I had decided, partly because George neglected me, partly because I. 80 enjoyed his soclety, that 1 was perfectly justified in being with Mer- ton Gray whenever I could do so. I was convineed that George thought me not a good wife for him; that he even regarded his marriage to the fountry girl, so ignorant of social du- ties and amenities, as a mistake, but one which he would make the best of --~by leaving me to myself. Of course I did not feel this way all the time---not when George was nice. And he could be awfully nice. But 1 was not 'sufficiently trained in the ways of the world, not suffici- ently interesting, to make an interest- ing companion. He showed it in _his manner; of course I could but notice it. So, In spite of Mrs. Sexton, of my determination to learn my social duties as soon as possible, I was very often unbappy and discouraged. At such times Merton Gray was more than welcome. And If ever a shadow of a doubt as to the wisdom of being with him, or of allowing him to drep in when 1 was alone, crossed my mind, it was immediately dismissed. Then, too, Merton was good for me, so I argued. He had traveled extensively, and just to talk to him was a liberal education. The Danger Signa If there is a time in rs lite of a married woman when. she should hoist the danger signal, it is when she commences 'to make excuses-- to herself--because she is with an- other man than her husband. So when I sald to myself that this pol- |ished man of the world, this much sought after artist, could help me become the kind of woman my hus- band longed for me to be, I was treading very close to the danger point--for me. Something like great waves of pity would occasionally break over me; pity for myself. Another dan- ger signal which I did not heed. For it is amazing how much comfort one ¢an get from self pity. It is possi- ble that, had George been less neg- lectful, I never would have intrigued myself into thinking so much about PLAYING WITH FIRE Merton Gray. Bul -guickengd: $0, life, the cells of-my soul stirred and became articulate clamoring : for what 'was my dde; for what every woman believes is her heritage--the jas love of some man. 3 Never before had I contrasted my- I felt belittled and chagrined when 1 thought: of my: position as the wife lof 'a wealthy and popular man. My {husband evidently looked upon me fas mentally, as well as socially, the terior of his old time women friends. self 'with the women 1 met In a ¢as- ual manner. Never had: I 'envied and (bravery of their lives. Now, sud- denly, there loomed always before me the idea that I, too, must be: possessed of all this, if T'would | i to cope with them. ' The thou was appalling. Yet I was determin- ed to make good--to show George Howard that the woman, the country girl, he had married, was the equal of any he had known. I knew there was something in my life; this new untried life upon which 1 was enter- ing, upon which I had entered; which alternately thrilled and frightensd |' me; but for which I sensed am im- perative need, the need of poise; of worldliness, of all the social graces lacking in a country girl. At times I felt as if 1 was playing in somo fragtic masquerade. - That 1 would wake up and find myself back home with father and mother and the boys, Just a plain, happy, country girl. The Surge of Love, Then again, when George would show an unwontod 'affection for me, I would forget all but him; 'snd at his sudden and unexpected revival of affection, 'which seemed ito Spring up 'with renewed vigor, life 'would not seem so dreary, such a puzzle, at- ter 'all. To have him back again seemed the one issue, the one de- sire of my Hfe. Then l:would:for- get Merton Gray, and the 'others whom I knew, sometimes even Evelyn and Kurts, and devote myself with all the abandon youth tothe task of pleasing the man I had married. 'Then tho reaction, How wretchiodly Goorge had treat- ed me, 'This always lay in a vague heap in the background of my mind, even while everything was suberdi- nate to my keen- desire to have him care for me. 'He neglocted me so. Was life worth living under such an emotional stress? LET HIM LIVE. The following verses are inscrib- ed on a brass plate in a local office and are so appropriate that the Whig has been asked to give them wider publicity: As long as the flowers their fume give, So long I'd let the Kaiser live, Live and live for a million years, With nothing to drink but Belgium tears, With nothing to quench his awful thirst, But the salted brine of the Secotch- man's curse. | I would let him live on a dinner each day ' Served from silver on a golden tray, Served with things both dainty and sweet, Served with everything but things to eat. per- And I'd make him a bed of silken sheen With costly linens to lie between, With covers of down and fillets of lace And downy pillows piled in place, Yet; when to its comfort he would yield, It For stink with rot from the battlefield, And blood, and bones, and brains of men Should Sover him, smother him, and the rotten clay, Clay from the grave of a soldier boy, And 'while God's stars their vigils k i oop, il!

Women of today have 80 much to-do along other lines that a few hours must ve stolen from home cares if all that is on the daily calendar is to be accomplished. Yet the home cannot be neglected. The remedy, therefore, is to so arrange the things necessary for the beauti- fication of the home so that they can be achieved within the alotted for such work. The embroidery design illustrated is exceedingly pretty for the decora- tion of a gnest towel. THe pattern supplies six of the- motifs and sev- eral colors in 'a variety of stitches may be used in the development of the design. For instance, the out- "lime stitch may be employed for the bluebird, with French knots for the dots, 'which are also in blue. The leaves, in two shades of green, are in satin stitéch worked from the mid- rib to each edge. For the flowers, delicate shades of pink in long and short stitch may be used with stem stitch for the brown stems. As a decoration for a skirt or costume of any of the soft materials in vogue for spring and summer the design is also exquisite. The ends of the towel are hem- | stitched. If further decoration is desired, a crochet edge may be add- ed. Tatting is also in great demand for trimming guest towels. It is one of the simplest of laces to make and mény women Who have but little success with crocheting and knitting véver fall to do ftatting well. Be- sides, it Is interesting.
