CONF EssroNs Or A :.
HUSBAND!
The Mans Side OF Married Life
"a Joyous FAREWELL


That evening [ .old Dot about
takirr Edith to- lunch. but she did
not seem very much interested. She
asked enc or two :anguid questions
and then dropped the subject, which
was something of a re.ief t me.
Dots mother and father were to
leave that evening on an s o'clock
train; they would have to go down
to the station right after dinner. L
noted their bags in the hall. and the
sight gave me a great deal of quiet
satisfaction.
Il suppose we had better take a
taxi" l said to my wife.
NO.. we won't have to-" she as
sured me. In fact. we aren't going
to bother you at ALL"
That's good news, but who is 60
ing to carry the grips?"
George is coming by in his a
and will take US to the station. You
can. come along even il you want
to, because there's room for only
four"
George? 1 didn't know he could

driving when we've been out to-
~gether."
"Oh, I guess he can drive well
enough to get us down to the sta
ton"
We'll, | certainly hope he can. /
say Dot. I'd much rather you would
not take any chances on his driving.
Let me cal him up and say you've
changed your mind"
silly! Nothing is going to hap
pen. One would think we were go
ing on some wild adventure to look
at the long face you're making.
We're going to drive down to the
Pennsylvania Station. and come right
back"
why doesn't Edith drive you
down? She knows how to manage
a car much better than he does"
Then she and l would have to
ride back together alone. Besides,
I'd rather trust Georges driving
than Edith's for he isn't so reck-
less"
Still, ] felt uneasy. / would be
glad to see Dot come home again.
am afraid that my goodby to
my parent@in-law was more cordial
than my welcome had been. Their
departure took a big load off my
mind.
Dot and I practically never quar-
reed when they weren't around, and
| looked forward to being alone
with her again. We would under
stand each other better, and the
things that were bothering me-
especially that nonsense about Edith
would be easier to face.
Perhaps l would find some way to
tell Dot the whole story. and then
everything would be all right.
George came to the apartment. He
looked a little hustered and explain
&c that the self-starter had beer
balky. but that he had finally man
aged to get the car to run. / helped
him carry the grips down stairs.
His very evident ignorance about
cars did not make me feel one bit
easier. At the last moment 1 wanted
to go instead of Dot. but she in
sisted that she had to take her par
ents to the train.

Quarrel
CHAPTER 40


OF course Win would choose just
such a time to come in. l don't
suppose it was more than half past
nine or ten and he was not expected
until much later. And of course the
circumstances would look as badly
as possible.
Charles Young, whom I had al
ways disliked, took in the situation
with one glance from his shifty lit
tie dark eyes. And read into II
everything that did not exist. For
there / was with this pile of soft
material in my lap, my eyes run
ming tears, and there was Colin
standing before me, bending over
me in a way that seemed affection
ate--yet he had only been looking
at what / was making.
"Oh, IL beg pardon, I'm sure"
Young's. voice was all irony n
amusement. I'm afraid I'm intrud-
ing"
"Connie, my dear, what is it?
One of those headaches again? p
Win came over to me, bent over
so~licitously.
YES. I've been telling her she
shouldn't work. Colin said this, but
his voice sounded lame. The situa-
tion became more strained.
/ Young muttered another excuse
kand went out. We three looked al
each other, 1 dried my eyes and
picked up the work again. Win
perched himself on the arm of the
couch and lit a cigarette.
Nice tableau for Young to see!
He'll have it all over New York by
tomorrow morning."
"Why did you bring him up
then? 2" I asked, suddenly growing
angry. That odious man! You
know how l hate him."
THAT odious man means several
thousand dollars to me at the mo-
ment. He suggested . party at Ler7
ner's, and we came to get you to
join 1t. OF course 1 never expected
to drop in on such a tender
II would suggest you understand
the scene before you grow sarcas-
tic about it," Colin said with exag-
gerated politeness.
Win slid from the arm of the sofa
and came over to me. He picked up
the tiny dress in my lap and held
it out, staring at it without knowing
what it was. 1 had been sewing lace
on the miniature sleeves. a long strip
of lace and my needle and thread
hung from it.
What is ia dolls dress?" Win
had in mind some of the charity
bazars for which we had all con-
tributed. There was a silence. "A
baby's dress?" He dropped 1t as
though 1t had been scorching hot.
and turned to me, amazement, I'M
belief, even indignation in his face.
Whatever fragment Of a thought
went through his head then COM
pletely upset him. And when Win
was upset, he grew angry at once.
"Connie--" he only got that far.
The explanation, at least an ex-
PLANTATION of what he had called my
bad temper occurred to him. Sup

Kitchen Hints
Tempting Menus

Many housewives overlook the pos
sfbilities in gooseberries. The fruit
Is very easy to prepare and make
many delicious desserts. If goose
berries are canned before they are
quite ripe. less sugar is needed to
sweetens them.
Use a pair of scissors to top and
tail the berries, being careful not to
cut the skin. Wash in several waters
and the berries are ready to use.
Gooseberry Fool is an old fashioned
dessert. particularly acceptable on
q hot summer day.
Gooseberry Fool
Three cups green gooseberries, l
sup sugar, 1 cup water, 2 cups whip
ping cream.
Top and tail berries. Cook with
the water and sugar until tender.
Rub through a fine sieve. adding
more sugar if necessary. Let pulp
stand till thoroughly chilled. Whip
cream stiff and just before serving
stir in the gooseberry preparation.
Serve with sponge cake.
G~ooseberry Jam
To each pound of fruit, allow three
fourths of a pound of sugar. Heat
the sugar in the e Head and
tail slightly under-ripe berries. Put
In preserving kettle and let stand by
the side of the fire until some of the
Juice is extracted. Then bring to
boiling point and boil Is minutes.
Add hot sugar gradually. When the
mixture begins to boil the second
time, let boil 10 minutes. Test on a
cold plate. When the juice stiffens,

bread crumbs. l cup sugar. 1 table
spoon butter, 2 eggs.

and lemon colored and add to mix

AN OUTDOOR PARTY
FOR THE LITTLE FOLK

A pirate party is a host of fun
for the small boy or girl who
Is spending the summer in the
country, at the seashore or any
place that there is quite a space for
him to play in. q
The invitations must, of course,
be issued on red paper, else the air
of piracy is lost right at the start.
This can be bought in large sheets
and cut to the size of note paper
Use black ink for writing and If you
would add a bit more to the air of
piracy cut a pirates ship out of
black paper and paste it at the head
of the invitation.
When the guests arrive they are
taken to the yard or beach where a
hole some IS inches deep has been
dug-if at the seashore this can be
dug in the sand easily, If not then
use a tub covered with red paper in
which a hole has been cut-and
they will take turns at manipulat-
ing a fishing rod with a black
string and hook until each has Sc
cured a bundle tied in red paper.
Inside of these bundles are two
squares of red cheese cloth, one OF
these the guest uses for a scarf and
the other for a girdle.
Then the game of Catch Pirate
begins. One of the children who has
been blindfolded with his kerchief is
lead to the middle of a circle formed
by the other guests. While he
counts zone, two. three!" the visi-
tors skip away and halt when he
| commands them to. While they
are standing still the blindfolded
| pirate will catch one of them and
! identify him. Then the n who is
| caught is blindfolded.
For refreshments a red paste
board ship in the middle of the table
should hold candy and fruits for
the pirate kings and queens. The
ice cream can be dotted with little
red candies. and the cake. continu-
ing with the pirate scheme should
be black chocolate.
