It is this: Every time my hus- band's birthday rolls around his sister gives him a birthday present. but she doesn't give me one. i do makes me mad because she shouldn‘ she doesn't givc one in me. This causes :1 int of_h-.1rd icclill bf the problem? n’t give her a present either, but it t give a prescnt to my husband when g alui quarrels. What do you think PUZZLED ANSWER: If you and your husband had the same birthday. it would, of course, be obligatory for your slster-in-law to send presents to both of you. but such is not the case. for a gift would apply if both you The same rule of returning a gift 1' family and your husband's family had the custom of celebrating birthdays. But inasmuch as you state that you and your husband never make presents. you haven't any good exc use for grlping about your sister-in- iaw not sending you a birthday gift. Evidently you are a trouble-bor- rower, one of the women who can her 40 mattresses of’ ease. find the‘ crumpled rose leaf‘ under DEAR MISS DIX: Please tell me how to cope with a husband who on one day professes his love for me and on the next tells me that he hates me. I am a good cook and housekeeper and do everything to lease him. but in the 25 years I have been married to him I have never een able to do it. What would you advise ma to do‘? A FAITHFUL WIFE ANSWER: lf you have stood that sort of domestic martyrdom for a quarter of a centllry. I should think you would be so hardened to it that you wouldn't know his good spells from his bad spells. - My suggestion to you is to keep your bag packed and, whenever he gets on one of his hate sprees, to leave home until he cheers up. llappy-Go-Lucky Mrs. gh Smith CHAPTEEV Tony and Barbara. had planned to be married very quietly. They intended to go down to the rec- tory Friday afternoon with a cou- le of witnesses and make their ‘ rows in front of the old clergyman who had known Barbara all her life, but. everybody from Tony's mother to Champ I"ield's wife op- posed the idea. - "You can't do that," said Nora fields. Like her husband, she was Nora was also fond of Tony. She came down to the office quite often. Shehad been a newspaper woman herself before her marriage. "Im not go- ing to let you sneak off and gel married," she told Barbara firmly. "Every woman ought to have a wedding to remember for the rest o! her life." ‘Thank you," skid Barbara, her eyes misting. "But I couldn't have a wedding. Elmo's nobody to 8W0 me one." "I'll look after that." said Nora Fields. From that point she took charge of proceedings. The time was short. but when Nora under- took a thing, she saw it through. After several telephone conversa- tions with Tony's mother, who had be:- own ideas about how and where her only son should be married, it was decided that the wedding should take place at the church on Friday afternoon at three o'clock. followed by s in- lormal reception at Nora's. “Why all the fuss and bother?" groomed Tony. However, once oom- mittcd, he did not actually mind. Champ Fields gave Barbara a’ icy off before the wedding. Nora Today's Bargain in GAIIEII Slllliil saw to that. Nora also helped Bar- bara shop for her trousseau. Bar- bara was slightly panicky when she saw what inroads the trousseau made upon her savings. She was more worried than she cared to admit about the reckless manner in which Tony was spending the wedding and a dashing new hat. and he insisted on buying Barbara a_ platinum wedding ring set with diamonds. ;'It'.s beautiful." sighed Barbara when he showed it to her, "only we could have done with a less ex- pensive one." "Nopef said Tony, squeezing her hand, “we couldn't. You see it's money. l-le bought a new suit for ‘ LEGENDS 0F Continued from Page l had occurred. . Toward late afternoon of the second day, Mr. W.’a pick struck an object that was not rock or earth or metal. Great excitement spread through the little 'mup of miners and they worked feverish- ly to clear away the loose earth. Finally they uncovered the open- ing to a shaft. with a flight of wooden steps leading downward. John Lathers, with pistol in hand, was the first to go down. He was immediately followed by Mr. W. and another gold seeker whose name the writer has not been able to learn. When the three reached the“ foot of the stairs all was as black as night, and they shouted to their companions above to throw down some candles. When a light was struck they saw themselves standing beforeths entrance of a narrow passage that appeared to lead out under the river bed. The three advanced cautiously and in silence: something about the underground passage fil- led their hearts with an unknown fear. There might he enemies lying in wait for them. or there might be spirits guarding the 'gold. "indeed. anything could happen in such a weird subterranean tunnel. The three drew close together as they continued to explore the passage. They had covered about a hun- dred yards when the passage took a sharp turn toward the left and away from the river. They were just making the turn When a crest blast of air swept them full in the face. extinguishing the three candles simultaneously. To add to their fears. a shpt rang out. causing bits of loose earth to fall from the ceiling and walls. But the shot had come from Lathers‘ gun, He was holding the weapon at full cock when the gust of wind entered the cave and its force ad thrown ‘his hand against the all. thus discharging thewveapon. Now that the other two knew the source of the shot. they were some- what reassured: but what had caus- ed the gust of violent wind? Where had it come from’! While this discussion was taking place. a low. moaning noise reach- ed their ears. It was like some- body suffering great pain. For the space of seconds the men stood and listened. The sound came a second time, but much louder. The meaning was followed by some incoherent words that end- _ed in hysterical laughter. That was enough. Quickly the three retraced their steps. groping their way through the dark palsage as best they could. Twice more the strange blasts of air swept down upon them. almost throwing them to the ground. Then, as they reach- ed the foot of the stairway. the entire passage collapsed behind them with a deafening roar. The men who waited above saw got to last you for the rest of your life, sugar." Nora Fields insisted that Ber- bara come over to her house ear- ly the morning of the wedding. "A bride doesn't want to be alone in a boarding house on her wedding day," said Nora. “She needs some- one to make o. fuss over her." Tony was in and out all morning, consulting Nora about this and that. kissing Barbara every chance. he got. Apparently he did not have a care in the world. His mother and sisters were arriving shortly before noon. He was tak- ing them to the hotel for lunch, but he took them to meet Bar- bara. first. “Here she isi" he cried geyly. “Isn't she the tops. Mums?" Tony's mother was frail-looking. She had dovelike gray eyes and white hair. She was wearing a lavender silk dress and a small to- que made of violets. "How do you d". my dear?" she murmured and then added with a little break in her voice. “you must take good cl-re of my eon. Barbara. He's all I've got." Barbara thought that rather hard on Tony's sisters, but they were used to existing at the edge of Tony's limelight and they ador- ed hlm and thought nothing too good for him. Lily was the born spinster — angular. self-sacrificing g and, like her mother, lavishly de- voted to her half brother. Barbara thought the little sister was a. dsr- ling. She had bronze eurls and dlmplell. She clung to Tony's three badly scared, wild-eyed fel- lows climbing the stairs pell-meil. "What's all the rush about?" they iquestioned. "You fellows look as if you'd seen a ghost." "Didn't you hear that awful noise?" asked the others. "Not us.“ said their spokesman. "Up here everything was as silent as sunset." - ' When the strange yarn had gone the rounds. every last one of them nulled stakes and left the 'placs forever. Tradition says that for many years the steps leading to the mys- terious passage lay exposed to all who went to visit the spot. But the secret passage. where the moan- ing voice, mingled with the rushing wind, almost scared three gold seekers out of their wits. was never seen again by mortal eye. loose in that subterranean passage? To this day the mystery remains unsolved. The next story: Todd's Hollow.” "Murder At she said. -"I,mesn.
