Married Life the Third Year By MABEL HERBERT URNER. Ethel Barrymore Tells Girls Why t *T tORRIED and depressed. Helen \l\/ went in to straighten up Alice's room the morning after her de parture. Everything was in disorder from ihe hurried pac king. Tissue paper, strings and empty boxes lay scat tered about, and where the trunk had set wa$ a dusty square. •The whole unpleasant scene of the night before kept beating in Helen’s mind. And not only had Alice cut short her visit and left In a high dudgeon—the memory of that was distressing enough—but even more di-tiessing was the fear of what Aunt Emuia and Warren's other relatives might say That Alice would not hesitate to disparage both her and Warren Helen knew, and about her visit she would probably tell many things that were not true. Helen was always keenly sensitive arbout what people "might say," and now she could think of nothing but the unpleasant surmises and com ments that Warren’s relatives would make With brooding anxiety, she put back her clothe?, in the bureau drawers rfnd -the closet that .she had epiptied for Alice's convenience. Besides tlie burnt bureau scarf she now discov ered other evidences of Alice's care lessness. A black smudge on the rug showed where she had glossed her shoes, the wall paper was sprinkled w'ith ink where she had shaken a fountain pen, and on the back of one of the chairs a wet towel had been flung, leaving the varnish dulled and whitened. While Helen was still putting the room to rights Warren called up from tbfe office. "T won’t have time to write that letter to Aunt Emma,” he announced, "so you’ll have to write it. And you'd better get it off right away.” Helen at a Loss. "But. dear, what shall 1 say?" fal tered Helen. “.tust say that Alice took it into her head to go and that we couldn't keep her.” •But couldn't you write to-night or to-morrow?” persisted Helen. “You , ,,uld do it so much better than I.” Yes. and then Alice would have Mine to tell her mother a lot of lies. Now. you get that off right away! I want it to go out to-night." When Helen turned from the phone it was wit'll the greatest reluctance that she went over to the desk to write this letter. For her letter writing was always most difficult, and from a letter like this her mind re coiled. How should she begin it? What could she say? Site did not want to hurt Aunt Emma, and yet it was only fair to them that she should know just how headstrong and unruly Alice bad been. After much chewing of her pen and many discarded beginnings, ihe letter was finally finished. New York. April 24, 1913. I>pai Aunt Emma: I regret very much that Alice should have epded her visit in this way We did everything we could to persuade ber not to start off last night, but she was so headstrong that nothing we . ould sav had any effect. She de- . hired if we did not take her to the tation slie would go alone—so what • ould we do? The only csuise for all this was that wp tried to do what you asked—to keep her from seeing that Mr. Hamp ton He came on from Philadelphia and railed here at 7 to take Alice out. Rut Warren refused to let him see her. This so incensed Alice that she at once began to pack her trunk, declar ing that she would not stay with us another night. I pleaded and \N ar- ren scolded, but ^he would listen to neither of us. She said she was en gaged to this man and that she was old enough to do as she pleased. I think you are quite right in feeling that a man of his age, and a divorced man, is most unsuited for Alice. T liope you will be able to break it all off—but Alice is very headstrong. 7 am sending by parcel post some tilings she left in her haste. I hope vou have gotten the house in shape again, that you are over the worst effects of the flood, and that Alice’s unexpected return will not make things harder. We both regret more than I can say that her visit should have such an un pleasant ending, but we trust you will understand that we did all we could to prevent it. Sincerely, your niece, HELEN. Helen was so far from satisfied with this letter that she wanted to call up Warren and read It to him over the phone, but she know lie would be too hurried and impatient to listen. So. reluctantly, .she took it out to the mail chute. The next two days were for Helen most unhappy ones. She iva« con j stantly being forced to explain Alice's ' sudden departure. ‘It was very em-’l bar rawing, particularly when Carrie i Warren’s sister, called up to invite Alice to a luncheon. . The Answer. But even more distressing wa« her haunting dread of what Aunt Emma would think and of just what Allcf would tell her. It was Helen's nature to worry—and over this she worried herself almost ill. When the next morning at break fast she found by her plate a thick letter in Aunt Emma's handwriting, anxiously she tore it open. Dayton. Ohio, April 27. 1913. My Dear Helen: I believe Warren paid for Alice’s ticket the night she left, and I hasten to return the amount in this. If there is anything else that she owes you. will you kind ly let us know, as neither Georg* nor 1 wish to be further indebted to you? The check Warren sen’ George the week after the flood we will return tire first of the month. I regret that we can not do so sooner. It was. of course, a mistake that Alice ever visited you. I would never hat e suggested it had I dreamed that it would end as it has. As upset and distracted as we were after the flood, 1 see now that it would have been much better for her to have stayed here. You seem to have failed wholly to understand her. She has an exceptionally nervous, sensitive nature. She has always been del icate. and we have always tried to keep from her any needless irri tation or excitement. That you should have let her start home at-midnight, in an ex cited, unstrung state, showed, to say the least, a lack of consider ation on your part. I would not have let the most casual visitor leave my house under such con ditions. much less a girl like Alice. I can not understand what you and Warren were thinking of to allow it. When Alice arrived she was in almost a state of collapse. It is needless for me to try to conceal the fact that l am very indignant about it all. and 1 think George shares my indignation, although he may not admit it so frankly. I am exceedingly sorry that we ever troubled you. and I assure vou we will not trouble you again. AUNT EMMA. "What's struck you?" demanded Warren, as Helen gasped her dismay and indignation. "It’s from Aunt Emma the most AWFUL letter:” handing it across the table.. No More Relatives. Warren read tile letter and threw it down with a grim: "Well, that lets us out! 1 guess we're about through trying to help any relatives. Understand ? Your relatives or mine—we’ll steer clear of the whole bunch.” "But, dear. MY people have never troubled ue!” "Well, I've noticed they re not above making it a convenience to stop here when they come to New York. "Why, Warren, you know very wen that Uncle Henry is the only one of my family that's EVER stopped here. And he was going to a hotel if you hadn't insisted. I don't see how you CAN infer that my relatives have made a. convenience of us!" "Well. I said we're through with ALL relatives, didn't I? And that's exactly what i meant. Hereafter if people' want to come to New York for ten days or for one day they 11 put up at' a hotel. From now on they’re going to And it pretty blamed hard to work us! 1 guess one lesson along this line will be just about enough!” Watch Your Complexion Grow Lighter D O you want n fairer com plexion?

