    WOMEN'S INTERESTS
THE STRUGGLES OF A WIFE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water
CHAPTER XXXVI
Although Grace Webb's convales
cence was as rapid as could be expect
ed, the enforced inactivity irked the
girl terribly.
Dr. Horton had insisted upon early
hours, and had forbidden any social
gayety. This prohibition was unneces
sary. for most of the Webb's acquaint
ances had left town, for tho heated
term. As during the tirst Summer
after her father's failure in business,
the days dragged drearily for the girl.
She was temporarily cheered by a
letter from Miss Letson asking her
if she would consider taking her for
mer position as teacher again in the
Fall. Grace replied immediately, ac
cepting.
"Of course, the iciea of teaching is
abhorrent to me just now," she told
her mother. "Yet the prospect of
doing nothing and of making no
money for myself is still more pain
ful than the thought of daily drudg
ery."
Myra smiled. "When you are real
ly well again, dear." she soothed, "you
will enjoy life just as much as you
ever did."
"Maybe so," the girl rejoined skep- ,
tically. "But it is certainly deadly
dull just now.
To the mother life seemed all too
strenuous. Much had to be crowded
Into the short period before she and
the invalid could leave town. She
must get ahead with her copying; for
her typewriter was to be packed and
shipped to The Heights so that it \
might be In the hotel by the time she '
reached there.
For even up in the mountains she i
must All her orders. Otherwise how I
pay for the sojourn there and for the
many expenses that would meet her
upon her return to New York in Sep
tember?
Grace must be amused in spite of
aU these duties. In obedience to
her physician's orders she strolled ev
ery day Into Morntngslde park and j
sat there for an hour. As she dis
liked to go alone, her mother accom
panied her. Myra did not intimate
to her daughter that time taken from
her desk in the daylight hours must
be made up after dark.
She Has to Work Hard
In the evening she would take her
typewriter into the diningroom that
the sound of its clicking might not
disturb her husband and daughter, and
after closing the door tightly she
worked far into the night. Once
Horace voiced a protest.
"You are overdoing. Myra," he ob
jected.
"I can't help it," she said.
Couldn't he understand how much
money would he needed for the trip
to the mountains? The thought came
to her suddenly that perhaps it was
her own fault that he did not under
stand. Well, then, she would en
lighten him.
"1 asked Dr. Horton to send in his
bill." she Informed him, "and I have |
paid all but $25 of It."
"There was no need of such haste,'
was thes»?" her husband queried.
Not a word of gratitude at her do
ing tills, she noticed. He took all
euch things for granted. Yes —she
had brought about this state of affairs

| herself and yet she had done it all
!to help him.
i She did not know that her tone
i was sharp, nor that the strain of the
past' few weeks was showing itself in
her manner as she replied to Horace's
i question.
"Certainly there was reason for
such haste. It worries me to have an
1 unpaid bill hanging over me."
"I hope," Horace said, as if an
swering an implied challenge, "that
you do not fancy I moan to give you
nothing toward yours and Grace's out
ing V When you are ready to go 1
will buy your tickets for you, and I
will also hand you fifty dollars. I
i wish I could do more," he added, de
spondently, "but I can't —that is, not
I Just now."
"You are very kind," she mur
mured.
She did not mean to be ungracious,
iyet at that instant she could make
!no more cordial acknowledgement.
Why could he not express in words as
well as in this promised deed his ap
preciation of her efforts? Fifty dol
lars. That indeed would be a great
help. And yet there would be the
I hotel bills and extras for two people
j for one month in a fashionable Sum
mer resort. Well, never mind; she
'would pay them herself, without help
from anybody.
Many Things to Buy
! She wished that she could get a few
Summer dresses for Grace, and said
as much to her daughter the next
I day.
I "I don't want you to get me a
'thing," the girl exclaimed. "I have
| had lots of time for thinking lately,
'mother—during these days since my
| Illness. lam a dead weight and a
loss to you and father just now. My
• illness has cost you both a lot of
money."
"oh. my dear!" Myra protested.
There was a flush of her face and
a tremor in her tone that the girl no
ticed. With her teacher's dislike of
i a "scene." she spoke coldly.
"Since this is true," she continued,
"it is not fair for me to use father's
money for new clothes when I have
old ones that will do."
"But I would not use your father's
money if I bought them for you,"
Myra began, then checked herself.
"It is the same tiling exactly," Grace
said, ignoring her companion's con
jfesslon. "If you not things for me,
father would have to pay for some
thing else that you would have paid
for. You and he are one, mother;
so let's say nothing more about the
| matter. My last Summer's dresses
i are whole and decent, if not fashion
-1 able. They must do. I shall al
ways be poor, and 1 may as well' dress
to the part."
How gloomy the child was the
mother mused; and how much like
her father! of course it was natural
that, now that Grace could not work
; nor play, but must sit and think fur
I hours at a time, she should turn such
I matters over in her mind,
j Although the conversation ended
' hare, Myra Webb felt as If her daugh
ter had reproved her for an impetu
osity unbecoming a woman of mature
years. She had often had the same
feeling lu talking with Grace'e father.

