Loves Reawakening The Story of Wife's Triumph Over Jealousy
 By ADELE GARRISON

" Mrs. Hasbrouck's agitated query concerning the hurried footsteps out side in the hall needed no oral an- swer. Each one of us knew whose footsteps they were, and I hoped that my face reflected the poker calmness of Lillians instead of the panic-tinged excitement in Mary's young eyes.
 5 "Open the door, Pal" Mrs Has .brouck whispered. but her big hus 9 band shook his head. and we all sat motionless, breathless, until the footsteps stopped outside the door, and a rap sounded upon the panels. -' Then MT. Hasbrouck strode to the door and threw it open. revealing .the man who had trailed us in the sblack roadster.
 Good morning." he said, his eyes going from one ot us to the other with a scrutiny which was an inventory. That the detective was an unusually efficient person l knew, and it was going to be a harder task than we had fancied, this at tempt to keep him from following us closely upon our homeward jour ney.
 An Alert Detective
 Good morning." MT. Hasbroucll hoomed, and I paid a quick mental tribute to his poise. There was no trace of astonishment in his man. ner. nothing but a quizzical query as to the unusual hour of the guest s arising.
 Did you smell the breakfast ?' he asked with a broad companionablc grin. T tell Ma I could tell her coffee and baco nif I hadn't seen her for 40 years and was marooned on . desert island without knowing she was there with a camp fire"
 Get along with you. Egbert,' his wife Interrupted, playing up to his ~-eue.
 { She gave an amused little laugh . and turned 10 the man in the door [ way.
 , Would you like your breakfast { now, too?' she asked pleasantly. 'I !, can get it for you now just as well as not, or I can wait until the time you told me last night"
 Just a cup of coffee, please the stocky man in the doorway replied. T raust have been crazy last night not to have had that car fixed and brought over here before 1 slept I woke up about half an hour ago and remembered that there was some thing which I had forgotten to see to in New York. I've got to change my plans and go directly back there. And I want to get there before nine o'clock"
 MT. Hasbrouck's rejoineder was so prompt and plausibly encouraging that for a second I was dismayed- Then I caught his wife's eye and was suddenly treasured.
 There's no reason you can't" our host was saying, provided you can get Miller to open up and give you your car. What time did he promise it, did you say?''
 T told you last night" the man rejoined impatiently. 'Half-past seven"

FOLLOWING THROUGH By Alice JudsOn PeaIc

Fathers and mothers nowhere be- tray defects of character so clearly as in their common inability 10 follow things through with their children.
 Real adherence to routine in the small child's life requires of its mother stcadfast and wholeheart- cd devotion to the task which proves too much for many of us Unless we watch ourselves there are more and more exceptions to rules Meal time and bed time moro and more frequently miss the sched- uled hour and more and more often we are letting the children do this, and that flor just this once" Unless she can arrange for certain daily hours of freedom from family cares it is difficult for any woman consistently to follow through the routine on which children thrive. For every mother who tends to grow slipshod in matters of physical routine there are probably five who are so in the training of their chil- dren's characters.
 Mary kknoWs that she must make | her bed before she goes out to play
 on Saturday morning. but time and
 again she is allowed to leave the
 house with her bed unmade. Tom
 my may have been told that if he
 draws ahead of his allowance there
 will be a lean season. but when it
 arrives he pleads the misery of his penniless state and a good natured
 father gives him the price of q movie.
 1 Following through with our chill | dren requires a degree of self con- 1 trol which most of us have not 1 achieved If we are not to fall
 down on the job We must first make
 up our minds as to what we are
 going to demand. Having made
 sure that we are asking only what
 is wise and reasonable we must set
 about the difficult task of disciplln- 1 ing ourselves to follow through.

Chopin and Tuberculosis

Chopin. as is well known, suffered from tuberculosis.
 II is told of him that once, when he was travelling in southern France, he chanced to stay in the inn of a little town. No one there knew the traveller or his companion, George sand.
 It was noticed that Chopin was cmaciated and i!l His constant coughing, his periodic levers and his general debility soon led some of the natives to recognize that he was suf- fcrlng from consumption.
 Soon the entire town was against tn estranger who so evidently was bringing plague into their midst The opposition to his presence be- came so intense that the inn keeper was obliged to insist upon his re- moval, SO that, as the tale runs, George Sand was obliged to cart his sick composer out of town in a whcelbarrow, the only vehicle avail able.
 Such is the tale. and if not au- thcntic in fact, it is authentic enough in spirit. Were then the citizens of southern France so heartless that they would countenance the removal in a wheclbarroT of q mortally ill man. That is hardly the point. It was not the sick man they thought of. but the children at home whom. they though, they thus shield cd against the horrors of contamin- ation.
 The cause of tuberculosis was at this time, the carly part of the 18th century, entirely unknown. The man. ncr of it's spread was much disputed Doctors thought the disease heredi- tary.
 Zen LaennCC, at that period q leading student of the disease, be, lieved it was transmitted from par ent to offspring. Was not his owr | mother stricken down by the disease and was he not suffering from it" Most people on the other hand were inclined to believe the disease contagious and took measures 10 iso- late themselves from contact with lt Later observations demonstrated the common people were in th>

