A HUSBAND TO MARCIA
By CAROLYN BEECHER

 John moved quietly on to his den, feeling more kindly toward Mrs. Vane than he had since she came to them. Her last remark, the feeling in her voice when she said they were a com fort when small, the expressed hope that he and Marcia would not remain Childless, touched him.
 Perhaps I haven't been quite fair to the old lady" he said to himself Then smiled as he thought how she would squeleh him if she heard the "old lady" But all desire to read had left him. The conversation he had overheard had started a new train of thought.
 "A little Shaver like Don" he said aloud as he watched the smoke from his pipe curl toward the ceiling. And he smiled at some recollection at the same time that he sighed.
 In the apartment across the hall lived a MT. and Mrs. Cameron and their four-year- old son, Donald. The C0llO anu JOilU Ildu Sl1 uSh up QoAtS ~N friendship. Once John inveigled him into the apartment, but he was a healthy, noisy yoIngster, and Marcia objected. Her nerves couldn't stand his racket and, besides, he might meddle with things and break some thing. So John never had brought him in again except on Sunday morn ings when Marcia was at church. Then it was regular thing for little Don to visit him in his den, and either chatter to him or sit beside him with a picture book or on his knee while John searched his memory for stories to tell the boy.
 At first his stories, rehashed and reyamped from memory, were bit above Don's head. Then he tried lit tie stories of what he himself had done when 8 little boy, and Don never tired.
 "Teu me more, MT. John, bout what you done when you was little llke me" soon became the usual demand. And John would spin yarns until time for Marcia to return. when ne

 No? Well, it was just as he went out. l had repeated what you had told me about him not demanding what he was worth from his firm so that he might do more for you. l Distinctly heard him say 'damn!'"

 Dad was always the saving kind, wasn't he?'
 "Yes-too much so sometimes. Yet I was able to have nearly everything I wanted if I went about it the right way. You shouldn't be obliged to get along with only one servant now in this apartment. Your father not only had me to provide for at Johns age but three children. It is fortunate you haven't any children-until John Goes better financially"

NEW YORK-Black velvet is al ways the safe as well as the popular material which may be worn on al most any occasion from semi to full dress.
 The simple lined black velvet gown by Harry Collins. who created the in augural wardrobe for Mrs. Harding, is attractive because the simplicity is the sort gained from pure artistry.
 The draped skirt effect falls in a long point on one side and the only ornament, aside from the deep yoke of heavy lace, is a large brilliant buckle holding the drape over the left hip. Despite the fad for long and flowing sleeves, this gown has short, tight sleeves.
 It is youthful and chic and avoids the extremes.
 It is a discreet eight inches from the ground.
 The small black hat has it's note of elegance in the lovely sweep of the bird of paradise.

 QUARREL

When people lose their tempers,
 Or, what a sorry sight!
 They call each other dreadful names,
 And sometimes scratch and bite The Merry Little Freezes ran
 And hid themselves away
 When Chatterer his temper lost,
 And so did sammy Jay.
 IL really was too dradful. It quite spoiled the day for all the little peo- pie who were within sound of their voices. You see Sammy Jay had dis covered that it was Chatterer and not trap set by Farmer Browns boy that had given him such a fright at Farmers Browns corn crib, and right away Sammy's temper just boiled over. Chatterer had his mouth so full of corn that he couldn't say word, but he could run and run he did, scampering across Farmer Browns dooryard to the shelter of the old stonewall on the edge of the Old Orchard with Sammy after him screaming Thief thief! thief" at the top of his lungs.
 My gracious what a racket" ex- claimed Farmer Browns boy as he opened the door. That Jay is mak- ing such a fuss that I should think there was Fox about" He put his milk pails down and stepped back into the house. In a minute he was out again with his terrible gun in his hands. He went straight to the old stonewall, where only few minutes before Reddy Fox had been hiding, and it was well for Reddy that he had slipped away the minute sammy Jay began to scream at Chatterer, | Farmer Browns boy looked disap- | pointed when he saw no signs of ' Reddv. Then he went over to the lit- | tie house of Bowser the Hound and ! unclaimed Bowser. Bowser wagged
 his tail and yelped with delight when he saw the gun, for he dearly loves to hunt. He ran ahead back to the old Orchard and almost at once his great deep voice told all within hearing that his wonderful nose had found | the tracks Of Reddy Fox.
 T thought so.' said Farmer
 Browns boy q thought there had | been a Fox here" Then he sighed | for he would have like nothing better | than to go hunting for Reddy. But | there were the empty milk pails and ! Farmer Browns boy is not the kind who run away for pleasure wheI ! there is work to be done.

The love instinct can be put 10 many uses, say the new psycholo- gists.
 Pent up in man or woman, it pro duces all kinds of real and imaginary miseries. Twarted love, however, may be turned from a romantic to a prIc- tical purpose; thus transferred. IL will provide the individual with a satis- factory variety of happiness.
 The process of diverting or chang ing sex energy is called "suDlima- tion." Some authorities say that the energy belonging to any primi- tive instinct may be employed in new and non- primitive channels" Thus love for a person may be transferred to an intellectual pursuit. or used up in craftsmanship.
 A girl whose musical ability Is suf- ficient to insure her an excellent sai- ary writes thus:
 'I am a busy woman. As director of music in the schools of a large city and as the leader of an orches- tra, l have ample outlet for all of my energy.

would lead the boy across the hall.
 "Good-by, MT. John!" And Don in variably reached up for a kiss.
 Good by, Don. See you tomorrow, old man." would be John Aldrich's answer, always bringing a chuckIe of delight from the little boy.
 Now as he watched the smoke curl ceilingward he seemed to see Don's face taking form and shape. Yet the face was not Don's. but a replica of his own, the face of a boy, little, like Don-but his very own.
 Then he recalled Marcia's declara- tion:
 Tt is all right for millionaires-but excuse mel"
 John sighed heavily once more as the baby face dissolved. Was it that his pipe had gone out? Or had the mist he wiped from his eyes obscured the vision he so plainly, so lOnginglS had seen in the pale gray smoke. "A millionaire" he muttered, bit | terly, as he heard Marcia call.
