself against pain and discomfort. Mother's Friend should be applied night and morning with the utmost regularity. Adv.

I had no doubt which of us would be forced out of the house If there ever came a clash between us. I never could come between Dicky and his mother. I would not do ..'lit even If I could.

Mechanically I ended the letter, trylng to frame phrases which would!

mask my real feelings. For tne first

lime in my life I was confronted with j

the necessity of uttering a deliberate falsehood. I did not want Dicky's mother to livfi with UB. P.ut rov sense of justice and of de

cency told me that 1 must make my j

husband believe Uiat I did. The Problem That the Coming of Dicky's Mother Caused Well!" Picky' voice held a note of doubt as ho held out his band fo his mother's letter. T knew that he was anxiously awaiting my decision as to the proposition it contained, and I hastened to reassure him. "Of course there is but one thing to be don," I said, trying hard to make my tone cordial. "And that Is?" Dicky looked at me

oiriouxly. Was it possible that hei

did net understand my meaning? "Why, jou must wire her at once to tome to us. Be sure you tell her that the will be most welcome."
