RUPERT HUGHES

l first met Rupert Hughes sew
eral years ago. l sat next to him
at dinner. Mr.. Hughes was then,
as now, very much In the lime
light But Mr.. Hughes did not talk
at all about his own work. He
asked me about mine, and told of
how, once, when he was an editor,
he had cut an authors story in
moment of stress to fill an exact
ing space, and how that author
had minded. His feeling still,
though this had happened years
before, was one of real regret for
that authors chagrin.
1t is that quality of understand
ing the other fellows feelings that
gives him such a large hold on the
American public.
| asked him last winter when he
first began to write, and he said
at the age of seven and that he
had been at it ever since. A short
time after he left Yale he had six
months experience on newspa-
per. After that he had been an
editor on various magazines until
little more than ten years ago, but
that during those editorial years
he had done a great amount of
writing at night.
His output has been enormous.
1t is impossible to chronicle all of
his successes in short stories, nov
els. plays and moving pictures. He
is also the author of musical
encyclopedia. 1t seems incredible
that one man could do so much!
And yet he was intensely Interested
in the idea of the Star Author Sc
ries of Matrimonial Adventures and
at once agreed to write the story
that follows.
"Peachblow' is an extravaganza
on marriage 1t has none the less,
an underlying suggestion for both
husbands and wives.

The Lord himself, they say, was sur
prised when he saw her. Her earthly
father was so stunned with pride that
he called her "Peachblow." And with
good reason. She was born just about
the time when the Peachblow vase
was exciting the world.
The unknown genius who was the
author of that masterpiece never
dreamed Wien he put 1t in the fire
that 1t would come out so wonderful
And so the mysterious Potter who
places souls in the furnace of human
bodies was enchanted and amazed by
the curious, unforeseen, unintended
beauty of this girl when she was born.
They had selected the name of Ellen
Anne Green for her before they saw
her. but afterward they called her
Peachblow.
Such peculiar luster she had, with
the glow of Il glaze, yet the aura of a
mist, that the Potter longed to show
her how he loved her by endowing
her with some intentional gift sur
passing even the fortuitOus charm she
brought with her out of the kiln of
mystery.
So He gave her power He had
never even granted Himself-that of
annulling what had been and making
it as If it had been. He authorized
her and empowered her to change her
mind and try again from the start
She could rub out the past and do 1t
over again
She learned of her awful power
only by accident and not until she had
passed through the animal whims of
childhood. and the parent-obeying,
teacher-o -obeying custom-obeying years
Then she found herself in the world
of grown-up women. They were think

Some were not married and wanted
TO be, but dreaded it and could not
find satisfactory mate. Mates were
admirable, adorable or advisable, but
rarely all three at once. The women
who were married seemed to be for
ever pointing out what martyrs they
were and how well they stood 1t; or
else were longing to try n new form
of martyrdom with somebody else.
Peachblow longed for the joys. the
sorrows. the burdens of home. She
wanted to do her share In the world !;

Household Suggestions

The use of water often will pre-
vent scorching.
For instance, before you put
milk in a saucepan to heat, rinse
tn epan with water; the milk is
not nearly so apt to burn.
In filling gem pans. leave one
section empty and fill it with
water instead of dough; it will
keep the cupcakcs or mullins from
becoming too brown.
