WHEN A WOMAN TELLS

The tired voice OF John Ames

Il was calling myself a damned.
insipid fool--and think I am-don' Z
you2" he questioned.
There was something almost boy
ish about his earnest face as he
waited for my answer.

he would not go farther.
Yes. / am. You know Il; Lila
knows 81; Phil knows Il and 1 know

as 1 have. Do you know why I've
done it?" he questioned nercely.

didn't let her do az she wonted to

and now I've lost her anyway.
In the beginning 1 didn't notice

could put her In the setting her
beauty needed.
And now 1 have Just the empty
setting
Tho thing is getting me. I'm
afraid It's all I think OF and I find
myself waking up at night with a
start-to worry about Il"
The silence that followed was
strained. I knew that unless a mir
acle was wrought John Ames' mar
ried life was wrecked. And know
ing what I did. anything that I
might say TO encourage him would
sound empty.
They're out again-together, to-
night. aren't they?" he asked.

When you are sick and the doctor
comes he feels your pulse examines
your tongue and takes your tempera-
ture Then he looks into your eyes.
why do you suppose he does this?
Did you know that the pupil Of
the eye IS capable Of telling the doc
tor many things about its owner2
The size and the performance Of this
black spot indicates much 70 the
trained observer.
What Is the pupil OF the eye? It
Is not a patch OF black pigment
merely. az many persons imagine.
The pupil is a hole or window in the
curtain OF the eye.
The colored portion Of the eye is
called the "iris." Sometimes the
iris Is blue or gray. and sometimes 1t
IS brown or black.
The iris IS hung in the eye as a
sort or curtain 10 regulate the
amount OF light. II is made up Of
muscular tissue. forming what is
called a "spincter" muscle. When
these fibres contract. the pupil
grows smaller. 1t Is as il the shutter
CT a camera had been partly closed.
Eye Changes.
You have observed the eye OF cat
and have noted the remarkable
changes in the size OF the pupil. This
depends upon the amount OF light as
well as the emotions OF the animal.
OF course, a cats pupil is unlike the
pupil OF your eye. II Is slit and not
a round hole, but otherwise II acts
the same 1t dilates and contracts,
and Is rarely at rest.
All muscles are supplied with wat
are called motor nerves" These are
the nerves that carry to ZACH muscle
the orders OF the brain and nervous
Centers.
To the sphincter muscle OF the iris
then 20 certain nerves. One of these
Is called the motor oculi" nerve.
AS its name indicates, it is the nerve
that controls the many movements
OF the eye. One branch regulates
the size OF the pupil. When this
nerve IS stimulated the pupil con-
tracts.

just then. that 1 had learned TO lie
with such convincing grace.
She isn't In her room"
lie had been looking for her.
"No-she went out early in the
afternoon with a woman friend"
wondered. as I went on with the de-
ception. how II would work out.
Say where she was going?" he
queried.
Not unless she told one of the
maids"
You're sure she went with a
woman7"
He seemed quite satisfied when I
assured him that had watched her
go.

Grace had just come IN from

When you are at home again after
restful and invigorating vacation
days. why not look first TO the max
ing over Of the kitchen II II Is one
OF the old-fashioned sort with low
sink and tubs high closets and
dark storage cupboards. energy
could not be better spent than in
making IL over.
We women have looked too Ions
on stationary conveniences as fix
lures. and have put up with them in
stead OF uprooting them. We have
mounted chairs 10 reach that which
should have been low enough &c
reach from the floor. and we have
stopped and peered into dark places
for things where light should have
made them discernible. and we have
taken many unnecessary steps in
getting meals.
a practical hOusekeeper thought 1t
all out sitting on the porch during
vacation and came home with a
well-constructed plan OF action.
There was a Ions, plain wall space
on one side CT her kitchen. Here
she had three narrow windows
placed. with a convenient shelf out
side. Under the windows she had
her sink put at just the right height
To the left OF Il a capacious drain
ing board was built. and under II a
small corner closet for the housing
OF soaps. washing powders and al
things pertaining 10 dish washing
needs. Above the board was room
for two dish pans 70 hang.
The tubs were moved 10 the right
OF the sink, raised 10 the same
height, and a regular table top was
fitted over their zinc covers. Above
the tubs n cupboard was built "a
hold al washing conveniences. even
20 a clothespin bin In the corner
where the sink had been, now light
ed from the window. cleaning
closet was built IN with places for
brooms, long-handled brushes the
vacuum cleaner, buckets, and go on.
Where the tubs had been a good
sized zinc-topped table stood with
large revolving castors so Il might
be moved st viii where IL was most
needed.
A new kitchen combination range,
with a summer and a winter hot
water boiler connection, with smoke
hood and dishwarner attached, had
already been installed the season be-
fore.
Back OF the range and az the sides
OF It there was a lot OF extra brick

buildings large. So you can imagine
the conster 1ation in Mary's heart
when Morris suddenly shouted down
stairs for her, and-holding a pud
ding about the size Of a teacup on
the end OF his fork-demanded
Mary, do you call that a pud-
ding?"
Mary looked up and down went the
pudding. Nevertheless, Mary was
the stanchest Of the e-Raphaelite
supporters in her humble capacity,
that England boosted.
Another Of the pranks Hueffer re-
lated in his book, which makes one
think Of the delicate" Pre-Rapnael-
lie movement, with it's train of aesth-
tic followers as a band OF rollicking
artists, writers and workers is the
| following:
They like to swear, and, what is
more. they liked to hear each other
swear. Thus another OF MADDOX
Browns anecdotes went to show how
he kept Morris sitting fundamentally
still under the pretenSe that he was
drawing his portrait while Mr..
Arthur Hughes tied his long hair in
TO knots for the purpose OF enjoying
the explosion that was sure to come
when the released Topsy-Morris
was always Topsy TO his friends
ran his hands through his hair"
| These were the men whose artistic
revolt, made at the suggestion of
John Ruskin, in 1850, began that
movement whose influence is felt in
every picture we see today. Among
the famous names closely or slightly
related to the Pre-Raphaehte Broth
erhood are Millais, Burne-Jones, Os-
car Wilde, Holman Hunt, the Reset