"Tee," said Mary, 'brightening. "Do
rou mean to say there's something of
he sort in the museum?"
"The acoustics <ir« very peculiar,'*
■aid Mona. "I won't make any prom
ises at aIL but I have hopes—very
high hopes."
And the next day she took up her
watch In a certain spot In the gallery.
From where she waited she could not
eee the despoiled frame of the Monna
Vanna at all, hut that did not trouble
her. And, sure enough, after a little
time, she heard the voice of Melnotte.
'1 told you you vou'd be surprised.
Mr. Watson!" said the dealer. "I
needn't point out to a real collector
like yourself that this is a singularly
Impudent copy of the famous Monna
Vanna?"
"By Jove!" said a voice that was
strange to Mona—the voice of Wat
son. "You're right, man! What a
eeandal!"
"The estimable Mr. Crogan has cer
tainly fooled the public this time!"
said Melnotte.
"Oh. give the man his due—he's a
fool, not a crook,' said Watson. "I've
no doubt he thought he had the real
thing—and I happen to know that he
paid a stiff price for this forgery of
his! He'll look pretty foolish when
this comes out!"
"He's always refused to take com
pel ent advice—" began Melnotte.
"Meaning yourself?" suggested Wat

Far removed from them though she
was. every work came clear and dis
tinct to Mona's alert ears And yet she
knew that had she been within a dozen
feet of them she would have heard
only an Indistinct meaningless mur
mur. It was a curious trick of acous
tics, throwing the -wind of their voices
about. ech< I rig from this soot and that,
that brought the sounds to her so dis
tinctly.
Melnotte ignored the collector's in
terruption.
"I suppose you'd like to know where
the original Is'"' he said.
"Would I?" said Watson. "I'd buy It
In like a shot and present It to the
museum, just for the pleasure of Bee-
Ins Crogan squirm—the Ignoramus!"
"Well—'lt's not very far from here,"
said Melnotte. "It's In my shop, to be
frank! I know 1 can tru«t you to re
spect my confldenoe!"
There was an exclamation of unul>
ment from Watson.
"Well—l shall certaln'.jr have to ee«
if you are rlnht!" he »aid. "And If you
I are. I'll be as good as my word—l'll
take It off your hands and grlve It to
the museum myself! Perhaps people
won't take a new rich dabbler in art
like Crogan so seriously after this!"'
Once more Mona hod to suffer the
strain of waiting to learn from Mary
the outcome of something of which
she herself had s»>en the beginning.
1 But she could, watt patiently; she was
j sure that wben Mary cama home there
would be news. And, as a matter of
fact, she had not quite so long to wait.
Sh>> hurried home herself, and In a
little while the telephone rang.
"Quick!" gasped Mary. "I've only a
second. Bring your own copy of the
Monna Vanna down here at once! Come
right into the shop—neither Harry nor
Melnotte will be there. I'll meet you
j and get It from you. I can't explain
more!"
MOna wag mystified, but Mary's tone
convinced Tier that it was of the ut
most importance' that she should obey
her chum to the letter. She wrapped
up the copy ehe had made, laughing
the while at its ridiculous character.
; It was so poor a <*opy, ehe knew, de
spite the help Harry had given her,
that it was grotesque, and It would
not deceive anyone who know the orig
inal picture, for a single minute.
' Nevertheless. she decided if Mary
J wanted it, she should have it.
But It was with even greater Impa
tience that stie waited at home, after
a momentary talk with Mary, who had,
of course, no time to tell her what was
going on. And .vhen Mary came in
Mona pounced upon her before she
could even take off her hat.
"Look!" cried Mary dramatically.
Phe lifted her skirt, and underneath,
pinned fast to her underskirt, was
the precious picture itself—no copy,
but the original masterpiece, the Pa-
I mous Monna Vanna!
"Mary!" cried Mona. in a panic.
I "Whatever are you going to do with
that?"
"Ah —that I don't know myself, yet!"
! Bald Mary.
But Mona got the story, bit by bit.
"They came back—'Harry and- Mel
notte- —with Watson." sa id Mary. "And
they showed him the picture. He was
tremendously excited —just as stirred
up as I would have been if some one
had offered me a wonderful diamond
necklace. They talked a lot about
thowing up a man called Crogan—"
"I can tell you about that," said
Mona, and did.

