1H13 spring weather tills week lias
darted a whole lot of peojilo out or
flown to tliolr country houses, and many
(that were closed on tho Mntn' tlno be
Icauso of tlio lntonso cold and lack of coal
faro opened Up. Then, too, sprint? makes
one think of out-doors affairs, of garden
i fetes, carnivals, horso shows and such
-things that nro yearly gotten up for
favreot charity.
On Saturday 01 una wceK airs. itoDeri
nnnlels 1ms. nsked a number of fi lends
fcifor a tea and a sale of the Mountain Arta
e.nd Crafts at ner nomo in iiosomom, irom
J until half artcr B o'clock- T,'o tea li
to be given under tlio auspices or tno Phil
adelphia Auxiliary of tho Southern Indus
trial Association.
You know these mountain arts and
crafts conslit of the most wonderful bas
kets and rugs and bedspreads made of
patchyvork. They nro the most beautiful
things- All tho brides-to-be nro crazy
about them for their trousseaux.
Mrs. V. Waring Wilson, Mrs. Cyrus S.
Radford und Mrs. I'axson Dccter will pre
aide at the tea tables, nnd thero are a
number of patronesses, so there Is Httlo
doubt that, the sale will bo a success.
1EON DOWNING Is homo on u fur
i lough after more than six months
ateadlly at sea. And wasn't It dandy to
think that his furlough came Just the
week of the Mask and Wig. nnd thero ho
was on Monday night, everybody greeting
him and banging him on the back.
"Why, there's old Leon!" every one was
saying, and from tho time he Was first
spied I believe ho shared the night's at
tention with tho actors themselves. Ho
looks awfully well. Somehow it makes
you proud to know these men who were
among the first to answer the country's
call, doesn't It?
THOUGH the rrews of Doctor Hodge,
Doctor Dlllard and Miss Stnmbajigh is
reassuring, their families cannot help
feeling nnxlous.
Indeed, every ono is anxious now; for
proud though wo are to know that our
nun were offered and accepted by the
French we dread the first news of casual
ties. Base hospital No. 10, to which Dr.
Edward Hodgo and Dr. Harry Dlllard
are attached, was tho first base hospital
unit to leavo Philadelphia after war was de
clared by tho United States. And those twenty-five
doctors, most of whom we all know
well, and their assistants and nurses and
orderlies have been In the thick of It all
for nearly a year, though- wo have not
been Just sure of where the hospital is.
Xow we know It Is near the present battle
front, and our hearts go up In prayer for
our "bravo men and true" who are work
ing day and night to save the shattered
lives of the men, whether French, British
or American. Thank God the dispatches
say the wounds are only slight and that
Doctor Hodge will soon bo back on duty.
The reports say that Miss Stambaugh's
wounds were slight, too. Slight or not.
the anxiety is great for those of us who
cannot bo there to see Just how things
are.
And meanwhile our men are marching
on to the battlefront 100,000 strong, fresh,
brave, fine American men. I'll warrant
there are few of us who can think of this
and keep down the lump that rises in tho
throat.
Ood bless them! Clod bless them!

Hunting a Husband
By MARY DOUGLAS
IComrlaM)
CHAPTER XXIX
The Bitter Decision
THIS nolo come this morning:
"Dear I must seo you. Can It ho to
night? Wire me. JIM."
When 1 raw Jim I was startled. Ills
face was drawn, haggard, Ho looked nt me
out of sunken eyes. I felt so badly that I
could only sny. "My dear, my dear.'"
Jim looked at me with the pathetic ex
pression that n beaten dog gives its master.
"Sara, ou know nil," he Kuld.
1 nodded
"I have been weak before. But you nro
strong. I know you will help mo. Wlien I
first met you I saw that hidden strength.
With ou 1 felt I could conquer "
"Jim." I said softly, "It cannot be."
'Hut, Sarah," he said, gripping my hands,
"I thought you loved mr."
"I do," I said again, very low.
"if you love me you cannot leave mo
now. This ls the time I need ynu.
"I will try to help you, Jim. But I .cannot
marry you."
"Then you are ruining me. You on whom
I have depehded. You have deserted me
Marry mo and I will give up drhiKlng. 1
swear I will!"
"But how often havo you Bvvorn before 7"
I asked.
"I did pot have you then, Sara. Ynu can
save me If you will" Ills voice with that
wonderful tlmbro was almost too hard to
resist.
"Don't make me go nil through It. Jim,"
I said. "It Is not you alone. I would marry
you If there was only you to think of But
It ls moro than that. It Is those that conio
nfter ub the children "
Jim rose. He looktd at me onco with a
tired look. He turned aside his head.
"Can't we part friends?" 1 asked. He said
nothing. When I looked up the room was
empty. 1 heard tho click of the door as it
closed after him. I had only one longing
to rush after him To cry. "Nothing matters
but our love.'1 To hear again that deep
beautiful voice. To see the look In those
dear eyes.
But I nm nlone. 1 have done wnat 1
thought right. But oh, how hard, how bitter.
I looked around at the room, it looked old,
dingy, pretentious. 1 felt I could not stand
It nor the four walls that shut me in
I opened the door softly. I walked swiftly
up the dark stieet. I walked so fast that
soon I had outstripped the last house.
I am returned now. I nm peaceful. Whether
It ls ptacc or only the numbing of my feel
