MY MARRIED LIFE
By Adele dAnmsoN
What DkUy Said Aboni Madge's "Inconvenient" Engagement
r' 18 not often that I nave what women
call "a good cry." Hut when I remem
bered that my ennsitcment to meet Mrs.
Smith was the rmmo day that Dicky had
planned such a delightful jaunt to the
country, I shed angry tears.
To make matters worse, whan Dicky pro
posed the trip I hnd forgotten Ihrt eimare
menl for the moment. 1 had let him go tin
mAklng plans, nnd I had acquiesced In them
Joyfully.
Now ho had gono for some cigars, nnd,
when hs returned I must spoil all his
pleasure.
Knowing Dicky's explosive temper and
his perslntcnco when tin had set Ills heart
upon nnythlng, f dreadf-d ills return nnd tho
moment when I tnlmt tell lilm that I could
not go, and, worst of all, my renson for not
going. I knnw that he would consider It no
reaiion nt all, disapproving. as he did ot tho
whole affair of tho history class lemlnrslitp,
which Airs, fmtlth wished to dl.icuss with
mo.
He noticed my red eyes nnd wothegono
faco tho moment ha enmo In with tho
cigars.
"What's tho matter, now 7" lis queried.
His tons sounded n trlflo Impatient. "I
thought I hnd ohnsed nway nil your blues,
and that yoU woro all randy for n good tlmo
tomorrow,"
"That's tho troubls, Dicky, I can't go
tomorrow,
"Can't go tomorrow! What do you
mean 7"
"Why, when you were talking about your
pinna, I forgot that I had mndo nn engage
ment to meot Mrs. Smith nt 3 o'clock to
morrow afternoon."
"Who In thuntlor Is Mrn, Smith?"
"Mrs. Holen llrnlncrd Hmltb," I explained
painstakingly. "Iho secretary of tho Lotus
Study Club, tho woninn who wants mo to
tnko the leadership of tho club's hlatory
ClABfl '
DIclty sprang tn his feet with an r-x-clnmatlon
that conslfined Innocent Mrs.
Smith to perdition.
"I knew It." ho said, raising his hnnd
high above his head, a way he had when
nngry. "I know If you began thnt stunt
of going out washing for pin money thcro d
bo something llko this every tlmo wo planned
nny pleasuro trip togcthor."
laAtKDisniKa THism uiiains
'dolnc out washing 1" I exclaimed.
"What on enrth do you mean?"
"I'd llko to know what olno jt la," ho re
turned sardonically. "Tho Janitor's wlfo
goeH to tho linmt'S of theso clubwomen nnd
wanhen tholr clothes. My wlfo goes to tholr
club and Inunilcrn her brnlns with a courso
of lectures In history. What difference does
it mean? You both are earning money to
help your husbands out. And tho tlmo ot
nolthor of you Is your own, You both nro
nt tho beck nnd call of other womon. A
nice stnto of affairs for mo, I must uny."
"You know you nro snylng what Is tin
truo, Dicky," I said patiently. "1 explained
to ynu fully when wo discussed this that
I wna not trvlngto uild to your Income
You havo more than enough for our every
wlnh, Hut I felt that If I acceded to your
wish und kept a mold for tho housework.
1 must earn tho equivalent of tho extra
cxpenMo In some way. I do not want to bo
n parnalto wlfo, Dicky, doing work neither
Innldo tho houso nor out."
"I'lfcnso spnro mo any moro lectures on
that feubject." Dicky's tono cut llko a,
knife. "I told you onco that I would glvo
In to you about thin, nnd I am going tn
keup my word, llut why in creation can't
you telephono this wonlan nnd tell her you
vflll havo to change tho day of your en
gagement to meet her?"
"Oh, Dicky, 1 couldn't do that. It Is a
business cngngoment. You ought to know
I couldn't chdnge that appointment, only
for tho gravost reasons.''
"Fiddle-ticks I I'll bet sho'Il change It
fast enough If she happens to think o nny
llttlo thing llko getting her hair dressed
or her rtails manicured, that sho wants to
do."
"How absurd 1 Mrs. Bmith Is a well
known club woman. I havo heard of her
froqucntly. Bho Is a woman of polso nnd
experience. I wouldn't havo her think I
could chango an nppolntmont lightly for
anything, Hlio would bo Justlflod in think
ing I might not always kocp my ap
pointments with tho history clans."
"That wouldn't grlevo mo any," Dicky
muttored. "Soo here, I've got It. I'll call
this precious Smithy up, though tho Lord
knows I hnto to da It, nnd toll hor you're
sick. You are, too nick ot having to keep
that appolntmont. I know you,"
"I am so sorry, Dicky." I tried to smllo
as I spoko, "liut I cannot breuk this ap
pointment. Why can't wo go Wednesday
Instead of tomorrow?"
"for two very good reasons." Dicky's
tana was extremely unpleasant. "In tho
first place, thero'U huver bo such good tuck
as to havo moro than two January days
like this. Tha predictions sny warm to
morrow, followed by n drop In tomporaturo.
In tho eecond place I havo a very Important
appolntmont with FUlmoro, tho art editor
of Sumter's Magazine, on Wednesday,"
"Oh I" I could not conceal the rcstntmont
I felt at this injustice. "You expect mo to
break a business engagement when you
would not do so."
"My dear girl" Dicky's voice was pa.
tronlslng, as If ha were trying I to explain
things to a child "considering that FUlmoro

