OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN
THE STRUGGLES OF A WIFE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER XXXI
Copyright, 1916, Star Company
Myra Webb said nothing to Horace
About Perry Martin-s acceptance of
her story, nor of the advance in price
that he had suggested. She felt like
• maintaining a complete silence with
■'regard to her work since the illumi
nating conversation between her hus
band and herself. She was painfully
conscious of his lack of sympathy in
her literary efforts, of his tolerance of
them instead of his approval.
That her silence was a mistake she
soon perceived. For one morning at
the breakfast table Grace remarked
casually that now that one story had
been sold for such a good sum, she
supposed her mother would soon un
dertake to write another.
Horace glanced across the table at
his wife. "You have sold another
story?" ho asked quickly.
"Yes." she replied, "I have» —to the
Imperial Magazine—for $25 more
than for the first one they bought."
Grace looked from her father to her
mother, her face expressive of uneasi
ness.
"Have T made a bad break?" she
asked. "I took it for granted that
there were no secrets between you
two. I'm sorry, mother, if I have
mentioned that about which I should
have kept quiet."
"Nonsense!" her mother tried to
laugh, but no smile lighted Horace's
somber countenance.
After Grace had left the table to get
ready for school, the husband spoke
gravely.
"I am sorry, Myra," he remarked,
"that Grace should have told that
which you did not wish me to know. ;
I suppose the child took it for grant
ed, as she suggested, tiiat there were
no secrets between you and me."
Myra Has \o SWTOIS
"I have no secrets from you, Hor
ace," Myra protested. "I simply did
not talk about my work for the same
reason that makes you keep silent
with regards to yours."
"The cases are entirely different,"
Horace informed her.
This, mused his wife, was his one
unanswerable argument. Yet what
reply could she make to it? She
would not humble her pride to ex
plain to him that his attitude toward
her writing wounded her. No, she
could not change his way of thinking
—so why try? Instead she would talk
of something else.
"Grace was saying last night." she
began, "that you and 1 ought to in
vite some of our friends here to our
home. Perhaps were we to have
guests, we would be better for it."
"That must be as you think best,"
the husband said. "I leave all such
matters to you and Grace. Such :tf
fairs are entirely outside my prov
ince."
So the next dinner was planned
without his co-operation. Several of
his business- associates and their wives
were invited. A man was engaged
from a certain agency to help Lizzie
wait on the table. The napery, glass,
i liina and silver were perfect in their
way. The food was excellent: the
service good. The talk was spontan
eous and bright.
Hack of all these preparations were
the brains and executive ability of
Horace Webb's wife. Vet. as she
talked and drew out what was hest
her guests, she looked the unper-
Vtoirhed woman of the world.
Her husband seconded her conver
sational efforts, for he, too, was an i

SATURDAY EVENING,
I admirable talker. And to-night he j
was at his best.
So much did Horace Webb enjoy
this return to their former ways of j
J entertaining that, when he and his
wife were again alone, he proposed
; that it would be well If they "did this l
1 kind of thing often."
His mind felt clearer, he acknowl- ,
edged, for this evening away from
business thoughts and cares and he
had really enjoyed the exchange of
ideas with their friends. Now that ,
Myra was making a little more money j
why should she not get some pleasure .
out of it by repeating the success of j
to-night ?
"It will do you good, you know," j
he added.
She did not remind him that such j
affairs required much thought on her
part, time taken from her desk, yet
that it must be at that desk that she
must make money for entertaining.
"After this, scarcely a week passed
in which the Webbs did not have com
pany. The more they entertained,
the harder Myra must work. But she
did not intimate this to her husband
or child.
Tlioy Go Out Motv
, And as friends came to their home,
so the Webbs were invited to the
homes of these friends. It would
not do to decline the pleasant invita- j
tions that arrived so frequently. Nor
; would it be proper to go to any func- ,
lions without the costumes appropri
ate for such occasions. To be sure,
Horace gave little thought to this mat
ter, for he did not discuss his ward
! robe with his wife.
She was glad, however, to notice
| that he was better dressed than he
had been for the first few months aft
er his failure in business. FYom this
• fact she argued to herself that he
must be making a little more money,
she had imagined.
If so. he said nothing to her of the
improvement in his business. Per-1
, haps, she reflected, he would not do'
so before this improvement made it
possible for him to increase the house
keeping allowance. Until then she
must work on steadily to help him
keep the position to which he had
climbed on that tigurative ladder he
j and she had spoken of months ago.
Her first story appeared in the
May Imperial Magazine and was
much talked about. Editors of other
periodicals wrote to her asking her to
submit something to them. Two
weeks after the appearance of "Bitter
Waters" Horace broke his silence with
regard to her literary efforts.
