"Xkeir Married Life Copyright by International News Service. * WARREN ACTUALLY AGREES TO HELEN'S PLAN TO GIVE A DANCING PARTY "Bat, Warren, I really think we ought to do something; we have en joyed other people's hospitality for so long, we really ought to return it in some way, dear." Helen was seated in one of the chairs at the little card table In the center of the room, and she looked up at Warren as she spoke. Mr. and Mrs. Stevens were coming In to play cards, and Helen had taken the opportunity before the.v arrived to speak to War- j ren about entertaining In some way during the winter. "I don't see that we have accepted so much from people," said Warren, with his customary combativeness. "AVe have had dinner a couple of times with people, and we have returned It. 1 don't remember anything else of any importance." "Not the Stevens' big affair and Mrs. Dalton's reception, and the theater party that Bob and Louise had " "Bob and Louise are in the family," interrupted Warren. "I don't see why you always want to accept these in- j vitations, if you feel that you have] to have an uncomfortable affair like [ that yourself. I'll never forget that crush at Mrs. Dalton's. Not for me, ■ that kind of thing." Helen laughed at the remembrance | of Warren that night. "Well, you see, she invited too many j people for the size of her house." "I should say she did!" "But that doesn't take away from | the fact that she did entertain, dear." "Well, what is It that you want me to say? Hurry up! Here 1 am— spring it on me." "Warren, don't be ridiculous. I was simply asking your opinion about en tertaining." "And 1 gave it to you; now is it all settled?" "Oh, Warren, you are dreadful to night. It. isn't settled, because we realty must do something this winter." i "All right." finally after a short si lence. "I'll leave it to you, only don't drag me in on it." "Rut, dear, you'll have to be here." "Why don't you give an afternoon affair?" "And leave out all the men? ' "Sure. I can patch up things with them any time." Helen sat and thought for a few moments. Warren was in a good mood, and, although it was a splendid | opportunity for her, still she hated to take advantage of it. She really could i give an afternoon affair, and. if War-1 ren wanted it that way, why not? She glanced over at Warren, smoking com- | fortably. After all she had no right ! to make him uncomfortable. Secretly i she had longed to give a dance, but Ashe dreaded to broach the subject for TO>ar of what Warren would say. War • ren knocked the ashes off his cigar and looked at her expectantly. "Well," he said, slowly, "what have you got up your sleeve now? Some thing, I'll warrant." Helen Snfftcests Having a Dance at Home "I'm afraid to tell you what It is," said Helen, impulsively. "Afraid? That's something new, isn't it? Come on, now, I'm anxious." "Well, you remember how much you are enjoying the dancing class, dear? Well, T thought perhaps we might have a dance. We could hire a victrola or borrow Louise's, and we might make it very informal, some- 1 thing you would like, and," Helen stopped for breath and to see the effect of her statement on Warren. He was actually not angry. "Warren, aren't you angry? I was afraid you would be furious at' such a suggestion. But you know, dear, you don't have to even think of it If you don't want to —it was ust an idea of mine." "I don't, think it's such a bad idea," said Warren, after a few minutes. "If you're bound to entertain we might as well do it that way as any other." "What's the matter? Are you so surprised? Perhaps you don't think T can dance well enough." "Warren, you know It wasn't that. A SIGHT WITH ERUPTIONJ HEAD Broke Out With Pimples. Hair Came Out in Spots. Itching and Burn ing. No Rest. Used Cuticura Soap and Ointment. Got Well. R. *. D. No. 2.

Why, dear. l I never thought you'd be willing, and it will be such fun." "When shall we have it —around the holiday time?" "I think that would be wise." "Well, are you going to send out Invitations or what?" Helen could not believe her ears. "What do you think, dear? I think wo ought to have it informal; it will I be more fun that way. Oh, there's the ] bell. Will you answer It? Nora has gone out." A moment later Warren had ad mitted the Stevenses. Helen took Mrs. .Stevens into her room to take off her things. Her mind was on the subject of the dance, however, and she looked rather abstracted. Mrs. Stevens, fluf fing up her hair at the glass, looked at her smilingly. "What's the matter? Got some thing on your mind?" Helen laughed. She wondered If Warren would mind if she mentioned it to Mrs. Stevens. She decided to watt, and laughed off the remark. "1 have a lot on my mind," she ex plained as they went out Into the liv ing room. "Winifred is going to pose in those tableaux this week, and that has to be thought of. Did you know that little Joan Richards is going to pose as the Blue Boy?" "I had heard she was. Mrs. Dalton was saying something about it. By the way, are you coming out to the dancing class to-morrow night? How do you like the fox trot?" Warren Grins at the Mere Suggestion. Helen looked at Warren across the table and smiled. Warren was grin ning broadly. "Now, what does this mean? You two have something between you. Let us in on it," said Mr. Stevens. "I told Helen I thought she had something on her mind," said Mrs. 'Stevens, proud of her guess. "There is no secret about it," said Warren finally, as he shuffled the cards. "Helen and I are thinking of giving an Informal dance around the holidays. What do you think about it?" "Bully," said Mr. Stevens. "Just wonderful," said Mrs. Stevens, properly enthusiastic. "My dear, I never heard of anything so nice. Whatever made you think of It?" "Well, we wanted to do something, and I had thought of this for some • time. It will be fun, don't you think ?" I "Fun—l should say so; do have a j dance." ; "We will," .explained Warren. > "Helen thought that would be fun. 'We'll have to brush up a little before i then, eh, Stevens?" "You'll be the first people in our crowd to give a dance." said Mrs. Stevens; "everybody will be crazy about it." "Yes, I'm so excited about it T don't see how I'm going to keep my mind on a bridge game," said Mrs. Stevens. "Oh, here's a little proposal, Ste vens, to help you keep your mind on the game," said Warren promptly. "I meant to mention it the last time we played, but it slipped my mind. How about the losers standing for a din ner and the theater some time within the next six weeks?" "I'm game, old man," agreed Mr. Stevens. t "We'll have to put a time limit on it; let's say Christmas Eve." | "Oh, no. Warren, not Christmas I Eve. Remember Winifred is here, and she will want to hang tip her stocking. We must be home that | night, dear." "Of course you must." said Mrs. Stevens, "let's say the day after Christ mas." "The day after Christmas it is," said Warren. "Believe me, you peo { pie will have to play up some If you want to win that bet. Mrs. Stevens and I are 'way ahead." Helen smiled encouragingly across the table. "Never mind, we're the best dancers," she announced proudly. "Not while I'm around," put in Warren; "bid on your hand." , _ | Be Kind to Plants; They Are Nervous in Opinion of Physicist New York, Dec. 9.—Except in struc ture, plants are much like human be ings, Dr. Jagades Chuder Bose, Hindu physicist of the Presidency College, Calcutta, informed an audience yester day in the conservatory of Columbia University. They are distressingly nervous, the least annoyance setting them on edge. Cold weather Is a nuisance to them, hot weather an affliction, and they dread electric shocks like a man con demned to the chair. In uncongenial company they become easily bored nnd droop with weariness, and when they can't stand it. any longer they have convulsions and die in excruci ating pain. On the other hand they reciprocate love and declare their happiness to [those In real sympathy with them. I Dr. BoSe said he had learned these things and many more about plants ! by means of a machine with a "frae- Itlonless" needle which he has Invented. The machine enables him to feel the | pulse throbs of plants and thus dla,?- nos# their condition.