considering art appointment with him a

Smith."
"The prlnelpla of the thing is lbs same."
t insisted stanchly.
"Oh; you and your principles," snarled
Dicky, "I'm getting eternally tired of
hearing about them. Anybody would think
to hfjif yoil Hint you had tt patent on all
tha virtue nnd rlghteotla dialing In tlie
world. Como out of it There's somebody
in the world besides yourself, nnd your
little two-by-four rules of right and wrong,
although you'll nover nnd It out."
He flung Into his room, nnd csmn out
again wllh his hat, overcoat nnd stick.
"Don't bother to alt tip for me," ho said
formally. "I'm going for a long walk, and
I may bo late."
, I tytt quietly, ns ho had left me, for a
long time. I could not feel that I had done
wrong, and yet thing-, could not havo
turned out more miserably It I had delib
erately disregarded the right course.
Tho telephono bell rang loudly. As I
answered It Mrs. Smith's clear, vibrant
voice carno lo my oars.
"Mrs. OrahamT t wonder If It will In

"Any .other day will suit ma as well!" I

"How sweet of you. What day?"
"I will telephone you. What Is your

"Chelsea 8769, Ynu nrs nuro this change

"Perfectly sure, flood -by."
I hung lip tho receiver with a. feollng of

birthday this year. Cllve her a danco nt
tho club and n present that will make her
'sit up and lako notice.' I'll foot tho bill,"
It was a cuo for mo to "go tho limit."
I modo arrangements for a dinner-dance
wllh all tho nlccat kind of fixture", and
then mother and I put our heads together
to find a gift that would ,mako Cicely "open
her eyes" even wider than they nro pat-
u rally.
Since Cicely Isn't keen about Jewelry,
nnd tho wlehcd-for set of white fox is to
bo her Christmas present, wo ngreed that
a handsome frock would be tho thing that
would plcnao her most,
Dad decided that It should bo of velvet
trimmed wllh fur. to mnko (t real expen
sive, ns ho couldn't think of anything moro
luxurious.
I took Mrs. Mnthon with rno to ono ot
tho shops which handles only Imported
models, telling her to bo on tho "look-out"
for something really unusual. Hoth of us
lilted n model ot midnight blue chiffon
volvot trimmed with ermine, Mrs. Int!ion
was confident that sho could copy It exactly,
so wo bought tho materials.
Fortunately, Cicely and I are of exactly
tho same measurements, so that Mrs. Ma
than could fit the frock on me.
FIrat, sho mndo a snugly fitting bodice
lining of flesh-colored eatln. I sewed nn
edging ot Vnl taco about the armholcs and
tho neckllno and the hooks and eyes In
place while she worked on tbo velvet bodice.
When sho had basted the sections together
nho fitted it rather tightly. Then Alio cut
out the circular yoko end applied It to tho
bodlco with a narrow velvet cording about
the edges.
Tho skirt Is full, but not clumsy, like
many of the newest models, and is Bnlhsred
nt th wnlsttlne ncross the back and sides.
The front is n panel which 1 extended up
Into the bodice.
Mrs, Mathon mads the sleeves long and
tight with cuffs that flare over the hands.
Cicely will love them, for they ore edged
with a narrow band of ermlns.
I covered n heavy cord with velvet for
Mrs. Mathon to use when Joining the bodice
lo the Skirt
The tufrler made a turned-down collar or
ermine, lining It with white satin, and
several dosens of flat buttons covered with
the fur. The collar Is detachable, to that
Cicely can wear It with other froclts It she
like.
Mrs. Mathon uaed Ihe buttons to forms
border about Iho hem of tho skirt and to
trim the front of the bodlco. Then she
added a girdle of black satin with tho ends
trimmed with fringe.
The original model and the copy are ns
tike as two peas. Cicely can't help raving
about such a birthday present.
When It was finished I showed It to Dad.
"It's a stunner, all right Couldn't bo hnnd.
somen" was his verdict Then 1 handed
htm tho bill, but Instead' of being staggered
by its size, he said: "Is that all tho dress
cost? I thought I'd have to dig down tn
my Jeans for a small fortune."
I've got to make sandwiches for tea.
Mother gavs Nora and Nelly a day off, and
I'm chief cook and bottle washer.

Practical Economy
Baking powders made from alum or
phosphate ;may be bought for a trifle less
than Royal Baking Powder, which is made
from cream of tartar, derived from grapes.
Alum powders are not only cheap, but
they differ greatly, in leavening power.
If a cheap baking powder is used for a
fine cake and the cake turns out a failure
there is a waste of costly materials worth
more than a whole can of the cheap bak
ing powder.
Royal Baking Powder produces the
finest food, and its use therefore, results in
an actual saving.
