' "No—the office is still going on—" he said hesitatingly. Then with del- iberation:- "I've quit, that's all." She ,swung round in her chair, and picking up her sewing for a minute or two she busied herself with her stitching. Wardell stood opposite her, watching the flying needle and appar- ently thinking of nothing else. "Weil,'" she said finally, wthout locking up, "what do you mean, you quit Have you a new job or did somebody hand you a million dollars? - Don't forget that rent day comes the first of the month --and I'm not going to hand out one cent of the money I've saved.

I'll still do so." lie turned on dis heel and went quickly from the room. Madeline Wardell—Mad, as most people whoknew her intimately called ser—went on with her sewing. She was uttons on a new chose, aputting d ns shthee she -deeded that, unless she were it, she could not go to -lee card party that evening, it was a case of hurry. Her thoughts kept pace with the needle. Had Guy sud- denly only gone crazy?. Dear items she had often thought him odd—but this was the limit—walking home and say- ing that he had quit his job. Had he done it just to be mean to her? An unhappy crisis in their lives had trade her believe that the man she had mar- ried was quite capable of being mean to her, Por months her mind had been an the defensive, ready to find • and exult over any flaw that shower] on Guy's character. "If he won't support me, I'll go right home to my people," she thought --and the idea pleased her. She even began to mentally tabulate what she would take with her • in the way of elothing. She was still tabulating when her husband returned to the room. "Mad," he said quickly. "Mad— den't you feel different these days? Different towards me—different to- wards the whole world? Different to-, wards yourself?" "How could I help but feel different towards you, you act so crazy?" "It's the spirit of the times. We're only mirroring in ,our lives what is happening everywhere. The unrest is general." She looked up at him—puzzled. "Say, are you crazy?" "No, only in revolt." "Ohl Like the Bolsheviks?" "Not 'exactly," he laughed. "Though I dare say that they have been more or less responsible. You see, Mad, I've been thinking about this all winter— abent how I hated to go on with the grind --the getting up in the morning, getting dressed in the same set. of clothes, catching the seine interurban for War -re -lee :halls every week -day morning, sitting in the sante chair at the same desk, making out bilis for the same goods to the slime people.

When I I saw some of the patches the men had spaded, I got to thinking it over: It seems to me that those gardens are the greatest reason why the strikers aren't in any hurry to get back to the mills. It's because they're working out of doors, under the shy, instead of in the roar of the machines, When I went out to lunch, I walked down to I thepark. You know: they're leaving a community garden there—and the men were all helping," "Do you really think you'd like to • work in the fields?" Mad was not eom- plaining now. She was questioning— 's/le was thinking very rapidly. "When I got back from lunch the place was deserted." Wardell ignored his wife's question. "There wasn't a thing to do—there hasn't been any- thing to''do for two' weeks. The atrike has settled that. So I sat theretlmok- ing out in the sons:inine--and• thinking —thinking—of what it must be Niko i up at the Point" The Point was a long arm of land that stretched itself into the north- east coast of Georgian Bay. There the earliest Wardells had settled and there Guy still held' ownership to some thirty or forty acres of land and a more or less dilapidated house, half stone, half timber. They both loved • the old farm—it was their place of va- cationing. "It .must be, spring up there now," continued Guy wistfully, "and my cousin, John Baker, told me last year that if the small fruit was cared for, if the apple trees were looked after, that the old place ought to make a good financial return." He looked keenly at his 'wife, but she gave no sign. And themoreI've thought of it, the stronger my sense of revolt against this life grew. Finally to -day I. knew that I couldn't stand it any longer. I knew that I.couldn't stay -in. four walls—I don't eare if it will .hurt the business at the mill—I don't care if President McTne gets road—I don't care for anything. I've` thrown over all the old life, and I'm going up to the Point and start to live. We've not lived." For several seconds Mad did not answer, "I wonder," she said slowly. "Wonder what?" he questioned sharply. "About starting life over again. It sounds so easy—but law and order—" "I'm not talking about law and order. I'm not upsetting law and order." "Yes, you are—upsetting the order of a big ;business by welkin. out. .1 don't know whether it's right or wrong•—.but--do you want me to come to the. Point with you?" . • "Want you?

"In fact, ° I'd thought of -how -you'd probably go home to your people. .1. didn't think that you'd—at least, I feared—" "That I'd come with you?" she fin- ished his sentence. "Well—I will. It'll be a change from this life. You see, I'm in revolt with you." CHAPTER I.

Every apple tree was bright with budding blossoms. An occasional cherry tree still held bloom. Along the hedges before the homes ot'the farmers were bushes of brilliant lilacs. birds of every description hurried with their nest -making, and here and there a squirrel or chipmunk, venturesome after the long winter's sleep, sat in- quiringly on the stone wall and watch- ed them in their muddy progress. The shouse was in more than fair conddtion and the ground was rich. Guy had written his cousin., John Baker, a pros- perous yotmg fernier, asking to have his best field &lowed and harrowed and this he knew had been done. The planting could start at once. It was not from this four or five acres of land that they epected to make their • expenses' but from the fruit which Guy know would bring a. good price at the village cannery.. Years before, when Guy had ,been a boy in his middle teens there had. been wonderful etrawiberry beds, hedges of black and red rasp- berries adid small fruit time, plumbs, pears, quinces, to say nothing -of the orderly rows of apples of every var- iety, Now there ,was mostly under- brush, though the past years had told them that the fruit was of a finer var- iety than the ordinary wild fruit.

