Adele Garrison's New Phase Of
Revelations
of a Wife
How Mother Graham Disposed of
Major Grantland.

have always prided myself upon
my self-control, but every iota OF It
was shredded from me by the in
creasing pain, different from any
thing ! had ever before experienced,
which tore at my side after Major
Grantland had put me down upon
my bed.
"Oh, what is it," l gasped wildly,
looking up at him in an unreasonlng
panic.
He put out his hands and took
mine in a strong grip.
Don't be frightened" he said. Il
do not think it is dangerous, but |
am afraid you have fractured rib.
The physician, of course, will be
able to ascertain this point definitely
when he arrives. But just now there
is nothing for you except to be your
intrepid, natural self.
My mother-in-law, who had busted
herself with putting in order the
trihes scattered upon my dressing
table, gave one Of her characteristic
snorts.

ly. "if you have quite finished reas-

you will be so kind as to let me at

"Ohp I exclaimed in frenzy OF
humiliation at the insulting tone and
words, II am 50 sorry. 1t is shame
full" =,
Don't give it another thought
he said in a low tone, pressing my
hands slightly and laying them
down upon the bed. Then he turn
ed to my mother-in-law, and his
words were as measured and cold as
the dripping of an icicle.
"Mrs. Graham must be moved as
little as possible before the physician
arrives. Movement is torture to her.
Remove her shoes, cut her clothing
wherever it is impossible to remove
it without movement upon her part.
Above everything keep her quiet url-
til the physician comes"
His voice had the ring OF one ac-
customed to command instant ODE
dience and respectful attention. But
those under his authority had been
soldiers, not an irascible old woman.
She threw back her head haught-
ilv and assumed her most crushing
grande dame manner.

Major Grantland, if I remind you
that I am the mother-in-law Of DR.,

Says City Sold Him
Potatoes, but Failed
to Deliver Them

]. F. Reese, Forty-ninth and
Mason streets, complains that two
and one-half bushels of potatoes
bought and paid for November 6 at
the city hall, where the mayors de-
partment held sale, had not been
delivered when he addressed the
following letter to the Bee Mon

half bushels of potatoes, paying
$3.50 for the same to be delivered

been delivered and all we get from
city officials is promise of delivery

be the same way with the potatoes
and if they will never come. Now

Sheriff Sells $4,000
Empty Beer Bottles
for $500 at Auction

Twenty-Five thousand empty beer
bottles were sold at auction yester-
day by Sheriff Mike Clark to Nathan
Steinberg in the basement of the
court house for $500.
The bottles have been emptied in
the last week by a force of deputy
sheriffs under an order of the dis
trict court. They were taken from
the premises of Anton Larson on
West Center street in the summer
of 1917 and later ordered con-
fscated.
This beer was stored outside Of
the Larsen home. The sheriff did
not take a large amount of beer
stored in Larsen's cellar, consider
ing that he had the right to have
this. as it was in his dwelling.
Much of the beer was stolen after
the riot from the vault in the base
ment of the court house where it
was stored. Many holes were cut
with wire nippers in the heavy wire
netting of the vault and the bottles
were then removed by reaching be-
tween the steel bars.

II want to buy some perfume" said
the young man.
This is very fine; IS an ounce" the
saleswoman replied. and placed tiny
bottle on the counter.
Got something better7" asked the
young man.
Here Is some at $40 an ounce"
"'Taint expensive enough, good
night" And the young man moved
away.
This being an age of science. we ad-
NIT that events have antecedents, and,
being somewhat startled by the Incl
dent described above. we seek It's In
ception.
What manner Of man Is II who
scorns perfume at $40 an ounce be-
cause "'tain't expensive enoughf"
Upon the meager evidence of his
"'tain't" we assume he IL q youth Of
no especial social attachments. As he
was one In the greatest mid-Decem-
Der shopping crowd Chicago has ever
known. we may assume that he sought
the perfume US a Christmas gift to his
sweetheart. It Is reasonable to believe
she is a girl Of his own social stratum.
Why. then. did he scorn perfume at
SO On ounce? 1t was not because he
disliked the scent. He didn't even
try 1t. It was not because he disap-
proved Of the brand. 1t was apparent
that he knew nothing Of the brands.
1t was simply, as he rather ostenta-
tiously asserted, that 1t was not suf-
ficiently expensive. The cost was to
him the sole proof of quality, and he
realized that the prospective recipient
Of the gift would Judge by the same
standard, He wished to show her that
the best was none too good for the
object Of his attentions. And he had
the money to pay for it.
At last we approach the point. High
wages, high costs, and high living meet
again.
1t Is one more item Of evidence in
proof Of the growing conviction that
increases in wages alone will not solve
today's labor and social difficulties. In
this country they are leading too d.
| rectly to extravaganza and ostentation
