A Wife's Confessional

from Jerry punctuated my speech, but l was sure l detected a hope full note in the sound and guessed that his mother did also, for she turned on him with eXasperation in her face and eyes,
 You, Jerry, get out of here" she said, "and wash your face. When you look decent you come back and beg Ms Graham's pardon for what you done. I should think you'd be more ashamed than ever to have her ask me 10 let you keep Lady Not that It's going to do you any good" she added darKly, Tout if I should change my mind it'll be be- cause Ms Graham asked me 10 do it."
 When Guilt Lashcs Victims
 With a marked diminution of his weeping. Jerry arose and with his arms still shielding his face from view stumbled out of the kitchen. He amblcd toward the pump be- meath one of the grape arbors where Jim generally performs his facial ablutions. His mother shut :he door after him, then turned to me with a distressed air. paused in my quest for the things l needed to carry out Katherine's request, and went over to her swiftly. Her hu- initiation that her boy should have been guilty of so miserable a trick was written on her face and lurked piteously in her eye.
 Dear Mrs. Ticer," I said, put ting my hand comfortingly on her shoulder, please do not distress yourself about this another instant. It was only a boyish prank and I am not hurt in the least"
 She put up her hand, caught mine and put it against her cheek for an instant before releasing it, while I marvelled at the gesture from a person so unemotional as Mrs. Ticer.
 And small thanks to Jerry that you are not" she cried, "I don't know what possessed the boy, set ting that old circus nag to dancing while you were on his back. Why! When she kneeled down and tipped you off you might have broken your neck if you hadn't landed just right And then Jerry'd be in jail, charged with murder"
 ooh, hardly so bad as that" said. smiling, but she went on un- needing:
 And to think that I wouldn't have known a thing about it If 1t hadn't been for that friend of Doc Pettits. He came into the kitchen after the doc had climbed into his car and gave me Hall Columbia. He said that Jerry nearly had killed you and that he would make 1t his business to see that the boy was taken care of where he ought to be if I didn't promise to punish him soundly and keep an eye on him."

nics and hundreds of other little woodland creatures.
 And when they all came and saw the cunning little teeny weeny houses they thought they were so very, very nice they all wanted to live there and have Toofe, the ma gician, for the mayor of the Tiny City.
 But dear mel" Toofie cried when he saw so many woodland creatures. There are not one half enough houses for all the creatures who are here, and there arc sure 10 be more coming soon"
 And even as he spoke, more It. tie woodland creatures came run- ming Up crying, Are we too late? Are we too late?" and Toof1e shook his head sadly and replied. T am afraid you are, We did not expect there were so many little woodland creatures who would wish new houses, and the carpenter and l have built all We can build today, for the carpenter must be very tired,"
 Don't you believe it" the crea- ture cried as he rolled up his sleeves. "If you will make more boards and nails with your magic. Mir. Toohe, I will soon build a lot more houses"
 But even if you build them twice as fast as you did before, we shall never be able 10 catch up with the number 10 supply all the crca- lures who are coming" Then he turned 10 Raggedy Ann, who had been sitting upon the roof of a tiny house and thinking very, very hard,
 What shall we do, Raggedy Ann?" he asked.
 Well" Raggedy Ann said as she ran her hand up through her yarn hair, If you cannot build the houses fast enough for the little homeless creatures, why don't you take your magic charms, and wish for the houses already built, And just the size for the creature who wishes it?"
 "Hurrah, for Raggedy Ann" Too fe cried as he gave Raggedy Ann a hug. That's just what I shall do. And l will build soda water ice cream parlor in the center of Tiny Town and everything in it will be free 10 all the woodland crca- tures"
 So in a few minutes, the queer little magician had done all he said he would do, and more, for with his magic, he furnished each little house with all the furniture it need cd and built a meat market and a fine little magic grocery so that everyone could have all the food and goodies they wished free oi charge.

 Stanley Wayburn looked all around him as he come into the living room.
 His ice-blue eyes took in the long room with its cream walls, it's Chi ncse rugs, it's gay cushions and lamps. There was a tea table drawn up beside the fire.

What was wrong, under the circumstances, for May to go out. driving or lunching with other men .'.. with Jim Ca rewe. in particular? And suppose the gossips did talk about her? !. They were probably jealous of the good times she had
 
 With this comforting thought, Gloria laid her bright head on the pillow and was asleep.
 At 10 the next morning May tele- phoned.
 If you aren't doing anything spe- cial today, let's go downtown and bat around" she said. I've got to buy some new cream for the dear l.. old face. I'm getting crows feet. Fancy that, sweet cookie! At my age! e. Can you so with me-"
 Gloria said she could. An hour later she and May were rolling down town in Mays little car.
 Aren't you ever going to drive Dicks car?" May asked.
 'I guess not. He takes 1t every morning, himself" Gloria answered.
 "Wel, don't let him get away with that stuff. Just let him learn to use the street car. right from the start or walk" May advised her.
 SBetter still, may him buy you a little car of your own for bridge parties and luncheons," May went on, inspired. You'll never get any thing in this world if you don't ask for it. I've found that out"
 An hour later they were sitting in the Soda Shoppe restaurant.
 "I love to eat down here" May said. When I'm at home for lunch I never can eat bite. !. .. It gives me the blues just to be there, alone"
 Gloria wasn't listening. She was wondering if she could make Dick buy her a car. She was pretty sure she could she felt sure that she could manage him. make him do anything she wonted to do .. so long as she paid him in the coin Of her kisses, kept his senses en- | thralled.
 She looked at May critically. May was coarsening. She wore too much rouge. =. May was smiling with narrowed eyes at someone across the restaurant.
 And in a minute or two, Gloria saw Jim Carewe leave his table near the wall and cross the room toward them.
 Jim Carewe was one of Mays old flames. The town gossips said he was still in love with her,
 Don't you girls want to go for . nice long drive this afternoon" Jim asked, looking down at May. =

Living in a small town, Mrs. Mann's children know little about poisonous snakes. But as soon as school is out they plan to spend several weeks in the woods.
 So Mrs. Mann dug into her library to find out what to do in case of snakebite.
 Here's what she learned:
 Keep the poison from circulating through the body. This is done by tying a cord, rope or necktic a short distance from the bitten spot, and between the latter and the heart.

 She rose from her chair and went into the sunroom to watch him go down the street.
 And the first thing she saw was Dicks gray roadster swinging into the drive!
 Gloria rushed upstairs. She tore off the green dress as she went. She slipped into linen house frock. She was back in the living room by the time Dick had put his car in the garage,
 "HelIo. there" he said when he came in. "Who was tho shiek I saw leaving the house as I came up the street?"
 Gloria didn't answer at once.
 Suddenly Dick seemed very dear. He was no love-pirate, spending his time trying to win the forbidden love of every woman he saw but a good man who love her with all his soul. Could she tell him a lie?
 Gloria rushed to him and hid her head against his breast. She kissed his necktie
 "Who was the man saw" Dick asked again. His deep gray eyes were very serious. Gloria drew a long breath.
 "Oh, that was Mir. What's-His- Name the man I bought my lamp shades from, that's who it was," she said. "He put the wrong kind of silk in them. I wanted them to be georgette crepe. He's used taffata. What brings you homo so early?"
