Chapters From a Woman's Life By Jane Phelps
THE END OF THE VACATION Chapter 66 I was anxious to go home, was counting the days. I was unreasonably perhaps, but poignantly jealous of Vashtl Vernon. - It -was a different jealousy too than that I had felt because of Helen Ralstrom, because Miss Vernon was one of us, an educated refined girl lacking the commonness so patent in Helen. She seemed absoiutely oblivious that her actions might make talk or distress me, however. She was a flattered, petted girl, rather spoiled at home I judged. She was pccompanied by a maiden aunt, and a F'-pr-eh maid; neither of whom seemed
Heart Problems
Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am a married woman of 20 and have been married four years. We have a baby aged three years. The first part of my married life my husband was good to me, but he has grown indiffeient. My husband makes such a small salary, hardly enough to pay our debts. He often takes part of the money we have to pay out and spends it, but I never seen anything that he buys with it. Then I have to meet the collectors at the door and tell them that I have not the money. If I say anything about it to him he cusses mo and abuses me terribly, which hurts me and I can't help crying. He goes off every night and stays until 9:30 or 10 o'clock. The baby and I have to stay alone. I am doing all my housework, washing and all, and I don't even get thanks for it. He says that I don't need any pleasure at all. He never takes me out to have pleasure as he used to and he is getting to b eterrible. I don't know what to do. I hate to leave him on account of the baby. We are both crazy about him. What would you advise me to do? BROKEN-HEARTED MOTHER. Lack of money month in and month out is enough to make any one's nerves ragged. Doubtless that is what makes your husband act so. If he had more income so that he could enjoy a few luxuries he would be more indulgent to you and want you to have pleasures, too. The only thing is to look at matters from his point of view
to have any authority over her, as she followed her own inclinations continually. I felt that I would almost welcome Helen again, so sure was I that this girl was the more dangeous of the two. Helen had written Walter asking him if he would need her upon his return, as another artist, having seen his pictures, wished her to pose for him. He had gone into a comical sort of a rage over her letter. He found a good model, then as soon as his back was turned someone tried to steal her. And so on. "But the girl has her living to earn," I told him. "Don't I know that! I supose I fhould have paid her while I was away.
But I hadn t decided what I should do next wasn't sure L should need her. I'll telegraph her. She's temperamental enough to do anything," and before I could say any more he was off to the
telegraph office. "What did you tell her?" I asked upon his return. "Told her I wanted her, would be back soon." My heart sank. I had so hoped our going away would rid him of her and her influence. "You are going to paint her again?" "Yes, she's my model. I'll show those fellows they can't play me any tricks." He was so upset Miss Vernon noticed it and asked the cause. He told her, describing Helen's beauty, her merit as a model. "Supose you make a sketch of me, it may calm you," she said laughingly. "Just the thing! I'll start at once," and he got out his materials, and placing her in a good light, he commenced to sketch. I almost groaned aloud. What little time he had devoted to me would not be given to sketching Miss Vernon. But there was nothiag I could do. So I sat by and pretended to be interested. The sketch was nearly finished, we were to start for home in a few days much to my relief, as Walter seemed to be hopelessly enthralled by Miss Vernon, when all my jealousy, my fears were dispelled because of the appearance on the scene of a dainty little blonde from Pittsburgh. Walter finished the sketch, but I could see it was an effort. It kept him from Dairy Borden. Had my vacation not been spoiled by his flirtation I could have laughed at
t vf Jtne hole thing. But I was hurt, disJou have the worst of it, but that is1 . . . . ,
a wife and mother's lot.
You will gain absolutely nothing by complaining to your husband or even telling him about disagreeable matters such as collectors. Talk about the cunning things the baby does, current events you have read, or anything that is cheerful or interesting. Let your husband pour out his difficulties if he wants to. because your shoulders are broader than his lb bear such things. If possible, have more people at your home. It will do you and your husband good to mix with other young couples. He has his interests in the evening, but that is no reason why he should not have friends at home poo3 u a.vEo; una no.C jo ujoq ejaq.w time. Don't wait for people to invite you: take the initiative and invite them. A hospitable home is enjoyed as much by the members of the family as by the callers. When the collectors come, tell them they will have to see your husband. It will do him good to settle such matters and may teach him what a difficult time you have to get along. Above all, love your husband and trv to appreciate him for the good in him. He is the same man you married, but circumstances have driven you apart and you have forgotten to apply the charms which attracted him to you. When you are tired from the babv, too much work and lack of recreation, it is a lot to expect you to do everything to keep harmony and !ove. You will find, however, that a cheerful and loving attitude on your part will make a new man of your husband. Have faith in him and encourage him to believe in his future. If he thinks vou believe he will advance in business it will do a great deal to make him more ambitious and a better worker. How fortunate it is that he loves his little son so much, because that is a factor which will draw you closer together.
appointed, had been unhappy because of his attentions to Miss Vernon. An old French proverb that I had somewhere read came into my mind: "The perfect test of woman's charm is to attract no attention, but to retain the attention once given." Vashti Vernon had attracted attention and had failed to hold it. We would be going too soon for Miss Borden to have much opportunity. I was surprised to see that Miss Vernon seemed to realize her reign over -Walter was ended, for no sooner had he turned to Daisy Borden, raved of her blonde loveliness, than she turned up with a new arrival, flaunting him in front of Walter, acting as if he and he only existed for her. Walter showed a bit of chagrin at first, then seemed to be relieved. While I, puzzled, unable to change my view point so quickly, looked on wondering
if ever I would understand this inconsequential man I had married, this lovable boy who was so provoking at times, and who never semed to realise any responsibilities. In three days we started for home. But those three days were devoted wholly to Miss Borden. I spent them alone. Was it any wonder that I was glad to go, anxious to get back? My vacation had been not like a wedding trip. It indYe nearly resembled a nightmare. (To Be Continued)

A Lesson in Business Geography Those who live in PORTLAND, MAINE, may drink a brand of coffee that has a local sale. Those who live in PORTLAND, Oregon, may never have heard of it. In SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTES, a locally sold coffee may be somewhat popular. In SPRINGFIELD, Ohio, it is unknown. Citizens of ST. JOSEPH, MICHIGAN, may drink a blend that is in fair demand in that locality. To the folks of ST. JOSEPH, MISSOURI, it means nothing. BUT go anywhere in this good old U. S. A. and say "CHASE and SANBORN'S SEAL BRAND," and every one in that town who knows anything about coffee will say, "That's the lodge I belong to."
