MY MARRIED LIFE
By ADELE GARRISON
How the Party Broke Up With a Startling Scene
TpilANK, we mutt bo home." I.lttl Mrs.
X Lester stood before her huabnntl, her
face nnslous, her voice KtMlnrd. 1 know
thst her nnilcty about leaving; htr baby
homo hat) reached a point where nhe could
no longer hide It.
"Oo home!" DIeliy's voice hrolte In, ntt
srleyed, tontstind. "To think anybody
houlil siuritest such a thlrtrr nt n pnrty of
mine. I'm surprlaetl at you, Daisy."
We were all seated In tha living room
nun In, Hnrry and I.llllan Underwood, I'rntiU
anil Daisy. Dicky and I. l'Vom every wlnt
of view eo one, our llttla chaniiff dlatt sup
per hnd been n decided sticcrss, That ox
ceirllon concerned only myself, however.
It was Harry t'nderwood's unplensmit litr
slstence In forclnif his presence upon me.
The sandwiches wero all eaten, and the
charing dish wns scraped clean of the rah
bit, rilthour.li I wotidcrod how they could
possibly tnt the stuff. The Ijerr nnd ulo
bottles, with which Dicky had liberally
slocked tho tables, were empty, and tho
whole supper had been one continual cross
fire of liiiiuliliiK and J'ftlnic.
"You will surely wait for some coffee and
cordials. Katie Is coming with them now "
I knew that 1 must second Dicky's
words. I felt guilty, however. In tint'iur
Mrs, Iestcr to stay, even though with my
tnexperletico with babies, 1 thought sho was
foolishly anxious.
"Oh, Mrs. (Iralmm. I don't believe I can
wait for anything. I nm getting no nerv
ous, 1 know It's awfut to be so silly, but
1 Just can't help It."
"Dahyl" Her husband's voice wan stern;
his faco looked angry, "Do stop that non
sense. We are certainly not going home
now."
Ills wife seemed to shrink Into herself.
Her pretty fare, wllh Us worried look, was
like that of a little girl grieving over a
doll. I felt a sudden desire to comfort her.
MltS. I.MSTICII'H KKAHB.
"I think oti arc worrying yourself tin
necenrlly. Mrs. Lester." I enld In an un
dertone. We were sitting next ench other,
and I could speak tn her without her hu
band overhearing. "When you telephoned
tho maid an hour ago, the baby was all
right, warn't It?"
"Yes. I know,'" she returned dejectedly.
"Hut I have heard such drendful things
nbout maids neglecting babies left In their
rare. Htliipose she should leave her nlonn
In the apartment, and something should
catch fire nnd"
"Don't Imnglne such horrible things." I
raid slmrply. "If you have had your maid
n year you either ought to be able to trust
her or you tiliould discharge her. Hut I
think you Imvo heard exaggerated stories.
Now. for Instance, In the apartment ncrosn
the hall there Is it,mald who takes devoted
enre of a baby. T do not know who the
pooplo are, but the mother Is out nearly
every nfternnon, nnd tho maid Is really
mont pnlnstnklng In her rare,"
"Oh, I know, I know; but suppose the
baby should be taken III suddenly. The
ma d would never know what to do."
"Would you, I wonder?" I did not speak
tho words aloud, but they flashed Into my1
mind. She nppenred such a child-mother,
this pretty little woman.
"See hero, Daley!" I.llllan Onle Joined
our group, coffee cup In hand, "Drink your
coffee nnd your cordial, Then, pretty eoon,
If you feel you renlly must go, I'll gather
up Harry and start for home. Then you
can mako Krank go."
"You nro awfully good, I.llllan." Mrs.
Lester looked gratefully up at the older
woman. "1 know I am as silly ns 1 can
be, but you can't know how I nm Imagining
every dreadful thing In tho calendar."
"I know all nbout It," Mrs. Underwood
returned shortly, nlmot curtly, and wnlked
away toward tho group of men nt the other
side of the npnrtment.
"I never know that ehe ever hnd a
child." Mrs. Lester's eyes wero wide with
amazement ns they met mine.
"Neither did I." Purposely I made my
tono noncommittal. Krom the look In I.ll
llan Oulo's eyes when Mrs. Lester told us
In my room of the way the baby looked
nsleep, I knew thut some tlmo nhe must
liuvo held a hahy of her own In her arms.
Hut I dotest gossip, no matter how kind
ly, If, Indeed, gossip can ever bo termed
kindly. I could not discuss Mra Under,
wood's affairs with nny one, especially
when she waa n guest of mine.
"Hut sho must hnvo had a baby some
time," persisted llttla Mrs. Leeter. Her
anxiety about her own baby appeared to he
forgotten for tho momont. "It must have

I looked around the room. How I wished
some one would Interrupt our talk. I could
not listen to Mrs. Lester's prattle without
answering her, and I did not wlah to ex

As If Bnattcrltig my unspoken wlah. Henry
I'nderwood rose and came toward me
"Were you look.ng for me?" he queried
audaciously.
I hd a sudden helpless, angry feeling
that this man had been covertly wntchlng

had Interrupted us, for his presence would
elTeclu.tUy stop Mrs. Lester's surmises con

"Indeed 1 was not looking fof; you." 1
returned spiritedly. "Uut I am glad you are

"(if course, that's a terr.bly hard tnk,"
he began, smiling mischievously at Mrs

Hut he never finished his sentence. A
loud, prolonged ringing of the doorbell
startled us all. It was tho sort of ring one
always associates with an urgent summon
of some soft.
"Oh! my bsby! 1 know something's hap

Mrs. Lester's word rang high nnd shrill.

How ARMOUR Makes Your
Food Supply Certain!
RMOUR Service to consumers is many sided.
of top quality at the source of supply, skilled preparation evolved from
a half century's experience, scientific utilization of by-products to keep prices at
levels these are all of highest importance to you in your daily living. Yet, far from
service that Armour gives you is a steady and continuous supply of the world's best.
And thla is made possible through Armour's great
Bystem of Refrigerator Cars as vital to your wel
fare as the refrigerator that keeps foods fresh in your
own home.
Think what this means. Suppose Armour were
today in the position of the coal-mine operators and
there were no suitable cars available.. Your table
would be radically changed! the staples which a life
time of use has brought you to regard asnecessrt'es
of life would be cut off,
'
In a twinkling, yoa would be back to tha days
of your grand father forced to live upon such foods
as your awn community might be able to produce.
II you lived in a great city, you would even face
famine, for obviously no cattle could be raited there.
And the prices you would have to pay!
If you will only stop to consider It, you will
realize how fortunate it is for you that the late
Philip D. Armour, perfected the traveling 're
frigerator. For, It means that so long as conditions warrant
Armour maintaining a supply of traveling refrigera
tors nothing short of a complete tie-up of the rail
roads themselves, can ever stop the deliver' of your

foods to you. And it means, further, that no car
shortage can ever raise the price of meat that
prices are solely dependent on the Law of Natural
Supply and National Demand.
Tho user of meats and meat products, or -of fish,
fruits, vegetables and other foods scientifically marketed
by Armour, cannot help but be reminded three times
each day, who It was made such variety In foods
possible everywhere and in every season.
And with this constant reminder, there must
logically grow up in the mind of every thoughtful
householder, a desire to make it possible for
Armour to render still greater service.
More and more, as one grasps the true inward
ness of the Armour policy, does it become appar
ent that this wonderul organization is virtually a
public institution and the national bulwark of
safety in quality, price, value -and assured delivery
of foods,
Thus, you .will understand that when you de

best you can possibly obtain today,, but you also
are lending your influence to the maintenance of
fair prices and values for the future.
