drove on.
Gloria turned toward home, kick
ing the walks as she went.
By the time she reached home she
was thoroughly out of temper.
Dick's roadster stood In the drive
way. There was a fire burning In the
living-room grate. And before it,
stretched out on the davenport asleep,
lay Dick.
Gloria tiptoed Into the room and
stood looking down at him. His face
was flushed, and be breathed quickly.
Suddenly he opened bis eyes.
"Glory," he said. And his voice
was like that of a sick child who
wants his mother.
"What's happened to you?" Gloria
asked.
"Nothing," Dick answered. "Pre
had a nasty little cold for days, and
it seems to have slipped up behind
me, all of a sudden. Haven't got
any lemona in the house, have we?"
"I guess so." Gloria went out into
the kitchen. Maggie was there, tear
fully peeling onions.
"Maggie," her mistress said, "have
we any lemons? Mr. Gregory wants
one for his cold."
"It's a hot lemonade be wants,"
Maggie said. "As I've been telling
him for the last hour. But nothing
would he take till yourself came
home. I'll make it. and then we'll get
him into bed between blankets with
a hot water bottle to his feet . . . and
let him sweat the cold out of himself
by morning."
She moved briskly around the kit
chen as she spoke, filling the tea
kettle and mixing lemon Juice and
sugar together In a tall glass.
Gloria went hack to Dick.
"Come upstairs," she Baid. "Maggie
thinks you ought to go to bed. And
while you're undressing I'll put a
hot water bottle in your bed."
In lit minutes Dick was comfort
able. Gloria wanted to telephone the
employment agency about a maid to
take Maggie's place. For she was
sure that the firet thing Mother Greg
ory would do would be to send for
Mnggic to come bock to her.
"Don't go." Dick said. "Stay here
and talk to me."
"What is there to talk about ?"
Gloria asked indifferently.
"IOts of things," Dick answered.

MYSTEUT ISLAND CHAPTER SO
TTAPPER FANNY sep
On Gardening
YTHEN a plant becomes highly de
veloped and attains unusual beau
ty and excellence, there seems to be a
penalty of plagues and peats to follow
rapidly. Such has been the fate of
the aster which has been brought to
a point where it rivals the cfarysan-
themuma in sue, with a wider range ,
of colors not found in the latter.
Some gardeners have given up In '
disgust and left asters off, the garden i
list, which is a pity, for there is no
finer fall annual and none more easily
taed until some of the pests hit it.
"Yellows" la a new complaint that has
caused a great deal of trouble and
bacteriologists and seed specialists
are working to find out the cause, and
a check. The mam recommendation, to
avoid this plague is to plant the asters
in new soils, lime the soil thoroughly
and give good cultivation from the
start.
The symptom of this disease is that
the bud remain greenish yellow and
does not unfold and develop it nor
mal color.
Stem rot and root aphis are other
peats. Lima or wood ashes applied to
the soil at planting time avoid these
troubles and copious doses of tobacco
tea of nicotine ohition poured about
the roots of the plants will destroy
the aphia,
Insect pests, which work above
ground, are more easily controlled.
The aster beetle cornea In August.
"What has my golden girl been do
ing all day?
"Fighting with your mother, most
ly," said Gloria with piercing sweet
ness. Dick looked miserable.
"And if yon want to make a bit
with me, youli never ask me to have
anything to do with her again," she
went on bitterly. "She's been bawl
ing me out for not doing my own
housework. I notice ahe keeps
maid, all right! And ahe had the
cheek to tell me I ought to go ahead
and have a whole family of children
. . . when she had only one herself!
bhe had three, you know . , . my
mother," he Baid at last. "The other
two died. I'm sorry you rowed with
her, Glory."
"That's right, blame it all on me
Glory replied. "It was she who
started it. I was having lunch with
May Seymour and she made me leave
the table and go borne with her .
and then started to tell me what a
terrible woman I am. So I just got
out of her darned old car. And you
can do as you please about it, but
I'm through with your family!"
Downstairs Maggie was striking the
Japanese dinner gong. It chimed like
the very voice of peace and har
mony. Gloria ran down to the dining room
to eat alone.
So this was marriage!
Facing an evening alone while Dick
dozed upstairs.
Doing her own housework begin
ning tomorrow? Helping Dick get
along, year after year? Losing her
looka in the meantime!
... Why she wouldn't be much
better off than her mother!
The only difference would be that
she, herself, would have a better
house and more money to run It with
. . . roast Iamb instead of stew, fresh
pens instead of canned ones!
Gloria pounded the table In her
anger and disappointment. . . . How
life bad tricked her! ... Well, she'd
get herself out of this mess, some
how! The next morning Dick was better
but too ill to leave the house.
Gloria snt beside him while he ate
breakfast before the bedroom fire.
"Dicky-bird," she said with all her
sweetness. "I'm going to hire a msid

finished. "So you are out for adventure. Well, how would yon
like to come up and see the fine grass house I have built?" "Fine,"
shouted Dotty and Jack in chorus. "Well," Btniled (heir newfound friend,
"Just follow me," And away he went.
Plant later types and this pest Is
eluded. Black or brown aphia, which
often infest the asters may bo dis
lodged with tobacco tea, dust, or nic
otine solutions sprayed on the plnnta.
They are easy to control.
Lime the coil two weeks before
setting out the plants, enough hyd rat
ed lime or pulverised limestone to
give it light coating like a light
snow, rake it in lightly, and then give
bone meal when the asters are -set
out and success a likely. The pests
need not deter anyone from growing
asters. If you had yellows last year,
plant the asters in a different soil
this year.

The other day the girls In a famous
eastern college took a secret ballot on
this question: Would you marry for
love or money?
And almost every girl who voted,
said frankly that she would marry for
money!
