How can he pose as a gentleman and a Christian if he refuses your plea for reconciliation? word now and then and regular evenings out would quiet your nerves nad revive your spirits. You would be even a better wife and mother, too. How little your man knows aobut women! I hope you will not have to give up your position, but if nothing else will move him, why not make the threat and act? (If you will leave this page on his chair tonight, he may see himself as others see him and be moved to justice and even kindness.) From what you say, you cannot burn the candle at both ends much longer; someâ€" thing will have to give way. You are not strong, you are underweight, and you are thoroughly dissatisfied, living without appreciation in the monotonous treadmill of your routine. Most men would be proud of a wife who manages the home and the children and holds down a job, too. You cannot change his temâ€" perament entirely, but a kind word now and then and regular evenings out would quiet your nerves nad revive WEARING OUT* Your â€" husband needs | a shock to wake him up to what is going on in his household. Why don‘t you tell him that unless he shares the chores he promised, and provides some occasional recreation, you will give up your position? That would be bad news for you both; though he will comâ€" plain loudly at your decision, the children‘s expenses will increase as they grow and with less money coming in, the brunt of the economic burden would still be yours. _ That was about the end of the| Forum, it being Stark street alâ€" rendy, but the fellow on the other | end of the back seat, with a couple| blocks to go yet, said he guessed | you could ride all the way to the | end of the line and back withont settling anything.

Better starve ‘em a little, and the first blossom that shows up, give it a good squirt of hormone to fool it into thinking a honey bee‘s been around, and you‘ll have the first tomato.

Those which en&\:.u are bridges connecting civilizaâ€" tions, countries and families, Since the printing press was invented and sketches as well as specifications could clarify the record, each generation has been studying history from many angles.

The 20â€"yearâ€"old student has the |title of "Miss Italy." Interest in fashion and style is just as evident in our own time as in the past, and there is much argument as to the dividing line between the two. An old book on ceramics, pubâ€" lished in 1880, makes a sound pronouncement: "Style is a mood or influence which is susâ€" tained, developed and disturbed by fashion. Fashion is a social and commercial fact â€" social because it arouses desire to be like one‘s fellows; commercial because there are profits to be made from this desire." From "Furniture for Your Home." by Gladys Miller. The Arabian horse is the only true thoroughbred " horse in the world today. This beautiful horse of the desert has been bred with out mixture for no less than 3,000 years, and oddly enough has two less ribs than other horses. It is interesting to note that both Wel: lington and Napoleon rode Arab horses at the Battle of Waterloo "How much sir‘" inquired \James Berrett Next morning he took the wallet to his room, removed a document, checked the notes, locked the wallet and put it down by the window. That was about ten o‘clock. He then went downstairs to the barber shop for a shave, but had to wait. When he returnâ€" ed an hour later he found the wallet cut open and the rotes gone. Marshall had come from Retâ€" ford, Notts, the previous evenâ€" ing with his wile. He it a leather wallet containing docuâ€" ments and the £12,000 in notes with the hotel clerk for safe keeping. When a detective is told so straightforward a story by a gmminom solicitor and J.P., he ces notâ€" immediately take . it for a pack of lies. But just as truth has an accent of its own, so has untruth. Berrett soon had the clear outline of the affair as present ed to him by the lawyer. about it or was somewhat taken aback. He had not expected to find a detective in his bedroom withâ€" in half an hour of reporting his loss. "Twelve â€" thousand _ pounds," boomed the ,lawyer. "Ten oneâ€" thousandâ€"pound notes and four fiveâ€"hundredâ€"pound notes." "Then the first thing I‘ll as you for is their numbers." Ber rett took out his notebook. "Then your clerk will have them > The real estate salesmen have an interesting life. No two days are alike. Salo in a Saturday Eve ning Post cartoon shows the realty salesman addressing the husband and wife in his office, "I do have something for $5,000. Would you like to ride out and see if it is still standing ?" "I haven‘t got them," admit ted Marshall. An efficiency expert was sent into the Colorado mountarins to advise the miners. One old miner was driving him through the snow and cold, so he spread a buffalo laprobe over the knees of both of them. And when he entered the bedroom of Mr. George Marshâ€" all to investigate the robbery, that portly and pompous