My Marriage Problems Adele Garrison’* New Phase of “Revelations of a Wife” The Way Madge Managed to Mask Her Nervous Fears. With a shrill of protesting brakes the gray limousine came to a stop a yard or two past me, for its speed in pursuing my small car had been surh that stopping its momentum was no > easy matter. ‘ The big man came nut on the run ning board, as the chauffeur put his engine in reverse, and backed the big ear close to mine. T sat watch ing them with the feelings of a trapped animal. I did not fear Imme diate death, unless the hatred of Grace Draper should break through her poise. I was sure her beauty of face and ugliness of soul was hid den beneath the fashionable yash mak-veil of the woman I had seen in the limousine. Dut. 1 could not help remembering Lillian's sinister suggestion that the gang which in cluded Smith would not balk at tor ture to find the paper containing the secret formula my father had invented and I am not ashamed to confess that 1 had the sensation of being closely wrapped In ice. But there was only one thing left to me—to play the game. I w'ould let them see no faltering, I grimly de ■ tided, until It was no longer possible for me to stand firm—I had no illu sions as to my behavior under physi cal pain, for T am an arrant coward in a dentist's clinlr. But I knew that they would carry me to some safer place than the h'oad boulevard which links one end of Long Island with the other before beginning any action other than getting me into Hie other car, and sonic miracle might happen before then. Tt behooved me to keep every sense alert, and let no word or action of the cohipunlons forced on me goad me into forget t tipg my watch of the road. “•Get in Here." I folded my hands on the wheel and looked with cool Inquiry at ttie big man, who, with red, angry face, jumped to my running board when the car had stopped, and seized my arm roughly. "Get in here,” he said savagely. "Toil won't yell, if you know what's good for you." "I haven't the s%htest intention of yelling,” I said, .and I shall be charmed to go with you. Your ear is muoh more comfortable than mine, a great deal speedier, and I shall reach my destination far more quickly. It would probably have taken me sev eral days to find your Interesting lair which now I shall reach before—” ‘‘Shut your trap!” the man growled. "That sort of bunk won’t get you anything." But I had seen the quick, furtive, almost alarmed glance which he had shot at the woman behind the yashmak-veil, had seen her almost im perceptible gesture in reply, and knew that my random shot had told. The chauffeur had jumped down while I wits speaking and had come round to the front door of my ear. The hig man released my arm. "You’ll get In quietly,” ho said. "Of course,” I returned. "Will you please transfer my things, or are you forbidden any courtesies?” Minute Directions. The man looked at the woman again, rfnd again 'she bent her head, this time in a nod of permission. But I saw her eyes narrow at my taunt, and I was more than ever convinced that the eyes were those of Grace Draper. The chauffeur put out his hand courteously enough to lift me dow'n, but kept his hand firmly on my arm until I was safe inside the big lim ousine. The yashmak-veiled woman made room for me on the seat beside her, and when 1 pressed back inito the corner as far away from her as I bould get, she gave a little mali cious chuckle. Impossible to Identify, but which was strongly reminiscent to me of Grace Draper's laugh. The big man and the chauffeur (larked my luggage into the limousine and then the hig man, as if by pre arrangement, took his seat behind the wheel of the limousine, while the chauffeur climbed into the seat I had just vacated. "The first opening you can see that, you can drive her into the wood, do it,” directed the big man. "Don't be afraid of smashing the cursed thing—but be sure it can’t be seen readily. If you hear tne honk three times you'll know there's somebody behlnd us, and lay off until 1 honk twice to show all's clear again. I'll he right liehind^you, and will wait ill the road, pretending to fix the engine until you come out of the woods." There was no need of the honking. No one passed and we had gone but a few yards when we came upon the entrance to a winding wood path, too narrow it seemed for even my small ear. But withTnfinite skill the chauf feur guided it into the twisting path, disappeared from view, and in two or throe minutes we heard a crashing. ! rending sound, which made even the impassive woman start behind her : yashmak-veil, and set the big man j to muttered cursing, which I saw held distinct worry for the chauffeur. I ---,| Problems That Perplex By BEATRICE FAIRFAX For English Estate. Dear Miss Fairfax: 1 am wonder ing if you could tell me where I would /write, or whom I would write to in London to find if they were working on an estate to settle it up over there. Would it be the attorney general or who? Is he called attor ney general in England? It is a very large estate and we are very interested In it, but can't seem to got reports directly from England.

He will tell you how to proceed. Removing Moles. Dear Miss Fairfax: I hu\c read your advice to others and am now coming to you with nine. Could you recommend something to remove moles on the skin?

