“My Husband's Love”
Is There Something Really Serious
Troubling Mm. Durkee?
Mrs. Durkee s sweet, childlike face
wore a gray, haggard look which
startled me, and her usually merry
blue eyes were strained with some
thing which was either physical pain
or mental worry, perhaps both.
She attempted a gallant little smile
as she saw me, but It was a pitiful
l thing, and I drew her quickly into
my arms.
“Whatever la the matter?” I asked,
but she put her finger to her lips
quickly." I noticed also that she had
winced as if with pain at my touch,
and I began to grow alarmed for her.
“Nothing at all," she said, ami then
with a wary glance around: "Is
Dicky here?”
"No, but I’m expecting him every
minute,” I replied, as with my arm
around her I drew her into the living
room and put her in the most com
fortable chair.
“Oh, dear!” she said dolefully, while
I looked at her In surprise, for Dicky
is a prime favorite of her. ”1 did so
hope I’d find you alone.”
"You will in another quarter hour,”
I returned, smiling. “Dicky’s simply
stopping in to get his bag, and then
he’s going out of town for three
days.”
“I am so glad,” she said, and then
flushed shamefacedly.
"How horrid it was of me to say
that!" she continued. "But you 11 un
derstand when I tell you. I don't
want Dicky to suspect anything,
though. I'll just tell him I've come
in on a shopping trip. Do I look all
right?"
"So Long, Madge!"
"Of course," 1 said, mendaciously,
"and if you didn't, you know what
Dicky is when he's starting for a
trip. He’ll have nbout 30 seconds
margin to catch his train. Here he
is now!”
The doorbell had pealed again, and
I guessed that Dicky was too im
patient to use his key. In another
second I had opened the door and
Dicky had brushed past me. —
"Did you close the hag?" he de
manded, and at my negative he gave
a relieved ejaculation. "I’ve got to
put in that manuscript Hutton sent
me two weeks ago, and that brown
jacket. Do you know where they
are?"
“Right here." I rushed into the
bedroom. Snatched the manuscript
from the tumbled head of Dicky's be
longings in which I had seen it, took
the jacket from its hook, and came
back with it just as Dicky stooped
and kissed little Mrs. Durkee.
"Of course, you'd wait to come to
see us till I was safely out of the
way," he said reproachfully. "But
just remember. I'll he too far away to
bail either of you two out, so be
careful. So long. Got it, Madge?
Good girl!"
He thrust the manuscript and the
jacket into the hag. closed it, and,
rising, kissed me warmly.
"Take care of yourself," he adjured,
“and remember, don't stay here alone
Mrs. Durkee. make Madge go home :
with you if she misses the last train !
to the Harbor."
He was -out of the room and the
hall in a flash, the doors-slamming
after him, and I reached the window
only just In time to see him leap
Into a taxicab which stood at the
curb with the engine running. The
oar leaped forward before he was
fairly inside, and I turned away with
the terrified qualm which always
comes to me at Dicky's headlong
recklessness.
"If only he doesn’t break his neck
before he gets to the station,” I
sighed.
"Iton't they always say Providence
watches over fools and children?”
Mrs. Durkee asked, with a naive little
laugh. "And the Dicky-bird surely
belongs to onf class or the other.”
"Shame on you for libeling my hus
band like that^' I said. "But I've got
the burning cmtls all ready for your
head. Don't you dare to move till I
get back.”
I rushed down the hall to my little
kitchen, thankful, indeed, that my
percolater coffee was still fresh
enough to serve. I hastily prepared
a cup, put it with a plate containing
crackers and some of Mother Gra
ham's currant jelly, on a tray. Then,
hurrying back to the living room, I
set the tray on the table near her
chair.
“Drink that coffee.” I said com
mandingly, "and well talk after
ward.”
Her eyes brightened, and she raised
the cup to her lips eagerly. But I
saw with concern that the hand which
held the cup trembled perceptibly.
‘‘You do make the best coffee.
Madge.” she said appreciatively, hut
when she had drained the cup ami <
nibbled at a cracker she stared down
at the tray for a long minute, and
then I saw slow tears rolling down
her cheeks.
Uncle Sam Says
Urne-Sulphur Sprays.
Any fruit grower who Is equipped
with the proper apparatus can read
ily prepare lime-sulphur solution for
spraying. The equipment need not be
elaborate or expensive where small
quantities are to be made, since a ,
first class concentrate can he pro
duced in an ordinary iron kettle sus
pended over a wood fire.
in the first part of this booklet
which is issued by the Federal Bu
reau of Entomology, will be found
formulas and suggestions for making,
storing and diluting of lime-sulptlur
concentrate. In the latter part sug
gestions are given on the building of
several types of cookers of different
sizes, ranging from a very simple
25-gallon kettio to steam plants in
which 800 gallons of the concentrate
can be prepared in one cooking.

Problems Thai Perplex
K. M. K.: Kye strain is prevented
by scientifically adapted spectacles,
by care to secure the right kind of
illumination, and by systematically
resting the eyes. Reading on moving
trains or doing tine bead work or
knitting is not good. Be careful not
to read in a waning light or In full
glare of a light. If you must work
facing the light a shade Is necessary.
Rut I should think your employer
would have tto objection to turning
your desk so as to allow the light to
fall over the left shoulder, since yom
work will he more effectively done
as a result. Rest your eyes during
the day by walking to the window
several times and gazing a long dis
tance off. At night make a tiny
m/npact of cotton and after dipping
It in cold water luy on the eyelids.
Uorolliy: Xo one is to he blamed
for striving after beauty. But any
one is to be pitied for -dealing only
with surfaces and externals. A lip
stick can only redden a mouth—not
change its expression. Rouge will
give a glow to the drab skin, but it
won't change the texture 'of skin
nor lift sagging muscles.
Cosmetics are temporary ex
pedlents. but, however artfully ap
plied, they cannot produce beauty at
close range.
Diet and exercise and good hours
will do much to Improve a figure antj
to give health and tone to the skin.
.Sanitary conditions and sanity In liv
ing are a good pair of beauty doctors.
liut thrv ch ill d*> everything—Indeed
il sometimes seems as if they could
do almost nothing.
A pa ft from the accident of being
horn beautiful, no one is ever so
i lovely as she w ho cultivates beauty j
I in her soul. For the beauty of right
1 living and right thinking is bound
I to give a fate the illumination of
I charm and gyacioueness and loveh
! ness.
No face which is unilluminated has j
la claim to beauty. The things which
light a face ale intelligence, kind
ness, animation and the « nthusiasrn
which reaches out toward the world
instead of turning in toward self.
If beauty is to appeal to the mind
rijl sum!— it must come from your
mind and soul. A. radiant smile, a j
I fearless eye. a huhiorous life to the ,
lip corners—all make their appeal.
No one need in- ugly if he or “lie
1 lias a radiant soul and a clean healthy j
body to express it. No one need let .
discontent or suspicion warp and dis
tort his features Real beauty is B“ ,
much an expression of lieauttful i
thoughts, of clean living, of whole
some kindliness, and of a grateful
1 love of living as it is of perfect tea
lures. It is worth trying for.
