REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
BY ADELE GARRISON

1--WE mustn't talk any longer, how
ever" she said briskly. '"They Will be
wondering all sorts Of things IN there
and we can accomplish nothing by
talking 1t over further tonight. Here
let me touch you up a bit so they
won't notice the traces of tears"
She went to the bothroom adjoin-
ing and returned with a small towel
wet with cold water. With this she
bathed my eyes, dried them, busted
a little rice powder around them, and
pinched my cheeks a bit to bring back
the color
"There!" she said, holding me away
from her, "Madge is herself again.
Come along.
''You Need Help"
She put the note in the lockbox in
which I knew she kept her important
papers and then went back with me to
the living room.

up" Alfred Durkee cried boisterously
as the men sprang to their feet at
our entrance. whatever have you
been doing-inventing a new subma-
rine Destroyer"
How did you ever guess it ?" Lii
liam retorted lightly. 1--WE always
known there must be some use for
that flow Of language of yours and
we've devised a chain. Of explosive
balloons extending from the destroyer
to the sub. ALI you'll have to do Is
to talk twenty-four hours instead Of
twenty and the imitation will be con-
stant."
Young Durkee made a dash for
her, which Lillian evaded laughingly

His eyes, deep and tense with emo

Hatred.
BY RUTH CAMERON

Hatred is the vice Of narrow souls;
they feed it with their littlenesses.
-Balzac.
What silly things feuds are!
To take some little offense. some
small wound to your vanity or some
divergence from your notions of
good taste. and to build out of it a
barrier of dislike, habit Of hatred,
Is surely as Balzac says 1.-The vice Of
narrow souls"
And yet how many people there are
who really enjoy these petty feuds. I
do verify believe that there are people
who enjoy meeting someone with
whom they have such a feud and
passing by on the other side of the
street with averted head, more than
they enjoy meeting a friend.
The Butcher Who Wouldn't Advertise
TN Her Church Paper.
There is one woman in our neigh
borhood who has not enough to oc-
cupy her mind and consequently
makes a great deal Of such feuds.
She has long list of them tabulated
in her mind. There Is the butcher
who refused to advertise in her
Church paper ten years ago. She
withdrew her trade from him and
never loses chance to speak slight
ingly Of his standing as a butcher and
a man. There is the neighbor whom
she fancies fancies herself above her

FLAME OF THE YUKON
SUPERB SPECTACLE

Kennth Harlan, who takes the part
Of "the stranger" opposite Dorothy
Dalton in the new Triangle-Ince pro-
duction, THE Flame of the Yukon
has made good the predictions OF GER
tain keen observers regarding his
suitability for screen acting. Har-
Ian left Gertrude Hoffman's Sum-
urun' company early last winter to
become a member Of the Fine Arts
Stock Company at Hollywood. With
out previous experience as an actor In
the silent drama he was Immediately
given the leading male parts IN
"Betsy's Burglar" and Cheerful Civ
ers" In both plays he won favor
able attention, and when the Fine
Arts acting forces were disbanded
Harlan was one of the first players
to be engaged by Thomas H. Ince.
In 1.-THE Flame of the Yukon"
Harlon has ample opportunity to dis
play his ability as an actor of thor
ough training and real inspiration.
In the role OF "the stranger" who
comes to the frozen north to, seek
his fortune without money, friends or
the proper equipment, Harlan has to
rely on the magnetism of his person
atty to win the attention of his au-
QlenCe Els well dS the WlOle-HedTtou
sympathy Of "The Flame" played by
Dorothy Dalton. AS a matter Of fact,
Harlan accomplished both of these
objects with ease and rapidity. When
he enters the dance hall, over which
The Flame" rules, his money belt
is apparently we'll filled, and he is
endeavoring to present the appear
ance of a man Of means and spirit.
AS q result, he is looked upon as fair
game by "Black Jack" Hovey, pro-
prietor of the dance hall, who in
structs THE Flame" to fleece the
prosperous looking prospector. How
results in an entirely different stu
alton. THE Flame falls under the
sway of The Strangers winning
smile. and when he discloses to her
the fact that his belt is filled with
sand instead of gold and that, far
from being q success as a, gold dig
ger, he is really the latest kind of
failure the girls love is touched, and
she insists on stalking him to a new
start. From this point the lives Of
the two strange children Of the frost
become inextricably interviewer in a
thrilling series of events. Harlan rises
to every opportunity that is presented,
and the characterization that he pre-
sents is strong, vivid and well found
ed. While supervising this picture
Thomas H. Ince made the declaration
that Harlan should soon develop into
one of the big personalities of the
screen.

Lillian. who had just made visible the

Allen Drake was the name by

who had managed to get an invitation
to dinner at our home from Dicky,
and then had seized the opportunity
to tax me with the fact that I was the
daughter Of Robert Gordon. He had
also urged me with words that held a
covert threat to reveal my fathers
address to him.
Everything about the mans words
and manner gave me the impression
that he was an enemy of my fathers
or at least no friend Of his. I set him
down as a ruthless man trying to
track my father down for some pur-
pose of his own or of his employers.
Lillian had told me that a man an
swering his description, whom she
knew, was a government agent, Of
this or some other country, and we
had dreaded lest his inquiries about
my father meant that Robert Gordon
had broken the law.
"Come Along"

that the code in which the letter was

"Oh, how I wish we could get some

There is another neighbor whom she
declare once tried to get a maid away
from her. And other similar often
ders too numerous to mention. To
all these people she does not speak.
But she more than makes up for it
by speaking about them.
One Shouldn't Bother With Her.
Now of course it is natural that
one should not love a neighbor who
tried to get ones maid away from
one. But why bother oneself to have
a feud with her? She isn't worth it,
I say. One lowers oneself too much
in entering into such a. relationship.
One need not go out of ones way to
meet her but neither should one go
out of ones way to avoid her. That
is too much degnifying her position
