co ON WITH THE STORY

Anita sank into chair, slowly weighed down by increasing compli- cation. How cruel life could be! It vas not bad enough that this wretched parting must punish the children, John and herself, but here was Rex Warren in 1t too---her girlhood friend, the old-time sweetheart who wasn't quite a sweetheart because circum- stances had separated them, and now her adviser. her rock and stay.

 ..J came back to tell you not to do the very thing find you doing. Anita --I didn't say what l did to add 10 your problems, but to help you with them. I am your friend. Perhaps l shouldn't have said the rest of it. Let 1t be the least of your considerations, we're confronted with the immediate present and future. If Barrett should force the issue publicly or stage grounds for divorce--what do you want me to do?"
 Twill he do that?''

 "oh, I cane bear to think of It. Can't we wait until he-does some thing--takes some definite step--
 You know how he feels, Anlta. Isn't that enough for youg pr snail he play whatever tune he wants and make you dance to it?"
 His harsh challenge whipped back tho color into her face.
 '1f only he and l were concerned in this thing. he'd play no tune. I'm thinking of the others, Rex--thc chil- drcn and you and--and the entire outcome Of things if--"

MY MARRIAGE PROBLEMS
 of REVELATIONS OF A WIFE

The expiring fragments of my Pnri tan conscience protested weakly. bu threw them a sop to the effect that a telephone message Is the next thinl to n telegram, The unpleasant. eagel voice of young MT. Smyhe struck in. to the conversation abruptly.
 Do you mean that your husband actually telephoned you about this?' he demanded.
 My hands itched to box his ears but ] turned 10 him with wide. | opened, innocent eyes.
 Why, of course [" answered hoping that could effcctually hide the intense dislike which the youth had aroused to mo. "Mr. Graham naturally knew that I would be anx. ious both about him and Miss Foster, who is one Of my dearest friends. and he notified me st once. l am going up there on tho afternoon train"
 "Ah [" Young MT. Smythe's ex- clamation was sibilant. And what do you intend to do when you get thcre? Do you intend to file suit for divorce?"
 MT. Rickett was not quite quick enough with the surreptitious kick he gave his colleague. although his in tentions undoubtedly were good, and young Mir. smythe, though he wfnced perceptibly was game enough to ignore the kick, as his ferret eyes fixed themselves on me.
 "Divorce?" threw up my head haughtily, rcgie intense aston ishment and <nger as Lillian had coached me. Surely you do not mean that question seriously

 Your attitude, then Miss Cargill began. but the unsquelchabe MT. S1iytha interrupted her.
 You say" he interiected explos- ively. that Miss Foster is a dear friend of yours. Surely you have photograph of her which yin will let US have?''
 ''No I haven't" I forced my voice to note of regret. She" my voice trailed off in a panic as my eyes caught the doorway.
 sOh Mama, see what Dooner dot, nice big pitcher, all torn Mama mend it for Dooner."
 Coming toward me was my small son with the torn pieces Of Claire Fosters photograph in his hands.

The Way Madgc Played Her
 Difficult Part

The three reporters iN the livinl room rose to their feet as entered and Miss Cargill.--I remembered he name from the card l still held-ad vanced to greet me.
 She was a slender woman approach ing middlc.age. smartly tailored, ant with something very attractive in he, bright keen face. I instantly decided that liked her, and that the likinG extended to tho good Hooking chap ir his late thirties, who stood just be. hind her. and whose genial smile almost made one forget the shrewd. ness of his eyes
 But the third member of the trio who( from Katie's description. knew to he the bunch Of soup greens''-- seIf-labelled as III. Edouard Smythe, " reused my instinctive antagoniHm at once. Hc was young. foppish, and one instinctively know that he had modelled himself after the popular fiction idea Of member Of the for eikn secret service. and his eyes were those Of q feites.
 Mrs. Graham ?" Miss Cargill asked, and at my nod, introduced the others rapidly. MT. Pickett. Mir. Smythe. She barely waited for their acknowl- edgment before speaking again.
 Please believe that we are not here of our own choice." Ishe said earnest ly. and there was a ring Of sincerity in her pleasant voice. But we needs must respond when our editors drive, and we are sent ta ask you if there is anything you wish to correct or comment upon in this article which appeared this morning"
 With a delft movement she held out to me the hatef,e account Of Dicky's escapade. It took all the will power possessed to take it from her non chalantly and glance at 1t as if re- freshing my memory.
 "Oh, yes saw this l said nightly with an amused little smile. "Cleverely written, isn't it?"
 Into the eyes of both Miss Cagril and MT. Rickett there flashed a look which I had seen in Lillian's when some sudden difficulty confronted her. And I hugged to myself the knowl- edge that they had decided l was to be no easy meat" in DiclSy's verna- cuiar.
 Tt entertaining" Mis- Cargil re- joined "Bnt is 1t correct in it's par ticulars? This says that Miss Foster has not been seen by the reporters, and we are anxious to know if she perhaps was injured by the accident
 What Do You Intend to Do?"
 ''1 fancy not" replied airly. "At least my husband assured me that she was all right when he telephoned me"

