REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
By ADELE GARRISON

Draper, who had fled to him in South America after her last mad attempt to win Dicky from me.
 What Madge Said. took a sudden resolution. I could not bid Robert savartn to stay but I at least could give him an inkling of how matters stood. When I had told him Lillians story, had stopped with her husbands desertion of her. I had l said no word of Harry Underwood's coldly cruel proposal of divorce. There's something I think you ] ought to know before you fully decide to go away said timidly. He turned to me quickly. "Ten 1t to me at once," he. said peremptorily, and I saw that his teel- ing for Lillian was SO strong that in discussing any matter concerning her he lost sight of the courtesy of speech due any one else.
 told him in as few words as pos sible of Harry Underwood's demand for divorce, Ltllian'4 refusal to give him one, her reasons for her refusal and my conviction that some way in defiance of all law and reason, Harry Underwood's indomitable will would find way to bring Lillian to his terms. He listened quietly and only the clenching of his nervous fingers into the palms of his hands betrayed the agitation he must have felt at my recital. At it's close he was silent for a long minute, and then he cried out fiercely, passionately:
 eff She Could Only
 "If she could only care for me, would feel that I had the right to fight her battles for her! But as that is impossible, I am tied. impotent"
 What makes you so certain that it is impossible?" asked, my heart beating wildly with the daring of my own question. But something quite outside of myself seemed urging me on to say things I had thought not to utter.
 What do you mean?" he counter queried, whirling and seizing my arm in 8 grip that hurt.
 Nothing" I said. "only that think you under estimate your own power. I know that Mrs. Underwood remembers your early friendship with much pleasure, and-I do not see why you shouldn't try to win her."
 He held me by the arm, looking at me steadily for 8 minute. knew that he was looking into some possibility of the future. At last he loosened his grasp and spoke slowly, heavily.
 II wish I could believe you, but I cannot. No, there is but one thing I can do for Mrs. Underwood, and I hope I shall have strength given me to do that thing when the time comes.'

SIDE TALKS
A Pair of Si k Stockings
BY RUTH CAMERON

The authorman's wife was most in dignant "No wonder" she said, '.that you can't get a good old fash toned servant when people like her spoil them so."
 What do you think the spelling" was? Her neighbor had given her maid a pair of silk stockings for Q birthday present.
 No wonder they put on airs" fussed the authorman's wife, when they are. encouraged to like that. Such an unsuitable present! Half a dozen cotton ones or a good apron would have been much more suita- ble!"
 The authorman's wife has many good qualities but there are times when she makes me very cross. And this is one of them. She Dosen't Like To See The Maid
 Have Nice Things.
 She loves silk stockings and wears them as often as she can/ afford it :? Why shouldn't the maid do the same? And anyhow it is not ques- tion of affording when a thing is a birthday present
 I am afraid the authorman's wife simply resents tho maids having the same sort of pretty things she has herself And there are few things that exasperate me more than this at- titude.
 Many people seem to think that be- cause folks are poor they ought not to care what they wear if only it is clean and whole. Their ideal poor person is poorly but neatly dressed and thankful for any garment they

Why Madge Felt That She Must Give Robert Savarin Some Hope in
 His Despair of Lillian.


 I have never seen a sadder face than Robert Savarin's as he finished telling me of his early hopeless love for Lillian Underwood. when, as a girl, she frightened with her pretty fresh enthusiasm his dingy studio. He gazed down the stream, which lit by dancing sunbeams. flowed be- heath our feet as we stood upon the old bridge, and in his look was such anguish of regret that I turned away my face.
 Perhaps you can guess now why I must not stay longer at your home, " he said at last, measuredly. l I turned to him helplessly, for did not wish to forestall his confidence. -"You mean"
 l That the sight of Mrs. Underwood ] has brought back to me tenfold the | feeling with which I once regarded | her." he said tensely. And the strength, of my will is broken. I can not be near her and not let her know how I feel toward her. She isn't free | even to listen to me. Therefore-lt IS better-that I go away"
 He stopped and gazed down the stream again, while I wrestled with the temptation to urge him to stay at any cost, and to reveal to Lillian everything he had told me. For, despite my Puritan training, or perhaps, queerly enough because of 1t. I have no sympathy with, no rever- ence for the marital tie which binds Lillian and Harry Underwod to- gether. Lillian had married Harry Underwood before the death of her first husband, the unspeakable Nor ton, whose unjust divorce of her had shadowed and branded her life. The later marriage was, a s I knew, simply one of convenience and of comfort. In the real, true sense 1t was no mar riage at all, although Lillian had played the role of devoted wife as whole heartedly as she did anything entrusted to her.
 And Harry Underwood had reward ed her years of care and tenderness by deserting her when she brought home her child from whom she had so long been separated, calmly re- questing in a letter from South Amer ica that she divorce him. This Lil- Han was determined not to do, be- cause of the stigma that would attach to little Marion were her mother again to appear in divorce proceed ings, but secretly I did not gee how she woud be able to avoid it. -. If Harry Underwood was determined to drag her through the divorce court he would do it, especially when urged on, I was sure he was. by Grace
