Holding a Husband
Adele Garrison's New- Phase of
Hcuciuiions of a Wife
Why Madge Eagerly Accepted the
Suggestion Lillian Offered.
That Lillian comprehended the
dilemma I would face if Mother
Graham carried out her intention of
going to the Sag Harbor real estate
agents and inquiring for property I
saw with one glance at her face,
which she had cupped in her palms
at my mother-in-law's words.
That Lillian had hit upon a solu
tion of the problem I also saw, when
after a few seconds' brown study she
raised her head with some muttered
explanation of a headache, and flash
ed me a signal which meant that I
should pretend to fall in with my
mother-in-law's plans.
"No doubt you are fight, mother,"
I said meekly. "And the car is all
ready. But I ought to fix my hair
a bit." -
"Come up to my room," Lillian
eagerly seized upon the cue I had
given her, "I have an extra comb."
I nodded assent, and walked leis
urely upstairs after her, dropping
the mask of casual indifference as
soon as the door was closed.
"You've thought of something," I
asserted emphatically. "Now, as
Dicky says, 'spill it quick.'"
She smiled provokingly, then ask
ed' significantly:
"Docs your mother know anything
of the mechanism of automobiles?
"No," I answered hopefully.
"Why?"
"Because I should think it mieht
be an easy trick to have something
V niVlljJ WILll tllC lUCViliailinill IU IMC
car just as it reached the Dacey
farm," she responded with a mis
chievous smile.
I stared at her for an instant,
then hugged her ecstatically.
"You darling!" I exclaimed.. "And
of course, it will be the most nat
ural thing in the world for her to
rest under the lilac bushes and the
apple trees, and then Dicky can di
late upon the old house, etc., etc.,
just as we'd planned when we
thought we could inveigle her into a
walk down here. If she doesn't fall
for that"
A Tangled Web.
"Then there's nothing left but to
tell her the truth at once," Lillian
said firmly. "Don't go through the
farce of taking her to the real es
tate offices. It will only make her
more furious when she find? out the
truth. If she were my mother-in-law
" she stopped abruptly.
"Go on," I said peremptorily.
"This thing means a lot to me, and I
tertainly want all the advice you can
give me on it. Frankly, I'm com
pletely at sea a3 to what is best to
do."
"Well, then." Lillian said, "I
would have told her at first that you
had found a house, and let her sizzle
until she evaporated her wrath. But
as it is I would wait no longer than
her enforce'd visit to the Dacey farm
today. If she likes it, you can say,
'Surprise! Surprise!' or its equivalent.
If she doesn't, you can be properely
remorseful, but firm in the true state
ment that it was absolutely the last
resort, and that everybody will have
to make the best of it. Another
ng, if she thinks she has discov-
nlace when you have over-
it she is going to be mighty
supercilious and bossy , about fixing
it up."
"And if she disapproves, as she
will, of anything I have selected" I
began dolefully. Lillian put her
hand reassuringly upon myshoulder
as she interrupted me.
"She'll do that, anyway," she said.
"If you had secured a cross between
an Italian villa and an English an
cestral home with grounds to match
for the traditional song, she would
be bound to disapprove. So why
spend two seconds' thought upon
that angle of it? You know you'll
have a certain amount of unpleasant
ness to go through with about this
place. That's the penalty of the dis
coverers of picturesque ruins."
"I suppose you are right," I said,
sighing at, the tangled web in front
of me, although my common sense
told me that Lillian s advice was the
onlv one to follow.
"Margaret!" My mother-in-law s
voice, peremptory, irritated, floated
up the stairs. I started hastily and
moved to-the door.
"Whose Scheme Is It?
"I'm going to follow you? advice
to the letter," I said.'and then if
anything goes wrong " 1
"You'll have somebody to blame,
Lillian retorted gayly. ('Go ahead!
My shoulders are broad. But let's
hope for the best."
I descended the stairg rapidly, as
suring Mother Graham in passing
that everything was in readiness for
the trip, antl maneuvered so that she
went to the yard for a final look at
Junior, giving me a chance for a
word with Dicky alone. I swiftly

car in front of the Dacey iarm.
"Good enough," Dicky commented
appreciatively. "Whose scheme is
it, vours or Lil's?"
'Lillian's," I returned shortly.
"H'm. I thought I recognized het
fine Italian hand," Dicky commented,
and something in his manner told
me that he was again subconsciously
resenting the deference I gave my
friend's opinions.

