My Marriage Problems
' . A dale Garrison's New Pbasa of
" REVELATIONS Oh A WIFE '
Cepribt !:J)
How Madge Evaded Dangerous
; , , Question,
, My filler's iildrm!
At ihia.rnu (tout the l pi of
the inttetiou foreigner who hid
come 'to my aid upon the delayed
ami darkened train, and who said
that lie was a fin-mi of my father',
J involuntarily stiilmed into sus
picion tvrit thouylt lit rcqunt on
the fare of it appeared to he only
a ru to divert the curious atten
tion of the other passengers in the
Hut. I was on enard definitely, I
wondered if perchance hU presence
m the nine train with tue was a de
liheratrly planned thing, in order t
hecotue possessed of that carefully
Kuarded secret, the addre.t by which
inv father might be reach? d bv we
nily in the gravest cmrrtjenry
whin he was cimaged in his secret
triii fur the government. '
Not that 1 needed to be on guard
against giving up that secret. I
could, riot inuiihic any combination
i'f circumstances which would per
mit Dirt information to pa. my lips
to any one gave another accredited
agent of the government, like Lillian
or Allen' Drake. But the request
made me 'suspect the motives of the
man vho had a-k'd it. and revived
tisaiu the uneasy feeling I had had
concerning hitn ever-- since hi en
trance into the train.
1 let no hint of my alarm escape
me, however. Fortunately, I had in
my memory an address in Washing
ton which always had been my
father's ostensible headquarters, and
I dictated, it, slowly, painstaking
ly. . . . ...
"Yew will find him there," I said,
"or if he' is not there, any message
you have will be promptly forward
ed to'hiui." '
He .wrote it down as if much de
pended upon the accuracy of. his
transcription, then he looked at rue
and I felt a though the eyes b
"hind the thick lenses were gjmleting
my pretense. And I was sure; I was
not mistaken as to the sardonic little'
quirk'to the mustached lips.
"My. felicitations to your father,
Mmet Graham," he murmured. "You
are a discreet as you are quick
witted, i Put, listen the : train , is
moving 1'
It was indeed true, and for a few
secotnds 1 forgot my ."disturbing re
flections concerning ,'the. mysterious
foreigner in the joyous anticipation
of being carried out of ' the terrify
ing tunnel. But it was a short-lived
hope, for;, the train lumbered groan
ingly' along for a few feet, then
stopped, while" the mptor.gavc a few,
discouraging thumps and- also
ceased' functioning. . : , , .. . ,
"Died at first 1" A man'!..ear the
front, of the car chuckled apprecia-.
tively at his own gibe, and the men
seated near him laughed perfunctori
ly. The voice of ,the . little girl
who mother was keeping her eo
cupied with wager on the turfing
ot the train rarroled triumphantly:
"That's another penny you owe
me, mother," and' the mysterious
foreluner smiled benignly at'me,
"The wonderful artlestnert of
child," he said. "Which remind me.
Your own lint, owe is well afttr hi
terrible exprrienea of .the spring V
"Very welt, indeed." I returned,
and my suspicious wwder increased. I
The. man knew and tad filed in his
memory altogether, too many fact
about rie for hc alien stranger he
professed himself to be.
"Pardon me, I fan gu' that you
do not wish to talk; about so terrible
a happening." he went on. and my
mind fatrncd mechanically upon
the distinctly American "guess." and
as mechanically tiled it away for fu
ture consideration, "but I have
grandchildren of my own" did I
imagine it, or wa there another
amud little quirk ,;" be
neatlt that white mustache, "and.
naturally, horror seizes me at any
mention of a kidnaping. And when
I read the account of the outrage
upon mv old friend's grandson 1
was in South America at the time,
and the paper reached me after the
whole thing was over I was terribly
shocked, and 1 alwavs have been
curious about it. The papers said
that the man who did it was killed,
and his accomplice received a long
prison sentence, while there was men
tion of a woman who escaped, Hut
her identity was not revealed. I
have wondered often tell me was
she not the guidine spirit in the af
fair?" There was something inscrutable
in his voice, which -had hardened
perceptibly as he talked. It was at
most as if he had a personal an
tagonism toward the miscreants who
had taken my boy. And there was
an almost malevolent eagerness in
his last question.