solicitâ€" Then there was the realtor who took a prospect out to see one of those inexpensive ~>v homes, the kind that are compounded . of matchâ€"sticks, glue and putty. The prospect stood in one rooim the salesman in the other. The lat: ter whispered. "Able to hear me?" "Not very well." "Or see me?" "Xo." The realtor smiled. "Boy. ob boy, but them‘s walls for you." Said the efficiency expert: "You ought to turn the hair on the inside. Don‘t you know it‘s a great deal warmer to have the bair next to your body? The old miner obeyed and then sat there chuckling. Said the expert, "What are you laughing at me?" A few moments after it was made a tall, smartly dressed man left the station and walkâ€" ed rapidly in the direction of the hotel. Had you noticed him you might have thought that he was from the Foreign Office or, maybe, a bank manager. You would hardly have placed him as a detective from the C.LD. ©No," replied the miner. "I was just thinking about that buffalo. What a simpleton he was all his life not to know a thing like that," "That was the Metropole Hotâ€" el â€" there‘s been a robbery," said the duty sergeant at Canâ€" non Row Police Station, Westâ€" minster. Such calls were rouâ€" tine, causing little excitement, but this one was to prove inâ€" triguingly different. Jailed For Stealing From Himself! Realâ€"Estaters quite has been taken, the C.LD. man, will see Q. How should one take leave of persons to whom one has just A. You can say, "Goodâ€"by, I am very glad to have met you." To ene who has been especially interesting, or who is somewhat of a personage, you may say, "It has been a great pleasure to meet you." Q. When a woman is wearing gloves, should she apologize for not removing the right glove when she shakes hands? A. No; nor should she make any attempt to remove the glove. Q. If one is eating a steak or something similar, isn‘t it all right to cut several mouthfulls at a time before eating? A. No; one should cut a single bite at a time. Q. Is it ever proper to use the knife to cut the salad when dining? A. When it can be done easiâ€" ly, use just the fork. Sometimes, however, lettuce can be tough to manage, and in that case it is quite all right to use the knife. Q. If a man brings a gift when calling on a girl, should she open it immediately or lay it aside until he has gone? During that time, to meet pressing debts, the harassed soâ€" licitor began to gamble with the duke‘s money. If he could make money quickly, he could get himself out of the mess. A. She would most certainly show better manners and more appreciation if she opened it at once. Things were looking desperâ€" ate when Marshall came into contact with a short, snubâ€"nosed, voluble man who promised him the fortune he needed. Marshall had lived beyond his means. The Duke of Newâ€" castle had sold a property for £40,000 and instructed the soâ€" licitor to hold the money until further orders. No orders came for two years. "Invest with me, and you‘ll find yourself quickly the richer for it," he promised. ‘"There‘s nothing like gold mines and I control the finest in Western Australia." Months of work, hundreds of interviews, journeys to many towns were necessary before the whole story became plain. It was the old one â€" that of the embarrassed debtor who robs Peter to pay Paul. Q. Is it proper to tip the hotel doorman who lifts your bags out of the taxi to the sidewalk? ‘ A. No. Marshall practised with his brother, and one of their many distinguished clients was the Duke of Newcastle. All over Retford, Berrett found the name of Marshall to stand high. But he also found that George Marâ€" shall was living rather more lavishly than might be expectâ€" ed; and he came upon several people to whom the solicitor owed money. Q. Should a brideâ€"elect mail wedding invitations to friends of the bridegroom who are unâ€" known to her? Q. For how long should the bread and butter plates be left on the dinner table? Q. Is it correct to write a note wishing a girl happiness afâ€" ter reading the announcement of her engagement in the newsâ€" paper? A. Certainly; this is not only correct, but it is a thoughtful and gracious gesture of friendâ€" ship. "Not at all," shall, "he had needed !" A case for investigation thought Berrett â€" for the inâ€" vestigation of Mr. George Marâ€" shall. A. Certainly. She and her fiance should get together on the guest list before the invitaâ€" tions are ordered. A. Until it is time to serve the dessert. Q. Is it proper for a host or hostess to interrupt some disâ€" cussion among their guests? Then, â€" again, why was an open trunk untouched? The detective lifted the top garment. Just beneath was a small pile of sovereigns. "Curious, sir," he observed, "that the thief did not touch this A. Not if it is a friendly disâ€" cussion. However, if an embarâ€" rassing situation arises, or an angered ‘discussion seems imâ€" minent, the host or hostess should intervene with a quick change of