Market, Financial and Industrial News of the Day
Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha ltee Leased Wire.
Chicago, June 24. There was con
siderable action in wheat during the
last 30 minutes. There was -persistent
commission house selling during
that time, credited to the account of
a big LeSalle street trader. At last
night's close there was heavy- buy
ing by a house with eastern connec
tions, but the trade believed this buy
ing was for a local long. ," The marr
ket was unchanged at ' the finish.
Corn closed S-8lc lower and oats
were l-83-8c off. Rye was 3-4c
higher to l-8c lower and barley un
changed to 1 l-4c higher. Pork closed
unchanged to 10c higher, lard, 12 1-2
15c up and ribs, 1012 l-2c higher.
Local cash sales were 8,000 bushels
of wheat, 15,000 bushels of corn and
38,000 bushels of oats. One local
broker said that he offered corn to
Buffalo all day at lower prices than
yesterday and failed to get any re
ply. Cash wheat premiums were
firm for choice, but low grade wheat
was heavy. Cash corn basis was l-4c
better and oats unchanged. Ship
ments of 293,000 bushels of corn
yesterday made additional room for
carriers, which accounted for the
broader, spot demand for cash corn,
yessel room was chartered for
50,000 bushels of corn to Buffalo.
Seaboard reported 250,000 bushels of
Manitoba wheat and 200,000 bushels
of corn worked for export.

A St. Louis wire to Bache & Co. said

which sold at $1.46 at auction. The wheat
waa from Arkansas and graded No. 3 red.
Kansas wheat crop this year is esti
mated at 112,914.000 bushels in the
monthly crop report issued today by J.
Jlohler, secretary of the state board of
agriculture. This Is 2,400,000 bushels less
than indicated in the board's May report,
but 10,000.000 bushels more than the June
1 government report. '
Private reports showed heavy rains all
through Oklahoma, northern Texas, great
er part of Kansas and Missouri, and the
official map also showed heavy preciplta
tion. The area of rains is working north
and east and already covers a large part
of winter wheat area being harvested
now. John Inglls had a report from
Oklahoma saying some sections had naa
rains for 16 day and that wheat was
sprouting in the shock in some cases.
Naturally, with the present weather con

wheat.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha ltee Leased Wire.
New York, June 24. The ten
dency of the stock market to recover
vigorously after each spell of weak
ness, which has been rather note
worthy all the week, was again in
evidence today. A few industrial
stocks went lower, but from opening
to close the general movement tf
prices was upward and the day ended
with many net advances ranging
from 1 to 3 points. Most of the buy
ing under which the advance oc
curred was ascribed to repurchase
by speculators for the decline.
How far the better feeling was attrlbut
ablo to the Impression strong -showing of
the reserve banks (whose statements wero
published only after the close of Thurs
day's business) Is a matter of conjecture.
The large gains are still in the eastern
districts; reserve institutions of the south
and west are gaining ground only slowly,
and the general position still seems to be
one In which the process of gradual debt
liquidation Is sending capital back from
the interior to the richer eastern com
munities, precisely as the foreign markets,
which have debts to discharge in America,
are sending gold in quantity to New York.
Nevertheless even surh reserve banks as
that of Dallas are also lowering their rates
and, wholly aside from tho question
whether accumulation of idle gold Is itself
a favorable symptom, the fact of those
high reserve ratt's means that the danger
point in tho credit situation has been dis
tinctly left behind.
Today'a Wall Street market for time
loans and commercial paper was distinct
ly easier.
Foreign exchange rates moved very
slightly, but rates on the European con
tinental markets were higher. The week
end mercantile reviews reflected increas
ing Inactivity of trade and a rather more
general downward trend of prices than
In the two or three preceding weeks.
The government's report on our foreign
trade of May. by countries, ef origin or
destination, gives a striking picture of
the changed conditions. Out of the
$145,700,0011 decrease in totnl exports as
compared with May, 1920. $206,600,00 oc
curred in our trade with Knrope and $9.1.

Urftdstreet'a Trade Review.
New York, June 24. Bradstreet's will
say tomorrow:
"High temperatures and the advance
of the season have made for some in

goods at retail and favored a fairly active
reorder business from Jobbers.- Collec

Irregularities, much needed rains In some
sections, particularly the south, continued
drouth and heat in others, notably the
Atlantic coast states. Impart irregularity
to crop reports, though not materially
changing the good outlook previously not

producing areas. Reflection of this lat

On evening up of July contracts in
anticipation of large notices on Monday
the October premium widened out to 89
points and there was a good deal of
switching from July to later months.

points net lower.
