 So now. when Mir Fox boldly ad- mitted that it was goose feathers that he shook off himself In per feet shower upon the floor, Tommy thought that his father must certainly have brought goose home with him,
 Although if was Tommy's bedtime, and he was sleepy. he jumped up and began to run his long tongue over his lips. It seemed to him that he could already taste goose.
 Where is it, Father?' he asked.
 Where's what?" growled Mir. Fox.
 "The goose"
 Where's what goose?'
 ''rhe goose whose feathers you just brushed off your coat" said Tommy.
 MT, Fox grinned.
 'Oh!" he exclaimed. That goose was flying too high for mo to catch. I'd have had to jump a mile into the air to get her"
 Tommy Fox was puzzled How could so many white feathers have dropped upon his father from such height? He stole over to the spot where his father had shaken himself

MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS
 Adele Garrison's New Phase of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE

by George, I didn't blame him when you lifted those lamps of yours and looked up ai me It was like look Ing into deep pools of water where the sunlight ia trying to chase the shadows away.
 Madge Is Amused
 Not that you turned any sunlight in my direction" he smiled. You might have been Galatea before what's-his--na kissed her. or an angel floating around on feecy cloud for any warming up you did toward me. You didn't like either LII or me one little bit. and while you did the cordial to Lil because you were afraid the Dieky-bird might think you were jealous, you didn't have to be nice to me, and my hand Is frozen yet from the icy mitt you handed me-"
 His voice trailed off into silence, and l realized that for a second ENf two he was actually lost in the reQ{ iniscence of that long-past tN which l remembered as vividly as he. Then he spoke again. more briskly.
 ''But I'm getting away from my subject. Confound you, I always get off my trolley when you're around. Here's the point. The Dicky-bird swept you off your feet, married you after a whirlwind wooing, and you had about as much experience of the world, of men and of what you might get up against as tame white rab- bit. The Dicky-bird ought to be on his knees thanking his particular little joss that he ever was allowed to cop you out, instead of philandering fates could only have fixed it so you could have married me, now"
 But the image of Harry Underwood as possibly constant husband was too much for me, and I laughed un- restrainedly.

white stew is less attractive and not as appetizing. Chicken may be left light in color but almost all persons enjoy fricassee more than just plain stewed chicken; fricassee means that the chicken is fried before or after being stewed.
 Sometimes it is advisable to cook the stew in a casserole, and serve il in the same dish. The dish is at- tractive and the heat is retained un- til the moment of eating.
 If vegetables are plentiful in the stew, and dumplings are served with it. 1t becomes a one-dish meal. saving time as well as money. It'is well to serve salad with it--a light dessert. and, of course, no soup.
 Dumplings.
 Many cooks do not have success with dumplings. yet they are easy to make as anything can be-and should always be light if one or two rules are followed.
 Do not put in shortening; do not handle them, but have the dough soft enough to drop from a spoon. Have the stew boiling when the dumplings go in; be sure the cover of the kettle fits closely and do not lift the cover for at least 10 minutes.
 A stew made in kettle is more at tractively served on a platter sur rounded by the dumplings. Small potatoes and onions may be left whole, the carrots cut in strips and other vegetables in uniform pieces.
 Tomato adds color and flavor. and one or two tablespoons of chopped parsley sprinkled over the top adds to the stew's beauty.

HINTS ON STEWS
BY BERTHA F. SHAPLEIGH Of Columbia University

There is nothing better and more appetizing than good stew. especial ly on cold day. Some people think over meat.
 While such a stew may be excel lent, a dish of freshly cooked meat is as important and dignified as a roast 1'he process of stewing is cooking meat in water at a temperature slightly below boiling.
 By this method. tough meat may be made tender and the juice become rich and thick. To this vegetables and seasoning may be added.
 National Stews.
 Every country has some kind of a stew, the meat and vegetables differ ing.
 Oriental countries use lamb and pork more than beef, while English stew is usually made with beef. An Irish stew has lamb in it and is sell dom a brown stew.
 Chicken is used great deal, al- though not entirely, in France and Spain. The Mexicans stew beef, chile peppers. and beans together.
 curry is really a stew, very high ly seasoned, and may be made of fish, veal, chicken, lamb or beef.
 Fresh pork makes an appetizing stew, and in some countries beef, veal and pork are combined Where fish is plentiful a fish stew is used as much as meat in other places
 Brown Stew Best.
 One important point is to have a beef or lamb stew brown in color. A

and looked down at the floor. He wanted to see those feathers. But tc his great surprise, there wasn't one there.
 Why. they've gone!' Tommy cried. "The feathers aren't here What became of them? They couldn', have blown away"
 Again MT. Fox grinned.
 Don't tease the child!" said Mrs Fox then. He's sleepy. Tell him; and let him go to bed"
 Goose feathers--" MT. Fox be- gan" goose feathers do not always grow on a goose. Great, big soft snowf1akes are sometimes called goose feathers. And that's what was on me when I came home"
 Tommy Fox was greatly disap- pointed to learn all this.
 ''Well.' he said to his father T wish we had a goose. Can't you get one down at Farmer Green's?"
 This is no time to eat geese" MT. Fox told his son. This is turkey time. Thanksgiving day is just five days off. Goose for Christmas! Tur- key for Thanksgiving! That's the rule"
 Are we going to follow the rule? Tommy asked anxiously.
 MT. Fox drew himself up and looked as big and important as pos sibe.
 Leave it to me" he replied in a tone which Certainly meant, This family is going to have a turkey on Thanksgiving day; and don't forget it."

The color ebbed from Myras face. She did not dare voice the fear she felt, nor the sympathy she felt for the girls mother.
 The steward moved off. Myra sank into chair. groping for some com forting word for the man who was so used to commanding and directing, and now was utterly helpless, captive, in void between sea and sky.
 Myra held out her hand.
 "Friendship, Jack" she murmured, as he reached to grasp it. Just hold on tight, and think the best"
 ITO think that can do nothing till we land and I can catch the first boat back. My God, it'll be five or six days-then six or eight more--'
 You'll probably get another mes sage. Keep your courage" But Myra needed courage herself as she thought of the six days of the voyage still be- fore them.
 Staring preoccupiedly along the deck, she saw coming toward them one of the ships officers guided by the steward who had brought the wireless message.

GOOSE FEATHERS.

Mr. Fox had just come home all covered with snow. At least Tommy thought that that was what his father shook off his coat. But when his mother said to his father, 'Is that snow?'' and his father said, Goose feathers!" of course Tommy pricked up his ears.
 Tommy Fox's father was always very careful to. brush all feathers off himself before coming home from a trip to the barnyard. He liked to enjoy a hearty meal now and then without having to share it with his family. And Mrs. Fox was sure to ask him questions if she chanced to see such teIltale thing as feather

You will train your children to make no disparaging comments about the food, whether at the family table or at more formal gathering.
