"Oh, 80 she's complained to you. has

She met his blazing eyes for a full
moment, her head thrown back on her
splendid shoulders, her whole face ex-
pressing her entire fearlessness of him
and then, without another word, she
swung around and left him standing
there. She opened the heavy door, con.
scious that her hand was trembling. Her
thoughts were confused and anger was
surging over her wave upon wave. How
dared he speak to her as he had and
what an utter brute he was! Did he
think he could terrify her as he had
Trix? And as the child ran up to her
quickly, Nancy slipped her arm around
her tenderly. She intended to stay and
take care of Trix unless Miss Hendcr-
son sent her away and she hoped it
would not come to that. But as she
remembered Bruce Henderson's blazing
eyes and uncontrolled temper, she was
not at all sure of the outcome. Doubt
less people had given into him all his
life and he generally got what he wanted
from every one.

Through a Woman's Eyes
T,Uo Ways of Loving Him
BY JEAN NEWTON

The other night I saw such good
movie. II was about two wives. One
had no thought but of her husband,
whom she adored--and almost lost. The
other was selfish, and disloyal, and her
husband wowhiped her.
The wife who lived only for her hus-
band gave most OF her time and energy
to supervising his home. She hired and
fired servants in an effort to find those
who would be scrupulous about the
minutest detail. OF course, she told
him all abont the troubles she had with
them. Somehow she did not realize that
II man would rather sit in dust and
swallow sinkers than be annoyed with
stories of household cares.
And she hoped to improve his habits
He had to learn, when he smoked, to
flick the ashes carefully into the tray
she provided. because If the tiniest speck
fell on the rug she would scurry for n
brush ard sweep and wipe and rub until
she seemed to be sweeping on his YER
tebrae.
Then she was most careful about what
he ate She would go out into the
Kitchen to watch the cook and hurry in
to dinner at the last moment, rather hot
and tired. of course but then she knew
what the darling was putting into lis
stomach. She did not realize that a
man would rather have an attractive
ard cheerful woman at n fairly decent
table than a hot and weary one serving
the food of the gods.

anything for fear of being fed on it for
life. He had told her once that fried
chicken was his favorite breakfast dish
for Sunday mornings. She gave him

Mary's revelation as to there being

dumb. Knowing Mary to be free, he

he answered her. There are so many
things we must discuss
Eve did not eat a hearty breakfast
after that remark. 1t sounded just O
shade forebodng
And Mary Drew was looking like O
little ghost-a pale, pretty and attrac-
tive ghost-toward whom Dick turned
unhappy eyes.
The position was an irritating one.
Oh p! If Julian Vandaveer would only

Two Whole Days and Halt of Holidau.
WHhNothing to Do but Loaf Until Tuesdou
What VIII You Do: Go the Sedshore Country Hopo
Picnic or Just Stay Home and Be Thankful?
ISN'T It fine when holiday comes on

ISN'T II fine when holiday comes or
l. Monday and you have two whole
days and half to loaf?
Some Of us are hustling away this
afternoon by an early train to the sea =
shore.
Wen get right into the ocean--and
oh, won't It be cold at first, but won't
It be wonderful afterward?
And then the baking on the hot sand
until it's time to go in and dress for
that leisurely stroll on the Boardwalk
before dinner--and how we will eat
with that salt lair appetite!
Two more whole days of that air,
that appetite, that wonderful ocean and
those leisurely strolls.
No lunch hour, no time clock. no
alarm clock, no subway, trolley, sub.
urban train, no need for hurry!
DUT some Of us aren't going to the
- seashore; we're going deep into the
country where the air is soft and cool
and sweet.
It's so quiet and peaceful when we
get there, so far away from the hot.
hurrying crowd that we left behind
when we stepped on the train.
A restful late afternoon on n shady
porch, rocking, knitting. talking. gazing
over the wide, green, rolling landscape,
and then dinner.
And how we de enjoy that meal, with
everything fresh from the garden, and
real, country air coming in the
windows.
Sleep? The night seems about five
minutes long. Two whole days more of
peace and quiet and rest!
DUT there are still some more of us
- who aren't going anywhere at all.
We're, just going to take things easy
