Quicksands of Love
 Adele Garrison's New Phase of -ReDeldfions Of q Wife

through my dreams that of a woman | often have thought was my Nemesis-the figure of Grace Draper. When I finally wakened l knew of course what had brought her image to my mind when l had not thought of her in years. It was Dicky's sneering appellation Of Faithful Fido" to Hugh Grantland. This through the association of ideas had revived my terrified re- membrance of her. Hotly l had re- sented Dicky's use of the term be- cause I felt that both of us owed all fealty to Hugh Grantland for his rescue of our boy from the kidnap- per to whom Grace Draper had con- signed him. Naturally I had relived the whole of that terrorized time in the moments of my angry dispute with Dicky over the matter, and the figure of the woman who had caused me so much mental anguish was wildly before me.
 suppose subconsciously the fear of her never has left me. At any rate, in my dreams upon the park bench, there was omitted no horrible incident of her long vendetta against me because of her crazed love for Dicky which later had turned into even more frenzied hate.
 My dreams went back to the day when Dicky and l first saw her upon the train to Marvin when he and l, but a few months married, were looking for a little home in the country. Vividly I saw her in the marvellous young beauty that was hers, and saw also Dicky's excite ment in finding the 'perfect model" |" as he dubbed her. My dreams swept on to the first time she attempted my life when she dived beneath me while we were swimming in the ocean and seizing my ankle pulled me under the water. There followed in quick succession other dread pie lures, of her shooting of Dicky and the stabbing of herself and of her almost successul plot to kill Dicky during his trial flight in the aviation field during the World War. The Kidnapping of Junior and the plot against the Government in which she unsuccessfully had tried to have me given up to terrible death-not one of them was omitted, and through them all, I heard her voice saying quintessence of venom in its tones:
 Tt is a good scheme: We will drag her through the mire.'

Your Health How to Keep It.
 Causes of Illness

BY DIR. MORRIS FIsHBEIN Editor Journal of the American Medical Association and of Hygeia
 the Health Magazine
 Recently there came to medical attention the case of a woman who had been the victim of the search for beauty through surgery. She was the wife of prominent mer- chant in a foreign country.
 When she was eight years old she was operated on for the relief of tuberculous glands in her neck. She grew up. married successfully and gave birth to a handsome son.
 But in the meanwhile her life. comfortable enough otherwise. was disturbed because the scars of her operation showed when she wore evening dress.
 Tours Europe
 Finally she set out upon tour of Europe. She arrived in Paris, there she consulted several eminent Surgeons. all of whom advised against operation.
 Then she heard, through the press notices of the theatrical pa pers, that American beauty doctors were doing marvels in such cases. In this country she reached finally beauty doctor widely heralded through paid publicity secured by publicity agents.
 She was intrigued and coaxed into an operation by cleverly written pamphlets detailing the success ac- complished on worn-out actresses and movie stars. She decided at last not only on an operation on her neck but also on face lifting, face peeling, wrinkle removing and siml- lar procedures.
 No Ancsthctic These operations were carried on in the office of the beauty doctor. without an anesthetic and rather crudely In the arrangements for cleanliness. A qualified surgeon works in qualified and reputable hospital. Advertising beauty doctors are not admitted to reputable hos pitals.
 The woman finally left the minis trations of the beauty doctor. She had unsghtly scars, worse even than those for which she had origin ally consulted him.
 Her skin, irritated by the caustic chemicals used to peel it. continued to give off fine scales. The lifting operations. the loss of blood, the weeks necessary for recovery In low grade hospital in which the beauty doctor finally placed her, left the woman nervous, melancholy mentally a wreck.
 A reputable surgeon makes no guarantees of success in plastic sur gerry. The disreputable beauty doc tor relies on the shame of the pa tient and her fear of rldicule to protect him when his surgery goes wrong, as it so often does.

Does Madge's Strange Dream Fore bole III?
 found 1t possible to sleep but fittully during the night follow ing the cryptic cablegram from Hugh Grantland which he had asked me to relay to my father. l could not rid my self of the notion that the message portended something ominous to the only senior one Of my blood left to me. When the dawn came and found me still with wide open eyes, I knew that l must do something drastic to induce even two hours of sleep, for 1 had a hard days schedule ahead of me.
 Moving softly. so that l should rouse no one else in the house, went to the bathroom and dashed cold water over my face and neck until I felt somewhat refreshed. Then I put on a costume suitable for swift walk, and going down stairs, let myself out the front door and started up the parkway below the Drive.
 Ordinarily I love walking, and especially at that hour in the morn irg which Is the quietest and the loveliest, when the sun is just begin ming to show. But this morning there was nothing of enjoyment in the walk, and though I tramped a long way up the Drive, I got no eX- hilaration from the exercise. But l did succeed in tiring myself out, and I knew that when I returned to the apartment I should be able to get the nap I so sorely needed.
 I was more tired than l thought, however, and when l had retraced my steps to within a half mile of the house, I sank down in secluded seat In an angle of the wall separat ing the parkway from the Drive above it. It was one completely hid den by shrubbery, and no one pass ing would have dreamed that any one was sitting there.
 With my head against the back of the seat, I gave myself up to the fatigue resulting from my walk, and though I made several resolutions to get up and go home they faded away in the making. and in a few minutes I was fast asleep.
 How long my involuntary nap lasted I do not know. l remember vaguely that I shifted my position several times, because my neck felt cramped from the hard seat. I sup pose the fantastic dreams night mares rather-which came to me were caused by the same thing.

