Marriage U like climbing i moun
tain trait.
I.liave Irirurd that today.
Mjr huatwnd and I have jot re
turned from a particularly difficult
cent of one of our beloved Cat
akill mountain, and c are rciinU.
I in hammock twung, bvtweru lo
gnarled old apple trrct. Dicky if
btretched ltiurioii1y pit the Kra at
my feet.
What Dicky i thinking if. in
deed, he is rxrrcUing hi brain at all
I do not know, lor lie hat pulled
hit hat over hi cyn. but to me
there hai come a realization that the
journey Me have jutt ended, it
urtlinnly- like the liie pilKrimmage
Uii-ky and I are taking together
with the one great exception that we
completed our ascent of the moun
tain today, while we arc only a
comparatively short way up that
rocky and precipitous hill called
marriage. '
The start of the trail today was
delightful, a beautiful sun-dappled
I alii which stretched fascinatingly
and mysteriously upward. . So, 1 re
member was our honeymoon, a wonder-time,
a wonder-road, up which
we blissfully wandered, with no
thought of any change in the path
ahead. All the doubts and fears,
the cynicism' with which 1 had ap
proached marriage, had been routed
with the wonder of. Dicky' tempes
tuous devotion.
But all too soon in our climb to
day the path narrowed. ' became
stony, precipitous, precarious. We
were compelled to watch our foot
steps, carefully, for a false step
meant a slip, perchance an ugly fall,
bruises, acute discomfort, if not ac
tual injury.
. Sometimes we had to pull our
selves 'by main strength up partic
ularly difficult places, by grasping
the branches of trees. And evety
where thorhy-viites reached out tind
scratched our hands and faces, while
tiny gnats stinging exasperating!,
buzzed around out heads. With a
mental shrug, I hurried over tho
comparison which flashed only too
plainly before me, of the episodes in
my life juorney with my husband
which were so strikingly like the
.bad places of the pilgrimage today.
.'" But again there were comparative
' ly level spots lovely cool nook9,
vwhere 1he sunlight filtered through
the leaves ' Upon . the moss beneath
the tree's. ' .
K Such visions as these of what
jlife can mean to united hearts also
have been vouchsafed Dicky and me,
in our life together, and come, I am

sure, to every man and wife whose
marriage is worthy the name.
What Madge Wondered.
We passed people coming down
the mountain, discouraged, dis
gruntled, giving up before they had
reached half way to the top, jut at
many persons retreat before the dif
ficulties of life together. But Dicky
and I pertittetd, won at lst to the
summit, and were rewarded by a sun
lit panorama of lake and mountain
and forest, which made ut grip each
other' handt tightly.
Would we ever gain that summit
of achievement in our marriage,
where we could know certainly that
all the unpleasant portions of our
journey together were past, that
nothing but blissful peace lay before
us?
I look down at my husband, and
find that he hat puhcd the hat from
hii eyes and is staring at me quizzi
cally. We-cl-l?'' he drawls.
Stammcringly I try to toll him
something of what I have been
thinking, but I see only too quickly
that he is in anything but a senti
mental mood. '"
'Trobably we'll get to that summit
of peace and joy you're spieling
about." he says, with a provoking
grin, "when we're ready to celebrate
our golden or diamond wedding day.
You know, like those dear old cou
ples that have their pictures in the
papers with the caption, "He never
.'aid a cross word to her." Personal
ly, I think either the consciences or
the memories of those old people are
at fault. We couldn't have any such
caption. I might say: 'She never
biffed me with a rolling pin.' but
that's as far as 'I could truthfully
go. And to tell you the truth, old
dear, I wouldn't give a tinker's cuss
for a continual peaceful valley or
glorious mountain-top in mine. It
would be too monotonous. And
whatever our life has been, old girl, I
don't think the most captious critic
could say that it has been monoto
nous." 1 have realized before that Dicky's
volatile nature demands excitement,
variety, and I have wondered some
times how long I. with my rather
methodical, prosaic temperament,
could hold him loyal to me.
There has been a long stretch cf
peaceful valley in our life journey
since the awful day when our baby
boy was stolen from us by Grace
Draper's pitiful tool, Tim. I came
very near banishing my husband
from my heart at that,time, because
of his absence motoring with Edith
Fairfax during the awful first hours
of Junior's disappearance, but

Dicky's terrible renwr.c and the re

grthrr again, and 1 have been given
no reason to doubt him since, It he
perhaps, beginning to weary oi the
uneventful quiet tenor ol our wayf
The summer month have gone
wiftly since that terrible experience,
witn my mo.t serious worry, tne
condition of Lillian L'nderwood. She
rallied so slightly, gained strength

of her former sett, she was able to

Of course there was but one place
to which Robert Savarin would hear

Dicky "Retolvet."
Of Grace Draper, since that night
of Junior's recovery and her melo
dramatic eccpe we have heard
nothing. She hat vanished as if the
had bitn snatched from the earth.
That Hugh Grantland will not rest
until the it found and put where the
can menace me no more. I am cer
tain, but of that loyal, true-hearted
friend I have had no word tince
the night he bade me farewell, save
the inevitable postcards simply bear
ing his address, which he sends me
whenever his duties call mm to a
new place.
The man across the road was sent
to prison for a long term, and only
up here in this out-of-the-way moun
tain resort, am I beginning to es
cape the publicity consequent upon
his trial after Junior's recovery.
It has been a wonderfully restful
time for me, with Lillian slowly
gaining strength, and with Dicky
spending a Rood deal of time with
us there is a uttie ciutcn at my
heart at the thought that he may
not love 'the peaceful valley or
gloriously mountain-top" as I do.
Perhaps he reads my thoughts, bet
ter than I imagine, for he sits up,
moves to the side of the hammock
and possesses himself of one of my
hands.
"Look here, old dear," he says,
with a tenseness beneath his careless
manner that tells me of strong feel
ing. "Just let me tell you one thing.
I may not care for monotony, but
there's one kind I'm going to culti
vate hereafter, and that's the ' fem
inine line. No more platonic or jazz
acquaintances, no more drives or
teas or studio dances. I'm going to
be the most domestic guy you ever
saw in your life. I'm THROUGH
in large capitals. Whatever va
riety in life I get and you know I
crave variety you'll have to provide
it with a row, a career or a flirtation.

These 21,000 represent more than one-third of
our average number of employes !
One man out of every three, in plant, office, and
branch house, from the handworker on the floor to the
brainworker at the desk, working with us as well as
for us; devoting himself to his own business while -devoting
himself to ours; promoting his own interests

"Know Rosie? Well of coure I

plied when asked about the former
Winter Garden favorite who is now
Mr. Lewis Hurgest of this city.
Miss Doner had espied Mr.
Durgest in the big Tuesday night

said Kittie expressivelv, "She was
always laughing. Nothing rver
teemed to go wrong with her, She
and her pal, Kathrriue Perry, who
hat just married Owen Moore, used
to be laid off about every other
week for giggling.
"When hc lirt played with ficr

"After she studied with Koslolf, she
showed marked advance in poise and

been a second Marilyn Miller, if
"Well I know she married fr

"for Komc could have, married any

caressing her words, "she could have
