Holding a Husband
Adele .Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations of a Wife
What Madge' Father Did for Her
and Then Advised. ' t
I found' no .traditional ."blessed
relief" in tears. Instead, when the
hysterical burst of weeping had
finished shaking and tearing me, I
lay back upon the pillows of my
berth with a racking headache and
a deadly feeling of illness creeping
ove,r me.
" v.:; On exhausted to rise, and
as glad indeed that my father
had arranged the door so that he
could push it operl without my as
sistance. I knew that his solicitude
would station him near enougl the
door to keep every one else away,
and I longed for the moment when
he should redeentrhis promise to
bring Junior td' me. I felt so ill
that a dread of being alone began
to obsess nie.
. Yet when my father's gentle
knock sounded upon the door, pre
liminary to his entrance, and Junior
toddled to my side with rapturous
little gurgles of "Ma-ma. ma-ma," I
found that I could not endure even
my baby's prattle. I wanted
needed the ministrations of a
jihysician or a nurse. All other
companionship wcarted, me in
finitely. .' ' . '
My father looked at me keenly as
Junior clamhere J over me. then he
fiw.iftly came t my side, lifted thq
baby boy and carried him to . the
-courli, where he left him deltghtfullv
playing with one of the toys which
my father, makes a practice of
carrying in his coat pockets for the
cl';' I he idolizes.
When he had returned as swiftly
to. rie I felt him taking myv pulse,
l:i.'.ip my forehead and my palms
lir.htly to tcft my temperature. " It
is ! test I often -use when, I do not
v Un t(v di&turb my child with a
c'.-i;j-al thermometer one which mv.

"'riiir .hands ' vary with external

ar.' seldom an- accurate guide. But
'"tin fey you are in a fever yourself
yur Up are always the same tern
P-af"r"e, and you can. safely trust
them."
I felt' too exhausted to open my
ev?s, which had closed noon the pic
ture of my baby boy playing con
tentedly unon the couch.. but I won
dered weakly if my father's brain
was busy with the same memory
as - mine, only Extending' farther
Jiacky Had he stood with my mother

of it as I heard the. quick; intake

Friends of Torn Mix, cowboy star, who is to appear at the Moon
tosattr next week in "3 Gold Coins," are urging him to get a motor
boat, since there are such excellent opportunities for boating in the
Pacific waters nef Los Angeles." Tom good-naturedly replies with his
western drawl:
"They can't kill me with bucking hdsses, runaway teams, racing!
autos, so now they want to try it with
cowboy. What would I do on the becking ' waters with a lasso and a
gun?" Tom admits he would rather take part in plays with bad horses,
gamblers and real live western sheriffs.
The straw vote presidential elec
tion which the Sun theater is holding
this week is proving exceedingly
ropular. i Ladies are delighted that
they do not have to disclose their
ages, the total number of votes
cast last Sunday was 4.901. Harding
appears to be the most popular can
didate. 1 The first day of votirfg net
ted him 2,546 ballots. Cox was next
with 1,433 voteSi Even Debs, and
Christcnsen had friends, while Wat
kins, on the prohibition ticket, re
ceived no vtes. Daily results of
the election are posted on a bulletin
board in the lobbv of the theater.
Marv Boland, who is featured with
Lucy Cotton in "The Prodigal Wife,"
at the Muse theater today and tomor
row, thinks only such moving pic
tures should be made as have a pur
pose. As opposed to those screen stars
who . demand that they shall appear
exclusively in stories which give the
fullest scope, for their beauty, Miss
Boland cares little for whether the
story presents her in the most attrac
tive light or not, so long as it pro
vides the opportunity for real act
ing and contains a message that- will
touch the hearts of audiences. '

Irish Twins and the Juggler. -
The first pers-on- -they' stopped .to
watch was a Juggler-doing tricks. It
was quite wonderful to see him keep
three balls in the air-all at the same
time, or balance a pole on the e,:id of
his nose. But when . he took out a
frying pan from behind his stall and
said to the, Twins, who wee stand
ing right in front of him,. "Now. I'll
be after making yon a bit of an .ome
let without any cooking," their eyes'
were fairly popping , out of their
heads .with surprise. ,
The Juggler broke an egg into the
frying pan. Then he: clapped on the,
cover, waved the pan in the air. and
lifted jlie cover again. , Instead of an
omelet, there in the frying pan, was
a little black chicken crying, "Peep,,
peep! as if it wanted its mother! ;
The Juggler looked" very much
surprised himself, and the Twins
were simply astonished.
"Will you see that now!" Larry
whispered to Eileen. "Sure, if only
Old Speckle could be learning that
trick, 'twould save her a deal of sit
ting.'? J:
"Indeed, then 'tis magic!" Eileen
answered' back, "and there's no luck
in that same! Do -you come away,
now, Larry McQueen, or he might
be casting his spells on yourself and
turning you into something else en
tirely, a goat, . maybe, .or a Lepre
chaun!"' '': t
This seemed quite likely to LJrry,
toS so they slipped hurriedly put
under the elbows of the crowd just
as the. Juggler was in the very act o
Jinding a white rabbit in the crown
of his hat. Jhey never stopped run

WHY?-
Do Stars Shoot?
(Copyright, 1920. By the Wheeler
. Syndicate.. Inc. ...
"Strictly sp.eaking, the stars( do
not shoot, for the word "star" is
correctly applied only to huge
heavenly bodies which move in
a predetermined and very regu
!ar"orbit, and which; 'if they' were
to shoot toward the earth, would
cause the destruction of every
living, thing .upon this globe be
cause of. the lieat generated by
their friction passage.
What we generally refer to as
"shooting; stars" 'arc really only
pebbles or bits of other , mntter
which have been' dislodged from
some other 1 body in moving
through Space and which are- at
tracted to ' the earth becauseof
the force of gravity. The vast
majority of these "meteorites."
as they are called, arc completely
consumed by the heat caused by
their speedy journey through
the air, but occasionally a larger
one will survive the trip and
bury itself in the earth. Speci
mens of these may.be seen :n al
most any museum. Meteorites
are constantly entering the en
velope or girdle of air which
surrounds the earth, but the light
made by their combustion is not
sufficiently- strong - to compete
with the light of the sun, so they
are usually viable only at flight.

II. How can a 4oy f 10 be
taught good table manners?
By precept, by example and by
allowing plenty of time for meals,
Most boys are in a hurry at mesl
time. Excepting for very unusudj
reasons, do not permit the children
to leave the table until all the famt
lv have finished the end of the meal.
This will give a sense of there be
ing plenty of time, and that will help
in the matter of "manners."
