MARTYRS OF SUBURBIA
By PRANK FILSON.

: (Copyright. 1314. by W. Q. Chapman
: Young Mrs. Raleigh cast a furt
look alter her husband as he dis
peared at a run round the corner
the lane. Then she sank down lnt<
chair and had a good cry.
They had been married a mon
and were in full possession of th
suburban home. ,
*When we are married, dear, we *
live In the country," her husband fa
said to her. "No noisy, grimy c
streets for us."
"Yes, dear," Dora had answer
"And we will have chickens and ro
trees?" (
Of course, it was possible to proci
help from town?not locally, since
' the girls drifted into the factory, fl
miles away, by the screech of whc
whistle the Raleighs set their watch
But maids would not stay; they g<
erally set down their bags, sniff
and took their departure. So you
Mrs. Raleigh did her own cooking a
1 sweeping.
The chickens died of the pip, 1
cept three, which died of the gap
and one, a rooster, which Dora b
subsequently seen in the backyard
Henry Foulkes, the colored man w
tried to make the vegetables grc
The~~fclectric light bill was twice
high as they had calculated, and g
seemed to cost a dollar a cubic foot
No wonder Mrs. Raleigh had a go
cry before she started seeding the g
oat of the local grocer's seed
raisins!
The hardest thing was to put on
expression of cheerfulness when Hen
oame home. That night'she dried 1:
eyes and practiced a welcome am
; until she could do no better. Th
he sat under the honeysuckle w!
her garden hat on, which was the w
her husband liked to see her.
i When at last she saw him comi
up the lane she was surprised at 1
dejected look. And there was no dot
about It?Henry positively slouched
The minute he came within a ston
: throw of the front door the slouch d
appeared. He appeared spry a
springy. He positively reeked wl
enthusiasm.

'' "Finely, dearest," answered Mrs. I
lelgh. "There Is a chance of getti
a maid next week, too. Uncle Jo

strength. She has been somewhat r

wife concluded.
1 They ate their dinner in silence. 4
evil thought was growing rapidly

cheerful oil stove and stretched <
j their hands to the blaze.

shamefacedly, "I had lunch wl

t: for a country jay. Naturally he does
i understand. If he could come hoi
and see you under the honeysuckle"It
will be fine when It blooi

"And the clematis has positivi
grown. I measured it yesterday, a
'it is an inch longer than .when we i

i "Yes, and having lobster supp<

ifully.

fully that should anything happen j
th? her soldier boy who had gone to tl
e*r front she would take off his ring ai
dispose of it.
"u "It will only be a constant remin

Ity "and If the battlefield claims me yc
'will forget me the quicker withoi
ed- ithat ring."

M dian relics and historical gems of a
'raa kinds. These were being sold for t$
queen's fund, apd many a treasrn
0(1 had been sent when perhaps the sen
rIt er had not even a shilling to offer. !
e<J ; Ethel gazed longingly at some <
the jewelry. It was one of her hoi

The new ring was wonderfully daint

A few days later she motored doff

^ of driving down In her luxurious ca

long, bracing drives.
ier ! The day that Jimmy Thorpe w?
110 lifted Into the Beat beside her was,
ie- most exciting one for Ethel . S)>

1 POLLY PERKINS
I' . i !'
By CATHERINE COOPIS.
a-' (Copyright, 1914, by the McClure Newapa
per Syndicate.)
at No one -would have stigmatizei
m Polly Perkins as being insane Ec
h- < centric, mentally unbalanced] she cer
to' talnly was and another ' couple o
ie j years might possible see hex com
id' fortably ensconsed in a home for in
I curables. For the present she wai
j.' happily If whimsically domiciled ii
&' a tiny cottage on Lon? Island . Misi
)U Polly's mental state was -the caus<
of rude jests from village c];illdrei
and one of amused Interest to oldei
jl minds. Week-end guests wero sun
!t, to be taken past the abode oi Poll]
h Perkins just as they were lnvnriabl]
iy regaled by. the story of the hauntet
It house on the old farm road.
"She's dippy on the subject o
,s pink," said Jimmy Rogers us , h<
k strolled past Miss Perkins' cottfigi
l(j with Bob Hawthorne after a awln
l(j in the Sound. . ,
j. "I wouldn't , have believed it,'
laughed Hawthorne as he eyecL witl
l(j amused glance the pink-painted cot
l8 tage, the pink flower gardens, ?plnl
Le gate posts and outbuildings. "I sup
a. pose she has pink bows on all .tin
,* live stock," he commented.'
Q. "She purely has," chuckled Jimmy
II "every living chicken In the bainyah
ie has a pink bow on his neck."
>e It was not uratU a few daya lata]
j. that Hawthorne, lolling In Jimmj
Rogers' hammock, looked up to set
jf a lone chicken clucking away an<
^ pecking contentedly for vermin, ii
lt Rogers' well-kept lawn. The diickca
g had a more or less bedraggled plnl
d bow on its neck that sadly Interfered
Lt at times with the capturing of data
ties from the soft sod.
e And because Bob Hawthorne was i
ir trifle bored with his own society am
jj more or les carious regarding th<
p. eccentric Miss Perkins, he decidod t(
e make a martyr of himself and tak<
,j the straying bird home.
e He had little difficulty In catching
the chicken. Evidently Miss Perkins
n hens were more fn the nature oi peti
n than table delicacies. ,
I After * few moments of recount
y terlng he ^discovered thait & irtiig o1
0 Miss Perkins' property practically ad
joined that of Jimmy Rogers. H<i
n climbed the tatter's fence and fount
It himself facing the back of a plnl
up ' chicken coop. A sharp turn . aroun<!
ir the fence brought him Into the nwk
ward position of having tripped ovei
n a pink-clad figure. She wis lying: flal
a upon her back In the tail grasses
Q "You've no right to be snoring ir
q that wet grass," he said.
d "I was not snoring, and the graBs if
a as -dry as a bone," the girl said witt
asperity. She had arisen to a sitting
e posture and was'endeavoring to coai
y back the frightened chicken. "I don't
1 know., why?all men think that eren
I place of grass in the universe .lis con
d tinually wet" v. ,
j. She had got the chicken back: bj
? continued coaxing, the while she wai
a. addressing her remarks to Itaw
thorne.
n "Are you Miss Polly Perkins V'\ he
asked,, when her wide-open eyes aijiaiE
? roamed toward his face.
i. "Yes, I am," she said. 'Is tliew
nvililna' alna Vrni vntllll HVfl tn VmW
Rude Person?" she inquired. "Yoc
I. know," she continued, 1 am not
y the Miss Polly Perkins you think 1
e am. I am her niece." With that she
^ turned swiftly on her heels and f.etft
0 Bob Hawthorne standing beside the
e pink chicken coop.
5 "You know," she confided to him
e two nights later when they leit the
^ club house after a most delightful
e tango evening, "X have a dreadful
j confession to make." Since Bob'fl
J yes were anything but fear insplrig,
Polly continued: "I saw you
pneaklng down to Aunt Polly's chick^
en coop and deliberately jut that bird
over the fence so that you might
e see it"
e "Are" you engaged?" asked Bob
bluntly.
d "No?Rude Person," laughed Polly.
"Then prepare for the worst soon,"
said Bob, possessing himself of the
0 slim fingers that he had watched
jealously caressing the pink-bowed
chicken.
q "For the best," contradicted PoUj
d ??ftly.