Mrs. Quack had told Peter Rabbit that oil was the cause of some of her troubles on her long journey up from the Sunny South. Peter didn't even know what oil was, but of course he was curious to know all about it.
 ''It is something that is on the water-something man puts there" explained Mrs. Quack. Tt doesn't mix with the water. but floats )n top. If a Duck, or other bird that swims on the water doesn't see if and gets into trouble it is dreadful. Yes. sir, it is dreadful"
 Why is it dreadful?" persisted Peter.
 Because" replied Mrs. Quack. it gets our feathers all matter to- gether. Birds often get in such con- dition that they cannot fly. We had to leave two of our flock behind IS two days ago" Mrs. Quack sai l this sadly.
 Do you mean you left them be- hind because they couldn't tiy?' Pc- ter asked. That's it." replied Mrs. Quack, They couldn't fly and they were sick besides. l think the oil made them sick, It scts worse and worse
 But where does it all come from" cried Peter.
 T don't know just where it all comes from" replied Mrs. Quacn but lot of it comes from bis ships. Of course you don't know what a ship is, It is a great big boat that ever so many men can live on at one time. And it sails on the ocean. You don't know what the ocean is 1t is q great body of water and the water is salt. "
 'I shouldn't like that" slid Petc2
 "Oh, that's all right" replied Mrs Quack, when you can fly to fresh water when you are thirsty and when you are hungry. There ar. some Ducks that live on fish and Of course, we Mallard Ducks gc, our food in fresh water. But when we are journeying We do sometimes spend some of our time on salt Wit. ter; especially where the salt waty. runs way up into the land. as '- does in many places.

\ Trying Moment


 Well, the chances are, that it's all ready, for you. The next thing is to get Miller out at this hour of the morning. Tell you what I'll do. You sit down and get your breakfast, and I'll go over and see what luck l have in routing Miller out. Ma, make a place for him. Let's sec, your name is Beaseley, I think you said, and these are Mrs. Underwood. Mrs. Graham and Miss Harrison. How about it, Mrs. Graham. Do you want me to help you start your car before I go, or will you wait until I come bacl?'
 "Oh, I'm sure it will start easily cnoungh.' I said, feeling instictive- ly that it was the answer he wish ed, He patently did not want the newcomer to hinll his entrance would cause any haste in our getting away,
 T tell you I don't want anything but d cup of coffee,' the man re- iterated. I'll go along with you up to the garage"
 All right" Mr. Hasbrouck agreed instantly. Just as you say. Ma, pour him his coffee, and then come in here. I haven't fixed up Mrs. Graham's bill, but it won't take a minute"
 From what I had seen of the Hasbrouck menage, I did not think the capable mistress of the house needed any aid or direction in mak- ing out a bill, and my pulses in creased their tempo as she followed him into the other room after plac. ing a cup of coffee and plate Of mullins before the stocky man who had seated himself opposite me. As he lifted his coffee he spoke, look ing directly at me. What Route? You're getting away early, too he said and the words were a ques- ton which l answered volubly.
 "Oh. yes, we want to get through New York by eight o'clock, out or Long Island if possible. I dread traffic so.'
 I saw Mary's eyes widen. thor dance mischievously and was thank ful that she had not giggled as sht , plainly wished. For she knows that I get distinct thrill from piloting 2 car through crowded traffic.
 Out on Long Island, eh ?" he said while Mary, Lillian and l raced through the remainder of our break fast while attempting an appearance i. of slower tempo.
 l Did you ever try the College Point ferry?"
 Purposcly I put on startled air as if l were confused at his words
 The College Point fcrry?' I re- | peated. Yes, I've gone home that way. but today I have to go straight l through 10 the city first, then over QueensborouSh Bridge" Had he read what l wished hin ! to glean from my words? l asked myself the question tcnsely as Mir 1 HasbroucK and his wife came back ! 10 the dining room.

much this season, and certainly II you
make the dress yourself you should
give special attention to the lingerie
that Is used to finish 1t.
The sketch shows the new tab jabot
trimming that Is used on some of the
new silk or wooden dresses. On rather
substantial dress these tabs may be
made of fine cotton pique. Silk pique
is appropriate for the substantial silk
dress and finer silk or cotton materials
may be used for lighter dress mate
rails.
The diagram shows half the tab. The
2-inch straight edge is laid on a fold
of material. Those shown here are
inches long by in width. Cut two
pieces for each tab, allowing IA inch on
all sides for scanning. Place the two
pieces together right side in and stitch
along the edge, leaving about 2 inches
unSewed at one side. Now turn the
tabs right side out, pinch along the
edges and turn in the portion that was
not stitched; overland the material to-
gether. Now press the tabs and they
are ready to use. The dress TO which
they are applied should have Sits made
in the front, as shown in the sketch.
They should be arranged horizontally,
in pairs about an inch apart. The Sits
may be finished as you would for a
bound buttonhoie. Draw each tab
through two Sits, so that the dress ma
terial goes over the center of the tab
and the ends of the tab extend out
ward and downward at the front Of
the dress.

are periodic hyperacidity, hunger pains,

said we should readjust the eating
