REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
Who Is the Giggler in. Dicky's Studio.
By ADELE GARRISON

Who Is the Giggler in Dicly's Studio.
 "But Dicky! How will you ever get home from Marvin at that hour if there's no taxi running?"
 "On my two feet, goose! What do you think I am, a mollycoddle, that can't walk three-quarters of a mile 2"
 .'But it will be o'clock in the morning and very dark-theres no moon now ,and it's so lonely across those fields and along that brook and lake, and it's likely to storm"
 Dicky interrupted me impatiently.
 "For heavens saks, Madge, what has gotten into you? You neversused to be so fussy. You give a fellow the creeps to hear you. tell yoa I'll be perfectly all right. I don't mind that walk at all. Why. you've taken it with me yourself!
 .Of course have,' T. returned, '.upon a summer evening or a mild winter night with the moon shining. But it looks like a regular blizzard tonight. At least promise me to leave those things picked up at the an tiuue shop which you were going to. bring home with you. They can keep until next week.
 "All rightly Dicky promised impa- tiently. Now. give me kiss and I'll get along. And forget the jim mies.' please, before get home"
 He hurried out of the house, and I stood looking after him, a prey to the very "jimmies'' he had warned me. against.
 It was a morning in the late winter, and Dicky had told me. that because of an engagement with an art editor he would not be home until the last train. The taxi service from Marvin, alw4ys consisting of but one lone taxi, ,. had temporarily gone out. of service with the breaking of that taxi's wheel. This would necessitate Dicky's. walk ing home from the last train at ? o'clock in the morning.
 Thoughts That Trouble.
 Ordinarily would have paid no at- tention to this prospect, reasoning that Dicky certainly was old enough to

The Effective Shopper. .
BX RUTH OA1GRolr

Yesterday I rode to town beside . woman whom have always admired but known very slightly.
 She Is one of those people who do wonders with a small income of both time and money. Her three children are always daintily dressed. her home Is most attractive and she herself looks as smart as a business woman with three thousand year to spend on herself.
 Moreover she is always ready to help with any charity or philanthropy in the town, ever interested in the worthwhile things of the com1aunity or the nation A
 have often wondered how she ac- complished so much and yesterday discovered one of the factors in her efficiency,-namely her methods of shopping.
 In the first place she has a chronic shopping list.
 That is, she keeps a little book in which she jots down the things she needs or will need in the near future.
 She goes in town every other Mon- day morning because Monday Is uAu- ally bargain day. She goes early not only because one gets the best bar gains then but because one can ac- complish twice as much before the more crowded hours.
 Monday Is Not Her Wash Day.
 But Monday. you say. is wash day. the busiest day of the week. Not for her. Monday Is the day she picks up the house gets the clothing. ready for the wash, removing any bad steins and doing any necessary mend ing, but not her wash day.
 Before going in town she takes the Sunday papers and goes over the adr vertisements thoroughly in connec- ton with her shopping list. She sees what shops are advertising specials in the things she needs or is likely to need and she makes out shop ping schedule by shops. For in- stance -''M's-stockings for Junior, handkerchiefs. look at suits. see about bill. R's look at white waists and mems shirts, etc., etc., !. She Doubles the Value, of Her Time.
 She says she can do about twice as much in this systematic way as she could when she went about her shop ping in q casual manner.
 Incidentally she always carries . Christmas list in her bag. glances over it from time to time and often

A mystery fully as deep as any that every held the public attention is ex-
 posed in ''The Page Mystery" which heads the bill at Fox's theater this evening. Of distinctly novel turn is the plot which, contrary to the hackneyed detective story. devolves into an attempt, to establish the inno- cence of several people who unswsrv- ingly maintain that they are guilty of murder. June Elvidge, the clever and popular star of the, ''The Whip," plays the part of a young girl who. immediately after her marriage.