"I saw Dakin on the subway to
j day," he remarked. "He had with
him a friend whom I had not met be
fore. He introduced him to me, add
ing that I was the husband of Myra
Webb—whose story In the current Im- j
perial he had undoubtedly read. The
stranger greeted me cordially and con
gratulated me on your success. He
spoke of the story as 'strong.' 'mas
terly.' By the way, I read it a few
: evenings ago myself. It is interest
' ing."
"Oh, Horace!" She caught her 1
breath with pleasure. "You like it?"
she asked eagerly.
"Yes," he acknowledged. "I liked 1
it. But he hesitated.
"But what ?" she demanded. "What ;
art! yon thinking of?"
"Only," he said slowly, "that it ;
makes a man feel a bit queer to be
introduced as the husband of his wife
instead of on His own merits.''

Profit in the Tractable
Goose and Her Offspring
It is rare that any fancier seeks to
originate a new variety of ducks.
Breeders are generally satisfied to con
tinue with one of the old-fashioned va
rieties that have been selected to meet
the requirements of their particular
market.
A decade ago the late William Cook
famed as the originator of all the Or
pington fowls, spent much time in
perfecting a new utility duck, one that
would compare favorably with the
Pekin as a layer, and with the Ayles
bury for weight. In the course of
his work he not only produced Buff
ducks, but a Blue variety, and both are
now largely bred. Mr. Cook attached
the name "Orpington" to these ducks,
after the name of his country place
in England.
Breeders are very enthusiastic over
their heavy-laving qualities and their
Leading Features in the
Breeding of Geese For
Feathers and Meat
Ease in Rearing Goslings,
Their Quick Growth and
Their Freedom From Di
sease
By M. I'. longfleld
Author and Practical Poultryman.
j The F.inden is the general utility
brood. Ganders arc good husbands
and protective fathers... Laying he
gins In February. Hatching claims
the gravest importance. Goslings are
thrifty and not menaced by disease.
Food needs are simple—plenty or
grass and water, plus corn. Feathers
add to value. Waterfronts desir
able hut not necessary.
Every fowl has its staunch advo
cate. Judging from the ratio reared
of various kinds, the goose stands
I third in popular estimation. In con
sideration of its intrinsic qualities, this
is surprising. Of all poultry, the
goose is hardiest. It runs the gamut
of temperature extremes in the tem
perate climate undisturbed. Where
as chickens, guineas and turkeys must,
jbe environed with watchful care lest
; disease assail. The gosling early
S achieves independence. Of all the
ills to which the former are heirs, it
claims no inheritance. Pip, gapes,
roup, cholera and their kind pass by
! the gosling. It is because it is a
genuine vegetarian? Provide the gos
-1 ling with water, a good range and a
home at night, and it is happily suf
ficient unto itself. Nothing else out
strips its babyhood proportions with
| such seven-league boots, as the gos
ling. Today it greets you, fresh from
the shell, a plump, talkative, respon
: sive bunch of golden down; next week
| a faded, gawky creature wobbles to
| meet you. clumsy, yet still trustful
and friendly.
There is something substantial and
practical about the goose, a certain re
liability that should commend it to
poultry raisers apart from its profit
able aspect. The flighty guinea and
the irresponsible turkey at times try
the poultry raiser's soul sorely. The
' goose, quiet and capable with her
i healthy brood after the first few
weeks. is dependable and trustworthy.
In goose-raising, as much import
ance attaches to the selection o fa va
riety as with chickens. The demand
of the nearest market usually swings
the decision. In New York. Phila
delphia and Baltimore, the white com
mand best prices alive. Consequent
j ly, nearby sections favor a breed of
this color. Of the seven varieties,
three are most common. The large
| Toulouse is prolific, but its gray feath
' ers are inferior. The Chinese goose,
slender and white, or perhaps brown,
j with knobbed bill, is noisy and small.
;The Emden seems to be the "general
utility" breed, for besides its abundant
thatch of white feathers, it weighs al
most as heavily as its gray relation,
the Toulouse.
Selecting tlie Breeders
A flock may number from three
geese and one gander to thirty geese
and ten ganders, dependent upon the
farmer's resources in grass. The pre
valent size numbers twelve, from
which the farmer may average sev
enty-five goslings. Flocks are as
| sembled in December, likewise all
changes made therein. If young
geese are wanted, they should be tak
en from the first-hatched goslings. In
dividuals are selected for size, shape
liness and proportion. Young gan
ders and geese are distinguishable on
ly by experienced persons. The male
carries a high head on a long neck
and utters a call not so shrill as that
of the goose. He may be larger also.
