REVELATIONS OF WIFE
BY Adele Garrison

Harry Underwood tone was one
that almost any wife might resent.
"On the principle that it's always
mighty easy 10 get another hus-
band. but not so easy 10 get a good
cook" Dicky asked impudently
"ENa city" returned Lillian,
laughingly.
"Remember. husbands come
higher. the older the bidder" Har-
ny Underwood said. and his cutting
tone gave emphasis 10 the offensive
words.
Lillian flushed under her rouge.
but luckily the entrance Of Betty
with the coffee saved the situation
How did yoh all like dat pie o"
Betty demanded of everybody in
general. as she passed the coffee.
looked at her in amazement.
Surely. Mr.. Underwood's criticism
was somewhat justified.
"Scrumptuous. Betty" said Dicky,
laughing. Didn't you see I took
two pieces?"

LID SAID. "DICKY BROUGHT
ME THESE"
Never in my life have I seen any
thing so startling and yet so at
tractive as Lillian Gales living
room.
I knew that she was a famous
illustrator, so of course. I naturally
expected to see evidence Of artistic
taste in her furnishings But the
reality exceeded my anticipation.
I had only received a blurred i'm
preston OF splashes OF color as Mrs
Underwood hurried me through to
her bedroom, and then out into the
dining room for the after-dinner
coffee.
But when we came out into the
living room again. 1 stopped short
and drew a Ions breath of admira-
ton.
Rather hits you between the
eyes, doesn't it. Madge?" Dicky said.
That's the way it affects every
body"
1T is wonderful wonderful"
said. turning to Lillian. I did mot
pointedly ignore Dicky, but did
not answer his comment He had
been altogether too nonchalant and
distant to suit me when ] had come
into the dining room. 1t would not
hurt him to be left to himself for
a little.

CHAMP CLARK TO Be LEADER
Highest Office in the Gift Of
Democrats.

Washington, Nov. 13.-The election
OF Speaker Champ Clark as democratic
leader of the next congress is practi-
cally, assured -,.
There has been considerable question
as TO whether Claude Kitchin, pres
cnt democratic floor leader, would get
the position. ...
After regarding the minority floor
leader, Clark said:
The man nominated as speaker is
always minority leader"
Kitchin said the same and also
further stated that he would make no
contest for the position but would
keep his Place as leading democrat on
the Ways and Means committee, and
that Clark would follow the example
OF Representative Kahn and take no
important committee appointment but
would push his work on the floor.
