Adele Garrison's New REVELATIONS OF A WIFE

tt THEIR SECOND what ii.ppi:m:i w hi; madci: fx)i.ix)Wi:i KATirrs aivici:. When Dicky, irritable with the pain of his pad den mysterious attaelc, a.'ked me if I intended to give him a bath, I had hard work to keep from lauKhin,' outright, he was so ludicrous in his attempted sarcasm. Hut I wisely gave no indication of my amusement. 'Katie pave mo a liniment which she says relieves Jim when he has rheumatism." I explained carefully. "It is to he applied with a brush. Katie says it discolors anything it touches', so I am petting these old bath towel's to protect your clothing." Iicky ignored the explanation. ,Jtheumatism,,, he ejaculated, and his manner of seizin? the word reminded me of the way the puppy he had given me pounced upon a stick to worry it. 'Rheumatism! I suppose you'll he accusing me of havinc: pout next. I haven't any rheumatism. You can just put that in your pipe and smoke it, and if that stuff you pot from Katie is a rheumatism remedy, I won't have any of it on me." "I don't suppose it is a rheumatism remedy," I returned soothingly. "Hut Katie warranted it to relieve a sharp pain in the hack such as you have, fo please let me- put it on." The little devil of pain that was working at my husband's hack evidently gave an extra twist to his torture instruments then, for Dicky raised himself painfully on one elbow and shouted: "Well, for heaven's Fake, put it on! Don't stand there delivering a lecture about it. This isn't any blooming rostrum, yon know." "Loosen your clothing, then, and turn over upon your face so that I can expose your back," I answered quietly. "Do you wish me to help you ?" No." Dicky said shortly Vut after a few moments' struggle, in which the pain he suffered was reflected in his face, he was glad enough to have me come to the rescue. When he was ready, with his face buried In the pillows as If in protest against the whole proceeding, I brought in the dish of mixture and, saturating the brush in it, gave a vigorous swish over his back. With a yell that would have done justice to the traditional old comanche, so dear to the hearts of fiction dabblers, Dicky shot upward and cut of the bed, upsetMnpr the dish of liniment in his sudden movement and sending its contents over hir, back and legs. "You're burning me alive!" he howled with a string of expletives such as I had never before heard from his lips in his angriest moments, "What is that blasted stuff anyway?' He stopped long enough to sniff. "Why. you blooming Idiot, it's turpentine!" he raved. "If I hadn't had my face in the pillows I would have smelled it. Quick! Get something to stop this burning; the stuff blisters. Get some olive oil and bandages quick, and then send for a doctor. Of all the " I did not wait to hear the end of his sentence, but, frenulnely frightened, flew down the stairs, meeting

"Oh, it is good to be home!" said a returned soldier boy. "After all, there is nothing like the good old United States. Since I've been across the water I love everything here better than ever before: I love the very streets, and shop windows that I never looked into before. Perhaps one reason I like the shop windows is because they are full of the hats and gowns that American girls wear ah, now I've said it "There is no girl in all the world like the American girl- She is the test and the brightest, the pretti"t. the most entertaining and the most practical of all the girls in the whole world. "Those French girls talk so much about their charms, it is true, but not for the American boy; all the boys over there agreed with me about that." And then I asked the enthusiastic t oy in khaki if he had any idea how much work American girls have! been doinc during the last year I knitting and sewing, selling Liberty bonds, giving days and weeks of thir time in all kinds of war work, j The Red Crcs can never estimate J what it owes to the enthusiasm and devotion of American girls. All ( over the country they have been at work with such enthusiasm and efficiency as could be found nowhere else, you may be sure of that. Nothing has been too hard for them to do. for their enthusiasm carried them "over the top," no matter what difficulties they had to overcome. Ilushiervs Makes Them Finer. Aside from the war work, how many thousands and hundreds of thousands of girls have gone out from the sheltering home roof to work for those who were dependent upon the boys who had gone to the front.

