The committee will report TO the Council
in the middle of December so that th4
proposal will go before Congress in Janu
ary.
Apparently all efforts to prevent war
between Abyssinia and Italy will fail
The Council of five made its recommen
dations for the basis of peaceful settle
ment of the dispute. 1t is said that Italy
is not satisfied with the concessions offer
ed and MpssolinI has ordered a general mo
bilZation. The presense of Italian troops
on the Egyptian border and the warlike
preparations of Great Britain arecausing
uneasiness in Europe. The cream of the
British fleet is now assembled in the
Mediterranean. anti-aircraft guns have
been posted and large number of Bril-
fish submarines are ready for the call to
active service. France has decided TO
spend a large sun for Immediately 10
creasing its air forces.
The peace of Europe and eventually
the peace of the world seem to depend
entirely upon the will of the Italian dlcta
tor = this is one reason why we are op
posed to a government by dictatorship.
AS an economy measure to save ex
pense to the taxpayers by eliminating

single girl cannot get through her
work."
Jane bore 1t for . time with exem-
plary patience. She told herself that
she had married q genius. 0eniuses
could not be expected to behave
even as you and I. Still, 1t did seem
sometimes that James was display
ing more selfishness than tempera-
ment. And she had no intention Of
encouraging selfishness.
AS the weeks went on James de-
veloped q succession Of irritating
habits. Jane was soon complaining
to her mother Of her husband.
whats the matter? You seem
worried" Mrs. Northrup said one
morning when Jane dropped in for
her usual daily chat. They were In
the upstairs sitting room. II was ex-
tremely hot and Mrs. Northrup had
closed the heavy wooden shutters,
leaving one pair slightly open for
light. Mrs. Northrup was hemming
napkins and Jane had brought her
crocheting. Neither believed In vast
ing the daylight hours by sitting with
idle hands.
Though they wore light Summer
dresses, Mrs. Northrup's Of black
and white percale and James Of blue
swiss dotted in white, they were
heavily and tightly corseted. James
face was framed in little damp black
curls. Her cheeks were flushed and
there were tiny beads of perspira-
ton on her perfect upper lip.
MY. but you are a pretty thing"
Mrs. Northrup went on affection
ately. But you mustn't frown,
dearie. 1t will make lines on your
forehead. Tell me what's bothering
you. Perhaps I can fix it."
Jane was seated in a low rocking
chair close to her mothers. She i'm
mediately ceased to frown, smooth
ing away with her fingers any shad-
dows of the threatened lines. James
wants a dog" she said ruefully. HE
talks Of nothing else-dog, dog, dog
from the time he gets up In the
morning until he goes to bed at
night"
But James has a dog, hasn't he?
Two or three, as remember"
Two. But he left them at his Aunt
Sarah's because they were old and
used to the place. Now he actually
wants to buy q great big hulking
puppy and raise 1t by hand. Natur-
ally all of the raising and bother
would fall to me. I tell him I won't
have q dirty, Whitney, noisy brute
messing up my house and breaking
all my bric-a-brac. And I will not"
II should think that would settle
it."
Settle it? You ought to be mar
ried to James for a week or two.
When he wants anything. no matter
how unreasonable. he thinks it ought
to be my greatest pleasure to tear
myself to pieces to get it."
"I'd soon disabuse his mind Of that
idea" Mrs. Northrup jabbed viciously
with her needle into the damask.
Tomorrow, the Stimson menaKe
sustains its first major calamity.

CHAPTER XVIII.
ROUGH CORNERS.

vAMES and Jane, meantime, were
spending most of their evenings
arranging or rearranging their
~ brand-new furniture and 326
wedding presents, or at least
Jane was arranging and rearranging
while James was admiring each sue
ceeding effect.
Lord" James groaned one evening
in mock despair, IT don't believe that
any one outside the Vanderbilts and
Astors ever had so much truck"
They were in the dining room. Jane
had just finished cramming groan-
ing cabinet with plentitude OF
elaborate and heavy cut glass. Another
cabinet displayed an infinitesimal part
of their hand-painted china.
Their plate rail, their tables and
mantels and bureaus and bookcases
could scarcely hold all their valuable
bric-a-brac. Clocks ticked In every
room, pictures crowded the walls, fancy
covers adorned the tables, mirrors
cleaned in every available nook.
"I'll never be able to live up to 1t. +"
James went on. IF ever two people
started housekeeping in champagne
style on a beer income it's U.s."
well, wasn't brought up in beer
style and neither were you. I've long
prided myself on being able to make
a dollar do the work OF two. Don't
you worry. Anyway, there's always
father to fall back on"
"Your fathers heaped us with obli-
cations already. I don't mind him
giving you an allowance to spend on
yourself, but I'd prefer to pay the
house bills live on what I make. F"
"All right" Jane replied cheer
fully. Father has done an awful lot.
It's up to you now to hustle around
and bring home the bacon"
I'm trying to do just that" James
said humbly.
"Of course, you are. OF course, I
expect you to. Making a living is the
very least of what I expect of you" :"
Jane smiled at him brightly and
James kissed her. He did wish, how
ever, that Jane did not accept the
making Of living so casually.

expect Jane to do without a servant.
Even in the mansion they would have
had to have a servant. Jane expected
him to compliment her frequently
because she managed to get along
with one. And with all the busting
The servant question loomed large
on the young Stimsons' horizon. Jane
had already tried out two and lost
them. Later she lost others. But this
Jane claimed was more James fault
than hers and Jane probably was right.
In spite of all his good resolutions.
James proved himself far from a
model husband. Jane often said that
five minutes after he came through
the front door the house looked as If
a baby elephant had been rampaging
through it. James tried to remember
to hang up his hat, to put away his
umbrella, not to strew papers and
parcels and God knows what all over
the back parlor table.
He remembered one day and for
got the next. Just as he forgot impor-
tant and vital matters like hours for
meals.
IT don't see," he protested vigW-
ously, "why the stars should stop in
their courses because I am 10 or
