HOLDING A. HUSBAND
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations oj a Wife
Is Dicky, Not Rita Brown, Really
to Blame?
I do not think I have ever had a
greater struggle to keep my temper
than I had at Rita Brown's insinua
tion that Maj. Grantland was to be
my companion in my morning's tour
of Washington. That there was
malice in her railjery 1 well knew,
but there was something more than
malice in the expression of her face
as she adjured me to call her early,
that she might be my "lady chap
eron." Avidity, crass and undisguised,
shone in her brilliant eyes. I knew
as well as if she had told me in so
many words that she meant to do
her utmost to attract the attentions
of Hugh Grantland, and this with
out feeling the slightest attraction
toward him. I knew that in her
shallow soul she jeered at him for
his lack of drawing room tricks,,
that she knew nothing, cared noth
ing, for the wonderful qualities of
brain and heart which the man pos
sessed. There was but one thought
in her mercenary mind, and that
was the wealth which Hugh Grant
land possessed, the material advan
tages he could and would give the
woman he married.
The very perception of her inten
tion, however, made it possible for
my self-control to win in the battle
my indignation was waging with my
poise. That she was clever enough
to guess that I had fathomed her
thoughts I was sure indeed, I sus
pected that she counted not only
upon my knowledge but upon the
distinctly feminine weapon which
that knowledge put into her h?nds.
For she knew that I knew what
construction she would pretend to
put upon any resentment of mine
toward her. She was capable of
making apparent to all our little
circle that any coolness of mood
upon my part no matter what the
provoca'P.i was based upon my
dislike to see any other woman find
favor in the army officer's eyes.
With a mental anathema against
the fate which had thrown the girl
into the enforced'' intimacy of my
railroad journey, I put down my
temper with a firm hand. I even
managed a careless smile of my own
as I retorted:
Rita Brown Chooses.
"I'd be 'delighted to have you, but
I'm afraid you'll be disappointed.
There'll be no one more romantic
than my father in my rambles."
"Tell that to the porter!" she
gibed. "Can't put me off that way,
dear heart. Well, here's where the
race is to the swift! Night, night."
She had been rapidly undressing
during our colloquy, and as she
spoke she slipped into a fetching
pair of rose silk pajamas and dove
into the lower berth. Drawing the
blankets up over her, she laughed
up at me in gamin fashion, then
turned over on her side and pretend
ed to drop off into immediate slum
ber. Even through my angry amaze
ment at her impudence I couldn't
help smiling at the exquisite irony
the situation in which I found
myself. Both my father and Hugh
Grantland had secured drawing
rooms for me in order that I might
travel comfortably. Mrs. Durkee
was ensconced in one and Rita
Brown in the lower berth of the
other, while I, perforce, must either
climb to the tipper berth or accom
modate myself to the narrow con
fines of the couch.
I chose the latter immediately.
After bathing my face and hands
ai.d braidinsr my hair little func
tions which Rita Brown had entirely
omitted, to my intense disgust I
slipped into its surprisingly com
fortable bed. There I lay awake for
some time wondering at the curious
mental makeitD of a girl who could
do the petty little trick she had just
performed, and just as I was sink
ing into slumber a sudden unplea
art thought jerked me back into
wakefulness.
The Answer?
What had Dicky told her about
the drawing room .arrangements,
anyway? Perhaps sha was guilty
of nothing but an exhibition ot
natural selfishness. As 1 thought
over I realized that no doubt my
husband, with his inordinate desire
to be royally courteous to every
body, had given her to understand
that drawing rooms were provided
for everybody, and that the fact of
our sharing the mc stateroom was
a mere coincidence.
It was just one of Dicky's life
ways, and I chided myself for the
jealous resentment that the thought
of it gave me. But try as I might 1
could not banish from my mind the
contrast between my husband's a.
titude and that of Major GrantlaH.
As 1 fiinally slipped into slumber 1
told myself drowsily, but no less
bitterly, that Dicky was consideiate
of every one in the world but me,
while Major Grantland

Guest Towels.
In marking the guest towel
a monogram is favored, but a single
initial fs entirely proper. The old
English letter is oftenest used, but
a newer note is seen in a letter
formed like a diamond with orna
ments at either side-giving the im
pression of an ornament. ,The old'
fashitnied cross-stitch is much in
favor. Whether the marking is a
single letter or a monogram, it
should be placed in the center of the
towel and within three or four
inches of one end, so that when the
towel is folded in three folds the
embroidery will show as the towel
hangs on the rack.

Why Persecute Your Feet?

Figure ( 1 ) shows
how the foot looks
when wedged into
a jiarrow-toe shoe.
Figure (2) shows
how the foot takes
its natural posi
tion in a Ground
Gripper Shoe.
No part of the body "serves" more steadily
and continuously than the feet.
While active they must also support the entire
weight of the body.
Then why do we add persecution, knowing
that it alone causes most of the foot ailments?
We cannot crowd the feet, pinch the toes, bind
the muscles, retard circulation and expect to
have normal, healthy feet.
Nature gave us feet to use and not abuse.
Ground Gripper Shoes are shaped as nature
shaped our feet. They 'give utmost freedom
to every required muscle , movement they
support the weak places as nature intended
they build up sound, rugged, healthy feet,
which never annoy. ' 1