' There were other men who would have lilted to console that par- ticular widow. They had bank ac- counts and steady jobs and income property and pleasure cars; while this wight was a better spondee than he was an earner, and his only piece 'of property was mortgaged. But the widow passed over the substantial qualities of her other admirers, -and married the man who was always cheerful. • That was five years ago, and I've been watching the outcome of the marriage. Reluctantly I've had to ad- mit that sbe made the better choice, for the man still keepscheerful; still supplies her with the 6,mpiinents her soul craves, and still keeps her happy. They are little better off financially than`"they were five years ago, he is one of the many who didn't profiteer by the war. They have managed to keep up, but not to get ahead, but as they look at it, getting ahead doesn't count. The main thing is that the home at- mosphere is always sunny. And after all, isn't that the supreme proof of a successful life? What good is money if it 'can't buy you happiness and laughter? Why have houses and good furniture and automobiles if they just bring lines between your eyes, and add to your cares and• anxieties? After all, it isn't the things which we poss- ess that brake its ha spy or unhappy. It is the spirit in which we approach life. And the woman who married for good cheer instead of for money show- ed her good judgment. ' I believe it was Johnson who said, "It is with a thousand pounds a year to be able to look on the bright side of things," No matter who said it, he could have inuitiplied that thousand by a 'thousand, and not made it too much. The power of being cheerful, not because we, foolishly ignore con- ditions, but because we refuse to be conquered by conditions, is worth more than all the wealth -in the world, And it is a power that all too few peo- ple possess. There are two sorts of cheerfulness, and we often fail to difl'erentiate one from another. There is the cheerful, ness of young children, who knowing no troubles, are filled with laughter. This sort is sheared by some .adults who either lack the power to see condi- tions which do not affect them directly or seeing them, take the attitude that it is none of their affair, or that 1t is the will of God, and therefore should not affect their happiness. And there is the better forme of cheerfulness, which seeing and knowing the misery in the world, resolutely sets itself against discouragement and keeps cheerful in spite of conditions which cannot be overeome, It is this cheer- fulness which we should all cultivate as a protection against the petty irri- tations- of every -day lifer It is the only thing which can keep us from growing pessimistic, morbid, intro- spective, and can save us from failing into a loveless old age. Little annoyanees are bound to come to all' of us. No one can count on a 'life free of the daily grind of little things which vex and annoy. But we can lessen the pin pricks if we take them good naturedly, if we cultivate• smiles instead of frowns, laughs, in- stead of groans, determined to be of good cheer, no -matter -what comes. Autumn Recipes. Sauerkraut can be Trade of surplus cabbage, and from 'small or burst heads. Strip the outer green leaves from each head and slice thinly into a clean stone crock or wooden keg tat .has been scalded out. There are cheap hand slicers available 'for this, or the cabbage may be shaved into thin slices with a knife. The finer the slices the better the. quality, The container must be absolutely water- tight, for kraut will be spoiledbythe brine leaking away. As the finely sliced cabbage is placed in the con- tainer, it should be pounded down with a clean stink; to secure a corepact mass and to force out the juice of' the cabbage which is to form a protective covering against decay. Fine salt must be added at the rate of one pound to forty of sliced cabbage. This will also help to draw the water out of the cabbage. When the container is near- ly full, the kraut should be covered with a clean piece of boatel, and weighted down so that the juice com- pletely covers the cabbage. Kraut should be stored in a cool place and, if'ntadc in the summer time, it is wise to seal the top of the container with paraffin..

Only in this way is it possible to know with certainty the exact conditions de - mending treatment. Above all, it is necessary to know whether or not any abscesses lie con- gealed in the gums. For these, as science has only of late discovered, are a fruitful source of many miseries. There "is an old saying to the effect that "what one does not know will not hurt him." Btet this idea certainly does not apply to abscesses at the roots of the teeth, which may long exist unsuspected. Abscesses rarely form at the roots of live teeth; but often it happens that a tooth dies, and no notice is given of the fuuerai. Or, perhaps, the nerve has been intentionally killed. •I11 either cage it is a dead one, and an 'abscess is quite likely, Sooner or later, to r Theform Xat-rayits sh000t,ws up such an abs- cess clearly. It appears on the "slhad- owgraph" film as a dark spot. Then the tooth should be pulled without de- lay. Every such abscess is a germ fac- tory.

These germs are liable to lodge in the joints, where they proceed to, treed, feeding on the tissues and. thereby engendering inflanunations. As a result, there is rheumatism, with its attendant pains, and perhaps even- tual deformation of the bones, if 111e. trouble 1e prolonged and severe. Until within the last few years den• Gag made no inquiry in regard to• absoesses•in the guins, save In cases where they cageed so much local dis- comfort as to render the pulling of a tooth necessary.
