Long Island, is home no a short furlough. Kolps complete orchestra will furnish the music for the Elks' dance this evening at the club house at 8 o'clock. The dance will be a St. Patrick's party and all Elks and their lady friends are invited. The affatr will be quite Informal. With rhubarb on the market and the supply of sugar limited, a new problem faces the housewife. Several remedies for this problm have been suggested. First, jellies which are six to nine months old, are not fresh now and in some cases might not be used. Equal parts of jelly and rhubarb cooked together make a refreshing compote. Foreign cooks melt Jelly for a good many uses. If rhubarb in cut up in this melted jelly and cooked it will give the rhubarb a sweet tacte. It is not a bad way to soften a sour like rhubarb to use slightly sweetened whipped cream with It. A grape jelly will give a fruit dish a handsome color especially when contrasted with a little whipped cream served on top if it. Miss Gertrude Clark entertained with a six o'clock dinner last evening at her home in compliment to Frank Solomon, of Elwood. The table was attractively decorated with St. Patrick's decorations. Covers were laid for Miss Evelyn Edwards, Miss Mildred Edwards, Miss Gertrude Clark, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Unthan!:, John Freeman and Frank Solomon. Miss Mary Schweikert and Dan Walsh of Springfield.

Revelations of a Wife

HOW MADGE SAVED THE SITUATION "Aha, , here's the wanderer! We thought you were never coming." Uarry Underwood and Dicky sprang to their feet as Lillian and I entered her dining room. Of course Mr. Underwood was the first to speak. I stole a glance at Dicky. Was he still angry? "Hello, Madge." Dicky's voice was careless. Its indifference stung me a little, but I resolved not to let it affect me. "Good afternoon, Dicky," I said as demurely as I could; then to his companion: "I have already greeted you once today, I believe." For just an instant Harry Underwood's face was ludricrous in its surprise. He had not, dreamed that I

would dare mention his having seen Jack and me at the door of the restaurant when I had been so distressed at the loss of my rings. 1 knew I risked something in speaking of the meeting. He might resent my flouting of his knowledge and speak of the temporary loss of. the rings before I could tell Dicky about the episode myBelf. But I had weighed thigs carefully before I spoke. I could not aord to let Harry Underwood imagine for a second that be was doing mena favor in being silent about any affair of mine. - Lillian and Dicky loked their surprise. I explained in as matter-of-fact manner as I could muster: "When ray cousin and I left Broquln's, where we dined, Mr. Underwood was passing." . Harry Underwood's piercing black eyes met mine squarely. They were dancing with mirth, in which I knew there was more than a 6oupcon on matee. "Broquln's!" exclaimed Lillian, as she indicated my chair, and rang for the maid. "That reminds me. I have not been to Broquln's for ages. It's a bully little place. Do they dress their salads as well as ever?" A "Smart" Cook I was so grateful to her for changing the subject that I forgot to be an

noyed at Harry Underwood's effusive manner as he pulled my chair back and seated me in my place. "The coffee, Betty," Lillian said quietly to the colored cook who had come into the room at the tap of the bell. "Oh, yas'm. Miss Lillian. I'll bring the coffee, yas'm." She disappeared, grinning from ear to ear. Harry Underwood frowned. "When are you going to attach a can to that noisy coon, Lil?" he demanded unpleasantly. "She's getting fresher every day." "I'd sooner attach one to you, dearest," she flashed back at him. but good-naturedly. I could not detect a trace of temper or even annoyance in her answer, although Harry Underwood's tone was one that almost any wife might resent. "On the principle that it's always mighty easy to get another husband, but not so easy to get a good cook?" Dicky asked impudently. " "Exactly," returned Lillian laughing. "Remember, husbands come higher, the older the bidder," Harry Under

wood said, and his cutting tone gave; emphasis to the offensive words. Lillian flushed under her rouge, but ' luckily the entrance of Betty saved the . situation. "How did yoh all like dat pie?" j Betty demanded of everybody in gen-'

eral, as 6he passed the coffee. I looked at her in amazement. Sure

ly Mr. Underwood's criticism was somewhat justified. "Scrumptuous, Betty," said Dicky, laughing. "Didn't you see I took two pieces?"