When Cleopatra Sets the Style

The justly celebrated Cleopatra Is said to have worn her dresses draped much in this fashion at the time she was mentioned in connection with tho famous Antony Octavia divorce case.
 There's no stopping a fashion--- drapcs started in on one side, they have progressed to the front of the dress, they'll soon be seen on both sides and finally we shall see them in the back with revival Of grand mothers hustle.
 However, the front drapes give an excuse for using one of the very new. very gorgeous cabochon ornaments that are so fashionable just now.

THE FAMILY TREE.

Ny dad was famous two.gun man,
I'm sure you remember his snames
As Loose-trigger Pete go.
He could shoot awful neat
When a piker nosed in ON his game.
A rustler he was by perfeshion
Till one of his pals spilled his dope,
An dad paid his fine
From the branch Of a pine
At the end of a hundred foot rope /
His father before him was clever
In his little amachure way;
Cards was his style,
An he laid by pile
As a dealer in oil Santa Fe.
But he shuffled 'em jes once too often:
They caught him one night with tn
goods.
AN although he was hung,
We are proud that he swung
From the prettiest pine in the woods.
An so if I say it as shouldn't ~
r GENE from famous OIL line,
So you IL understand
Why this mornin' I stand
At the foot Of wide-spreadin' pine.
They got pe fer stoppin' tn mail
Yes, jes &c, 300 often for me.
ButNsa and his g.
When they see, v glad
That I swing fron familystree.

THE NEW CITY HALL.

Duluth is to be congratulated that
the city council is proceeding SO steadily
and smoothly in details In connection
with building new city hall. There
has, so far, been a lack Of pickering as
well as unanimity In the necessary
steps in the procedure required. We
believe, too, that no mistake was made
in retaining Mr.. F. G.. German as an
architect.
AS urged previously, it is to be hoped
that the city council and the architects
will provide for an assembly room Of
substantial size. There are many times
when the people wish to visit the city
hall en- masse to let their voices be
heard by their servants. For such &C.
casions, there should be a council
chamber Of ample capacity. Plenty Of
space for the municipal court also is a
sine qua non, as Judge Cutting might
say.
Many conventions, political and
otherwise, do not require a hall Of ex-
IRENE size and many Of them are Of
such a public nature that the city is
more than warranted in letting them
use halls belonging to the municipality.
The new city hall should have a hall
or assembly room capable Of seating
not less than thousand people. BY
throwing two rooms into one, perhaps
Q capacity Of two thousand could be
provided. ...
If at all possible, a miserable city
jail should not be included in the new
city hall. Courthouses, as rule, have
outside jails and modern city halls ex-
clude them If at all possible. A Jail

gates on the floor repeatedly shouted

lam men and they not only sought to
discredit Kellogg by those cries, but
to confess republican shame to all the
world. They succeeded.
The Hallam delegates were noisy, ag-
gressive and they persisted in fighting
until the very last vote was cast. They
tried to sweep the convention off its
feet when their candidate was pre-
sented but there was not enough real
enthusiasm in the convention to start
a parade around the hall.
