She Married An Average Man

BY ZOE BECKLET

For a moment after the portrait painter said. "He's a British soldier, wounded in France, named Eric Sands," my heart stopped beating. Coming in the midst of my almost hysterical gayety at Athena's masked ball, it shocked me like the report of a pistol. It sobered me a3 water quenches fire. I couldn't speak. And I told myself that the reason I couldn't was my great surprise. 1 know now that it was one-third surprise and two-thlrda fear. Yes, fear. I write it frankly clown. Fear of what? Fear of the gentle, kindly fellow who never could hurt even a wild flower by the wayside? Fear of Jim's anger when he knows Eric Sands is coming to America? Fear of Jim's jealousy? No, no, no! It is fear of myself. Fear that my silly, weak, wistful woman's heart will betray me into stealing something I

long for and have no right to take. ! And what is this thing I long for? Ah, how well I know! It is tenderness; it is understanding; it is sympathy; it is affinity of mind and heart. Jim gives me the best he has. Jim is not to blame. Nor am I to blame. I believe in most marital tragedies neither party is to blame. They marry in all good faith. They do the best they know how. It is nobody's fault that time brings revelation, realization and change. As I look about me, especially In this whirlpool of events and temptations that is called New York, it is rot the separations of husbands and wives that I wonder at It is a marvel to me how so many of them manage to stay amicably together. The heroes and heroines of matrimony are everywhere. No one sings their praises. History does not immortalize them. Every day they do battle with themselves, with their mates and with circumstances. Yet when they conquer the world calls them happy instead of acclaiming them heroes! Well, I've gotten off my main theme as usual. I controlled my voice, with the effort a frightened woman can always make, and said: "Eric Sands wound rd soldier charming fellow in nef-d of nursing and kindness? Sounds frightfully interesting! But I'm too fond of my own husband to go fishing for the hearts of sick soldiers." "When a woman thinks she is pafest is the very time she can be taken off guard," answered the artist "Forewarned is forearmed. When is your soldier coming?" "Perhaps by the next steamer if he is able to makp it. He will stop with me. I'm counting on Athena Hast and her friends to chirk him up," he answered.

Then some one claimed me for a dance, and I heard no more of Eric. Is he married or still single, I wonder? Is he mere prosperous, poor old chap, than when I knew him? Yet how happy he was with his journalism, his books, his tramping boots, his old pipe and 2 in his pockei his salary for a week! Does he dream I am in New York? But of course not, for we were in Centerville when I wrote him of my marriage. My fear is like the cataract of Niagara. It both draws and repels me. I feel at one moment like running away, and the next like singing wild songs of joy. I am standing on the edge of something. What? (To be continued.)

(.Copyright. 1919, by The Wheeler Syndicate. Tnc.) JUDITH Judith is sometimes confused with Edith because of its similarity of ending, but this is an erroneous contention. It really has its origin in the difficult Northern name of Gyda or Gytha. which, because it. sounds like Gith, the contraction of Eadgyth, are believed to have some connection But. Judith is purely Northern, having belonged to the proud damsel of Hordaland, who refused to marry Herald

Ilarfagre unless he was sole king of all Norway. Lated it was given to the semi-Danish ladles of Earl Godwin's family and melted into Gjutha. Finally Jutta appears as a contraction for Juditha. Judith, according to the old testament, was the heroine of the book of the same name in the Apocyrpha. She was a beautiful Jewess of Bethulia, who, when her town was beseiged by Holofernes, the general of Nebuchadnezzar, attended him in his tent, and when he was in his cups, killed him and cut off his head, whereupon her townsmen fell upon the Assyrians and defeated them with great daughter. Judith has always been a Biblical name. Perhaps because of this courageous deed of the Biblical heroine, Judith

came to mean "praised." Judithe and Juditha are favorite English derivatives. The Italians have a particularly musical version, Giuditta. Judy is a diminutive, used generally as a form of affection, except in the instance of the famous Punch and Judy show. Judith has been beloved by authors, but curiously enough, her name has

been neglected by the poets. There seems to be no noteworthy examples of odes to her, or heroic deeds. But the lack has not discouraged the popularity of her name in England and America, while the harmonious Italian version has great vogue in that country. The jade is Judith's tailsmanic stone. Its milky green depths hold promise of freedom from danger and insure fearlessness in its wearer. It is a curative, according to popular superstition, and hence is believed to ward off disease, and the jinx of bad luck. Tuesday is Judith's lucky day, and 4 her mystic number.

