MY MARRIED LIFE
By ADELE GARRISON
What Happened Before the Evening Game
n"1HEnnt fow what do you think ot your
J- kitchen crock?'
Dicky stepped back admiringly from the
dlnlilg table, where he had Just finished
arranging the flowers ho had bought In the
coarse brown Jar against which I had pro
tested to no avail.
To my housewifely mmd the Idea of a.
pleco of kitchen pottery ns n receptacle
for flowers was ridiculous, and I had felt
much Irritation at Dicky not only for put
ting aside my opinion with a careless tptlp,
nB If It wero of no Importance, but for per
sisting In carrying the unsightly thing Into
tho dining room nnd putting tho flowers
Into It
Hut ttB I looked-at tho yellow daffodils,
tho whlto narcissi nnd tho delicate ferns
rising out of the dark brown earthen Jar
I realized tho artistic sense that had led
Picky unerringly to select It- I'laced care
lessly within If. somo of tho blossoms stand
ing proudly upright, othors leaning lov
ingly over the side of tho dish, they looked
exactly as If they wcro rising from the
earth whoro thoy wore grown.
I lota flowers so muchf that the very
sight of them mellows me, no mntter how
upset f am. As I gniod at tho exquisite
blossoms I felt my Irritation at Dicky lonv
me. After nil, ho had been right about Up
Jar, and 1 could not bcllevo ho had men
to wound me.
1 flipped my hand Into his nrm. "They
arc lovely, Dicky." I said softly. "I Uiko It
all Imrk about tho Jar. It Is tho only thing
for thesn blossoms, Isn't It?"
"Of course." Dick replied laconically.
"Queor, how somo of tho cheapest, coarsest
pieces of pottery havo colorings which nro
a delight to the eye."
"Dinner nil -served," Unnouncod Kntle
from tho kitchen door. Then her eyes fell
upon tho table, whero Dicky had Jumbled
dlt-hes and nllvcr In a heap to inako room
for his nrratigcment of tho lowers, nnd
her fnco grew dark. with nngor.
I hastened to avert tho storm I knew
was browing.
"Never mind tho dishes, Katlo," I said
soothingly. "Mr. fJraham put them to one
sldn when ho arranged tho flowors. o
will, put them nil back again ourselves.
Hrltig on tho dinner."
Katlo departed, grumbling under her
breath, but I nlTected not to hoAr her. I
rearranged tho dishes nnd silver, and, when
sho brought In tho oysters, sho waa sorone
again.

ellce of Katie's cream pie, he held out a
half dollar to her, 'That's In recognition
of n mighty good dinner."
"Tank you," rejoined Kntle. "I no care
If you put dishes on the floor next time."
Dicky frowned slightly as he left the
room. '
'Too fresh, my dear, that girl," ha com
mented. "Can't you tone her down ft
llttlof"
"I felt my old Irritation nt Dicky's In
conslntcney rising wllhln me. When bo
had found that Katie, whom t had engaged
an cook, waa tho girl who hod formerly
dono tha housework In tho bachelor apart
ment which ho had shared with three other
artists, ho had been delighted.
".Vow I'll have tho chanco to finish that
painting of Poland for which sho was pos
ing when sho disappeared," ho had said to
mo, and ndded: "For heaven's sake. Madge,
keep. her. I'ut up with anything from her
until after 1 finish that painting."
I retnembered tho words ns If ho Ivfid Just
spoken them- The memory of them tinged
my speech as I replied!
"You siiroly do not suppose I Ilka her
manner any better than you do? But you
told ma to put up with nnythlng from her.
so that sho would stay until after you bad
finished that painting for which sho was
posing. Thoro Is no surer way of making
her angry than to try to 'tone her down,'
as you express It. Rho Is positively Irre
pressible, and. to do tho girl Justice t be
lieve It Is not freshness, but Ignorance and
high spirits."
I suppose no man likes to bo put In the
wrong, and Dicky Is a perfectly normal
man. Ko I was not surprised when ho took
rofugo In a shaft of Irony.
"Really, this lecture Is extraordinarily
Interesting. If there Is any moro coming
you ought to charge a fio."
I thanked my stars for Kntle'a entranco
nt that moment with tho 'coffee, t could
not havo trusted my voice to answer Dicky,
and Katlo'fl presence, of course, solved the
difficulty.
"I am afraid you will have to excusn
me now," I said quietly nfter hastily drink
ing my coffee. "1 must get thoso sand
wiches out of the way as early as possible.
Can I do anything for you? You might as
well havo a comfortablo time with your
papers beforo Katlo has to clear up the
living room."
........,- - j. tnr me, only to cut up
that cheese Katie bought last night Into
mail Pieces. Then when you ge j-our table
fixed Up 111 come out and put a I th things
for the rarebit on my end of ha table. I
understand they don't rarebit In our most
recherche circle nny more, tha poor thing
having degenerated Into being served on the
stage as typifying our middle class's enler
tMnments, but I'vo never gotten over my
fwiS for them, while Lit and Lester are
perfect fiends. Harry rather looks askance
at them, Isn't nulla sure he Isn't being corn
monplaca by Indulging, but ho likes them
just the same."
1 walked Into the living room, nnd I
turned to Katlo ,-.,,. .i
"I'll help you clear tho table, Katie, ana
then you may bring me tho sandwich bread
and nil tho things I asked you to get last
night. I'll make tho sandwiches right hero.
Hrlng me the can-opener nnd a sharp knife.
Then you may do tho dishes,"
The tablo was soon spread with the
things. I bad opened two or three of the
cans and put tho contents Into d.shcs when
I heard the doorbell ring. Dicky went to
tho door, nnd f heard Mlllnn flnlc's high
voice nnd her husband's deeper tones.
1 looked nt the clock. It waa only half
past 3 In tho afternoon. Surely they had
not como to stay through the ovenlng nt

or child, no matter their station in life, who want to'get the very biggest
dollar's worth for every hundred pennies of price.
Leadership counts very largely when the cause is good and is sup
ported by wide-spread appreciation; and we're doing our very uttermost
to keep down the cost of living, in every city and town, in the territory
we cover. The modest income or hard-earned weqkly wage is carelessly
handled, even now, if it doesn't cover the necessities of ordinary com
fortable living and leave a snug something for the bank IF you have
the opportunity of dealing regularly at a Childs Store.
Thousands and thousands of families, in four States, are depending
on us for this very thing; and they f re getting high-grade groceries at
lowest possible cost. They've come to know the satisfaction of trading
on sure.ground, for they realize what "QUALITY,. QUANTITY AND
PRICE" mean to the weekly expense account, and they've learned to
improve the golden moment of opportunity. Now, this "is not "all talk
and no cider." It's the absolute truth.
You can cut great slices out of the grocery bill with care and good
management, for carelessness is oftentimes the most costly item; and if
you have a tendency, like an oyster, to stick fast to the particular spot
in which you happen to be, you'll find it interestingly 'profitable to study
the obvious possibilities of "QUALITY, QUANTITY AND PRICE."
Tlie highways and byways of grocery buying are very intricate ; but there's
a street called STRAIGHT, and if you fpllow along you're sure to come
to a Childs Store "Where Your Money Goes the Farthest" and
where exacting taste and every-day prudent economy demand and gel
ABSOLUTE SATISFACTION. .
