The Way Madge Startled .DIcky

The sudden confirmation of my vague surmise concerning Mollie Faw- cett was like a blow in my face. h. deed, do not think I would have been more humiliated had Dicky &C., tualiy struck me.
 Upon one point, however, his reve- lation had been involuntary. He had not meant to let me know that Moilie Fawcett had been present upon the occasion which sent him home to me with his head bound up and bleeding. .,
 Moreover, l could see by the quick furtire glance he gave me that he ouAi l had not understood the mean ing of his ailusion.
 l realized that l was lowering my own standards immeasurably in this scene between us-I generally have taken refuge in silence when Dicky is in one of his rages-but something about this latest discovery had en- ragged me beyond the point where l could think clearly.
 I was able 10 keep my voice low and even procedure which l have found angers Dicky far more than if l shrieked to Heaven, but there my self-control ended. I could not keep from him any longer the knowledge l had of that night. For the moment I was some one en- tirely outside of my normal self.
 Blank Astonishment
 I suddenly rose from my chair, my hand almost touching Dicky as 1 did so. He stepped back and the single glance I threw him showed me that he was puzzled and bit uneasy about what my next move ment would be. Without a second glance at him. l went straight to the desk. and took from it the parcel I had hidden there on that memorable night,
 With shaking fingers I tore off the paper and dumped the contents, the two handkerchiefs and the em- broidered collar which had served as bandases for Dicks's wounded head, and which I had found stuffed into the baste-basket after he had insisted upon dressing the wound him self.
 Tt will not be necessary for you 10 tell me the real dope as you call it." said icily. '1 am perfectly aware that Miss Faweett was the good Samaritan who bound up, your wounds, and l must beg your par ,lon and hers for my delay in re- turning to you her property. But by absence at the farm will per- haps plead for me-"
 Into Dicly's face flashed look of blank astonishment.
 You Mcan----"
 Look here" he stormed. ''1 may be pretty bad, but this performance is about as raw a piece Of work as 1 ever paw from woman of your supposed ideals. Shopping around like a lsdy's maid in French farce and searching a waste-basket for evidence against your husband. Those things were wadded ID as handages. suppose you conhded in the janitor's wife and had her wash and iron them"

fiaVors are tested.
 And there should be good, sound teeth for tho proper mastication. Then enters saliva which, when given a proper chance to act brings important chemical changes. Thus the starch of bread is changed 10 a kind of sugar called maltese.

 Tho work Of digcsting food depends largely upon the preparation given by tho mouth.

Whenever little Johnny became too talkatiye. Mir. Mann Of Anytown would refer 10 him as "too mouthy."
 However Mr. Mann was bit talk ative himself.
 So Johnny, like his father, came to associate the mouth with talking, and with nothing else. ..-
 Now talking is not, and never was, the primary function Of the mouth.
 Long before men conversed, they ate.
 Food must tarry and be worked over before it starts on its journey to the stomach.

Rikhoff Seeks New Place for
Stolen Cars.

The free storage on recovered
stolen autos ended today when the
railroad construction company be-
gan excavation work on the south
side of police headquarters where
the department has been towing
cars and holding them until claimed.
Police Chief Herman Rikhon
reached an agreement with the
Glenn garage, to care for the cars
and hold for the owners at what was
described at a nominal storage fee.
Rikhoff said this was his only solu-
ton, because the police are forced
now to leave some cars used by the
department outside because of
crowded conditions Of the police
garage. He said it would provide
fire hazard and law violation to
park them in Pearl ST., which is too
narrow for parking.
