OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
THE STRUGGLES OF A WIFE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water

Another story was written and
sent out, and it, also, came back.
Perhaps the writer's anxiety gave
a tone of depression to her work.
for with this manuscript came a
note from the editor himself.
we do not like stories that end
unhappily." he wrote. Life has
reading about them. If you have
kept in touch with our magazine.
you must have observed that 1t
aims always to have happy, OPP
timistic outlook"
Myra smiled ironically as she
read this comment. No matter
how one felt, one must write cheer
fully for this particular publica-
tion. probably other publications
had the same policy as this one
had, Just now it was hard for the
would-be author to look at the
bright and sunny side of life.
She laid aside her story with n
sigh. She felt almost discouraged.
1t was well on toward the middle
of the month when she made a
resolution that seemed to her des-
terial to some editor, calling upon
him in person instead of sending
her copy my mail. Since Grace's
friend had said this was the correct
thing to do. she must do it.
She Does 1t in Secret
The wife dared not speak to
Horace about her project. She
knew he would disapprove of it..
He had always felt that a woman's
place was in the house. He hated
the thought of a refined wife and
mother boarding business men in
their dens. But it was no time to
consider such prejudices now that
she must earn money. She must
either dispose of her manuscript, or
sell some of her jewelry.
She would rather ask an editor
to buy her manuscript than let a
secondhand jeweler purchase her
rings.
Yet when. after making an ap-
pointment over the telephone with
an editor whose name she knew
she entered his outer Office and sent
in her card her heart beat so fast
that she felt as If she could scarce
ly breathe.
She glanced at herself in mirror
hanging on the wall, and was
shocked to see how pale she was.
She had worn her best tailored suit
one that had been new and fash
ionable year ago. She had done
this at her daughters suggestion.
"Dess as well as you can. If
you look wealthy and independent,
and as if you had no need to work.
they will be more likely to think
they want your stories" Grace had
declared dryly. Nothing succeeds
like success"
How worldly wise this young
creature was becoming, the mother
unused now. And how hard she was
working! For her sake and for
Horace's sake she. the wife and
mother, must succeed.
AS this thought came to her. she
felt a new courage and lifted her
head defantly.
And when she followed the stem
ographer's bidding and went into
the editors inner office she went
with a firm tread, steady eyes and a
pink glow on her cheeks.

CHAPTER TX.

(Copyright, 1916, Star Coz
The story was returned almost as
promptly as the article had been. The
article was sent out three times in a
month, always with the same result.
What was the matter Myra wonder
ed. Didn't she know how to write?
Surely what she produced was quite
as good as lots of the stuff that she
saw in the various magazines which
she read with the hope of discover
ing just where the secret of success
lay.
She could not hide from Grace the
knowledge of her defeat, but to
Horace she said nothing of it. She
had resolved not to let him know of
her efforts until they met with sue
cess.
Meanwhile, the end of the month
drew near, the date on which Lizzie S
wages would fall due. and there
was not money with which to pay her.
From her meager housekeeping al
lowance Myra had saved small sum
each week. But 1t was not nearly
enough. She must ask Horace to lend
her some money. ct she had told
him that she would not expect him
10 pay for the maids services Il
have arranged to meet that expense
myself" she had said.
So it was with trepidation that she
that was uppermost in her mind.
Horace" she ventured one eve
ming, could you let me have ten
dollars? / mean" - as he glanced up
from his book in surprise could
you lend me ten dollars for a few
weeks"
Her husband looked doubtful
well. you know, Myra," he demur-
red. that 1 am not by way of lend
ing any money to anybody just now.
For how long time will you want
lt?"
For only a few weeks" she
stammered.
It have set aside a part of the
money for my next payment on my
insurance" he said slowly. IF you
are sure you can return 1t by the
last of next month, can spare it."
Promises to Return 1t
Thank YOU. she said. Il will
surely return it."
"How?" she asked herself. But
she was certain that she could earn
it. There still lacked five dollars of
Lizzies wages. She mentioned
this fact to Grace - not as If she
We're worried about it, but just as
bit of information.
You'd best let me lend it to YOU"
Grace offered, "and pay me back
when you can"
THANK you. dear! NIyra ex-
claimed impulsively. She wanted
to put her arms about her child
and tell her of the anxiety at her
heart and OF the love she bore her,
and of what comfort she, in her
young strength, was 10 her mother.
"Oh, that's all right" said Grace
practically.
Her tone did not encourage fur
ther speech on the subject, and the
older woman knew that the girl did
not wish TO hear any more about II.
Grace had done what she could.
Then why not let the matter drop?
That was Grace's way. She was
just like Horace.

Evangelistic Service
al Market Square Church

The evangelistic service at Market
Square Presbyterian Church Monday
was another manifestation of the deep
spiritual interest which has character
lied these meetings. The Rev. DR..
George Edward Halves presented with
persuasive persistence the great spir-
itual fact of the presence of God.
After the regular service a prayer
meeting was held in the church par
lors. While the prayer melting was
in progress, the session met in an ad-
poining room to receive those who
presented themselves for church
membership.
Among those who appeared was a
young man from China who was

casionally keeps the stomach regu-
lated and they eat their favorite foods
without fear.
If your stomach doesn't take care
of your liberal limit without rebellion;
if your food is n damage instead of
a help, remember the quickest,
surest, and most harmless relief is
Pape's Diapepsin which costs only
fifty cents for a large case at drug
stores. It's truly wonderful-it di-
gests food and sets things straight,
so gently and easily that 1t is really
astonishing. Try it!

which portion of the food did the

what you just ate has fermented into
stubborn Jumps; head dizzy and
aches; belch gases and acids and
eructate updigested food; breath
foul, tongue coated-just take little
Pape's Diapepsin and in a few
moments you wonder what became
of the indigestion and distress.

Again President Wilson has
kept the American people from a
long siege of suffering and hard
ships, by having enacted law
whereby the railroads were COM
PEELED to grant the eight hour law
to the railroad employees. 1t
shows that he is with the COM
mon people and not with the mon
ey power. Had the railroads
been victorious, and the strike
not been averted. the people of
the U. S. would have seen some
terrible hard times, and lots of
suffering. The time will come
when the railroads will have to
be owned and controlled by the
Government in order that the
people and employees may be as
sured of fair treatment. Where
is there a President that has had
as much to contend with as Wood
row Wilson, and brought us out
safely, without even causing a
drop of bloodshed. Then stand
