REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
By ADELE GARRISON

"Oh, I beg your pardon, thought you did. This wire is heastly. any, way. Now don't worry, I'll be out on that last train and as long as you're going to have the taxi anyway, I might as we'll bring out those things from the antique shop that have been knocking around here so long. I might put something else in my pocket for a good little girl if she isn't cross."
 <. His tone was elaborately playful. had hard work to make my voice amiable, and made my reply as brief as possible.
 ''Then everything Is all right" said, Goodbye
 I hung up the receiver, sank into the nearest chair and prepared to thrash out with myself the jealousy which had seized me when heard the feminine giggle over the tele- phone.
 I knew as we'll as if the telephone had been equipped with photographic apparatus the scene that was being enacted in Dicky's studio while I was talking to him.
 By my telephoning had interrupted the visit casual or planned. of some girl to the studio. Because for years I had listened to the widely differing notes of schoolgirl giggles. was able to classify the note of laughter had heard.
 It was not the mirth of a very young girl, nor yet the more strident note of the older woman who cannot restrain the impulse to laugh at everything and nothing. It was rather the joyousness of a girl past the school girl stage, whose sojourn in the work-a-day world has not yet been long enough materially to dampen her spirits.
 I reflected that Dicky and she must be on very good terms for her to in- terrupt his telephone conversation as knew she had done when he turned his head away from the telephone and asked What's that?" had cause for reflection also in his unusual play fulness during the minutes immedt- ately succeeding her interruption. It evidently was no part of his plan for me to know anything about this visi- tor to his studio.
 Thoughts TT1at Trouble.
 Who was she? That, of coursA was the question of most importance to me. And I had not far to look for the answer. I knew it even before I asked 1t. Before the eyes of my brain there flashed again the kodak print I had found in the drawer of Dicky's chiffonier, the picture of Dicky stand ing in mock heroic attitude in his, studio and kneeling before him two remarkably pretty girls in cleverly burlesQued attitude. I knew that I should never forget the words written under the print: ..--..
 "Rescuer and rescued, Dickybird, Edith and Leila, Presidents speech, Madison Square Garden"
 Either Edith or Leila. the vir- ginia art students, to whose rescue in the crowd Dicky had gone that night, leaving me stranded in the mob, was his visitor at the studio.
 felt the old weariness of spirit creep over me. had hoped that with the going away of Grace Draper that I had seen the last of outside feminine influence upon my husband.
 But that musical laugh troubled me sorely.

FOOD PRODUCTION
 TO MEET DEMANDS OF WAR
Is Being Urged by the Department of
 Agriculture.


 Washington, April 13.-In it's cam paiGn to awaken the country to need I of greater food production to meet the demands of the war, the department of agriculture today began distribution Tn the United States of an appeal made recently by Premier Lloyd George to he people of England to plant more crops if they hoped to combat the submarine peril.
 ''Whiie the premier's letter is ad- dressed to the people of England, y says q statement accompanying it. cit conveys advice distinctly applicable to the United States and should be heed L. ed by everyone who can do anything to produce food or save food from waste"
 The premier's letter reads: We have now reached a crisis in the war when to insure victory the heroism of our armies at the front must be backed by the self sacfifice and tireless labor of everyone at home. To this end the production of each quarter of wheat and oats and of each
 bushel of potatoes is of vital iTnpor- tance. t
 Unski1led men cannot be expected to do work equal to that of men ex- pert in agriculture. but there is no time fo~ delay and the government is
 confident that farmers will at once
 step forward and do all in thei- power
 to utilize their services to the best
 advantage.
 The farmers of this country can
 defeat the German submarine, and
 when they do so they destroy the last
 hope of the Prussian."
