Author of “The Promoter's Wife,” and Other Stories. (Copyright by George Mathew Adams.) SANDRA DECIDES TO DISOBEY HER HUSBAND. I ' • LIOT tears scalded my face as I * * turned from the telephone. Why had he told me I was to go with him, only to disappoint me. Then his message: “Do not accept | any invitations or invite guests while I am away.” It was insulting. “I’ll ask Mrs. Gray if she (mean ing Leola of course) was not allowed to receive anyone or go enywhere unless Everett was with her,” I stormed aloud. “I don’t believe she would have been so meek and so silly as to let him boss her the way he_tries to me!” I really was more hurt than an gry, however, and threw myself on my bed and cried bitterly. I thought of the promised shopping, the plays we were to see—instead of which I was to remain alone while he prob ably saw the plays, and had a good time in other ways instead of shop ping with me. What had happened to change his mind? I raised myself suddenly, my tears ceased as the thought came to me. My jealously flared. Was it because of some other woman? Someone with whom he was going to spend his tim’e—his evenings, instead of spending them with me? “I would go! He had told me I might, and he had no right.to dis appoint me without giving me a rea son,” I said aloud,' drying my angry tears. “I’ll show, him I have some rights as well as that Leola!” Mrs. Gray had heard me at the telephone, but I was sure she had been unable to judge of the conver sation because I had had no oppor tunity to object. “Will you call the car, Mrs. Gray, I will be down immediately,”! said and turned away so she would 'hot notice that I had.been crying. “Send H r t’v to me ’pjease.” Hetty came at once, and I caution ed her to hurry and strap my bag, and carry it down to the car. I wait ed ju«t long enough to adjust a veil, then followed her. * Doctor Bui'i ' Hospital ' With His Own Hands ' —~ ; ?■ Ilastings-oti-Hudson, N.

The American men and women must guard constantly against Kidney trouble, because we eat too much and all our food is rich. Our blood is filled with urio acid which the kidneys strive to filter out, they weaken from overwork, become sluggish; the eliminative tissues clog and the result is kidney trouble, bladder weakness and a general decline in health. When your kidneys feel like lumps of lead; your back hurts or the urine is cloudy, full of sediment or you are obliged to seek relief two or three times during the night; if you suffer with sick headache or dizzy, nervous spells, acid stomach, or you have rheumatism when the weather is bad, get from your phar macist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate clogged kidneys; to neutralize the acids in the urine so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in jure, makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water beverage, and belongs in every home, because nobody can make a mistake by having a good kidney flush ing any time.

I had dusted my cheeks with pow- I der, and bathed my eyes, so that no i traces of my tears remained as I ! took my seat in the car. i “You will have to hurry a little, ; Thomas,” 1 told the chauffeur. “We ; have only just time to get to the train.” “I 11 make it, ma’am.” But we got caught in a jam at a i crossing, and another one when there was a slight accident a car ahead of us ,1 did not feel so sure that we would catch it. I leaned forward, feeling almost as if by so doing I was helping the car along. I rush : ed to the ticket window and bought a ticket; then hurried to the gate, only to have it slammed to when I was about three feet away, and to i see the ticket-taker nonchalantly take down the shiny sign telling what time the train would leave, and re place it with another. I cried out in my disappointment and chagrin. People turned and stai'ed at me, and I felt horribly erm barrassed. I peered through the iron palings, and imagined I saw Everett get on the train—anyway the man reminded me of him. Then I turned away, blinded with tears.—l felt thankful that my veil —though thin—was a slight protec tion from the stares of the curious. I hurried back to where I had left ' Thomas. I had refused his Services, i giving my heavy bag to one of the i uniformed porters. I did not wish ' the chauffeur to hear Everett if he ! Were angry and said disagreeable | things because I had disobeyed him. Thomas had gone! What in the ' world should I do? “Good evening, Miss!” an oily faced | creature said with a leer as he pass | ed. I shrunk closely toward the wall, i and he passed on with a horrid ! chuckle that someway made me ill. “Cab, Miss?” to my r'elief I saw it 1 was the starter who addressed me. “Yes, please.” “Where to?” I gave him the address, then sank gratefully back in the corner of the cab and cried softly until I reached home. Tomorrow —An Accident. Value of Herbs in Cookery. The old-fashioned kitchen garden was not considered complete without its small collection of “pot herbs”— sage, thyme, and other medicinal and savory herbs. French cooking is noted, for its fine flavor, and this is largely because French cooks excel in the skillful use of herbs. Gloom and Gladness.

It has been proved that the produce from one acre of bananas will support a much greater number of people than a similar acre under any other crop and the immense yield may be pre served for an indefinite period by dry ing the fruit and preparing meal from it.