Daysey May me and Her Folks By FRANCES L GARS ED E A S kin (Commissioner General of the United State*. Lysander John Appleton occupies* a posi tion the importance of which is well appreciated by his large and steadily inc reasing kin-ridch n constituency. It lies within his jurisdiction to de cide to which vide of the warring fac tion of a family belong the family jewels and the feather bed. When a woman dies, he decides the right of her children or her husband's next wife to her "things.” that being the generic term for petticoats, hair switches, family albums, the butter knife, the hot water bag and the cameo pin the deceased left, Sind' which assume great value when her husband marries again. Speedy Opportunity. It is be who draws an immovable I line bet ween kinship and friendship. I "is a man as near kin to Ills wife's ugly sivier as he is to her sister who is beautiful?” was a question that re mained undecided until Lysander John j Appleton was elected to office, and it was he who decided in plain and un mistakable terms that a young hus band's embarrassment in railing his mother-in-law "Mother” was not se rious heeaus'e of the speedy oppor tunity that would be offered for ad dressing her as "Grandma." While tiiere has been some com plaint that battleships have not been ordered out to enforce his decisions the helpless kin-hampered citizens be lieving that they had a right to enjoy the protection so freely accorded to Americans who voluntarilv exiV themselves to warring foreign landa— there has been a disposition to be lieve that General Appleton was doing his best. Therefore, when it became known that lie was to have a birthday every one who was awaiting a. kin decision in ips. or her favor, decided to pro pitiate him with a gift. But what could it be? For it is con ceded that to buy a suitable gift for a man requires a wisdom that Is al most divine. "He smokes!" was the joyous dis- covery of a woman who wanted a de cision against her husband's mother. "H** smokes,” rang down the line of grandparents, fathers, mothers, un cles. sisters, cousins, aunts and all the in-laws, and everyone rejoiced as a m.ci) w ho is lost on strange roads re joices when he sees a guide board The Presents Arrive.

Forty years ago the restaurant was famous for its food and frequenters, who included nearly every celebrity in Europe It was then King Edward's favorite restaurant in Paris, always faultlessly conducted, al though strongly dashed with bohemian- ism. All that was best in the social and artistic world was to be rfound there. It was one of the few restaurants which kept open through the siege, and there was ground for belief in the story that it never remembered afterward to re duce its prices. The romance of a fortune that was made out of revenge is k recalled in New York by the death of E. S. Welles, the inventor of a world-famous rat poison. When Mr. Welles and the man with whom he then worked were living in poverty, and had only a single loaf of bread between them and starvation, this last morsel of food was eaten by. rats. Welles swore vengeance and set about discovering a means to rid the world of rats. After numerous experiments he began the manufacture of "Rough on Rats" in an old barn in Jersey City, and in four years he rose to affluence The new King of Greece is among the tallest of monarchs. but those who ascribe Ms inches solely to his Roman off blood on his mother's side forget his stalwart Danish ancestors.

I know one stage beauty who is f ir lovelier in her little dressing room than all the glare and tinsel of stage illusion can make her.

You are always hearing women talk of the "nameless longing" in their hearts, as if it were something beyond the comprehension of mere man. If she is single this nameless longing is for 4 a lover, and if she is married, it is for money. In the books a woman returns a letter from a discarded lover unread, but in real life curiosity would arouse her from a deathbed, if need be, to break the seal. In the stories she gives a gulping sob as she leaves the room after a quarrel, and he is Gone Out of Her Life Forever. In real life site has to go to the shop where he works next day to buy sausage, and he waits on her. The Suffragettes in speech and pamphlet tell how wives have to ac count to their husbands for every penny the; spend. If the men had to listen to the account of how their wives spend every penny there wouldn't be insane asylums enough to hold them. in bonks a girl's neck looks like white marble, and those who see it are driven to writing poetry. In real life s girl's neck causes every house keeper present to make a mental note to buy spareribs for dinner next day. In the books a young woman never mentions “the dear old home" without moist eyes, and in real life she never lives in one home longer than five years. In the stories there is always a trusted servant, who has been with the family forty years; in reality no servant is kept as long as forty weeks. In Action a poem or song about “baby’s shoes” will cause a woman to dissolve in tears. In real life, if the stork whispers to a woman that In* is going to give her an occasion for buying a baby’s shoe, she Is mad enough to bite nails in two. The hooks say a great deal about the “children’s hour," a period at twi light when the children climb on mother's or father's knee and listen to fairy stories. In real life, if father is a farmer, he is engaged at this poetic period in feeding the hogs and mother is doing the milking Or. if they live in town, he is hanging to a car strap and she is running to the delicatessen. In the books the children gather at mother’s knee for their good-night prayers. In the days when every mother believed in having her chil dren pray, there were so many chil dren in the family that they couldn’t have gathered around her knee unless her limbs wars built like those of an extension tabla.
