"I am better aware of that than you are." she returned, ungrariouxlv making no response to my proffer of bospitalitr. Then she turned her at tention Dicky.

I do not notice that you or Margaret take the trou ble to consult nie before inviting your friends here." . Dicky opened his month to reply but I effectually stopped him by swift kick, which I think found mark, for he jumped perceptibly and flashed me a wrathful look. ! knew that he was thfiklng of the strenu ous objection his mofher had made to our entertaining the Underwoods and to the proposed visit of Robert Gordon to our home. But I knew also that it was no time to rake up old scores. I foresaw trouble enough in this proposed visit of my relatlves-in-law whom I had never seen, with out having things complicated by a row between Dicky and his mother (To be continued) REVELATIONS OF A WIFE The Story of a Honeymoon A Wonderful Romance of Harried Life Wonderfully Told bj AJDELK GARRISON CHAPTER CCCLXI HOW MADGE MADE THE BEST OK S AN ODD SITUATION OF MOTH ER GRAHAM'S MAKING. "Weir children, have you made . any plans for Dicky's birthday yet!" I nearly fell off my chair in as tonishment at the friendliness in mr mother-in-law's tones. She had beep aulky ever since we had come home ' from our summer outing in the Cat skills, a sulkiness caused by her re sentment of what she chose to con sider the Indiscreet interest taken In me by Robert Gordon, the mys terious millionaire whom I had dis covered to be an old friend of my parents. I shrewdly suspected, how ever, that her continued resentment was more because Dicky chose to take my part' against her, than be cause of any real feeling toward me. Nearly a year's experience, how ever, had taught me how best to manage my mother-in-law. When she Indulged herself in one of her frequent "tantrums" I Adopted carefully, courteous scrupulously formal attitude toward her, ard dis missed her from ray mind.

DON'T FAIL TO SEE THIS GREAT PICTURE BLIGH THEATRE 2DAY AND 2M0RR0W i 7 saved myself much worry and irri tation, and deprived her of the pleas ure of a quarrel, something which I knew she would be glad to bring op sometimes for the sheer pleasure of combat. Her question was so sfldden, her cordiality so surprising, that I could frame no answer. Instead, I looked helplessly at JHcky. To tell the truth, I rather distrusted this sud den amiability. ' From past exper iences, I knew that when Mother Graham made a sudden change from sulkiness to tfheeTfulness, she had some scheme under way. Dicky's answer was prompt. "That's entirely up to Madge mother, he said, and smiled at me "We Shall Be Delighted." I smiled back at him with proper wifely appreciation or his courtesy, but I had hard work to conceal the malicious amusement that lay be neath the smile. Ever since the mass meeting at Madison Square Garden when I had been so nearly hurt, Dicky had acted in such a- boorish manner to my rescuer, Dr Pettit. my liege lord had been on his very best behavior.- He was like s 6mall boy trying to propitiate a stern i eacher. Although his mother tried hard she could not keep the acerbity out or her tones as she turned to me She always resented any deference of Dicky to my opinion. "Well, as Richard has no opinion of his own, what are your plans Margaret?" . "Why, I have made none so far," I stammered, wishing with all mr hear! that I had made some definite plan for the holiday. I could see from my mother-in-law's manner that she had some cherished scheme in mind, and my prophetic soul told me that it would be something which I would not particularly like. "Good." she returned. "Then shall not be. interfering with inr plan of youTs. I have already writ ten to Elizabeth asking them to come out here for Dicky's birthday. This is an awful shack, of course, but It's the country, and the children will en- ginning of one of the project" without capital could, through Indus try and frugality earn and save enonRh to majce his Initial and other payment as they heroine due.

Dicky turned to her abruptly, his brow stormy, his eyes flashing. "Mother, do yqu mean to say that you have already written to Eliza beth without first consulting Madge as to whether it would be conven ient?" I tmd heavily on his toes under the table in the vain hope that ' would be able to stop him from say ing the words which I knew would in flame his toother's temper.

Sinnott. of Oreron. chairman of the committee on public lands of the house of representatives has reported the Mondell bill. H. II. 4 ST. known as the national soldiers settlement act. o the house. The Mondell bill which is along the lines of Secretary Lane's plan, was not materially changed by the committee which has held almost dpily hearings and meetings to con sider the measure, since congress convened In May. The bill contemplates the reclama tion, acquisition and development of one o- more projects in each state and is designed to assist soldiers to tret homes under the best conditions. When such a project has been devel oped to a point where the lands ei ther by reclamation, clearing, drain are, or irrigation are in fit condition for farming, the area will I, divid ed Into farms by the bill as report ed to the house. Five Per Cent Allotment A payment of " er cent on the value fixed is required at the time the farm Is allotted. Thus on a farm valued at tr.OoO the initial payment would be S2..0, a sum which the fol dier could save while working on the development of the project for one to three years during which time he would be paid the going wages. After the farms have been allot ted, assistance is to be given the soldier In making his Improvements, the maximum loan provided for this purpose being SlaOO. and not in ex cess of three-fourths of the cost or value of the Improvements. During or In connection with the making of his improvements the soldier could by his personal efforts work and easily contribute his 23 per rent of he toa! ost. Provision is also made for loan to the soldier settler for the pur chase of necessary live stock and equipment, the maximum of such loans being $1200. or 75 per cent of the total cost of necessary live stock and 60 per cent of the equipment, so that while It is assumed that in many cases the soldier would have some savings for a start.
