WHAT BKSS DEAN' WHISPER 1 Kl TO MADGE A3 THEY PREPARED TO LISTEN TO DICKY'S TALK 'Police! Help! I'm sinking! Will nobody throw me a rope?" Dicky'plped the words in a high falsetto, throwing up his hands in a ludicrous- pretence of being overwhelmed by the weight of his mother's remarks. - "Rlchard!"llis mother uttered his name as if she had just flicked it from the end of a whip lash. "Stop that nonsense at once. I never permitted such conduct from you while you were a child, and I shall certainly not begin the practice now." Can't help it." he returned, unabashed and, indeed. 1 had hard work to keep back a smile at her assertion, for I had guessed lonj? befores that my husband had always been a spoiled child "if you will persist in forcing the dictionary down my throat, moth er, you must not be surprised at any kind of) exhibition from roe. Itlg words always affect me that way, and I'll bet you had more polysyllables to the square inch in that last spiel of yours than even Madge here can manage, and sh usually takes the cake, the king and the chocolate filling in lhat direction." Ills molher rose with drawn trows and flashing eyes. Mrs Graham's Suggestion. "I will not stay here to be In sulted," she began, but her vola tile son had reached her side be fore she had fairly gotten away from her chair, had put his arm tenderly around her. and was look in e down into her face with laughine. audacious eyes. "Don't be mad at me. Mum sey." he pleaded, giving her the old pet name which I knew he had used in his childhood. "I didn't mean to be bad. But they were awful whoppers of wordii. now weren't they?" He pushed her gently Into her fhair. watched with dancing eyes the little smile that evidently against her will crept around her grim lips. Then he kissed her again and went back to his seat. "There seems much wisdom in the mater's suggestion,'' he said to me. "Is there any decent place for eats In Uayvlew?" "Oh. yes. there Is a very good little inn abodt a half mile from the school. It's called the Rose Garden, because in summer the roses in the grounds are wonder ful. Any one can tell vou where it is." "All riEht." Dicfcv returned nonchalantly. T11 blow in there a little before noon, order lunch, and send a taxi over to the school house lor yon. No. ma'am, 1 won't be in it." He answered the involuntary question In my eye?. "As I remarked' before. I won't appear at that thre 'fkewlhowse' until I'm escorted there by me wedded wife. What time will you be ready?" "At ten minutes of twelve." I answered promptly, "and-1 must be back at twenty minutes of one. so don't order too elaborate a lunch." "Well. I'm doing to feed my face If all Rayview stands on its head." Dicky grumbled, "so you'd better be on time." "I'll be at the door." I promised, and excusing myself, sped away to ray train, happy in the thought that Dicky, meant to attend the fnnctions planned for him. but uneasily wondering what he DRESS MM 1 If KEEP FEET Tells Rheumatism Sufferers to Take Knits and Oet Rid of I rk Acid Rheumatism is no respector of age. e. color or rank. lr no: the moat dangerous of human afflic tions it is one of the most painful. Those subject to rheumatism shonld eat less meat, dresa as warmly as possible, avoid 'any un due espoaure and. nbove ail. drink lots of pure water. Rheumatism is caused by jnrlc acid which is generated In the bowels and absorbed into the blood. It is the function of the kidneys to niter this acid trom the blood and cast tt ont in the urine; the pores of the skin are alro a means of freeing the blood of this Impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kid neys to do double work, they be come weak and sluggish and fail to eliminate the uric acid which keep accumulating and circulat ing through the system, eventually settling in the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness ajid pain called rheumatism. At the first twinge of rheuma tism get from any pharmacy about four ounces of Jad Salts; put a tablespoonful in a glass of water and drink before breakfast each morning for a week. This is said to eliminate uric acid by stimulating the kidneys to normal action, thus ridding the blood of these impurities. Jad Salts is Inexpensive, harm leas and is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithia and is used with excel lent results by thousands of for iUwbo are subject to rheumatism. J' n '- meant to say to the children when' ih'e time cam for him to make the speech he had planned. For with the new 'light of ilie morning had conie t,he realization that Dicky was perfectly right In his strictures upon the phrase ology of the speech 1 had written for him. however unjustified h might have been in the rude phraseology in which he couched his criticism. The language I had used, was that which I would myself employ, and I could see was utterly different from that which Dicky would naturally use. The indignation I had, felt at DlckyV rejection of my written efforts was now. curiously enough, swallowed up in the fear tha: in his repentance for ,his rudeness he would really use the manuscript which he had pasted together after I had torn it. A Troublesome Thought. The thought troubled me all the morning, stayed with nie dur ing the otherwise enjoyable lunch of which Dicky and I partook at noon, and increased intensity when, after returning to the schol, and introducing Dicky to Mr. Stockbridge, who promptly took him in charge, I assisted Miss Holcombe in marshalling the pupils into the big assembly room and arranging the trophies which Dicky had permitted me to bring as a background for his talk. "I give you fair warning," Hess Dean whispered to me in a snatched interval of marshalling marching children. "I'm gOinj to flirt desperately with that hus band of yours if I once get a chance.
