My Heart and My Husband
ADELE GARRISON'S Nfew Phase of
Revelations of a Wife"
.Why. Madge Nearly Choked Over
her Picnic Lunch.
Dicky's apologetic good nature
withstood even the strain of a motor
drive home with me at the wheel,
although I feared every minute of
the way that something untoward
would happen to upset him. He had
refused flatly to drive back, I al
though I urged him to do so, but
he did not accompany his refusal
with the contemptuous Reference to
my car with which he had greeted
my first mention of his driving. In
stead, he was amusedly indulgent
concerning the whole thing.
"What I" he exclaimed, when I
broached the subject, "Deprive you
of tooling this chariot along the
boulevards and turning in. to our
ancestral estate amid the cheers of
our family and retainers? Nevaire,
nevaire, could I be so croo-el so
selfish. Nay, nay, my dear, you
drove out and you will drive back.
If a tire leaks or something like
that I'll be Johnny on the spot as
far as I know "
"Heaven help the tire I" Lillian
apostrophized, passing us with her
arms full of freshly laundered cloth
ing which she was packing.
"Pay no attention to that woman,
Madge," Dicky commanded. "She
upnwIiJij'eaiouS
this quest.on of
is simply so eaten
of both of us on
cars, that "
Making Plans.
, But Lillian had swiftly passed into
another room, and Dicky, finding
himself gesticulating to the empty
air, promptly changed the subject.
"What time do you expeAt to get
there?" he asked. i
"About 2 o'clock, allowing a good
deal of time," I replied. "Perhaps
before. We're going to start quite
early, you know."
"I'd better telephone mother, then,
to have a hearty luncheon ready at
1 o'clock and keen it till we come,"
my husband suggested with file
usual nonchalant masculine ignor
ance of housekeeping problems. I
had a sudden vision of Mother Gra
ham's face, and of Katie's confusion
were such a message to go over
the telephone' wires'.
"I'm afraid that would be a hard
thing for them to do, dear," I said
hesitatingly. "You see, your sister
and her husband are there, and you
know how particular mother -is to
have the food just so. If we arrived
too soon it wouldn't be ready, and
we would be too hungry to wait
patiently and if anything happened
to delay us the' meal would be
spoiled "from mother's standpoint.
"Don't you think it would be
better tell her we'll be; home some
time in the afternoon, and will have
luncheon on the road at some inn.
Then we can dine comfortably in
civilized fashion after we have gotten
rid of the dust. I do love this, but
I will be glad to get back to a good
shower, won't you, Dicky?" ,
"You've said something,", he re
sponded. "But deliver me from the
meals at these roadside inns. They're
fierce since the war. You pay nine
prices and get about 30 cents' worth
of food."
Marion's Suggestion. .
"May I s'gest mething, Uncle
Dicky?" said Marion with eyes dan
cing, but with demure quiet courtesy
as she put her little' lingers on nis
sleeves.
"You bet you may, sweetheart!"
he replied.
"Don't you think it would be ter
rible nice to have lunch some place
in the woods on tne roaar sne asK-
ed, ."We could build a fire arid
broil some sausage and make some
coffee and take some cocoa for me
- it. I wt T k.nrJ A (
Ticer say Mrs. Ticer was a 'dabster
at frying chickens,' and"
"Enough said, you angel child"
Dicky declared, seizing her hands
and whirling her around in a series
of dancing steps he had taught her.
You hav saved the day. Pray get L
into communication . with the re
doubtable Mrs. Ticer at once and
have her behead the poultry ana
heat the frying pan. That program
listens the best of anything I have
heard in a long time."
I g;ive Marion a surreptitious hug
myself when I was sure Dicky wasn't
looking. It was the plan I had
wished most fervently to carry out,
hut which I had feared to broach to
Dicky, knowing the queer obstinacy
with which he sometimes opposes a
suggestion which he has not himself
fathered. Marion could not have
spoken more opportunely if I(had
coached her in her role, and I was
afraid Dicky might upon reflection
suspect that I was the real author of

th scheme, although I really had
had no inkling of the childVpurpose
until he spoke.
Kht happily he wa,not in a sus
picious mood, and I do not think any
one of our little party ever enjoyed
anything more than we did the pic
nic luncheon which we ate in a se
cluded spot on a side road less than
three hundred feet from Merrick
road, yet so thoroughly screened by
the autumn foliage that even the
smoke of our fire was not visible. ,
"This beats any restaurant meat
ever cooked," Dicky declared. "Bet
ter eat heartily, Madge. You'll need
to be fortified to stand the shock of
seeing how big Junior has grown,
He's six inches taller, 10 pounds
heavier, and talks pretty, nearly as
much as Lil. You'll have to be in
troduced all over again to him. I'll
bet he won't know you at that.
Yov've been gone nearly a month
you know."
t auiiost choked upon the food I
was eating., The rest of Dicky's
nonsense I had taken at its usual
vaWc-. hut his last sentence made
mc'.sAiivcr with real apprehension.
My haby not know me. It was un
thfoHJtble. :.'''