A man will confess to a bad memfry, a bad digestion, and even a bad temper but not one of them will ver admit without a violent struggle that he is guilty of bad judgment. H Isn't funny; it's charming, to see a man or woman of fifty wildly and foolishly in love just the natural explosion, after a long life of bottled-up tentiment.

The meanest woman on earth in 1hse days of prohibition, is the one who looks up fcer hair tonic and her perfume1, at the sound of her husband's key in the latch. Nobody is so patronizingly saintly as the man who has juf-t given up smoking, and the woman who ha3 just grazed through a flirtation without being kissed.

"I was in such an awful condit;on from my twelve yeare of troubles tr.at I had to quit work entirely, but now since I have taken Tanlao. I have gone back to my work and never felt better in my whole life," was the unusual statement made by William A. Quickshank, of Bartonville, 111., recently. ,'"You see, the dampness of the mine had given me the very worst kind of rheumatism," he continued, "that had been troubling me for about twelve years. My elbows hurt me so bad that I coulden't raise my arm as high as my head, and when I sat down to the table I could hardly lift a cup of coffee to my mouth, and my arms and elbows pained me so bad I had to keep them bandaged in all sorts of applications to try and get some re'ief so I could sleep a little at night. My legs also gave me a lot of trouble and at times I could hardly get about, they hurt me so bad. . And this wasn't all my stomach was all out of order, and I was never able to eat anything and enjoy it for thinking about the pains and belching that would bother me for hours after every meal. I didn't have any appetite and fell off in weight terribly, and went about all the time with a dull heavy feeling about me. "This was my condition when I gave up mining coal.f or it was a case of give up or die, and I guess I would have still been in this shape if it hadn't been for a friend who told me about Tanlac and got me to take it. Well, sir, I hadn't taken but a few doses before I could just feel the trouble leaving and my appetite coming back. And now I havn't a trace of rheumatism in my whole body and I don't believe any man can look at me and toil that I ever had it in my life I am eating anything set before me and digesting it without the least bit of trouble, and 1 never have that dull, heavy feeling any more. I sleep fine at night, have been back at work quite a while and am able to mine as much coal aas ever in my life. Whe i I started taking Tanlao 1 weighed at one hundred and fifty-three, and eighteen pourius and now 1 tip the scales at one hundred and fifty-three, and have never felt better before." Tanlao is sold in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite; in Greensfork by C. D. Sominc; in Cambridge City by Mr. T)ean House; in Pershing by Sourbeer Rodenburg: in Centerville by Centerville Pharmacy, and in Milton by V. L. Parkins. Adv.

"Dynamiting" bile out of your system with calomel and other sickening purgatives is ail wrong. Salts, Oil, and Cathartic Waters act by flooding the bowels with the digestive juices which are vital to the stomach. Cascarets are different. They act as a tonic to the bowel muscles, which is the only sensible way to relieve a bilious attack, a sour, acid stomach, or constipated bowels. There is no grilling or inconvenience. You naturally return to regularity and cheerfulness. Cascarets cost very little and they work while you sleep. Adv.

The climate of the Pacific slope from British Columbia on the North to the Mexican border on the South is mild and pleasant all winter, varying in degree of mildness as one journeys North or South.

And ths scenery of the entire trans-Sierra region is so varied with its cloud-crowned peaks, its mountain-born streams, its waterfalls, its flower-carpeted valleys and ocean beaches that no part of it should be missed. En route visit the National Parks, National Monuments, and other winter resorts. See Hawaii, too. Ask for information about Excursion Fares to certain winter resorts.
