. A .iWifeWl Con&ssionilr The Trick Which Jerry Ticer Plays on Madge My promise to Lillian that I would mum and take a nap while she al so slept was one that I deemed far better broken than kept. I was too excited to he sleepy, but I knew she wns so fatigued that in all probahil IIv she was already asleep. My going hack into the room would only waken her so I decided to stay outdoors with the children when I should have found them. When I first stepped Into the door yard. however there was no trace of them to he seen. I gazed searchingly sround lawn and garden, barnyard and orchard, then lifted my eyes to the distant hill slope, which Is the farmer's first charm. Just emerging from the cedars which top It came the little procession for which I was watching. With the thrill at my heart which the sight of my small son's happiness always brings me 1 began to walk swiftly toward the hill. I met them half way, so slow and secjate was the progress ‘of "l<ady'' the old and decrepit horse beloved as much by Marion and Jun ior as by her owner, Jerry Ticer. 0 Jerry, hired by Lillian to give the children an afternoon of horseback riding, bad the pride of his office in every line of his flgurs as he walked at “Lady's” head holding her bit that she might not stum ble unwarily and unseat Junior. My man-child sitting stiffly erect with his small heels drumming “Lady's" sides and his arms rigidly holding the bridle reins was the most ador able figure imaginable—to my per ceptions at least. Marlon trudged by “Lady’s" side close to Junior, .her eyes watching him so closely that frequently she stumbled upon the un even path, though always righting herself with the-ability of children to keep their feet under conditions that would send an adult aprawllng. The Exuberance of Childhood. When I met them I turned and fell Into place beside Marlon, slipping my hand beneath her elbow to Insure her remaining on her feet. She raised a shining face to mine. "Oh, Auntie Madge!’’ she gurgled. “There nevfr was such a good time as we have had. Do you know I kneeled down on ‘Lady's’ hack and rode, and Jerry aaya I ought to be able to stand up on her back pretty soon." “I can stand up on her back now.' Junior piped up, excitedly. "Want to see me?" He drew one plump foot upward, while I darted behind Marion and seized him. At the same moment Jer ry stopped the horse abruptly. "Jerry," I said sharply, for my smal 1 lad's sudden movement had frightened me, "what have you been teaching these children? These things are dangerous. Mrs. Underwood would never permit "Don't get excited. Mis' Graham,” Jerry' advised advised with the un conscious impudence of his type, "I hain't let the kids do nuthin' dan geous. I always hold on to Junior when he stands up on 'Lady.' He's safer than he Is sitting down while Marion there don't need nobody. She can keep her balance anywhere. Be sides 'I>ady,‘ she's just as stiddy as a rock. Uook at her broad back. You couldn't fall off her If you tried.I tell you what Mis’ Graham, why t-\ COLOR CUT-OUTS Three Spinners y-—--/ A NEW GOWN This Is the second day's chapter of the fsmous fairy tale. "The Three Spinners' Children who follow this story and cut out the pictures every day will have a complete set of “Three Spinners’’ dol's. • • • The mother of the lazy girl, about whom you read yesterday, worked hard and made a pretry dress for her. It was becoming and the girl knew that she loeked beautiful In It. After this she was lazier than ever. But one day the mother completely lost patience with her lazy daughter and gave her a good beating. The girl was not too lazy to cry, and this she did so loudly that she could be heard out In the street. "Now, will you work?" asked the mother, but the lazy girl only cried the louder. (This is the pretty dress that the mother spun and dyed for her un grateful daughter. Color it a soft shade of tan with red dots and make the cap of tan. Cut along the dotted llnea for the girl's face to show through. Save the dress for this Is what the girl will want to wear when something exciting happens to her In tomorrow's story). _ (Copyright, 1S25). -■imj ii!s»ii»siinui-a.jism.fv ft' ‘■v:ril°yn-1 dnn'l you try her yourself’ Then you'll see how easy she sets, just like a rocking ehalr. " There was a gleam In his e> es which should h#t e warned me, hut the children gleefully ami enthusias tically seconding his proposal, took toy attention from hint. I was sur prised to find how strong was my own Inclination to accept his ridicu lous offer. To ride horseback grace fully always has been an unfulfilled ambition wStirh my pecuniary coni rnonsense has prevented niy gratify ing. But I never have forgotten th® happiness of one summer of my'child hood spent on a farm where there waa a horse which I was permitted to ride. Marion's glowing face brough hack to me a vivid memory of that glorious time, and with a sud den irresponsible impulse I lifted Junior from the saddle. Then with n sobering second thought I looked around warily. "Where Is your father?” I asked, remembering the elder Tlcer s appe tlte for gossip. "Gone over to our place with .Tim," Jerry responded evidently reading my thoughts. "Jtm'a going to help him mend som# harness, and he won't he back for an hour. If you'll jest come down this way a bit. there Is a big stump that you kin use to get on his hack." '‘Managed to Get on llorse." With the years of discretion sud denly gone glimmering } followed “Lady" to the stump, and despite my awkwardness managed,, flounder ingly with Jerry's help to get on the horse's hack. I remembered enough of my childhood training to enable me to guide her without Jerry’s pro tecting hand upon the bit. Up the hill and back again and around the orchard I rode, shutting my mental .eyes tq the ludicrous picture I knew I was making and enjoying every minute of the experience. When we came out upon the level grassy plot between the farmhouse and my be loved perennial garden I prepared to dismount. Then suddenly I clutched my reins tightly instead »nd gave a little scream of dismay. For as Jerry sounded a few pro vocative notes upon a harmonica which he surreptitiously had lifted to his mouth, "Lady" suddenly whirled and circled around an imaginary track with mincing, dancing step*.

No cook mi, / Should Young Women Marry Old Men? A number of times I have expressed my opinion against the marriage of two persons between whom there la a big difference In age. Often women write to me complain ing because their husbands are old and settled while they crave the pleas ures of youth. Here Is a woman who believes that for happiness' sake the man should be older. Concerning ad vice I gave to a woman she says: Dear Miss Allen: I married a man 20 years older than myself and have not regretted It once. I was only 24 when 1 married. We have been mar ried five -years and have the nicest little son 4 years old. I really believe that the man ought to be quite a lit tle older than the woman. After a woman gets married and has her home duties and habies to care for she doesn't care for the same things that Rhe called sport before marriage. I really enjoy a homo man more than one that wants to go to this and that all the time. Although I don't want to stay home all the time and can enjoy myself when we do go away’, I think many people go too much for their happiness. We have never dls agreed on how we should spend our spare lime. My belief Is that a girl should marry the man aha loves re .gardless of nge. Marriage Is based on love and where there Is love there Is contentment. MRS. J. J. I agree that the difference In age matters little where the man and the woman have similar interests and en thustasma. But tills Is usually the case where couples are of about the same age. Dot: There is no reason why you shouldn't be friends with both boys. You shouldn’t be thinking of marry ing either one. Arealea: . There Is no cure for jeal ousy thaat I know of. Be considerate of the young man's feelings, but do not allow him to dominate j'yi. Miss Martha S.: That was a nice letter from you. I will forward it to A. S. M. Birthday Dinner Bridge. Mrs. C. F.