 since the visit to our home of MT. Drake. who was in some mysterious way mixed Up in the fortunes of my father-was. indeed. trying to track him-I had been exceedingly nervous.
 True, Mr. Drake had at the last minute refrained from the bullying tactics he had employed at first to ind out my fathers address. and had tromised me that unless he were com belled to do so he would not annoy inc further about the matter, but tho fear had that there was something wrong with my father, something ''outside the law" in his business. was constantly with me.
 Then. too, this meeting with an art editor," really troubled me. l did not doubt Dicky, and had firmly resolved never to show the least curiosity or feminine jealousy cons cerning his professional engagements. But during the few weeks just pre- ceding this day these engagements with art editors" had become in- creasingly frequent. wondered sometimes and scored myself for the wondering, if Dicky did not find 1t a most convenient excuse for less busi- nesslike~ engagements.
 Katie's behavior, too, worried me. She went about her work listlessly, and I frequently saw the traces of tears upon her cheeks. But tho memory of her hysterical repulse of me when last had tried to find out the reason for her sadness kept me from again proffering my sympathy to her.
 The Brilliant" Idea.
 So, with all these causes for de- pression hung out to air on my men, tai clothesline. managed to work myself into . most unpleasant state of nervous moodiness by afternoon.
 Then came the storm, not the ordi- nary snow storm, but regular coast blizzard. with wind blowing and drifts forming, one of the two or three "snorters,'' as Jim calls them, that come to Long Island each year. Of course, my first concern was for Dicky. The thought of him trying to walk from the Marvin station ter rifled me. The path he was to take was a tortnous one, winding in and out beside the steep banks of a small lake and the stream that fed 1t. There was no railing or other protec- ton beside the lake, and I had visions of FDicky missing the path in the storm and plunging through the ice 20 feet below.
 ''If it were only Crest Haven from which he meant to walk" said to myself. True, it is . much longer walk, a full mile and a half, but his way lies along orderly village streets with plenty of houses to which he could go for shelter.
 Then there dawned upon me the sudden realization of the absolute idiocy of Dicky and me. Crest Haven's taxi service was not broken down. There were a number of taxis there, and although they did not stay ! at the station for the last train, any one of them could be secured on call I went to the telephone at once glad of the chance to do anything tc l end the sense of powerlessness which was gripping me. called the Crest
 Haven Taxi company and made ar ! engagements for taxi to meet the

 Then called DickXs studio. As he took down the receiver and

IRRIGATION In Utah Mountains.

Up In the Utah mountains some very
clever points In irrigation are devel-
oped. One worth this special notice
is In the irrigation of declduous fruit
trees. In this case they had deep,
gravelly soil to deal with and they
found that by frequent irrigations, ap-
piled about once week, they pro-
duced more twig growth in peach trees
with 81 acre inches than with G2
inches. AS regards crops, the frequent
application of water produced the most
fruit. and no amount of water applied
early in the season will compensate for
lack Of water during the month before
harvest. High color of fruit WINS asso-
cinted with late watering and INSULT
Client irrigation produced poor colored
fruit.

To Prevent Iron Rust.

The one peculiar quality that all iron
or its products presents Is the manner
Of its furnishing by the air, or rather
the moisture and oxides of the air. This
tarnish, unlike that of other metals.
does not adhere closely to the iron, but
scales Off and is commonly called rust.
Thus any object made Of iron which
rusts is constantly exposing new sur
faces Of metal, SO that the process
goes on and on unless it is checked.
There are two methods Of preventing
iron rust. One is to keep the metal dry
and highly polished, as n polished sur
face does not give place for any mois-
ture particles to adhere. Knives. tin
ware, stovepipes, etc, which are Kept
polished will not rust. The other
method to prevent rusting is to cover
the metal with coating of oil, wax.
paint or similar substance. For In
stance, metal parts that are treated
with oil or are lacquered or covered
with vnseline will not rust because this
oily coating prevents the air from
coming In contact with the iron.

RAILROAD HAS SPOILED TOWN
Sterling, in the Austrian Tyrol. No
Longer the Pleasant Hating Place
That II Was Years Ago.

STERLING is town of the passer-by,
n hamlet marked by the footprints of
20 centuries of voyaging great men.
The little town. lies In the Austrian
Tyrol, on that railroad which in peace
times runs southwark from Innsbruck
to Verona. Nowadays few voyagers
stop ut Sterzing, for the railroad has
stretched days journey immensely
and thereby deprived the traveller of
most Of those one-night halting places
that were one of the intimate delights
Of old-time travel, If one may believe
the records.
STERLING was such halting place
on the old coach Journey from Ger
many over the Alps to Italy. Even
today 1t impresses you as city that
might best be described as one great
inn. 1t is a typically German inn. in
spite of lying as 1t does on the Italian
slope of the mountains. Its looks and
its habits and its people are German,
though all the Influences of Italian art
and Italian thought flourish only few
hours away. You may pitch chip
into the Brenner river in the morn
ing, and, IL 1t escapes the perils of
navigation, 1t will be in Italy before
