Holding a Husband
Adele Garrison's New Phase of
Revelations of a Wife
The Question About Dickey
That Worried Madge.
All the strength left me went into
the rush of thankfulness which swept
over me as I heard Mother Graham's
voice and realized that despite the
angry scene in which we had been
opponents but a few moments before
she had come to take care of me.
My mother-in-law is like some hus
bandsand wives. You can neither
live with her nor without her. This
was distinctly one of the times I felt
that I could not live without her.
She closed the door upon the peo
ple whom she had shooed away from
the door, came over to the berth
i and stood looking down at me. She
had seen me in tw.o or three similar
attacks, knew exactly what I needed
and knew that there was no neces
sity for her to feel my forehead or
pulse, something for which I was
grateful.
"We'll get one thing over with
first, Margaret," she said in as matter-of-fact
tones as if she had been
proffering me a drink of water. "You
know I didn't mean a word I said
a little while ago," and I know you
aren't angry any jonger. So, that's
over with and I can take care of you.
Now you don't need to speak or
listen again. Just lie perfectly still
and I'll attend to everything."
I felt a lessening of my nervous
tension just at the very timbre of her
voice. Weakly I reflected upon the
anomaly of my mother-in-law being
able to help me best of any one in
this crisis when she so often drives
me almost mad with her exactions.
But help me she did from the first
second of her entrance.
Swept By a Chill.
My father had taken Junior with
him. I had heard the baby's prattle
as he was carried through the door,
so that We were alone in the draw
ing room, another thing which gave
my overstrained nerves relief. I was
fanciful enough to feel oppressed
even by the sound of my little child's
voice, usually the sweetest music in
the world to me.
But my mother-in-law's move
ments were almost soundless. I
knew by a sort of instinct that she
went through my bag with deft fin
gers and took therefrom the loose
gown for which my body, con
strained in a traveling suit, longed
intensely. A moment later I felt
her astonishingly tender fingers re
move my shoes and stockings and
loosen my garments.
"There, now, just turn over this
once," she said softly after a little,
"and you can be, comfortable."
I drew a sigh of relief: as the soft
folds of my loose dressing gown set
tled around me. I stretched luxuri
ously once, then fell to shivering
violently as a sudden chill seized me.
I felt I never would be warm again.
' My mother-in-law wasted no
time in words. She hutidled the
blankets around me, piled my clpak
and her own on top of them, itien
as I still shivered, she opened the
door into the corridor and spoke
sharply;
"Where is that hot water bag you
spoke of getting filled?"
Little Mrs. Durkee's indignant
voice replied: I
"There's something gone wrong
with the hot water pipes, and the
porter says we can't get a drop un
til the diner comes o,n. But Maj.
Grantland has 'a spirit lamp in his
kit and he is heating some. Here he
comes now." -
"I hope I have not delayed you."
The deep voice of the army officer
sounded clearly in my ears. "Here
is the hot water. Is there anything
else I can do?"
"Fill that bag, Mrs. Durkee," my
mother-inlaw commanded laconical
ly, then she paused for an instant
before answering thf major's query.
"Nothing, unless you an get me
something with some warmth in it
to put around Mrs. Graham," she I

All her life little Miss Dong Fung
Gue had been waited upon. She was
said tartly at last. "She has a severe
chill, and these car blankets are like
so much paper."
There was another pause, then
Hugh Grantland's voice sounded
again, this time with a metallic ring
in it.
"Miss Brown, may I trouble you
for that cloak?"
I could visualize the scene as well
as if I were on the other side of the
door could see Rita Brown,
haughty, selfish, inconsiderate, mak
ing no move to relinquish the cloak
which she was wearing because of a
skilfully planned maneuver could
see , also the chagrin) which must
have been hers at Maj. Grantland's
terse command.
Lost in Doubt.
But she was clever enough to
meet the situation to "save her
face," in Chinese parlance.
"Oh, I beg your pardon," she said
sweetly. "I really didn't hear what
you were talking about. This will
be the very thing for Mrs. Graham.
I'll defy any cold to come through
that fur."
"This is something like," my
mother-in-law commented grimly.
"Thank you, Maj. Grantland. Now
I shan't need any of you any longer.

RECIPES OF OUR PIONEER MOTHERS

were wonderfully dependable. True,
they knew nothing of drugs, but
owed their success to the roots,
herbs and barks of the field. It is
interesting to note that Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound,
the most successful remedy for fe
male ills we have, was originally
prepared for home use from one of
these recipes. Its fame has now
spread from shore to shore, and

not even allowed to comb her own
hair. "Chinese girls aren't expected
to do anything," she declares. Being
a modern woman of the 20th
century Dong craved self-expression
and independence. The footlights
called. Mother objected in vocifer
ous Chinese. But this shy and very
pretty oriental miss persisted. And
here she is now on the stage, ap
pearing this week at the Orpheum
and delighting her audiences ' with
songs and dances. She is ably sup
ported in her act by H. Gee Haw.
Miss Fung Gue, whose name
means "Flower of Happiness," was
born in Canton, China, but has lived
in America since she was 3 vears
old.
Her father was a well known Chi
nese physician and surgeon of Chi
cago. Dong attended aprivate school in
Chicago and was a 'student at Yassar
for a short time. Seated in her
dressing room Wednesday afternoon
she smiled as she referred to her col
lege days. "I didn't stay in college
'very long," she said. "The call of
the footlights was too strong. My
brother, who is also on the Orpheum
circuit in a Chinese quartet, helped
me. get my start."
She also credits much of her suc
cess to her manager, who arranged
the sketch and taught her the songs
and dances.
The oriental stage setting for the
act is most striking. The gorgeous
costumes worn by Miss Fung Gue
and Mr. Haw were imported from
China and are more than 300 years
old, having belonged at one time to
members of the royal castle in
Peking.
Miss Fung Gue's ambition is to
become a great actress. She is de
voted to her family and is helping
to educate her younger brothers and
sisters, one of whom graduated with
highest honors from a Chicago high
school in June.
Dong likes her native fashions,
but prefers American garb for street
wear because she feels less con
spicuous. In her neat little tan suit,
made on very tailored lines, tiny tan
walking boots and large white straw
sailor with rolled brim, she is "all
American" in appearance.
Richard, you can stay outside, if I
want anything."
"Very well," Dicky replied do
cilely. Through my inert weakness
flashed an intolerable pain of doubt.
Had my husband accepted that dic
tum either because he did not care
about my illness, or because he was
still angry about the cloak which
Maj. Grantland had brought to pro
tect me during the motor ride from
Marvin to New York?

Measures up to the best ideals in mattress-making without
any added cost for things that might be considered
fastidious or unnecessary. It is the kind of
mattress thousands of intelligent
people want. Y'
How it is made
THE cotton is taken from the bale, passed through a power machine
opener and duster, which thrashes out all impurities and loosens
up the fiber. It is thenvplaced in the hopper of a Web Process
Felting Machine where it is taken up by a feed apron into an intricate
system of toothed rollers. The fibers are here combed, crossed and re
crossed and knit into filmy gossamer webs of uniform fineness and x
texture.
It takes twenty of these webs, mattress size, to make one pound, ,
. and almost a thousand are used to make an Or-Wi-Co.
Being made throughout by expert workmen, we can guarantee that
it will not matt nor require remaking. Just an occasional sun-bath
will make it last indefinitely.
