THEY had been married three
Il years and had never had a
dispute.
In the charming little salon
which they used as tearoom
Adrien >Reville was smoking a Gig
arctic, while Marcelle, making the
tea, talked gayly about the events of
the afternoon.
"Then I dropped in at Nine.
Livolle's to gossip little. Finally
stopped for bite at Germaine's. ;"
"Is that all?"
She fixed her clear and beautiful
eyes on him. There was nothing but
innocence in them.
"Why, yes!"
He looked at her sternly.
MY dear Marcelle, why don't you
tell me the truth? Didn't YOU 60 in a
taxi to one of the big shops? Didn't
you? Well, why do you want to
keep it secret? ] was driving bv
IN cab when I saw you pay the
chauffeur and hurry into the shop.
! hadn't time to get out and join you.
Now, wonder whether that would
not have embarrassed you? No,
don't get indignant! Put yourself
in my place. What am | to think?
Why didn't you mention that shop
ping trip? What were you doing
there?"
He stood up, as severe as a Judge.
The young wife's cheeks redeemed.
Her pretty face pursed up like that
of child's who is going to cry.
"Adrien! Don't scold me! l lost
the parasol which you bought me the
other day. I was so distressed. I
am so fond of the things which you
buy me like that when we go out
buy me when we go out together.

impressed by her husbands argu-
ments. She adored him and the idea
OF offending him frightened her.
Nevertheless, she hesitated a little.
Tell him everything? That would
be somewhat risky. But no, no! He
knew better than she did. She
would keep her word, regardless of
consequences.
She began at once. The next day
she had nothing particular to tell
except that man had followed her
III the street and tried to speak to
her. Up to now she never men,
toned annoyances Of that sort.
Adrien was irritated, but didn't
show it. The next day was that
which she devoted each week to a
rich, elderly uncle. When she re-
turned she made her report.
II went to see Uncle Jean. He
had rheumatism and was very
cross"
"He always isl observed NJ.
Reville.
'He asked me why you never
came to see him. l said that YOU
were too busy. He replied: Yes,
he is busy playing bridge at the
club. That is his only occupation.
He hasn't any other. But since he
doesn't do anything else he is pretty
sure not to lose much money"
Reville looked annoyed.

like that?"

"Not at all They make me
laugh. What did your mother say

by his feelings.
"You are a cadw shouted Reville.
They clinched and had to be sepa-
rated. Reville insulted several OF
the club members who interfered.
AS a result of the scandal which ne
had caused he was invited to resign.
He walked home. The night air
quieted him. He recovered his iu-
cidity. He reflected on what had
happened and the painful corise-
quences. He also realized what
miserable existence he had been
leading for some weeks past.

Marcelle Il was so frightened"

"But why?" she stammered.
"Why? What else could I 40

hears such things he has to do some
thing"
He couldn't contain himself any
longer Pounding his fist on the
table, he shouted:

truth under all circumstances is BAD
taste. 1t is nuisance. Deliver me
from your frankness. Lie, like al

whose abusive speeches were re
tailed to him regularly? He
awaited the latter with a perverse
curiosity which famed his rising
exasperation.
One evening Marcelle, pouring
tea, said to her husband:
II met NJ. Delapray."
Revllle's countenance cleared.
"My best friend! Yes, he wasn't
at the club to-day and | missed him,
Where did you see him?"
"At the Bersand art exposition
He came in just as I did"
She hesitated moment. as if
making up her mind.
Il have something serious to tell
you. M. Delapray :"
Her story was short. When she
finished Adrien was pale with rage.
He darted toward the door.
Where are you going?" Mar
celle called after him.
"To the club. He's there now -
He reached the club in great
state of excitement.
Delapray, his old friend, rushed
up to him, with hands outstretched
Reville scowled at him.

"How so?"
Yes, she has told ne everything.
Aren't you ashamed Of yourself?
TO try to have an affair with the
wife of friend like me! To make
love to her! To ask her for a rem

He choked with wrath. The other
seemed to be genuinely astonished.
But, my dear boy, what is all
this you are telling me? 1t is un-
true, or, at least, greatly exagger-
ated.' Why, it is all a pure mis-
understanding. Between friends
such as we are an explanation is
hardly necessary. Yes, I did meet

FHE actor who plays Boutwell, in
Il Drinkwater's "Mary Queen of
Scots" at the Ritz Theater on
March 81 can conceivably have a
grim guidance in his makeup. Miss
Clare Eames, as Mary, has only pic
lures to go by, and pictures, save
for the sidelong glance, rather at
variance with one another. But
Boutwell, who died an exile in
Denmark, was buried in Faarvejle
Church, and in that church is a
mummy which many experts believe
to be the body of Mary's last hus-
band.
M. Jusserand, the French diplo-
mat and historian of English litera-
ture, visited this curious relic in the
year 1900 and write description of
the mummy to Andrew Lang, who
reproduces the letter in his book,
1.-The Mystery of Mary Stuart"
The description of the mummy tai
lies - far with contemporary ac-
counts of Boutwell, that it can quite
justly be used by the actor as a sug-
gestive aid. 1t is perhaps the first
case on record of a mummy assist
ing in theatrical revival!
This is the letter from the French
Ambassador to the United States:
Legation de France,
"Copenhagen, Dec. 26, 1920.
"My Dear Lang:

"As for the mummy, it lies in an

again"
Miss Claire, or, as the passenger
list will show, Mrs. James Whitaker,
tried to explain cher nodules," but
gave it up, and suggested that DR..
Perrault be seen.
The throat specialist was found at
his offices, 80 West Fifty-fourth
Street. With a diagram showing
the vocal cords before him the doc
tor explained just what has caused
Miss Claire to quit Broadway.
Singers Corns
"These nodules, or singers nodes,
or corns," he said, as he penciled two
little dots on the inner or true vocal
cords' come together with the
vibration caused by speaking or sing
ing. They are caused usually by
misuse Of the voice and the placing
of the tone continually in the same
place. 1t is not difficult to strain the
vocal cords, the usual scene of such
straining being the football and
baseball fields. Miss Claire was sent
to me several months ago while she
was studying with Mrs. Robinson
Duff.
"Mrs. Duff, because of her past
success along the same lines, is op-
posed to using the knife except as a
last resort. AS matter of fact, so
am ! if the condition can be relieved
any other way. There have been
many cases where the nodules have
gone away through proper exercise
and voice massage, and believe that
Miss Claire has good chance for
complete recovery of voice through
rest. There are two other methods.
however, which have been successful.
One or two radium treatments have
driven away nodules, and I have
about $50 successful operations to
my credit.
"Of course, there is always danger
in the use Of the knife. Every
surgeon will admit that. But Bori,
OF the Metropolitan, went abroad,
had nodules removed from her vocal
cords, and / am told she is singing
better than ever after several years
absence. ! hope it will not be neces-
sary to use the knife in Miss Claire's
case, and from what 1 have seen of
the treatment by Mrs. Duff I am in
cllned to believe there will be no need
for an operation. However, she may
have to be away from the stage a
long Time, perhaps much more than
the year planned. 1t all depends on
her persistency in following instruc-
tions."
Mrs. ]. Robinson-Duff was found
at her home, 1876 East Seventy
eighth Street.
There is quite laugh connected
with the arrival here of Miss Claire
for treatment" she said when the
errand was explained. "For the mo-
ment she had lost her voice entirely.

vate the vocal cords. | was suffer-

fully as she explained.
"You see, my position in the the
atrical world is being impressed
upon me every day, and while l

are going to upset the show busi-
ness, / suppose I should explain.
While it is not pleasant to think of
losing ones voice, can't quite ap-
preciate that it is so terrible after

She said this bravely enough, but
the listener felt the forced optimism
as she added:
II still have the movies."
"But you have made your name
on the stage, and while the movies
are all right, do you think you could
be happy for long away from
Broadway?"
The question brought her out of
herself and she ratified on for few
moments just as she does in her
chorus girl characterization.
Hopes to Return
"No, I'm sure I wouldn't, but I'll
come back after years rest. At
least that's what Mrs. Duff says
When | found, early this season, that
it was becoming more and more di4-

Monae-Lesser. He examined ms
throat and. found three nodules
growing on the vocal cords. When
he told me that, I was frightened
stiff, and it was not until he in
formed me that these nodules
were little corns that come through
misuse of the voice and sometimes
go away through proper speaking
and singing methods, that decided
not to faint.
CDR. Monae-Lesser sent me to
Mrs. Robinson-Duff, who has spe-
cialized in voice placement and who
has had under her wing many of the
opera stars, including Mary Garden.
L. took up a regular daily routine,
which was for the purpose of mas
saging ARay my nodules.
"Aftdseveral weeks of study
and practice with Mrs. Duff, DR..
Monae-Lesser one morning told me
that one of the corns had disap-
peared, and this gave me courage to
work like the mischief to get rid of
my other two nodules."
Miss Claire spoke of "my

say "my diamonds" or "my pearls"

PRINCETON MEN To
STUDY CONDITIONS
Of CAP|TAL-LA
Special to the News

Princeton, July Twenty under
graduates of Princeton University
will spend their summer vacations
or part of them in attending the
great university of American indus
try-that is they are going to work
wherever they can get a job in or
der to study the conditions of wage
earners and their relations with
their employers.
They intend to live, eat and sleep
as other laborers and wage earners.
Every week they will meet in
groups to discuss the things they
have learned and prepare a report
to be given to other college men and
future employers. One of the pur-
poses is to see if they can discover
means of improving the conditions
of the wage earners.
For six weeks before the univer-
sity closed, &C Princeton men volup-
tarily attended a course of lectures
in which they listened to speakers
alternately representing the stand
point of labor and capital. They
studied books on industrial condi-
tions to equip them for their effort
to deal with what they regard as
perhaps the greatest problem fac
ing America and Europe today.
They say they do not hope to rev.
olutionize the conditions of the wage
earners but they do hope to be able
to make to employers and capital
lists a few suggestions gained from
first-hand knowledge of conditions
in American industries.
The plan was suggested by Sher-
wood Eddy, Young Mems Christian
Association secretary who lectured
here on social problems.
Some of the Princeton men al
ready are at work in New York,
Philadelphia, Denver, Minneapolis
and other cities. They agreed that
none of them should accept job if
by so doing he threw out of employ
ment another man. The committee
