Adele GdrriSon'S New
REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
"THEIR SECOND HONEYMOON"

tesy which Dicky had shown me in
our second honeymoon" following
his long absence in California, might
continue I had thought that he was
radically changed. l saw now that
he had only been INDUCING himself
in an emotional remOrsefulness. for
the stupid, utterly unreasonable
jealousy which had driven him to
San Francisco, and condemned me to
such misery.
He was the same thOughtless, es-
ssut.aay selfish man he had been. 1
reflected drearily that the softening,
uplifting influence a wife was sup
posed TO have over a husband was
evidently a minus quantity in my
case.
And the emphatic, coarse phrasing
of this ultimatum against Katie:
well. if that isn't the limit You're
shouting she'll so. No squalling brat
around my house" piled the clods
upon a grave, the mound of a secret
hope 1 had always cherished that
some day tiny, clinging hand
would take hold of Dicky's soul and
make him the man he was meant to
be
These were his real sentiments!
There was no installing the disgust
in his tone. At the full realization
of what his attitude meant to me /
shook as with a nervous chill. 1
realized that 1 must get out of the
room or 1 would disgrace myself in
Dicky's eyes by burst of hysterical
weeping.
1 do not remember how l got out
of the room and into the shelter of
my own. But L do remember lock-
changing my clothing for my night
attire and a bath robe before I crept
into my bed. Ny childhood never

with the cold, feeling that I would

What Dick Said.
At the sight of my face as open

exclamation. and catching me up in

me tenderly.
For some minutes he sat silently

pressed against my cheek. Then he
spoke with tender remorsefulness:

lightly TO hide the genuine feeling he
was experiencing and 1 listened
breathlessly for his next words.
Little wife, he whispered, after
another long silence, I'll tell you
frankly that I don't want you tied
down with the care of a baby just

head that l won't be just as daffy

Dicky told me that he was uncon-
sciously deceiving himself, that his
words were born of remorse for his
boorishness.
But woman-like, I waved aside the
future. and snuggled happily in my
husbands arms.

HOW DICKY MADE HIS MEAN
ING CLEAR.

I shrank away from Dicly with a
feeling of repugnance as ne uttered
his ultimatum against Katie. The
crudeness of his words and the utter
lack of feeling he displayed revolted
me. / knew that the constant pres
ence of children irritated him, and !
had feared his displeasure at my
revelation of the secret which Katie
and Jim. the faithful couple who
took care of our home, had kept
from US, the secret Of Katie's pros
pective motherhood. But I had not
expected the vehement vulgarity with
which he had greeted my news.
He saw my involuntary movement
away from him, and his face flushed.
Poor Lady Prim. tied 10 such a