UIlLUIlMUUUUllcu, uay
Opponents of Suffrage
New York, Feb. 13. Granting
of woman suffrage "over the heads
of the people," by legislative act
"cannot stand the test in the courts
that will inevitably ensue" is the
assertion made in a statement is
sued here by the National Associ
ation Opposed to Women Suffrage.
"These cases,", the statement con
tinues, "should ratification' be ob
tained in time for women to vote
this year, will not only hold up
the election result as did the Hayes
Tilden conflict, htit possibly neces
sitate a Second election., Republican
and democratic chairmen, working
under the suffrage whip, are lead
ing the country straight for political
chaos."'
The statement was amplitied by
Miss Gary Q. Kilbreth, the presi
dent, who declared two suits would
be instituted to test the consti
tutionality of the Susan B. Anthony
amendment if it becomes operative
before the presidential and state
elections next fall.
Attached to the Statement was
a copy of a telegram sent to Gov
ernor Hart of Washington con
gratulating hint on his refusal to
call a special session of the legis
lature to act on the suffrage act.

"The week before we tried Don Suntr,

Sung, we got 72 eggs, and the next week
104. Some of our hens are mere pullets
Mr. B. F. Pierce, k! r. Fi, Butler,
and Don Sung has started them laying.
Mrs. Pierce Selected a severe time for
her test the middle of January. Yet she
started getting the eggs promptly. Yout
hens can lay well, tn cold weather, and
we'll prove it. Here's tour offer:
Give your hens Don Sung and watch re
sults for one month. If you don't iind that
it pays for, itself and pays you a good
profit besides, simply tell us and your
money will be promptly refunded.
Don tSunK (Chinese for egg-laying)
works Jlirectly on the. egg-laying -organs,
and is also a splendid tonic. It is -easily
given in the feed, improves the hen's
health, makes her stronger and more ac
tive in hiv weather, and starts her laying.
Try Don Sung for -30 days, and if it.

'Giddap,"Gee,Haw,and
Down the Road He Went
By WILLIAM
; Once upon a time, somewhere, a farmer was plow-.
I ing'a field "ho, hum," the day was hot and the furrows
long. ;
A man came running down the road, his arms swing-
-Jng, his face' ablaze with excitement. He hopped the Is

vulsed and perspiring countenance while waiting for the, j,
farmer to plow down, to him. The farmer was slow.(i
He plodded along, only giving the man a curious glance,'
:;then returning his eye to his
furrow was running straight.
"Hurry," yelled the man.
what's happened."
The farmer strode evenly
the rowvand leaned casually
eyed the man calmly, inquiringly.
The man jumped up and down in a frenzy.
'Til wake vou ud!" he veiled. "Strikes! What do J
t you think of that? The
strike!"
He eyed the farmer anxiously. The farmer ap
peared unmoved. He flapped a fly from the off horse.
t with a rein and mopped his
' "let 'em."
The man's jaw dropped.
I uncomprehending, paralyzed. Then his teeth clicked,
and he glared at the farmer fiercely.
"All right," hesaid. "How about this Baker's
War department bought 945,000 saddles for 140,000,
horses, and sent 39,000 automobiles over to France after
the armistice was declared, when they had 150,000 over,
there already, and then sold the whole 189,000 to thej
Frenchies for 20 cents on the dollar. What about that,)
I' eh? Geminy crickets! '
The farmer looked over the plow handles down the
field. A grave expression came upon his features, and a
faraway look in his eyes.
"There's an election coming, 1 reckon," he said,
simply.
"Election, my aunt," yelled the man. "The pres;
dent's paralyzed."
"Mebbe so," said the farmer.
"The peace treaty and the league of nations all is a
mess.
'Yep.
"The bolsheviki are growing, and agitators are pop
ping up everywhere."
"I've heard about it."
"The country's going to pot."
"Can't never tell."
"Who knows what's going to happen?"
"Jesso." "
"And you stand there like a bump and don't do noth
ing? Well, listen to this, d'you know what, Lansing's
I resigned."
I "Don't sav so."
"Yeh! And it's because of what Lansing knows 1
f about what, happened over to Paris, that's what. He's 1
I already said the country'd go crazy if it knew the whole
t truth about that there Paris conference, and sunDOsinc I
t he talks now."
& "Supposing he does?"
"Suppose he does?
I that's what."
"Let 'er bust."
"Let 'er bust? Why,
I; That ain't no way to act. Say somethnig. Do. some
f thing." '
"I am," said the farmer. "Gee, haw." He picked
up the reins and down the row he went.
And that's just the way the business man is doing
nowadays. Strikes and politics, nothing matters he's
got his eye on the business furrow and straight down the
row he's going.
