Chapters From a Woman's Life Jane Phetpt

Chapter 8 A few days after my visit to the studio Walter waa very late for dinner, come thing quite unusual - with him, as he never worked late in the afternoon. It was nearly 8 o'clock when he came in, the dinner quite spoiled. Where in the world have you been, dear?" I asked. "Dinner won't be fit to eat" It was a glorious night in May and I had planned to motor after dinner. . , "I drove Helen home and it was bo wonderful I took a run into the country." "All alone?" "Of course not! I took Helen, then let her at home. The country Is gloriously beautiful just now; we must take & long ride Sunday, take our luncheon and stay all day. Now let's eat! I'm starved." This was Walter's gay lnconsequen tlal way. It was the natural thing for

htm. He had taken someone else rid

ing; it had been a lovely night, and he

had remained out never thinking that his wife was waiting; that I might have enjoyed a ride. Then, Just as carelessly, he planned, a nice long day with me. It always disarmed me

when he did a thing like this; he certainly couldn't care anything for anyone else and be so quickly interested in doing something with me So al

though I felt resentful, I only said: "Don't you think I would have en

Joyed being with you? I had planned

for a ride tonight."

"Im too tired to drive any more tonight Been running the car since 4

o clock. It s a bird!"

I said no more but told Jennie to put dinner on. She had been put out because it was late, had looked and

acted disagreeable. But the moment

Walter epcko to her she, brightened. He had a way no woman seemed able

to resist, when he was undisturbed

The dinner wasn't good, ' but he found no fault, and bantered Jennie a little bit about spoiling her chance tc

go out with her beau. She blushed

and smiled and told him it didn't matter, she could go out another evening.

I felt like shaking her. Before he oamo in she had twice reminded me

that it was her night off. Claire came in about 9 o'clock.

"I had the blues so thought I'd run

over and deposit them on your door

step, or your piano!" she said laugh ing. :

"Get married, Claire! That's the

best, cure for blues I know of," Walter said. "It seems to work with you two perhaps I'll try it some day after 1 have observed you a little longer. A new broom sweeps clean, you know That's a dandy roadster you've bought. Walter, Just built for two, so I don't buppose I'll be asked to ride in it." "Why not? Doreen won't mind if I give you a spin." ' "No indeed!" I hastened to say. "Name a day and I'll make Walter call for you when he leaves the studio Then he can bring you home with him for dinner." "Fine!" Walter exclaimed. "Any day you say, Claire." ' "I'll call you at the studio some morning next week if I may," she returned. We played cut throat for an hour and then Walter walked home with Claire. She lived very near us7 When he came in I said: "You didn't mind my saying you'd take Claire for a ride, did you?" He was easily upset, very easily dis

pleased at anything that looked like

managing him "bossing he called It

"No, Claire's a good sort, although

she's plain."

"We never shall agree upon what

makes a woman good-looking," I re

plied. "I think Claire's bright intelli

gent face far more attractive, even though her features are irregular, than a doll-faced beauty with big eyes and a perfect nose."

"You are hopelessly practical, Doreen. Sometimes I wonder how 1 came to fall in love with you." . His eyes twinkled. "Law of opposites, my dear," I re

turned laughing.

Long after he slept I lay awake thinking of him; of Helen Ralstrom,

of the time he spent with her and that

she had selected the car, still a very sore point with me, although I had not yet mentioned it to Walter. To Be Continued

UNREASONABLE DOWRY

HUNTER LOSES BRIDE

AT HOUR OF NUPTIALS

(By Associated Press) LODZ, Poland, Nov. 28. Dowry bidding for a bride figured in a recent wedding at the border town of Bialystok, according, to news brought here by guests returning from the nuptials. At the hour fixed for the ceremony, the bridegroom failed to put in an appearance. The young bride, her attendants and the guests whiled awa7 a long period of waiting with dances and conversation .Finally, at 11 p. m., a message arrived from the missing principal, saying 1 he would conclude the marriage only on condition that the dowry were increased 50 per cent For a time it looked as if there would be no wedding, and the guests prepared to depart. But the day was saved when one of the young men present rose to the occasion by announcing he would marry the young lady without the "bonus" demanded. His offer was accepted and the wedding took place.

The original bridegroom, having un

dergone a change of heart, appeared Just as the benediction was being pronounced but was, of course, obliged

to return home a bachelor.

Heart Problems

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a girl of age and am deeply in love with a boy of my age. There is another boy

who loves me and asked me to go to

a show with him. I like the first boy

better. Should I go with the second or not? Should a girl always answer a boy's letter. Is it all right to walk home with a boy arm in arm? SWEETHEART. Unless you are engaged to the first young man, I would advise you to accept the invitation to go to a show. It is not necessary to answer a letter if you wish to drop the correspondence. It is not correct to walk arm in arm with a young man.

War of Independence, was awarded by

his creditors enough money to buy a

printing business in Printing House Square, where he experimented, not

very successfully, with a method of printing books from types of complete

words. In 185 he started The Times,

first called The Daily Universal Register, chiefly by way of advertising

his "logographic system. He never lost faith in his system,

which won the approval of the inge

nious Benjamin Franklin. But the in

elusion of the great American's name

in the list of subscribers proved Walter's undoing. He sent the complete

font to Buckingham Palace, hoping for the king's inspection and approval; but his majesty had seen Frank

A shout from the grass screen at the shore called attention to the fact that the aucks were already dead as wood. A strong north wind made the four decoys, which belonged to M. Ross, Merrill merchant, look unusually lifelike on the crest of the waves. The two duck hunters ducked.

No membership campaign for the Red Cross will be held In Richmond this year, it is announced. Contributors o the Community Chest automatically become members of the Red Cross. The Community Chest does not include the county, however, so a membership campaign will be conducted outside the city. Mrs. A. R. Jones, of Hagerstown, has been appointed to direct the membership campaign. Township represent atives will be announced later.

A Christmas seal sale is also to be

held in Wayne county outside the city

of Richmond it is announced, since the public health work in the county is financed partly by the sale from the seals. Both campaigns 'are to be conducted together. Work County-wide. The work of the Red Cross is coun

ty-wide. Its activities are carried on as much for the county outside the city as for the city itself. During the past year the public health nurse in the county outside of the city was fi

nanced by the Red Gross, the expense

being 613.

Relief work for soldiers and their

families in the entire county amounted to $5,314. Since the population of the county is equally divided between the

city and county outside the county share lor the work is $2,657. A total of $3,271 has been expended outside the city, reports show. , The dollar for membership in the Red Cross will be divided equally between , the . national and local . Red Cross. ' The local share will be used only for work outside the city.

There is always a reason for a difference in Furniture prices. That which costs very little is usually worth less than it costs. A cheaper article of unskilled workmanship and poor finish will never give the pleasure and satisfaction to which you are entitled. The reputation of our establishment was not lightly made, but is the result of more than three score years of 'business building, and we are gratified, indeed, when our friends tell us that the name "Grothaus" is a guarantee of excellence. We are showing a stock of Dining Room Furniture in the different period designs, such as Sheraton, Chippendale, Louis XVT, Queen Anne, Italian and Colonial. Our displays of "Gift Furniture" are always of interest and worthy of special mention. Ferd Grothaus 614-616 Main Street Established 1855
