REVELATIONSOF A WIFE
By ADELE GARRNgON

 Weary and Reckless.
 Give us another, Ldl," he called cheerily when she had made us gro- tcsque bow, and waddled, still in imi- tation of Betty, to her chair You're in ripping good form tonight
 'No," Lillian shook her head with flnality. T knows when to quit, does. Quit while yoh repertations s good, dat's my policy''
 Immense! isn't she?" There was such a note of sincerity in the words that l forgave Harry Underwood much of his unpleasant nonsense on account of them. There was real ad- n1irat1on of his wife in them.
 I told myself that probably I was letting my imagination. run away with me concerning both his feeling toward me and Dicky's admiration of Grace Draper. Someway the homely wholesome little words of tribute to his wife steadied me, brought me back to sanity. With an effort l leaned forward toward Miss Draper forcing my voice to cordiality. "Dicky tells me you have such a l wonderful new dance, Miss Draper, J ! said "Won't you let us see t?' Tt is nothing wonderful" the girl replied, "but there are some new steps l in it. If you care to see it, I should 1 be glad to give it, provided I can have music"
 1 Always glad to oblige," Dicky re- l turned f1ippantly, and walked to the piano. "The same old thing?' he l Gueried over his shoulder
 'Yes, I think that will be best,' she | 1eturned and with a single deft
 movement she united the silken scarf | which draped her waist. With il l hanging loosely from her hands she advanced to the middle of the room l and stood with head bent listening tC l the preliminary strains of the music l Dicky was playing.
 I had the sensation of a douche O1 | cold water being thrown over me
 This was no accidental rendition | They had rehearsed this thing, Dicky
 must often have played for this gir | to dance!
 I felt suddenly weary, old, reckless
 as if I did not care what happened tC
 mo. Lillian must be wrong. Dicky's
 infatuation for this girl before us was l something which could not be cured

"As If l Were Her Age"

why, she insisted on my coming in and she showed me all over the house and made tea for me and talked to me just as if I were her age"
 As write that, 1t sounds to me like what a little girl might say if some grown-up lady honored her by treat ing her just as if she were grown-up, too.
 But it isn't.
 On the contrary, the speaker was an old lady.
 While calling on one of her own friends in the farther part of the town she had stopped at the nearby home of one of her grandchildren's newly-wed friends to leave message. She Wasn't Treated With the Courtesy
 Due Her.
 And instead of being treated with the courtesy due her, she had been met with the warm friendliness that some natures are ever quick to give.
 No long preachment on how much 1t means to the old to have the young folks not merely treat them courteous ly, but make friends with them, would have impressed me half so much as the sparkle in that old lady's eyes and the happy note in her voice as she told of her call
New Britain herald., 1916-08-12

She had evidently had memorable afternoon. Some day I'm going to tell that warm hearted girl how much she gave in thus opening her heart and home to her visitor. Youth is so rich in life and spirits that 1t scarcely realizes how much it gives-or withholds.
 They Like to Warm Their Hands.
 Youth is warmth and light and life. Older people love to warm their hands at the blaze. They cannot get the warmth into their blood as it used to be, but at least they can feel its glow and that is something.
 Another old lady in my own house. hold spoke of a young girl who some times calls me up on the telephone. "I love to answer when she calls" she said, i've have the loveliest talks. She isn't a bit like the ones who just ask how I feel because they know they ought to-"
 Children's delight in being treated like their elders is amusing.
 The old folks pleasure in being treated like young people is infinitely touching.
 It makes one ashamed that one has not given far more of what is so littler to give and so big to receive.

Smothcrs Turks Who Are Forced 10 Retreat After Wing Of Force EaAls Into Hands of Enemy.

London, Aug. 12, I2:15 p. m-The admission is made in a telegram re- celved today from Constantinople, that the Turks were compelled to fall back after the recent battles with the British east of the Suez canal.
 Turkish forces which advanced for reconnaissance made attacks on strongly consolidated positions of the enemy" the despatch says. ''They Oc- cupied the first line trenches and to- ward evening reached the barbed wire obstacles of the enemy's main posi- ton.
 Meanwhile a gigantic sandstorm came up and impeded cur left wing, preventing prosecution of the recon naisance of this area. The enemy, as sisted by deta tachments of troops with camels and by endorsements drawn from the direction Of E1l Kantara and Duidar, took advantage of this situa tiOn. He made a surprise attack on the rear of our left wing, part of which, after long Lighting, fell into his hands. We left in the position some machine guns which we had rendered unusable.
 lowing to this incident we withdrew our troops in the direction of Katia.
 "On August 5 the enemy, with all forces attacked our troops encamped in the district of Katia, but was re- pulsed with severe loss in a counter attack. We withdrew that night east of Katia.''

