But how would De0oran save
the man she loved from the COM
plexities, irritatiors, jealousies,
disappointments Of a lore-trian-
gle?" I asked myself as l waited in
the dusk for, Bob to come home TO
a late dinner. Ny domestic at-

dignifed graduate OF a state uni
yersity, who comes by the hour six
days a week, and is paid more than

NJ husband vas very late. He
hadn't phoned ne. Luckily We
had chilled meal for the end Of a
hot day. and il was safely re2osing
and improving on ice. So ! sat in
M swing under my pine trees and
wondered alternately about Debo-
rah and Bob.
/ couldn't answer the involved
problem I had put to myself aboui
Deb, and it occurred to me that :
might much better endeayor 10
solve my own matrimonial diff
culties.
Things we're going pretty badly
with Bob and me. We had reach
ed a period in our married life
when we should be settling down
to a quiet anchorage on unruitled
waters. and we were still narigat-
ing between typhoons of temper
and rocks Of regret!

myself woh are having stormy voy-
ages on the seven seas Of matri-
mony. Personally l am rather
shocked when count the derel!ct
Divorces in our society shadows.
And ! expect Bob to steer our little
craft into some near port OF hap
piness.
But at the time Deb and ! be-
came such close friends. my hus-
band didn't seem to be giving all
Of his attention tc 81: ship. !;
couldn't guess vheter he had lost
patience with me as his FIRST mate,
or whether he was losing interest
In our enterprise.
And whytWas be so late TO din
ner?
/ miss Bob avfully when We are
ouarreling. He Is my familiar
spirit, the one human being with
whom l am most at home. Even
when we discuss our differences, !
am not unhappy, because he is my
other self, and one cannot quarrel
seriously with oneself. It's hard
to put the feeling itno words, It is
really the most ancient bond be-
tween true lovers. and Bob and !
have often talked about It.
Considered in the light Of love
eternal, we were at odds over q
trivial matter-eyen a ludicrouS
happening:
Bob had let me have my hair
cropped, then he hadn't seemed to
miss the loss Of 1t q bit; and then
| had by accident discovered him
at the garden rally with q button
Of his sleeve c0ught In Katherine
Miller's blowing tresses and ! had
heard him refuse to break a strand
Of what he called threads Of liy-
Ing gold!"
Deb happened along with me
and she had no such conjunction
the dear girl!
As / waited for Bob to come
home to dinner, the picture had
seen in the box alley harassed me.
But instead Of making me weep. as
once It would have done, it left me
cold and sane.

DERvlsH HAS CHARMED LIFE.
mad MulIah' Safe in Abyssinia-
British Kill Relatives.

BY Associated Press.
London, Nov. 1S.-The NAL Mul-
iah." the dervish leader, who seems
| to bear q charmed life, is now In
| Abyssinia, safe from British pursuit.
| but Of his numerous wives, sons and
| relatives. only his eldest son and a
brother escaped with him.
In the British campaign against
him. sixty Of his personal followers
were killed. including seven of hi.
sons, seven close relative and four
of his advisers. Six sons, his five
wives. four daughters ana two Sis
tiers were captured.
Picturesque details of the fruiticss
attempts to capture the derxissh
chieftain are given in an official dis
patch from Godfrey, Francis Archer,
the British governor Of that protec-
torate.
In the early months of this year
the dervish forces were completely
routed. but the, Mullah himself oncl
more got away into the interior
Bombing airplanes were used in TIL:
campaign and the dispatch r.cor'
that on the approach Of the first ali
squad, the Mui.an collected his PEI
pie around him and awaited thei.
coming under a white canopy used on
state occasions.
Some ,dervishes afterward reported
that the Mullah saw in the airplanes
Va divine manifestation others said
that he had been told that the ma
chimes We're Turkish and came from
Stamboul (Constantinople) to convey
the Sultan's greetings.
It was during this first air raid
that the Mullah narrowly escaped
with his life. His robes were slnge,i
by bomb and he afterward prud-
emily took refuge in caves.
For many days, says the dispatch
the Mmlah was pursued by the came,
| corps, often on half rations and even
| on no rations at all. The e as ~.
| kept up day. and night until there
was nothing further to pursue-fro.i

protectorate.
One group of fugitives whose
tracks were followed turned out tc
be not the MuNah and his bodyguard
but party Of -Abysinnians. Most OF
the party We're killed, the dispatch
adds, and the Mullah, who was close