 Good morning." squeaked Danny. Jimmy didn't hear him. Good morn ing. Neighbor Skunk" cried Danny a little louder in that squeaky voice Of his.
 "I suppose 1t is,' replied Jimmy Skunk sleepily.
 You suppose what is?" demanded Danny, looking puzzled.
 Why, a good morning, of course '' retorted Jimmy. What are you do- ing over here at this hour?"
 I'm looking for some news" re- piled Danny. Gan you tell me where that big Man Bird is-the one that brought me here to the seashore ?''
 How should I know?" replied Jimmy rather shortly. That Man Bird flew away the very day you got here. How should I know where it is?"
 What" squealed Danny. "Wh- Wh what was that you said?"
 T said that that big Man Bird flew away long ago." replied Jimmy whats that 10 yon? What are you whimpering about"
 'II-I want to go home. LII want 10 go home and now I c-c-c-an't. What shall I do?"

of course, 1t will take me back home, just as it brought Nanny and me back rom the Sunny South. The first chance I get l think I'll run over to the bathhouse and see if Jimmy Skunk is living under it now. He ought 10 know where 1t is"
 Now, Danny didn't dare 20 out al night for fear that Short-car the Marsh Owl would catch him. And he was afraid that Reddy Fox was watching for him by day Wasn't that q dreadful situation 10 be in? But Danny had made up his mind that if he got out al all. it would have to be in the daytime. He want ed 10 start early in the morning, but he didn't dars do that. But later that morning h. heard heavy footsteps. They We're the footsteps of one of those two-lcgged Crca- lures called men. They passed very close to that old log under which Danny was hiding.
 Now is my chance" cried Damn, 10 himself "Ecddy Fox won't be hanging around with one of those two- legged creatures here.'
 So those footsteps had hardly passed when Danny darted out from under the old log and headed straight for a certain bathhouso It was some time since he had been over there and he wasn't sure that Jimmy Skunk was still living there.

JOHNS NIGHT

For a moment there was an awk- on. I'm hungry, I just remember that l haven't had any luncheon to- day. Whether l am more like an angel or a chicken may be discussed and disputed, but there can be only one thing about my healthy appc- tic, and it's making a noise just now like a tiger which must be ap- peased."
 | I heard Joan say 10 her brother when we arrived at the porte cochcre T am afraid you are learning very fast, Buddy" for he had calmly taken q seat beside me in the town car and left his sister and his friend 10 take the other seats.
 If he heard her he made no sign. I could not help looking at him. It seemed to me when I thought after ward about it and him that John Meredith had some queer feeling that only that night was his and he intended to let no one spoil it, not even himself.
 Consequently, when he sat beside me he threw his arm about my shoulder in a perfectly matter of fact way and drew me up to him. I nestled down beside his heavy English coat and l seemed to myself quite happy.
 When we arrived at the BeauN Arts Restaurant l found much 10 my surprise that Mamie was waiting with Jerry
 Were you the girl that Jerry was going to take out if I didn't go with him." I asked
 "No. my dear" that was just Jcr- rvs bunk, I hadn't expected to 20 anywhere with him, but Miss Mere dith called mo up late this afternoon and asked me if I would let Jerry call for me and bring me down here to dinner. She explained that her brother seemed to have taken 9 great fancy to you and for the first time in his life he had arranged a public party at which he was making his appearance among a number of people. She said that she was afraid a foursome would make the party almost too intimate, so she had per suaded Jerry 10 attend and suggest cd that he should bring me. Arc you glad I came, Judy"
 "Very glad" I answered, for l saw immediately that the presence of Mamie and Jerry would effcctual- ly put a stop to any more love-mak- ing, however surreptitious I had reckoned however without that feel ing that seemed to be hanging ever John.
 He had evidently laid himself and his affairs on the knees of the gods and determined to be happy in his own way for that one evening,
 His hermit-lke life had made John Meredith perfectly oblivious to everyone but himself, after the first moment when he got over his self consciousness. With a glance around the room he dismissed everyone eX- cept himself and me from his con- sciousness. I had a feeling that to him there was no one else in that vast dining room but myself.
 As l had requested Jerry, we had very conspicuous table, and yet it was arranged in such a manner that no one was very near us. When we started down the long room, John had possessed himself of my wrap and putting his hand upon my bare arm he led me without any feeling of the unconventionality of it to the gorgeously flower -decked table, and the others followed. John placed me on his right and Jerry appropriated the chair at my left with Mamie next him.