subject. Berrett, _ gifted _ with â€" that sixth sénse without which no man makes a good criminal inâ€" vestigator, began to smell a rat There was no sign of entry anywhere. But there were curiâ€" ous aspects in the case. For exâ€" ample, he reflected, why should a thief cut the leather all round the lock to get at the contents when. he could have picked it up and carried it away? Thus the solicitor, who should Modernâ€" Etiquette... retorted Marâ€" taken all he have been more astute, fell for city of thousands to ruin. Whitaker Wright was under arrest, and creditors were pressâ€" ing on all sides on the day that My. Marshall set don with his wife. For now the duke wanted an accounting and his money had gone except six £1,000 notes. Desperate, banking on his high standing to escape suspicion, the hardâ€"driven gambler had faked the robbery. . George Marshall was duly arrested by Rerrett, and sent to jail. Starting, as all must, as a uniformed constable, James Berâ€" rett had not worn out his first pair of boots on the beat when he earned the coveted riband of the Royal Humane Society for a gallant rescue. Now, by 1926, bearded and looking just a bit like the late King Edward VII, it was Chief Inspector Berrett who went by fast car, along with Sergeant Harris, to assist the Essex poâ€" lice, following a request from the Chief Constable of that county. P.C. Gutteridge had been found shot dead in a lonely lane. That was fact No. 1. The Morrisâ€"Cowley belonging to Dr. Lovell, of Billericay, had been stolen some hours earlier. That was fact No. 2. Was there any connection? The answer came when the docâ€" tor‘s car was found abandoned in a Brixton passage. . Blood was on the running board, there was a dented mudguard, grass, dirt, and, more important, an empty cartridge case. Find the revolver from which that bullet was fired and we have the murderer, reasoned Berrett. And even as the thought crossed his mind a name flashâ€" ed up â€" Frederick Guy Brown. Brown was known to run a phoney garage and to deal in stolen cars. He also had a recâ€" ord as a violent criminal. NEW TWIST IN ART â€" A very real Parisian femme purzles over a very abstract statue of a nude in Paris, France. The statue, which could pass as "Miss Pretzel of 1956," is one of the exhibits at the 40th annual Decoration Artists‘ show. He was eventually arrested in his Battersea garage, and there the detectives found a loaded Webley, skeleton keys, a torch, jemmy and doctor‘s inâ€" struments. The full story of the hunting down of Brown and his drunken Irish partner, Kennedy, is long and involved and includes a flying visit to Sheffield. This journey was made by car. At Markham Moor, near Tuxford, Notts, a stgp was made ‘+ refuel. That receipt is now in the mu:â€" seum of Scotland Yard. It was a sheer coincidence, but as an omen it proved true, for Brown and Kennedy were both conâ€" victed and executed. They had forgotten the wellâ€"known rule of the underworld; Never kill a cop, or you‘ll have the whole lot on to you. From the bottom rung of the ladder to the top took James Berrett close on thirtyâ€"nine years to climb: When he retirâ€" ed, his burly, bearded figure was known to every crook in London. But none bore him a grudge, for "Gentleman" Berâ€" rett always played fair. He might have been a confounded nuisance at times, but he was always on the level. Because police officers have to render expense accounts, Berrett asked for a receipt for the payment for the gas. As the car moved off he happened to glance at it. "Well, here‘s an omen‘" he exclaimed a . moment | later. "Look at this!" At the bottom of the receipt the garage man had put his rubâ€" ber.stamp. It consisted of a galâ€" lows from which swung a corpse, and the words: Settled with thanks. for hardy. Kindhearted (and proviâ€" dent) stockmen who have E.\r. leanâ€"to shelters for their range horses have often found them after a bitter blizzard calmly grazing in the open, with no evidence of having entered the shelters. his peaceful pasture among the clouds, where he had been maâ€" welcomed with parades and brass bands. Elijah is a horse. Those concerned about Eliâ€" jah‘s sojourn mid the peaks ef Colorado‘s â€" Collegiate _ Range should be sorry for him only for one reason: His small pasture became snowed over and he got hungry. That need was met by humanitarian â€" humans with bales of hay dropped by airâ€" plane. But Elijah wasn‘t lonely. His owner ‘says he was always seeking spots "far from the madding crowd." And, hard for city dwellers to believe, he wasn‘t cold. Another considerate master built a tight house for his pet Samoyed dog, a breed whose thick white coat protects him from extremes of both heat and cold in his native Siberia. One night when the mercury hit minus 20 the master‘s conâ€" science smote him, and he went to bring his pet to the fireside. But doggie wasn‘t home. He was fast asleep out on the lawn. Perâ€" haps his doghouse got stuffy. EASY! EASY!