HARRISBTTRG TELEGRAPH
FLOWER CONTEST
GROWS EACH DAY
Telegraph Contributes Money
to Its Success; Has No
Financial Interest
As a stone thrown into a stream
! causes an ever-widening series of
circles to ruffle the surface of the
water, so the enthusiasm which has
been aroused for making Harris
| burg the Flower City of Pennsylvania
j has spread until it has become, in the
space of two short months, an item of
no mean importance in the city's list
of asset#.'
One of the most striking results of
the campaign for flower and window
and porch boxes is shown in the more
than attractive box which a passer-by
noticed in the window of a humble
home in an industrial section of the
; city. The family was evidently in
| straitened circumstances, yet the love
! of flowers prevailed so strongly in that
household that a store box had been
rilled with flowers, presenting a most
j attractive front.
The Telegraph has no financial or
business interest in the flower box con
test. Indeed, It has cost this news
paper some hundreds of dollars up to
this time, to make no mention of the
< ost of the prizes to be awarded and
'the expense of three inspections to be
made during the summer. It has no
interest whatsoever in the purcliusje of
j flowers from any one concern or any
.several concerns. Ail II desires Is that
Harrisburg shall become the Flower
City of Pennsylvania. This explana
tion is made to clear up a rumor clr
| culated to the effect that the campaign
was being used as a money-making
: proposition. Instead of making
| money by It, the Telegraph is con
| rributtng generously toward the mis
-1 sionarv effort now being exerted in

