XfcfcMen Their Married Life By MABEL HERBERT URNER "Here's one for you." Warren tossed a letter across the breakfast table. "Oh, it's from Louise!" joyfully. Helen started to run a fork under the flap. It was the first letter she had received from Louise since her marriage. For a moment she held it unopened, trying to conjecture what it might contain. In one way its thickness was alarming. If, after all, Louise should not be happy. If Bob— "Well, what's she got to say?" as Warren tore open another envelope. "I haven't opened it yet, I" But already JVarren was absorbed in his letter. Almost retaotantly Helen ran the fork through the thick white envel ope. There were six pages in Louise's fine, regular hand. "Dear Helen: "I cannot realize that wo have l»een married over two weeks—sixteen days! And we're still at the Walton. We're so comfortable here that we've stayed on from day to day. Neither of us feels in the mood for traveling. There's enough that is new and won derful in just being together. "From New York to Philadelphia isn't much of a wedding trip, but we're together—that's all that mat ters. Helen, I'm so happy that it frightens me! Can it last? Oh, I can't bear to think that there will be any "letting down"—and yet I suppose there must be! "Just now it seems Impossible that the wonder of it should ever wear off—that we should ever grow com monplace and humdrum, as do most married people. I can't conceive of the time when I will not be thrilled by his slightest touch. O, I want to hold on to these hours! I want to be always just his bride! But there—l didn't intend to inflict you with an effusive emotional letter. "I want to tell you about our i rooms here. We have the bridal suite, and It must be fearfully ex pensive, but Bob will not hear of our making any change. He had wired ahead and had the rooms filled with flowers the day we ar rived. It was foolish, of course, for it stamped us as bride and groom. It was almost as though he WANTED everyone to know! "The first evening he ordered a special dinner served in our rooms. The table was laid by one of the long French windows in our draw ing room, where we could look out over the city. I felt that I was liv ing in a play. The room, with its Louis XV. furniture and silk shaded candelebra, seemed like a stage set ting. It was too beautiful to be quite real. "I wore the white lace gown I got so hurriedly at Ardmans. You re member you thought two hundred and fifty too much for it. Oh, my dear, it wasn't! Every woman wants pretty things on her bridal trip, and as I had time to get so few, I'm glad I got them good. "You see, I'm trying to write of the rooms and my clothes—rather than of Bob and of how madly I love him! It's all so wonderful, dear; so much more wonderful than I ever thought it would be! He is so dell» cately considerate and gentle! I'm beginning to realize all the fineness of his nature, that he had almost concealed by his gruff curtness. In every way Here there was a break, and the page was crumpled as though there MRS. WILLIAMS 7 LONG SICKNESS Yields To Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound.

Station '■ * '■ , T " ' " 1 v-V'*' FRIDAY EVENING HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MAY 29, 1914 had been a struggle for its possession. Then came a scrawl in Bob's large vertical hand. "I can't spare my wife another minute! She's been writing to you for half an hour—and that's quite long enough." Then again In Louise's hand: "You see, how he tyrannizes over me? Hereafter I shall write un flattering things about him so he'll have no desire to look over my shoulder. I'll finish this to-morrow. Bob says the taxi's waiting we're going for a long drive into the coun try." The next page was dated "Wednes day" : "Bob has gone out for some theater tickets. It's the first tfme that I've been really alone. And Helen there's something I want to ask you —something I couldn't ask anyone else. "You knout I first attracted Bob by my aloofness, by making him feel that he was never quite sure of me. At times I used that aloofness as a deliberate lure. I think every woman has done this; it's part of the game. A feigned coldness to the man she loves is a woman's most effectlv» en ticement. "But now that I'm his wife, to what degree must I still keep up this pre tense? That is what I want to know now. Can I let him see all the emo tional Intensity of my love? Or must I keep on pretending that I am just a little cold and reticent? Must I keep up the subterfuge of being pur sued ? "There are times in the last few days, when 1 have let myself go— just a little. I may have only imag ined It, but it seemed to me that Bob looked surprised. There might have been even a suggestion of withdrawal on his part. It was only momentary, of course, and so slight that I may have been wrong, yet it