But not with this stranger could
I' discuss that terrible i blasting epi
sode which had shattered my health
and nerves for so long.
"I have reason to believe so." I
answered. VBut yon will pardon me,
I cannot refer to that time. It is
too horrible." '
"Oh!" he exclaimed contritely. "A
thousand pardons! I will not offend
agahi. It must have been indeed
horrible for you. If only"
He shut his lips quickly as if he
had been betrayed into saying some
thing he had not meant to utter. And
again the conviction forced itself
upon me that if I could only pierce
the mystery of those thick-lensed
glasses I would make a startling dis
covery. .
According to prominent oil men
in the United States, the price of
gasoline will average much higher in
1922 than in 1921.

.THE TALE OF
MASTER MEADOW
MOUSE
BYARTHUR SCOTT BAILEY
CHAPTER XIII.
A Moonlight Raid.
The Meadow Mouic pany, in the
roriuirld, vanished 8 u by magic.
Not one of the merrymaker linucrcd
an instant alter Itfjrinir that Fattv
Coin ttai rntrring the field. And,
nice Master Meadow Mouse hap.
lu-'4r
Hitttr Mdow Mocm bad fallen into a
doic when a kharp rvut! vraaad htm.
ne ned to be near the nhock where he
lived, he ran up it in a twinkling
and crept inside it, to curl up in hi
nert and try to catch forty winks.
He felt afe enough. Hadn't old
Mr. Crow come to the cornfield ev
ery day? He had never even poked
into a shock to disturb Master Mead
ow Mouie or one of hit foutint, Mr.
t'row had eaten corn, to be ure.
Hut he hadn't bothered anbody.
And now Matter Meadow Voue
thought that m toon at Fatty Coon
had smfled himself with corn he
would troll back tn Cedar Swamp.
Mater Meadow Moue had fallen
into a dre when aharp ruttle
wkd him,
"Ho, ho!" he rhu.tled. "There'
Fatty Coon now! He'i pulling an
ear of torn off my ahock. Well. 1
don't believe I'll mii it. There'
corn enough in this field for every
body."
Matter Meadow Mouse tried to go
to lcen again.
"I wih r atty Coon wouldn't nuke
o much noine, iid Master Meadow
Mouse, grumbling a little hecaue lie
wait very drowiy and didn't like to
be disturbed.
"There!" he f xdaimed a'nr a few
mnmrntj'. "lie' gone, thank good
ness.' "
Hut Fatty Coon bad only carried
hi ear of corn to Broad Brook to
wash it before he gobbled the ker.
nrls. He wa very particular to wah
alnioM everything lie ate. But that
was about the only way in which he
wa fuy. There was nothing, al
most, that he wouldn't bolt greedily.
Alter he bad devoured the first
car of corn, Fatty Coon went back
and pulled another off the tame
shock.
Again lie roused Master Meadow
Mouse from bis (.lumber.
"He's at it again V Master Meadow
Miue ioniditied. "I wish It A go
to oti other kttwtk,"
The third lima that Fifty Coon
wrenched ai ear fli com front the
thoik where Master Meadow Mouse
lived, he paue4 and cocked an ear
towarjt the tp of the ho'W.
"Was tht a queak' he ated
himself, And then be miffed. "Hal"
he crird, "Do 1 tmrll a Meadow
Mouse;"
Fatty Coon was iot mistaken.
Whrn lie ruktled the dried corn
stalks the third tmie Master Meadow
Moust had cried right cut in hi
sleep, And he waked up just toon
enough to bear Fatty Coon's re.
mark.
"Maybe ou !. smell a Meadow
Mouse." lie replied tinder lii breath,
so Fatty Comt couldn't hear hint,
"Hut it won't do you tuy good: for
I'm not coming out of my catle
until you go away."
It soon appeared that Fatty Coon
did not intend to leave. For Fatty
began to pull at the cotntalk with
his claws, Although Farmer (Ireen
had bound the stalks together tight
ly, one bv one Fatty tore them loose
and let them fall upon the grmmX
And inside the shock. Master
Meadow Mouse suddenly started up
in alarm.