Otherwise, no notable difference ex
jists. In the laying season, when the
] female develops a dewlap, the sexes
I are plainly apparent. Breeders should
always be marked to insure them from
I being mistaken for well-developed gos
| lings when the final separation takes
I place in December.
Qualifications of Goose Mothers
When geese establish a reputation
as layers of large and many eggs, and
as sensible mothers, they are good
for long service. Some families rec
ord keeping certain geese for 20 years.
Pew are permitted such longevity, but
it Is possible and the elder mothers
are undeniably best.
After the flock Is chosen and has
been tested, unnecessary alterations
are unwise. The goose that lays
small or deformed eggs, or proves to
be a frivolous parent, should be dis
posed of. For various reasons, gan
ders are often changed, chiefly to im
prove the stock and to increase the
size of the offspring. To introduce
one strange gander Into the flock is
to Invite dissension. The old ones
flay hlin unmercifully. The better
policy AS to umk« a cev of all

j early maturity. One record from Cali
, fornia shows that a flock commenced
to lay at the age of sixteen weeks. An
other record shows that two ducks laid
258 eggs in six months, which is great
j ly in excess of the average duck's pro
| ductlon.
! The plumage of this variety is a soft
buff over all, with the exception of the
i male, that has a seal brown head sev
eral shades darker than the body col
or. The bills on both sexes are green
ish yellow.
The aim has been to breed only
those laying white eggs, and to this
end careful breeders are hatching only
the whitest eggs. A few years of this
selection will produce the desired re
sult. The weights required of these
ducks are six to seven pounds for
males, and five to six pounds for fe
i males.
-ganders at once. Equality makes for
peace. •
The family life of geese abounds
with interest. The gander chooses
' one mate to whom he devotes himself
| assiduously. He is jealously suspic
ious, whence many bloody battles with
I other ganders He accompanies her
faithfully. When they walk together,
; lie stalks ahead. He has been seen
to block her way deliberately when
she evinced an intention to choose
her own direction.
' During the winter—the season of
(courtship—geese begin to need more
j oversight. .Most growers agree that
[ over-fat geese produce the greater
j number of infertile eggs, and guard
I against such conditions accordingly.
Thin geese, on the other hand, defer
| laying which makes late broods. This
l in turn curtails weight at shipping
time. The profitable medium is the
goose of average weight laying early
in February- Such eggs may be set
in March. The goslings break the
: shell in time for the earliest tender
>grass. From this hatching' come the
best breeders.
Care of the Kggs
The goose-house, in deference to
I that fowl's strong attachment for its
| quarters should always have the same
location. Any style of architecture
suits the goose. The nest is the im
jportant feature. Box-like nests, 15x22
inches, built side by side on the earth
'en floor, with a liberal filling of hay,
straw, dead pine leaves or other lit
ter. are an excellent accommodation.
, The eggs should be collected daily, and
I marked with ink or indelible pencil
(with the date of laying. This en
ables the raiser always to set oldest
eggs first, for in this business as with
all poultry, the older the egg for in
ißubation, the weaker the youngster.
' In saving the eggs till brooding time,
certain safeguards are needful. Eggs
should be set on end, turned often and
protected from drying and sudden ex
tremes of temperature. A flannel
lined box or old feather-bed in an un
seated room is often favored, the eggs
I being covered with pillows.
I Natural incubation is to be prefer
red to artificial. For the purpose of
getting more eggs from the flock, at
least two hens should be set coinci
dent with each goose. Each may
fover five or six. depending upon size
of hens and eggs. One goose can
hover the resultant hatching of her
own and of the hens. For every
dozen set. one goose may be broken
I from sitting to resume her second
laying. These last eggs, laid in warm
j weather, unsupervised, usually hatch
j phenomenally well. Though the gos-
I lings face life to be supported on the
lough grass of June, they grow rapidly
, with supplemental feeding and become
• worthy, if belated, members of the
j season's flock.
Normally, a goose egg hatches in 28
•lays, but it may be prolonged. Tardy
goslings may require aid to emerge
from the shell, but it must be cau
tious, else permanent injury results.
These unfortunates lack stamina, but
may outgrow the discrepancy.
Management of tioslings
Goslings are removed from the nest
lest they be crushed. The second day
restores them to the mother, who is
given a roomy coop with sod floor.
Kor food they like a liquid mixture
of meal and bran In a pieplate, often
replenished. Coarse sand Is acces
sible. Hard-boiled egg, chopped
grass, bread crumbs in milk, etc., are
not needed by Emdens.
Goslings revel in sunshine and grass
flanked with water. A wire-topped
coop with slat sides, Bx6x2 feet, which
is easily moved is efficient in confin