Why Did Dicky Say "The Same Old Thing?'' to Grace Draper?

do not think one of the group in cur living room at Marvin uttered sound for several minutes after liar ry Underwood finished his rendition cf "Tell Her Love Her SO.'
 The singer himself sat motionless, his hands on the keys as he had laid them in the last pulsating note of the wonderful melody. When the spell of his voice faded away I awOke to a ehrewd suspicion that the mans pose was a carefully calculated one, meant to impress me with the idea that he was lost in the imagery of his own singing.
 I,illian's eyes were breeding, far away. I had studied her enough to know that whatever associations the song held for her, they were not con- nected in any way with the man who had sung the song, the man with whom she was yoked in a marriage which she herself described as an arrangement in which they logged along very comfortably by each al- lowing the other the fullest latitude" ." Grace Draper leaned forward with l rarted lips and shining eyes, but she i did not give the singer the cOmpliment l O looking toward him. Her gaze was 1 fixed on Dicky, a primitive, ompelling l look. For once she had forgotten her | faultless veneer of manner, and the naked soul of the girl looked out un- ashamed. I shivered and my eyes went to Dickys face. I turned them 1 away again instantly, for Dicky's eyes were upon the girl. I could better toi int hn nY- to read in my husbands eyes, as feared might, an answer to the un- spoken appeal of the seductive crea- | ture at his side.

 Whether or not Harry UnderwoO 1 really had counted upon his singins 1 making an emotional appeal to me do not know. But if he had he overdit the matter by his theatrical lingering at the keys after the song. By the time he turned around and crossed the room to me, I had forgotten the effect of the song upon me in my agitation over the evident absorption or Dicky in Grace Draper.

Household Notes.

Good lard Is much better than but ter for basting roasted meat and for frying.
 Use very little bluing in washing of blue.
 People who use tin cans for canning should be careful never to put vinegar in them.
 Rusty irons should be heated, rubbed on 8 piece of beeswax tied in linen, and then with a coarse flannel cloth sprinkled with household salt. This will give a polish like glass.
 Avocado salad is made of the chilled avocados pared and halved, then filled with French dressing, the edges being garnished with slices of stuffed olives.
 Rusty steel should be covered with sweet oil, well rubbed in and in fortv- eight hours use unslaked lime finely powdered and rub until all the rusy disappears.
 If the plumbing about the house is shabby and new nickel piping out of the question, give it all a coat of alum mum paint and it will at least look fresh and clean.
 If you are mixing a pudding OF cake with a wooden spoon beat the mixture with the back of the spoon. It is far easier and becomes beautifully light in half the time.

Galrison's Resignation.

The sudden resignation OF Mr..
Garrison as secretary Of war and of
Mr.. Breckenridge as assistant secre-
tary has filed the Democrats with
dismay, for the shrewder among
them recognize this as 1.-The begin
ming Of the end" Of the Wilson adj
ministration.
OF all the men in President Will
sons cabinet, Mr.. Garrison was the
only one who had attracted popular
approval as forceful, fearless, up
right man, and all familiar with the
facts realize the truth Of Colonel
Haryey's statement that Garrison
resigned because he refused to con-
tinue as clerk under Woodrow
Wilson," an explanation which, COM
ing from the original Woodrow Will
son man, and even now his friend,
is potent for political injury.
On almost every important prob
lem of the Wilson administration
Secretary Garrison has stated his
position fearlessly and unequivocally
and in almost every instance his
views have been bitterly opposed by
McAdoo-often by Bryan and
Daniels-and finally rejected by Mr..
Wilson. This has been peculiarly
true of the Philippines, where twice
Mr.. Garrison has been on the point
Of reslgning, OF the Mexican policy.
and OF the administration Of the
army.

Garrison and McAdoo.

There was no member Of the cabi-
net who felt so keenly the impro-
priety and injustice to other cabinet
officers involved in President VIII
sons retention Of his son-in-law in
the cabinet. He felt that it placed
other cabinet officers in a position
where they could not oppose Mr..
McAdoo's schemes without opposing
o member of the presidents own
family and perhaps mourning the
very effective opposition of the presi-
dents fAvorite daughter.
Judge Garrison and McAdoo took
Numerically opposing views OF
practically every question and Nc
Adoo came thoroughly to dislike the
secretary OF war. A notable instance
Of this was seen when. recently, it
was discovered that while the secret
service, under McAdeo. was being
financed by Mr., Garrison. through
q war department appropriation, in
the investigation of those neutrality
violations which led to the demand
for Captain Boy-Ed's recall, Mr. Nc
Adoo was causing the investigations
to DO made by the investigating
force of the department of justice for
reasons he doubtless could explain
II he would.

Opnosins Mexicnn Policr,

Secretary Garrison, while never
pressing his views, never failed 70
express in unmstakable disapproval
OF President Wilson's Mexican policy.
In the summer of 1913 one OF the
largest manufacturers OF arms and
ammunition advised Secretary Bryan
that they had received a large order
for rifles and cartridges from Mexico.
that they hated to fill the order be-
cause they believed that ultimately
these very rifles would be turned
against American soldiers, but that
unless the president would restore
the embargo on arms going into
Mexico they would be obliged to fill
1t or their competitors would, Mr..
Bryan inquired IL the arms were for
Huerta or the insurgents, and, on be-
ing told they we're for the lnsur-
gents, replied that there was no OBJ
lection to the order being filed.
Secretary Garrison learned the facts,
however, before an answer had gone
back to the manufacturers and went
four times in single day to plead
with the president to restore the
embargo-but, Of course, without
avail.
