Their Married Life
Helen Buys Some New Clothes But Warren Does Not
Approve.

TTELEN had allowed suspicion to
color her days with tragedy. She

TO no purpose. the dread fear OF some
thing occurring at any time was slow
y poisoning her mind
When she thought it all over she had
nothing at all on which to base her
suspicious Just the fact that Warren
had accepted rather willingly her ex-
PLANTATION concerning Ned Burns. Helen
reasoned that there were Just two
things that might have given Warren
reason TO act as he had. Either he
was guilty himself in some way. no
matter how slight. or else he no longer
thought her attractive enough to be
jealous That last thought was horri-
Die Rapidly she ran over the last few
times they had been out together
Helen had never had any cause 20
envy other women in spite OF the fact
that she was never extravagant- She
was always well dressed. and although
she did not cater to the extreme in
fashion. still sEe was not numb ered
among the strictly conservative There
was nothing remarkably striking about
her appearance,
She was like many other sweet. at
tractive women. wholesomely healthy
But II Warren were neglecting her for
another more attractive woman, or II
she nc LONGER interested him as a wife
but was merely a household appendage,
something would certainly have to be
done
Helen thought rapidly. She had not
bought anything new for some time.
She remembered that she had been
trying TO hold down the bills and yet
when they had been presented to War

her last parcel she smiled to herself
at what she had done.
Mary came into the bedroom after
she had reached home and had flung
her things on the bed.

he said he'd call you up at 12I5.'

The discussion started because Stan

IL was the new song that Al JoIson

the sensation Of the big Winter Car

as II has caught thousands of others.
The lyrics stuck in his mind and the
next day he found himself whistling

Of course as everybody SHOWS. even

TO causes which cannot be discussed

For that reason a mean sun" has
been invented which keeps the average

Now. the fact is that the inner moon
is 10000 miles from Mars. whereas.
the diameter OF the planet being 1000
miles, GuIIiver's estimate would place
1t at 1900 miles. For the outer moon
he gives 10000 miles as the distance,
which is really 5000 miles. The
time Of revolution for the inner moon
is actually seven and a half hours

-EW YORK, June 24.-One OF the
Nj delights promised for the. new
l. season is a new comedy by Will

The play has added interest because
the author is now serving in The med

front where he has been since the be-
ginning Of the war.
Mr.. Vaughan will get leave Of abb

Calling II o'clock noon does not make
