Dear Miss Allen: After five years of married lift m.v wife and I went upon the rocks. Though I had the best little girl in the world without a question, we never had anything In common. Her ideas and mine were as different as night and day. I was always whistling, singing and Jumping around the bouse carrying her downstairs, etc., while she was always quiet and my actions eeem to get on her nerves. She said I was not serious enough because I used to laugh off all our little troubles and say, “Everything will come out all right—don’t worry;" She was always tired when T wanted to go to a theater or take a trip some where. After five years we had a long talk and agreed to separate. Afterward we were divorced, although during all thoge five years our friends used to envy us our happiness. Do you, Miss Allen, beHeve that God so made us that we love but once —that Is, really love—In a lifetime? t wonder whether you would care to take this up with your many kind readers and get different opinions from them. For surely It is a sub ject most vital and Interesting to many of us. SHIPWRECKED. Whatever your experience has been, my frlen*; do not, 1 beg of you, think Df yourself as you signed your letter —"Shipwrecked." For if you have Dnc# really loved a woman with the biggest love of which man Is capable, then you love her still. And even though unrequited, such a love brings peace, enriching life and character. If real love has not yet come, keep in looking and preparing for It, know ing that It could not visit a nature essentially petty or self-absorbed. So ook ahead, prepare yourself and wait for the one great love of your life. You can afford to wait long and pa tiently—can you not?—for an ex perience that should enable you and he woman you will love, while still roing through the fortunes and mis fortunes of our human life, to enjoy i foretaste of heaven and found a Dome that shall he a haven of rest, Deace and joy.

Adele Garrison “My Husband’s Love” v_-/ Why Madge Eagerly Agreed lo Lil lian'* Request. Lillian looked up quizzically aa 1 entered, bearing In one hand the lemon, the request £»r which had been my excuse for knocking at Mrs. Marks’ door. I read temporary relaxa tion in both her face and her posture, and knew that the task she had set herself was going along to her satis faction. "Everything is jake?”fshe quoted, laughingly. "Even more than that,” I returned immeasurably cheered by the opti mism I read in her demeanor. "The dedoubtabie Petey didn’t give battle, then, I take it?” she con tinued, lazily. "Indeed, no. Instead, he told his wife fo 'go along’ to the door when I gave my name, and I was enabled to receive from her an enthusiastic blessing upon you and a promise to do as you asked.” ”T could mpnage without the first,” Lillian grinned, "but I am mighty glad for the promise. Now, sit down. I have something to ask of you. and. believe me, child. I'd rather have a tooth pulled than do It.’’ A sudden Intuition made the air of the room appear suddenly cold, but with a tremendous effort I forced my voice to casualness as I asked: “You wish me to take Mollie Faw cett home with me for a few days?” Lillian permitted herself a quizzical stare at me. "Clairvoyant creature!” she gibed. "What makes you think so?" "There's nothing psychic about it.’’ I retorted, a bit nettled at the inti mation that it was Instinct, not rea soning, which had guessed her pur pose. "When you ask the girl if slit can go away from the city for awhile, and then a few minutes later ask me how long Dicky and his mother are ti®be away, it doesn't take a Monsieur Lupin to—’* “That Doesn't Matter." "Put wo and two together and make five,” Lillian interrupted mer rily. "But in this case, my deai J logician, they make a very distinct four. I do want you to take Mollie Fawcett home with you and keep her there until I clean up this mess, but —it’s only fair to warn you—I may not be able to bring her back before Dicky and his mother get home." Her eyes were fixed upon me. and I read in them loving, sorrowful com prehension of the problem that was mine. "That doesn't matter at all. Of course. Mother Graham may be a bit —difficult—about having a stranger in the house, but I am sure Dicky will be able to manage her.” “If he can't just drop a line in her ear that Mollie is the central figure n s melodramatic mystery, the stor: of which I will tell her when next 11 see her," Lillian said, and I read In , her voice Infinite relief at my atti tude toward her proposal. "She will Insist upon the girl stay ing indefinitely." I laughed, and I think even Lillian did not suspect the effort the apparent mirth cost me. For every undisciplined impulse within me was crying out that I could not do this thing, could not bring .VJollle Fawcett's exquisite love liness into the same house with my beauty-loving., temperamental, artist husband. What Madge Feared. The memory of the accident still unexplained when I had found her handkerchiefs and scarf binding up his wounded head, the knowledge of his openly expressed desire to have her as a model for his Illustrations, and of his secretly maneuvered meet ing with her on the apartment house stairway—all these things rose before my mental vision and warned me tauntingly that I was but inviting a repetition of the misery which had been mine during other romantic lapses of my Peter Pan husband, if I should do the thing Lillian asked. This was the cry of the weaker part of my nature. My common sense stiffened by the knowledge of Lillian's approval, told me that I could not shut my husband away from fendnine society, and that if he were to he unduly attracted by Mol lie Fawcett's unusual beauty, it were better for me to have the girl In the same house with me than to eat out my heart in conjecture whenever Dicky should be absent. ^Copyright, 1 924. > At Ten Dollars Each T-u-e-s-d-a-y Buy for now and next season.
