I love him becnuselie is so unselfish and thinks so much of those who aro dear to him. and I fnow. too. thfet lie loves me and would feel badly hurt were I to give him up. At times, howetr, I think two years a long time for a girl to wait for a man who is younger than she. Will vou kindly tell me what you think of it? NAN. Two years mi*ht ho a long time to wait if the retard were uncertain. But the man yoi describe is, though young in years, fine and stable in character. Tho difference in age is so slight that Itik not worth stressing. Be a pal and a partner and work along together. This will make the time of waitin* seem less diflicult, if It does not actially vsh lrten it. Blanche: 1 may be that he does not want te Understand.

My Marriage Problems Adel* Garrison's New Phase of “Revelations of a Wife” (Copyright 1122) — - - ■ ■ --S The Reason Madge Registered Faith in Harry Underwood. I suppose my terror for Katherine must have showed in my face, for Harry Underwood put out his hand and grasped my arm as if to save me from falling. "Nil No!" he said emphatically, keeping Iris voice at a low pilch, how ever. "Nothing has happened to her, and nothing is going to happen if 1 don't get mine first. But that doesut' . relievo Lil of blame. Curse it all, what's the matter witli her. any-1 way? I should think it would bo enough for her to risk her own life the way she does without sending other women less experienced than she is into the mess." "She never sends any one where she wouldn't go herself." I flared, all my spirit rushing to Lillian's defense. "Don't I know that as well as you( do?” he retorted. "Nobody ever doubted Lll's bravery, or her resource fulness. That's just it. She's so preternaturally clever, and so absolu tely' fearless lierself that she doesn't judge other women by any other measuring stick." It was a curious thing to me to hear this unconscious note of awc-d respect for Lillian in the voice and words of i he man who had trented her so abom inably. Hut 1 was too full of another question to dwell upon the thought, und I spoke quickly, eagerly: Hut you haven't told me how you knew what Katherine was—in any danger. I—thought—that—” "Canny even yet, aren't you?" lie mocked with his brilliant black eyas fixed mirthfully upon me. "Aren't going to give away to the bold bad man who can't be trusted, just whet* little Kutrinka is?" "you know I didn't mean that," 1 protested, fearing that 1 laid meant just what he said, but knowing in my heart that the feeling was an Injustice to Harry Underwood. "But you know I am not supposed—" "Right at This ratal.’’ "Sure thing,” he assented prompt ly and soothingly. "That s the proper caper. Keep your little secrets while 1 tell 'em to you. But just get this Into your noddle—dearest Katherine is in the house to which a certain gifted ulien gentleman answering to the name of Joe, has been taken t© recover from an accident near Sag Harbor a while ago. Joe had been snooping around a certain farmhouse, putting the hoodoo sign on a serving maid named Katie— "Incidentally,” his eyes hardened, "you'll have to watch that girl. She's faithful to the death and eternity and all of that, of course, but this Joe, if he recovers, is sure bad medicine where she is concerned. He's got the higli sign on her somewhere—I have a suspicion where, but I'm not sure,, although I think you are.” He shot a keen glance at me, but I looked back at him imperturbably, and he gave a short little laugh. "Got a sort of poker face yourself, haven't you, old dear?” he gibed. "But that's neither here nor yet there just now.

And Joe be came so devoted to her that he in sisted upon having no one else when his supposed employers took him home. “Right at this point.” he grinned, “is demonstrated the superiority ^jf mind over matter. If I'd been run* ning that show—that ts, if 1 had been on the other side—a nurse of my own selection, a .trusted tool, would have gone with Joe. But those poisoned pups are ivory solid from the neck up, and they fell for Herbie's scheme, which, of course, whs old Hi's. When I first heard of the wonderful nurse to whom Joe was so devoted I smelled a rat, and l made it my business to get an early lamp at her. And, of cuurse, I recognized her at once.” “I Believe—” / "Dal she sec you?” I asked breath lessly, for, indeed, I whs overwhelmed by the wealth of intimate knowledge ho had of the movements of the gang which Lillian and Allen Drake and my father were tracking. He indeed must have spoken only the truth when he once had described himself as a sort of “glorified stool pigeon.” ' "Not so that anybody jcould no tice:” lio retorted. "Knowledge of that sort would only send her off her trol ley. She wouldn't be able to act as naturally as she dors now, although site's a cagy little dame and you’ve got to slip it to her. But she'd proba bly spec-ulato a* you do. whether there may not l>e a poHaihility that old Harry may do the traitor act, after all.” ■ There was so srenutc a note of bit terness in his last words that any wavering doubts of him 1 may have had tied away. With a quick, impul sive ntovement I stretched out my hand to him. "Please do not say that again,” 1 pleaded. ' I believe In your sincerity absolutely.” Ilaz.ir mid Tea.

