Revelations My Heart and

BY ADELE GARRISON

WHAT ALICE HOLCOMIli: ASKOP MADGE t "What really happened?" Alice ( Holrombe locked the door behind j her, and put her lips to my ear btfore she whispered the words. I "I don't know anything." I whisp red back, streKFinp the verb, j "Hut yi i suspect. Tell me. I've been on pins and needles ever since I I heard the story. Ken Storkbridge : isn't as awkward as that. He must have broken that bowl on purpose. And he did it from what I deduced while Milly was serving you fruit punch. There's only one answer to that." "I am afraid you have it." I said sombrely. She put her hand to her heart with an involuntary, unconscious gesture. Her face was white with horror, save for two hectic splashes of color in her cheeks. "Poor Milly: Poor Ken!" she murmured brokenly. "I was afraid it would come to something like ' f hie T h :i v fff thit tViii x u nr than half-insane, and distinctly dangerous for a long time. Rut poison " The word was so low that I knew it was inaudible outside the room, but I couldn't repress a frightened exclamation. "Hush!" I said. "Don't say that a .tain." A Swift Change "You Hie right." she returned contritely. "Indeed. I shall never reI icr to tnis episode again. Hut you. we. all of us, must be on our guard ( from now on, now that we know of j what her poor brain is capable. ; Tell me one thing, did she mean to I include both you and Ken " she broke off abruptly then began again impatiently. "What I'm getting at is I whether you think Ken is in any I danger." I hesitated before I replied, at the memory of Milly Stockbridge's face when she said to her husband: "Certainly, if you wish it." "I don't think he is in danger from any deliberate plan." I said at last. "Hut. of course, if lie angers her " "He will never do that." she spoke with decision. "He is angelic tenderness itself to her.'.' She turned away and busied herself with her wraps. When next she spoke I hardly knew her voice so charged it was with bitterness. "Did you ever know it to fail," she demanded, "that an utterly worthless woman will have double, triple, aye a hundred times her share of love and tenderness lavished on her, while other " She stopped short as if some one had wiped the words from her lips. "It's a good thing you don't pay Winifred Black A Problem I have a friend, a frood woman, a sweet woman and a clever woman. Her husband is unfaithful to her, and I think I ought to tell her about it. It seems to be so tragic for her to waste her unselfish devotion upon one so unworthy of her. What would you do stani Idly by and see a good woman throw her life away upon an unworthy husband, or open her ey ; to the truth, .and then help her to get over It all?

any attention to my ravings." she said lishtly. Here, let me help you on with your cloak. What a vision you are! Your husband ought to e the prouJi gentleman to be taking you home. I suppose poor old Donkey Donkers i trembin; in his shoes for fear I'll propose to him on the way home. Do you know, every time that man opens his mouth I expect to hear a bray? Fac" The Final Picture Her voice, her eyes, dared me to remember anything she had inadvertently betrayed. I took her cue instantly, the while my heart ached for her, the mate fashioned for Kenneth Stock bHdire, who must stand helplessly aside and watch the wreck of his life and happiness. "I hail the same feeling myself when 1 was listening to him tonight," I laughed. "He certainly would win the endurance medal i a conversational match, wouldn't he?" "If it were given for long-winded-ness. yes." she retorted, opening the door and sweeping down the stairs, Ing taxi the three figures were silhigh to meet the reluctant suspicion with which ponderous Mr. Donkers invested his escort. With her husband's arm around her, Milly Stockbridge went through her good-by to us almost as mechanically as a well trained parrot would have done. She looked at Dicky and Alice Holcombe, but never once raised her eyes to meet mine. "I am afraid the evening has been too much for Mrs. Storkbridge." Dicky said sympathetically. "Oh no," her husband replied brightly, "she will be all right tomorrow. Hut she isn't strong, is extremely nervous, and my unlucky accident to her cherished punch bowl upset her terribly. It is all my fault." "No, no!" his wife murmured half-hystcrically, shrinking closer to him. I saw him soothe her with a touch as he put out his other hand to Alice Holcombe. "Run over tomorrow, Alice, can you?" he asked casually. "Milly says she wishes to see you." "Of course." Alice Holcombe promised carelessly. "Good-nieht, Milly." She put her lips lightly to the cheek of the woman who had robbed her of the greatest .blessing earth held for her. As Dicky ahd 1 vent down the steps to our waiting1 taxi the three figures wre silhouetted in the light of the electric porch lamp. The man, the wife, the faithful friend to therfi both. 1 couldn't repress a little shiver at the hopelessness of the situation. How would it all end? Writes About: of "Telling i she a little creature who will ! weep and storm and upbraid, just and 1 let it go at that? Is J?he a person who has any kind of life of her own that she would like to live Is she giving that life up because she Is blindly devoted to a man who deceives her Has sheT pride, self-respect, selfreliance, truth, courage, honor?

(should turn out to be untrue? Are

!ou sure about it? S is the man really in love with the affinity? ! Will he stay in love with her, CO ! you think? i What sort of a fellow is he, any- ' way, worth while in any other way 'at all? Oould You Help lUm? Maybe you could help him out of a mtseraDie muciaie u you ?poKe to him instead of his wife you say you are a friend of both. Perhaps he's tired of the fTair already, and just wants an excuse to tell his wife all about it and bo forgiven. What would I want you to do tor me in such a case? 1 would want you to tell me quick. I don't want to waste my life "pretending." I'r rather live alone or a desert island, with the buzzards for company, than to pour out my heart to one who deceived me. I'd rather scrub floors for a living than take one penny from a man who couldn't tell me the truth, the wnoie truth and nothing but the trutn. Yes, I can see how a woman might hesitate before she left a man who is the father of her children, not orlv for the children's sake, but Tor her own. a cet lazy, they get selfish, they get material as they grow old- .. i kuow women who were once decent, self-respecting beings who live now with men, and pretend to love them, and they hate the very ground those men walk on. ana live a lie from one dreadful day's end to the other. All a Great Puzzle. I might be one of those women I might prefer ease, quiet, comfortable deceit to honest misery and desperate courage but I'd want the chance to choose. Yes, it is a responsibility. I don't advise you to tell the woman and I don't advise you not to tell her. Think it over, put yourself in her place, with her disposition, and then do what you think is best. Of course, there are many who agree with your mother. Perhaps they are right, I can't say, but really nowadays women are expected to have a right to know these things and act according to their eonscience about them. Just as that good mother of yours if ever her generation really respected the woman who shut her eyes to her husband's "goings on" just because it was the easiest way out of an uncomfortable position. It is all a great puvzle, isn't it? That the Peace Conference approved a war upon Mexico to be declared after the election of the next American president, it is a statement made by Prof. Frederick Starr.