Katie half way. She was pale with fripht, and had evidently been running. Which Physiican ?' "Oh, Meesis Graham!" she gasped. "I make me vun big meestake, give you wrong bottle. Jim. he say dot stuff burn like hell. Did you put it on yet?" "Yes." I returned shortly, for I was In no amiable mood toward Katie, "and Mr. Graham if. badly burned. Dring me the olive oil as quickly as you can." She went down the stairs two steps at a time, and was back with the olive oil by the time I had sorted out absorbent cotton and bandages. I looked carefully at and even tasted the olive- oil to be sure that I did not make any other mistake, and then hurried back to Dicky. He was walking the fioor, evidently in torture, but there was no sign of the inability to use his muscles that had been his before I applied Katie's remedy. Evidently the pain of the burns had driven the other lesser malady away. "Sure you haven't got carbolic acid this time?" he demanded unpleasantly as I entered. "I just tasted the olive oil to be sure the label is ripht." I replied. "Now if you'll lie down, I'll do the best I can for you." He obeyed without further comment, and I fairly flooded his back with the soothing oil and bandaged It well. I could tell from his breathing and the look on his face that the treatment was relieving the pain of his burns, and my fear that I had done him some terrible injury lessened. When I had finished I spoke quietly. "Which physician do you wish me to call. Dicky?" "Nobody," he returned sulkily, and turned his face to the wall. "Forgive Me, Sweetheart." I sat down by the window and looked out over the winter landscape, my heart heavy, my eyes full of tears. It seemed as though Dicky's boorishness had drawn a murky veil across the wonderful days we had spent together since our reconciliation. Dicky must have called me twice before T heard him, so absorbed was I in my own bitter reflections. When his voice did strike my consciousness it had entirely lost the rude, angry note which had so hurt me. "Too disgusted to speak to me, dear?" he said contritely. I hurried over to the bed and sat down beside him. "Truly. T didn't hear you. Dicky," I said. "What can I do for you?" "Forgive me if you can, sweetheart," he returned. "I know I've been seventeen kinds of swine in this business, but there isn't any excuse for me. I just let that devil of a temper of mine pet the hettT of me again, that's all. Iut if you could forgive me " Dicky's voice was full of the luring love lilt that had first won me, that never fails to capture me anew whenever he chooses to use it. Woman-like. I forgot all his harshness and rudeness and crept into his arms. never be written without a great many pages devoted to the splendid work of American womanhood and always and ever the girls have been to the fore. Who has not seen these girls out in the rain and sleet and snow during the winter, selling war stamps, and doing it with such grace and good will that one could only buy and bless the young saleswoman as he passed along. And not alone in th out-of-door world, but at home, the American eirls have taken upon themselves the duty and delight of cheering the lonely hearths from which our boys have been gone, and by their good cheer and ever-present thoughtfulness they have done their best to make up for the alienee of thos--who make the home dear. When it comes to home-making and the good cher of home, no o;.e can compete with the American girl. She knows how to keep everything bright, how to rest the weary by her never-failing fund of good humor, and when the evening- lights are burning she is ready with music and song and story and lively chat to break the dull monotony whb'h comes from the heart that H unable to feel itself while with every hat the: is a stifled note of anxiety. We have had for years row a ast army of young American girls wh' are bread-winners. You see them In every office and in every fhop. from even" dark corner of a place where work is iroin-: on, some competent friendly' younc faro looks out at the visitor and looks quite at home. too. Her work in every branch of industry and business has not spoiled the American girl as a home-maker. She is the same delightful sweetheart that she was when she ha; no vuy .of earning her bread but

i y housework, sewing or school eachlng. The business girl. I have often remarked, when she marries makes the best wife and homemaker that can be found anywhere. Who does not appreciate breakfast and dinner on time And what a joy It is to see the tatle set, whether by servant or the mistress of the house, with the order and good taste which comes from tho'-ghtful-ness. She Stands Alone. The girl who has been going in and out at her daily work for years appreciates the comparative freedom of her own home, and the sunny nature of the American girl thrives and grows in the home atmosphere. She Is ready for the storm, she is able to ope with any

situation of difficulty and even of, danger, but how she blossoms in the joy and happiness of home life! I agree with the boy in khaki, and all of his fellows, for they all have the same tale to tell, in their pride and appreciation for the American girl. Go where you will in the round world, you will not find her equal. Surely she has proved herself worthy of thf American boy who has given himself to his enemy shrdlu u given himself to his country. Of course, they're alike, and one worthy of the other. The brief impression of foreign life will only add to the appreciation every one of the re turned heroes has for the life at ! home. Of course, we may learn something from the old world, its manners and customs have been formed by the centuries, and we have inherited the best of them, and made some of them over to suit ourselvs. but nothing the old world has to offer can compete with the American girl.