Rev. Williams Addresses
Grizzled G. A. R. Veterans
Addressing the members of Post 58,
Grand Army of the Republic, yester
day morning in the ("amp Curtln Me
morial Methodist Church, the Rev.
A. S. Williams spoke on "Religion and
the War of the Rebellion," using as
his text, Isaiah 59:19, "When the
enemy shall come In like a flood, the
Spirit of the I>ord shall life up a
standard against him."
The Rev. Mr. Williams opened his
forceful sermon with a reference to
religion In the lives of Washington
and Lincoln. The Rev. Mr. Williams
then told little personal reminiscences
in the lives of Lee, Stonewall Jack
son and other great leaders in the
war, and declared that faith played a
large part in the war. During his en
tire address, the Rev. Mr. Williams
showed the result of religion and the
Civil War and In closing said:
"We must now say since rellgioT
was such a boon to the nation in 1861
and 1864 it must lie an equal boon to
j day. The old soldier has done his
' work. It would be a shame if the
I younger generation were to ask these
i men who saved'the nation to now
( light their battles. Theirs was a suf
• ticient sacrifice. The battles of to
! day, my younger brothers, are for us
ito fight. And db we not have grave
j problems to solve in these perilous
1 times—battles to fight though we may
not be entangled in the great war.
"Evils are entrenched in our land,
aristocracies are always lifting their
heads, selfish Inequalities dtshearten
our people, the spirit of graft under
mines our integrity. What work this
of completing and perfecting that
which is behind their noble work. How
| Is the spirit of graft to be destroyed?
Do you answer by bringing the law
j up to the facts of life? Yes, but behind
I the enactment and enforcement of the
i law there must he an indignant re
[ liglous sense. The sense of a present
! day God. This is the only power that
can maintain an unselfishness capable
! of crushing this disintegrating evil.
Take the propaganda of socialism.
' We all believe In It to some extent,
i Rut the question is socialism, how far
and where to end? The question is
socialism by what method? We are
j told to prepare for socialism. Let us
i thank God for the progress thus far
in social adjustment but let us he
saved from the Godless extremes.
More religion is what we need to
maintain a brotherly socialism when
it comes. What we need to save the
I country, says one of the ablest writers
on socialism, is a far and wide sweep
i ing revival of religion.
"Or think of our peculiar American
j Institution. What is the salt that
! saves them? What can save the
j American Sabbath? Give us in this
country a continental Sabbath and
I then commercialism and selfishness
I Will destroy our rest day. Religion is
! what saves it to-day. ft cannot be
, saved unless it be by religion.
"T must close, Grand Army men—
my application is very particular. The
swath of death is very wide these days
in your ranks. It is now fifty years
since the war. You have lived the al
lotted years. Religion can sustain you
as you meet the last great enepiy. On
the chancel wall of the Camp Curtin
Church will be placed a very beautiful
picture. It is that of a soldier dying
on the field of battle. Christ comes
to him and his hope of immortality
and resurrection is secure. Thanks he
to God who giveth us the victory
through the Ivord and Saviour Jesus
Christ. When that chaste, modest,
brave victor of Appomattox died there

Headed by Captain Congo, artist,
j electrician and mathematician, a dele
nation of more than 100 simians are
now migrating in this direction and
will arrive here Wednesday, June 14.
| The jungle party will Include mon
keys of all spices and sizes from the
Marmosets of the Brazilian forests, no
larger than squirrels, to Black Ben, a
giant ape from the Soudan. But, from
the smallest to the largest, these Dar
win proteges look upon "Old Cap. Con
go" as the chief of their colony. He
has won command by reason of brains
rather than brawn. In the opinion of
scientists, Congo is the most intelligent
of all simians. In the role of mathe
matician. he demonstrates his skill by
counting marbles. A box is handed him
which* is supposed to contain ten mar
bles and the knowing fellow removes
them one at a time. If his keeper
places but nine In the box Congo will
miss the tenth In an instant and make
obvious search for It. If different col
ored balloons are placed in his cage he
will Invariably select the very reddest
of them all, and he has never been
known to fall to select a red apple
from a dish of varied colored fruit.
But If these experiments give Congo
pleasure, his greatest Joy Is to be al
lowed to take part In the "wiring" of
Rlnglingville. All the Rlngling circus
tents are lighted by electricity. Every
den tn the 108-cage zoo is illuminated
with Incandescent lamps and every tent
has numerous flaming arcs. The elec
trical effects used in connection with
the fairyland spectacle, "Cinderella,"
are alone sufficient to light a small
sized village. So the streets and areas
nf circusland must be "wired" each day.
The cables which carry the current
from the Immense portable dynamos
are burled under ground. One of the
cables leading Into the menagerie tent
it always laid near Captain Congo's
glass front apartment. As soon as the
men who dig the trench come Into

ican to his country.
"Tou have all heard the famous
words 'Millions for defense but not
one cent for tribute.' " said Dr. Lyter
"Let me change that Just enough to
make It read 'Millions tor defense but
not one cent for offense.' "
Dr. Lyter declared that a man's
flrei duty is to defend his hjme
against its enemies and that it is just
as much his duty to defend his coun
try. "I would be less a man," he de
clared, "if I refused to defend my /
home and my country because of
sill;, sentlmentaiism."
"If." added Dr. Lyter, "defense
must take the form of armies and
navies, then let us have what we must
have."
He also took occasion to lament
the way in which the younger people
spend such days as Memorial Day and
July 4. He said that while no one
loves sports and the out-of-doors more
than he, he does not believe Memorial
Day is the time for going to base
hall games and so on. "Let such
days be spent in learning lessons of
patriotism and heroism," he con
cluded.
