THE EVENING STORY.
THE GUEST.

Diana Gale stood looking out OF an
upper window. On the lawn below
her handsome husband and her guest,
Miss Geraldine Worth, were playing
croonet- Geraldine's pink cotton frock
was very vivid in the morning light.
She looked like a rose just blown,
with all the luster of dew on 1t, and
she laughed constantly at her own
mistakes. However, Kenneth was
letting her win.
Diana drew a long breath and turned
away. Her glance fell upon her own
reflection in the guestroom mirror,
and she paused contemplating 1t.
The difference between her looks and
Geraldine's was very great. Kenneth
must see 1t. He did. of course, see 1t.
That was the whole trouble. Yet, who
could blame him? He was a man and
he had eyes. And the fact that he was
married to one woman was no reason
at all for him not perceiving the
charms of another. especially when
they were so obvious as those OF Ger
afdine Worth.
Diana added few touches to the
already seemingly perfect grace OF her
Ruestroom and went down to prepare
luncheon. A coal fire kept the kitchen
hot. And the kitchen was of that KIND
into the last remaining corner with
strict economy practiced in the way
of all conveniences. Yet in this tiny,
badly lighted. poorly ventilated ana
step inducing engine room Diana nad
spent every morning of Geraldine
three weeks visit.
Il don't know the first thing about
housekeeping. so if I tried to heip
you I should only be in the way,
Geraldine had said sweetly at the be-
ginning.
Latterly she had not even attended
to her own room. She always de-
layed it or forgot it or left it in some
way so Diana would be sure to 40
it. She was beautifully courteous
and pleasant about everything and
gay1y apologize when apology was
needed, but she had not the least in
tention of doing anything that saw
ored of work. She could. however,
play croquet all the morning, go boat
ing or walking all the afternoon. and
play bridge all the evening without
any visible sign of fatigue. Work
was slack at the Office, and Kenneth
left his clerk in charge a good deal
while he entertained Geraldine.

nurse you if knew how" she said. 49,.
Are you going? Oh. I'm so sorry!
Diana murmured, family.
Yes. I'm all packed. MI. Gale said
he could do better alone. He's terribly
cross. Men always are when you're
sick. 1 don't envy you. Goodbye
dear"
So Geraldine departed. AS her cab
drove up the street Kenneth returned
to Diana. He sat down on the bed and
took her hand. THANK goodness. we've
seen the last of her. he said.
I'm sorry this happened" Diana
sighed, studying him wistfully

your getting sick. l was pleased enough
with her for the first week or so, but
when 1 saw how unjust she was and
how exacting 1 changed my mind about
her. But, Of course, it's up to me to

patted her hand. Say. you're looking

Suit for maintenance has been filed
by Mrs. Margaret NJ. Shinn against
her husband. John B. Shinn, a $4,000
clerk in the office of the surveyor of

The couple were married in Ba1ti-
more July IL, 1910, and have no chill

"Oh. no." Diana cried. She looked
around. where's Geraldine? Didn't
you go on the river? What are you
doing here?"
I'm taking care of you after I've
been fool enough to just about let you
kill yourself waiting on company"
Kenneth said. grimly. 81 thought 1 was
relieving you. too, playing croquet and
bridge and taking her out boating.
The doctor made Diana go to bed and
ordered two or three days Of complete
rest. She's been in the kitchen too
much this hot weather." he said.
Geraldine came softly in with rue
full face to see Diana. I'D stay and

SAFETY AT SEA.

Today the 2.000.-

the Atlantic ocean
every year. not to
mention countless
millions who trav-
erse seas in other
parts of the world,
are safeguarded by
not only the uni
form rules whose
foundations W e re
laid a quarter of q
century ago, but
many new ones.
Some Of these are
to overcome new
elements of danger
brought about by
new discoveries In

use of new discov-
cries and inven-

rules apply to all
kinds Of vessels,
even to the more
than 100000 motor
boats that are es-
timated to be adcat
to-day in American
waters. Since the
adoption Of rules
for ocean traffic the
ratio of wrecks has
greatly decreased,