checked me instantly. "I am expressing this very badlv, but it is aU very subtle. Yet I feel sure you'll understand what I have written—and much that I haven't. Write me freely and tell me some thing of what you have learned in these four years of your married life. "Oh, I want to keep Bob always my lover—as he is now. And if to do this mea-ns that I must show my love always a little less than he shows his, that I must feign a constant eiusiveness—it will be hard, cruelly hard! Yet I will try! "LOUISE." "Well, what's she got to say? Let's hear it," demanded Warren, who had now finished his mail. "Oh, I can't read you this." "Why can't you?" Tin? Reason Why "Why, dear, it's—it's a very per sonal letter. I'm sure Louise wouldn't want me to. But they're very happy —and still at the Walton. They're so comfortable there, they're not go ing on for a while." "Fine! But let's hear the letter." "Dear, I tell you I can't! It wouldn't be fair to Louise." "The sentimental effusion of a bride, eh? Lot of maudlin rot! I'll bet It fairly oozes with gush! All right, you needn't read it. Guess we can survive without hearing it, eh Purr-Mew?" shying a crumpled en velope at Pussy Purr-Mew, who was regarding him with grave interest. "Louise couldn't gush If she wanted to," retorted Helen indignantly. "And she's not sentimental in the way you mean." "Huh, all women are alike. She'll probably have Bob surfeited before they've been married six months." Helen caught her breath. He was answering t'ie very question Louise had asked. "Dear, don't you think a man should WANT his wife to be affec tionate? If she loves him why shouldn't she show it?" "Well, no man wants to be eter nally slobbered over," brutally, as he rose from the table. "Wonder if I'll need an overcoat? If the tailor comes —give him that thin suit to press." When he had gone, Helen went back to the breakfast table and again read Louise's letter. All morning she pondered over it. "Oh, I want to keep Bob always my lover"—that phrase haunted her. Could any woman keep her husband a lover always? Certainly she had not. Then how could she ad-) vise Louise? When finally she sat down to write her, she had the feeling that anything she might say would be only words, that in this she was patheti cally unqualified to offer advice. "Louise dear: I think the lives of most v/omen are made up of pretenses and subterfuges to hold the love of some one'man— that's what we're all striving for. But not always in the same way. "Assumed coldness and eluslvenoss may be the ruse of one woman, while another impassioned ardor may be more effective. "I know Bob is much like Warren —but you and I are so different. I haven't your independence nor per haps your pride. I've never been able to assume aloofness with Warren. I I've always been demonstrative and emotional. I can't help it—l know it palls on him and I hate myself for |my weakness. Often he withdraws from my caresses, they irritate and annoy him, and yet his very with drawal makes me lavish them on him all the more. "Yes; I suppose all men do like to 'pursue.' It is the unattainable, the thing they are not always sure of, that appeals to them most. And if you have the courage to school yourself to a little coldness and reserve, if you | can hold Bob always in the attitude of the pursuer—it may keep him more the lover. "That Is what every women wants —to keep her husband a lover always. And yet, how dismally .most of us fail! I don't believe any woman ever had all the love she wanted, and she always feels that she might have had more if she had been 'different.' "Yet none of us can play a part for very long. Wo may keep up a pretense for awhile, but we always end by being—just ourselves. "HELEN." DON'T SQUEEZE BLACK HEADS-DISSOLVE THEM Squeezing and pinching out black heads make the pores large and cause irritation then too, after they have become hard you cannot get all of them out. Blackheads are causesd by accu mulations of dust and dirt and secre tions from the skin and there is only one safe and sure way and one that never falls to 'net rid of them—a simple way too—-that is to dissolve them. Just «ret from any drug store about two ounces of powdered neroxin—sprinkle a lit tle on a hot. wet sponge rub over the blackheads briskly for a few sec onds - wash oft and you'll be sur prised to see that every blackhead haa disappeared, and the skin will be loft sort and the pores in their natural con d.tlon—anyone troubled with these un sightly blemishes should try this simple method.—Advertisement. 11110 EMPRESS OF Mil SINKS [Oonton tinned from Page 10] Salvation Army Is Largely Represented on Ship's Passenger List By Associated Press Winnipeg, May 29. —The Salvation Army delegates to the London world's convention who were booked on the Empress of Ireland follow: Commissioner and Mrs. Rees, To ronto.