Come to me if you are in Omaha, where the work can bo done, I will tell you who are reliable. Bobby and Peggy: Girls of your lire should respec t the opinions of ei -’r parents. Wait until you are 18 before you undertake to decide big e;u-: lions for yourselves. Pals: Girls of 14 and 15 should fol low their parents’ advice. By TIIOKNTON W. Itt Kt.KSS, Farmer Brown’s Boy Makes a Homo for the Young •>»!. Gentle kindness never ends When one is bent on makimc frb mis. —Farmer Brown s Hoy. j When Farmer Brown’s Boy reached the ground with the young Owl ne j had taken from the nest of Hooty and Mrs. Hooty ho promptly started for home. Hooty and Mrs. Hooty didn't follow him far. They were too anxious about the baby he had left In the nest to follow Farmer Brown’s boy. Perhaps they knew that it would be useless. Perhaps they un derstood that there was nothing they could do. Anyway, they didn't follow him. save for a very short distance. Farmer Brown's Boy carried the young Owl very carefully. He took great care ndt to hurt him in any way. If the little fellow was afraid he didn't show It. He didn’t cry. He just looked as fierce as he knew how. Probably he was afraid. Probably he was very much frightened. What baby is there who wouldn't he fright ened if carried away by a great giant? But to have see him you never would have guessed it. When Farmer Brown’s Boy reached home lie put the young Owl in a l>ox”and then went to work to make a home for his new pet. He made a big covered pen of wire netting and in this he placed a large box with a perch, in it. Then ho placed the pen out near the henhouse. The box In the pen was made In such a way th it he could take It Into the henhouse at night with the young Owl shut in it, and**o/be sure that the little fellow would not suffer from cold, now that he no longer had a mother' to protect him. All the time the young Owl hissed and snapped his bill, and didn't ap pear in the least grateful for what was being done for him. He wasn't grateful. Of course not. He wanted to he back In that nest over in the Green Forest. lie didn't intend to make friends with this ginnt who had taken him affay from his home. Farmer Brown’s Boy went into the house and got some raw meat which he cut into small pieces. This he took out and offered to his new' pet. The little Owl refused to even look at it. He simple glared and glared and glared with those yellow eyes of his, and hissed and hissed and hissed, and snapped and snapped and snapped his little hooked bill. Farm1 er Brown’s Boy waited around and watched for a long time, hut not once did that young Owl taste the meat. Before dark that night Farmer lie made a big, covered pen of wire netting ami in this lie placed a large Imx with a perrli in it. Brown's Hoy moved the box into the hen house. The meat was stili un touched. But the next morning when Farmer Brown s Boy looked in that box the meat had disappeared. Farm er Brown’s Boy chuckled. "Now that you have begun to eat,” said he, "we are going to get along fine. I shall have to try to catch some mice in the burn for you. Some day we are going to he friend*, even tf you don’t think so.” it appeared that the 1 it tie Owl didn’t think so. There was nothing in the least friendly about him. In fact he appeared more unfriendly than ever. It was very clear that If there was to be any friendship It would have to be won. He had no intention of meeting Farmer Brown’s boy half way. He later brought him some more meat, but the young Owl refused to touch it as long as Farm er Brown's Boy was near. Then the latter brought u Mouse he had caught in the barn. He held "it by the tall just In front of the little hooked bill of his prisoner. This was too much of a temptation, and the little Owl snatched it. "We are getting on.” said Farmer Brown's Boy.

Your Health is at Stake it You Suffer from Constipation l * Krery man, woman and child who has constipation or constipation symp toms should leave no stono unturned to get instant relief! Keep away frufn the dangers of pills and cathartics, which are almost as much to^ be dreaded as constipation itself. Your physician will recommend Kellogg’s Jirau because it is ALL BRAN—and it is Kellogg’s Bran that will give permanent relief if eaten regularly. Most cases of Bright’s and diabetes can be traced to constipation; in its milder form constipation is responsi ble for sick headache, nausea, pimples, sour breath, etc. And, we say right here—and guarantee what we say— that Kellogg's Bran, if eaten regu larly, will give you permanent relief. Kellogg’s Bran is wonderful as a food as well as wonderful as a natural means of relieving constipation.

Kat Kellogg’s Bran as a cereal. You’ll enjoy its nut-like flavor. Or, sprinkle it on or mix it with hot or cold cereals. Many like it cooked with hot cereals. Two tablespoon fuls of bran should be added in each instance. You havo missed much not to have eaten Kellogg’s Bran made into muffins, raisin bread or many other bakery batches. Beeipes on every package. Prominent hotels, res taurants and dubs serve Kellogg’* Bran in individual packages. All grocers sell Kellogg ’a Bran. * Great Good / A tragi* train of Ruffering. follows quickly, whenever the kidneys fail, even slightly, in acting to filter th® waste and poison from the system.
