PAGE TEN THE IUCHMONP PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM, WEDNESDAY, NOV. .. 1913 Married Life the Second Year By MABEL HERBERT URNER. .Mrs. Prentice, with a magazine, a tiny v.orkbag and a parasol, paused uncertainly in the door-way. "Won't you join us?" asked Helen cordially, "from tin; depths of a big wicker chair at the end of the veran da. Mrs. F'rentice smiled. "Not just now. I've such a headache, I won't Inflict myself on anyone at present." Anil t.lie passed on to a shady cor ner and settled herself in a hammock. She made no effort, to sew or read, but gazed out at the sea through wistful half closed eyes. "I'm afraid it's heartache, not a headache, that's troubling her," mur mured Mrs. Stevens. "A heartache," Helen repeated, won deriiiKly. "Why, I thought she was very happy." "Then, you're not a very close obser ver, my dear. Haven't you been here loim enough to know the gossip? Haven't you seen her husband with that Mrs." Kline?" I lelen shook her head. "Well, you will if you'll take the trouble to notice. They're together constantly." "tuit she's so much prettier than Mrs. Kline so much more dainty and refined. THE USUAL WAY. Mrs. Stevens shrugged her should ers. "Unquestionably. The wife is al most always more charming and re fined than the 'other woman." Helen, who was crocheting a silk tie for Warren, worked on in silence. She wanted to know more about .Mrs. Pren tice to know why her husband was interested in this other woman, who was so much less attractive than her self. Hut she had always shrank from gossip. And now she hesitated to put her questions into words. However, Mrs. Stevens went, on without prompt ing. "Don't you remember the other night at the dance how he spent the whole evening with Mrs. Kline and left his wife to take care of herself. We tried to keep her in our paity so she wouldn't seem so alone, but she soon excused herself and went upstairs." Helen glanced over at the slim, white-gowned figure in the hammock. The magazine and work bag lay un touched beside her as she still gazed out at the sea. Was she thinking of that same night, or of some other in stance of humiliating neglect "The next day she stayed in her room all morning, and when she did eome down her eyes were red and swollen. She said it was only one of her bad headaches--but of course we knew hotter. She's such a proud little thing, that's why she keeps so much to herself. She's so afraid we'll sympa thize with her." Ml the time. Mrs. Stevens had been talking of Mrs. Prentice, H-leu had been comparing his attitude with that of Warren's. However neglectful Warren had been (d' her, at least it. was not because of any other woman. That was the consohit ion she alvays had and some how now it seenit d to mean more than ever beTore. She felt that could the little woman i;t the hammock change places with her in this respect that she would gladly do so. Any wife would prefer the neglect which arose to that caused by admiration for other women. That evening at dinner, Helen glanc ed across the dining room to where Mr. and Mrs. Prentice were sitting. ' He was rather a good looking man, yet there was something in his face she did not quite like. Mrs. Prentice look ed very sweet and delicately frail in a pale lavender gown. And then Helen's gaze wandered around the dining room to Mrs. Kline. She was strikingly dressed in black and white. Unquestionably a hand some woman, but of the most obvious type, with none of the subtle charm and femininity of Mrs. Prentice. "Warren," Helen asked abruptly, "do you know anything about the Prentices?" "The Prentices? Why, no, nothing more than that I hey are here at the hotel. Why?" "Don't vou know Mr. Prentice at all?" "Oh, I've had a game or two of bil liards with him." "What sort of a man is he?" "Decent enough chap, so far as I litlOW." "Haven't you heard anything about Helen hesitated "about Mrs. Kline, and his neglect of his wife?" "For Heaven's sake, Helen! Are you taking up some old woman's gossip? "You know I'm not! Put I couldn't help hut hear something today that made me wonder." "Well, suppose we let the Prentices take care of their own affairs. I dare say they can, without our assistance." Helen flushed and said no more. But in spite of Warren's curtness, she was conscious of the sense of pride which .be always felt at his swift, rejection of gossip in any form. That was one of the fine things of his nature. He nev er gossipped about anyone. It was part of his creed to attend strictly to his own affairs. T.ater in the evening, while Warren was playing billiards, Helen strolled ! IF CHILD'S TONGUE IS COATED If Cross, Feverish, Consti pated, Give "California Syrup of Figs. A laxative today saves a sick child tomorrow. Children simply will not take the time from play to empty their bowels, which become clogged up with waste, liver gets sluggish; stomach sour. Look at the tongue, mother! If coated, or your child is listkss. cross, feverish, breath had. restless, doesn't eat heartily, full of cold or has sore throat or any other children's ailment, give a teaspoonful of "California Syrup of Figs," then don't worry, be cause it is perfectly harmless, and in a fnv hours all this constipation poi sou, sour bile and fermennting waste will gently move out of the bowels, and you have a well, playful child again. A thorough "inside cleansing" is oftinmes all that is necessary, it should be the first treatment given in any sickness. lleware of counterfeit fig syrups. Ask your druggist for a 50-cent bottle tf "Caflornia Syrup of Figs," which has full directions for babies, children aches, dizzy spells; if the kindneys se printed on the bottle.

The tunic skirt is the chief fea ture of this gown of bo is de rose, satin. The tunic of Roman striped satin, in rose, corbeau blue, taupe and white. I would most earnestly advise all but the very tall, slen der woman to have her tunic of the same rose satin that makes the gown. The line of stripes running out around the veranda and through the gravel paths. She sat down on a bench in the moonlight, when from an other bench, behind a clump of hushes. ju:'t back of her. came the sound of voiies, Mr. Prentice and Mrs. Kline. Helen, listened breathlessly tor sev eral moments before she realized that she was listening, and then with a quick feeling of revulsion she hurried back to the veranda. She had not heard much, but enough to hll her with a fierce indignation That a man with so charming a wife should be so disloyal that he should pay such sentimental insane compli ments to another woman. As she came up on the veranda. Warren was just coming out of the billiard room. Impulsively she took his arm and pressed against it. "Oh. Warren, in some ways you are good to me very good to me." "Heh! What's come over you?" "'Oh. nothing. Only sometimes I think I don't appreciate the ways in which you are art very good." "Humph- Well I'm glad my virtues are gradually dawning on you." "Now don't tease me, dear." press ing his arm closer. "I'm very much in earnest. You are good and true in many ways." And then as Warren turned to enter "Oh, let's not go tip just yet."
