WHAT TROUBLED MADGE WHEN
DICK PLAYED LADY'S MAID
FOR HER

I applied the liquid preparation
which Lillian Underwood had left in
my chiffonier drawer TO the faint
patches Of flame color just below my
throat, reminders of the burns 1 had
received at Dicky's birthday dinner,
and which 1 was afraid would spoil
the effect of the dinner gown 1 had
put on in honor of the guest my hus-
band was bringing home.
Then l stepped nearer TO the mirror
TO view the effect II certainly dis
guised the faint scars, but 10 my dis
may 1 saw there was such a differ
ence between the color Of the prep
aration and the natural tint Of my
skin that 1 must either remove what
l had put on or cover my entire
throat, shoulders and arms with
the stuff.
looked az my watch and saw that
the minutes had slipped away more
rapidly than l supposed. 1 must de-
eide at once what l was going TO do.
With a feeling that l might as well
die the death Of a sheep as Of a lamb
l seized a cloth and began TO apply
the stuff TO my throat and arms. But
it was slow work and / was most un-
skilled in the task. l became more
nervous with every passing minute.
and when 1 heard the roll of a taxi
below, having come on a train 10
minutes earlier than the one Dicky
had mentioned over the telephone. 1
gazed at the CHASTITY image of myself
in the mirror with a feeling of hor-
ror
For the love Of Mike, Madge,
what the devil does this mean?"
Dicky burst into the room, his
face like a thundercloud. 1 knew,
of course, that he must be angry and
disappointed at my failure to meet
and greet his guest below stairs, but
the absolute aversion on his face as
he looked at me made me SILVER.
Ccnsurc and Praise.
Have you gone out of your
mind?" he demanded. do you think
I'm going 10 let you come down
stairs looking like that? What in
thunder ever possessed you? Here
Drake is cooling his heels down

Of telling him 1 had mistaken
the train and had brought him out
on an earlier one. Now tell me quick
how TO get this blasted stuff off,"
"Oh. Dicky. if you only COULD" 1
said brokenly. Il was afraid the
scars of my burns would show above
this gown, and then when I had be-
gun I had to fix it all over alike"
I think Dicky heard the tears in
my voice, and realized that if / could
not keep from weeping he would
have a red-eyed wife TO introduce to
his new acquaintance. At any rate
he changed his manner instantly.
Goose he said tenderly, those
scars are hardly noticeable You're
foolishly sensitive about them. Here.
tuck these towels in about your gown
and give me some cold cream. I'll
get this stuff off in a jiffy."
And then, Dicky, smilingly, tender

ly removed the horrid, CHASTITY mess
with cold cream. wiped the flesh
carefully, and then busted rice pow

skilfully as a lady's maid could have
done.
THERE" he said, stepping back
and surveying me, you haven't a
trace Of a scar. And my eye! What
scrumptious gown! come give me
kiss for reward, and let's go down
stairs TO our guest. l guess you
won't put his eyes out!' he finished
extravagantly. and 1 knew that
Dicky was doing his level best to re-
store my equilibrium.
His kiss was hurried, though ten

started for the door. But I stopped
him, noticing for the first time that
two florists boxes lay upon the bed
where he had tossed them when he
came in.
What are these ,Dicky?" I asked
by Jove!" Dicky stopped short
and began TO open the boxes. Lucky
you saw them. This big box is for
you, from Drake, ana In the smaller
one is something which 1 hope will
go with your gown from yours
truly"
He had opened the smaller box
first and was holding out to me an
exquisite cluster of creamy orchids

and shot with rose. He laid them
against my gown and gave a little
sigh Of satisfaction. knew that his
artistic instinct was pleased, and
rejoiced, for few things annoy my
temperamental husband more than
Earring tints in clothing or furnish
ings.
"Oh, Dicky! how perfect, and how
dear Of you l pinned the flowers to
my gown and turned TO find Dicky
lifting from the other box a wonder
full cluster of pink roses.

what" he remarked. These are
sure the real thing"
He held them off, admiring them

lightly against my left arm.

heard the note Of artistic satisfac-

bad, Ell? Come along"
] hung back for an imperceptible
moment. I did not want TO go down
stairs like a debutante with my arms
full of flowers. I resented the touch
of flamboyance in Dicky that would
wish such an exhibition. knew
however, that it would be useless "a
expect him to understand so I fol
lowed him slowly down the stairs.
But underneath everything else /
was conscious of a disturbing little
thought. I knew that in the course
Of frequent studio amateur theatri-
Gals Dicky must have used cold
cream and cOsm etics.
But the perfect ease with which he
had acted the part Of lady's maid
in the completion of my toilet
troubled me.

Of the adventures Of Steve Morton

man of a ranch near the border be-
tween Arizona and Mexico. There,

But Papeta Louise Hanson) has a

Steve orders this man off the ranch

becomes a subject of common discus
sion.
At this junction. Mrs. Cannon (Ma-

announces that a friend from the
East is coming. She is Elsie Ran

lover, now wishes to give all she has

Steve is accused of the crime and
how he is finally freed make a story

duce.