Th« Fox family — Tommy, his father, hjs mother—were all night prowlers. And so were oil their cousins and uncles nnd aunts. The whole Fox clan took their sleep in the daytime. The night—so they be lieved— was made for taking other things, sucli as a hen, or a turkey, or a meadow mouse. Tommy Fox's father kept the latest hours of nil the Fox tribe.

It was <jueer to hear Mr. Fox and old Mr. Crow greet each other, when they happened to meet at that time of day. Mr. Crow would bu harrying to the cornfield for hi* breakfast, after a long sleep since the evening h*fore. And catching sight of Tommy Fox's father skulking towards the buck pasture, where he. lived, Mr. i 'row would bawl In his loudest tones, "Good morning, Mr. Fox"' To that greeting Mr. Fox never failed to make the same reply: "Good night, sir:" Somehow, that answer always an gered Mr..

It must he confessed that Mr. Crew liked to call his neighbors' attention to Mr. Fox's late arrival for break fast. That was the reason why, when j he called good morning to Mr. Fox. he always squalled so loudly, He wanted the world to know that the iiifflqnly Mr. Fox had stayed out the whole night long, and was just get ting home. But that sort of tiling never both ered Mr. Fox In the least Tf the truth must be told he often went out of his way in order to meet Mr. Crow and exchange greetings with him. He knew that the old gentleman would certainly fly Into a rage. And Mr. Fox loved to tease people. Now, when Mr. Crow' lost his tern per so early, he was sure to II ml that things went wrong all day. His breakfast never tasted quite ns it should. His best frionds all quarreled with him. Everyone in Pleasant Yal ley tried to keep out of ilia way. And tilts last was the hardest of till to hear. For old ^tr. Crow loved to gos sip. And every gossip knows that there's no fun in gossiping a kmc. In fact, they say it can't be done. At last Mr. Crow mule us liis mind ihat he mustn't hare a dispute with air. Vox before hteukfast. "I’ll yield," Mr. Crow derideU. “I ll let him have his way. After this, when I see him i'll Call, ’Good night" And theft there won't t*e itny more trouble." The very next day Mr. Crow met Mr. Vo* at the usual early bout. "Good night, Mr. Vos'." the old gentleman squawked. Though he was surprised. Tommy Vox's father never let Mr. Crow know It. "Good morning, sir!" he replied "Well, Mr. Crow almost squalled hi* head off. He was furious ‘I tried to agree with him; hut'it's impossible,'1 he told everybody who would listen (o him. "I tqtoko to him in the friendliest manner. And ho was very, very Impertinent.” "What did Mr. Vox say to you?” asked Mr. Crow's cousin, Jx*|>er Jay. "He said, ‘Good morning, sir" " "Well!

B ARMOUR 255 Neville Block — Second Floor AT UnV« RRTtt 16th and Haro ay There’s a Difference In Health Breads t THERE'S bound to be a difference when so vital a part of the grain as the wheat germ is baked into one loaf and left out of another. For the germ cbntains proteins, mineral salts and vitamins — foods that are needed most by the digestive system. Burns’ WHEAT TONE HEALTH BREAD does contain the wheat germ. The fact that we have installed a special flour mill in our bakery assures this to you. Here we mill the flour for WHEAT TONE fresh every day, seeing to it that ALL of the wheat is used. By this special milling process WHEAT TONE is also made to contain all of the coarse,' laxative bran. The wheat germ builds up and strength* ens, the bran regulates. WHEAT TONE flour contains 100r{ of the wheat berry and WHEAT TONE Health Bread contains no added white flour. Thus the milling of our own flour assures you of the germ and all of the bran, making WHEAT TONE a different, better health bread.
