violets was lying on her plate, and Marcia had the delightful sens-

onvying her as she sat down and caught up the violet; and thanked him with her eyes.

A good beginning to any dinner. And the food was good, and so was the wine. And David knew just how much love to make and how far to go. After dinner, Marcia suggested recklessly returning to tho flat. She told David to mix a drink, while she wont to get a little present she had for him. She fetched the coat with a vindictive smile.

As she came in David was mixing a. drink. He turned.

‘Marcia?’

“There!" she laughed, throwing the coat on the sofa. "There's your birthday present. David. And don't say I don't give you nice ones. ‘

“I say, Marcia." David picked it up almot rcverently. “What a marvelous coat! But you really shouldn't it's too good. Why ever did you?" '

David struggled into the coat. i Don was broader than he was and ‘ it hung rather loosely on him. But by pulling the belt very tight, v he made it fit him.

"You are a darling!" he said. “But terribly extravagant. Do you give all your friends such gorgeous presents?"

"No, only my special ones," dimp- led Marcia.

Then I must. be very special," i said David, undoing the coat and throwing it. back on the sofa. He came to Marcia his hands out- .' stretched.

“There's only one way of thank- ing you for a present like that," he said, and took her in his arms.

With a. horrid feeling of guilt Marcia. let him kiss her. She felt that not only had she been disloyal to Don, but deceitful to David. He must think she really cared for him, giving him such a. wonderful present. But all the while she

‘Of course you can-if you want Lo." He caught her again.

"Well, perhaps. Let me go, David, and finish your drink.”

He let her go reluctantly, and turned to his glass that he had put on the table.

As he did so, they heard the key turn in the lock oi’ the front door.

“Oh, that's Don!" said Marcia. looking rather nervous, and walking over to the mantlepiece. She knew Don would in annoyed finding David in the ht at that time of night.

I "Oh," he said in rather a. startled

lvoioe. Marcia swurm she did so the gauzy frills of her» . frock biliowed out, A huge bunch of pale Parmn -

roared up about her.

Before she could even scream,

Don had made a. grab for the coat, rushed to her, and flung the heavy thing round her, away, crushing her to him as he extinguished the flames.

"Darling. It’! all right. It's all right," he said hoarscly. as Marcia screamed. "They're all out. Bee Your're not hurt, are you?" He let the coat fall from the scorched and blackened rose-coloured frock, while Marcia. still clung to him.

David had not said a. word. Now he came forward with some hasty words of sympathy. But Don cut him short.

"Do you mind going, Oliver?" I want. to get my wife up to bed. She can't talk to you now."

David shrank back.

"Yes, of course, if I can't help," he mumbled.

"Here's your coat. Let me know if there's any dame-w." Don said, handing it to him. .

But Marcia sprang forward.

"No. no, it's not his!" she gasped, white-faced and wild-eyed. That precious coat how could she let it go!

"Not his " said Don in amaze- mcnt.

“No-no. . I'll . . . oh, I'll explain. Please go, David. I'll ex- plain . . . I'll—" She broke into hysterical crying. "

_Not troubling about: the amaze- ment on David's ioned him to go as he gathered Marcia up into his arms. When the door closed behind him Don

carried her to the sofa, and laid l

her down gently.

"You're all right, darling. I was in time," he said brokenly. “It's only just the frills. You're not hurt, are you?"

Marcia shook her head.

"No, I'm quite all right, Don . . . only I was so frightened. . . I thought-J‘

"Never mind. Lie still while I

; get you something to drink."

He went over to the table and brought back a. glass to her.

“Drink that, and you'll feel better, darling. he said.

"You have one too. It was a terrible shock for you too," she said, taking the glass. ,

He smiled and poured hinrelf out a. drink, came again and sat on the sofn beside her.

After a little silence Marcia be- gan:

"Don, I must tell yon-J’

He checked hex‘. “Don't; talk to- night, sweethcnrt. You can tell me everything in the morning. You've had a gasily experience, and you must get to bed."

“No," cried Marcia. "I couldn't possibly go to bed without telling you. Please, Don. Then I'll go . . . .but I shouldn't slecp—rcally I shouldn't."

"very well," he said to humour her. “Tell me." “It's our anniversary," began

Marcia.

"Damn!" said Don.

"It served me right," he amwered

‘No. it didn't. I was horrid. But if I'd never bought you the present . . . I-I might have been . . ." she shuddrred.

"What do you mean, darling?" he said, soothingly, wondering if the shock had made her lightheaded.

"Why, i‘. was the coat."

"The ccat—that coat?" Don said in astonishment. looking at it as it. lay on the floor.

“Ycs. I bought it for you. And I gave it to him. But 1' couldn't bear to part. with it. . . after- wards. It wasn't really his. It was yours."

Don got up and fetched the wonderful cont over, and knelt bc- rlde the sofa.

“Whct n marvellous coat, darl- ling! It's far too good for me!"

“It hasn't got burnt. has it?" she pulled it apart, and saw the severe marks of scorching on the fleecy lining.

"Oh. Don, it's spoiled! she cried. "Can we gct it cleaned?"

“It isn't. I wouldn't have the marks taken out from a thousand pounds. It'll always remind me. If I'd taken you out myself it would

never have happened. I don't think I shall ever forget again, darling!"

The winged moths t.‘ not feed, but during their biz. . life, which varies in length from z. f9“! days i0 a month, they deposit tiny. oval, pearly-white eggs. some- times as many as 150. among the hairs or meshes of the material on which the larvae later feed.

The eggs hatch in from a week to tcn days and the young larvae, which are very sensitive to light. seek out protected situations inthe folds of fur and woollen garments, or in the interior of upholstered iumiture. and commence feeding immediately. Clothes moth larvae have pearly-white bodies and pale brown heads. When mature they measure about one-half on an inch in length. The life of the larvae varies from a few weeks to as long as nearly two years, and they may be found in all the stages of devel- opment. throughout the year. As they fccd and grow, they-moult or shed their skins several timcs. The larvae of the two species differ markedly in their habits and thus

paper strips. Wrapping clothing in two thicknesses of strong wrapping paper, taking care to sec that the edges are turned so that no moths may gain entrance is also rccom- mended as an alternative measure. one pound of fresh napthrlena flakes or a similar quantity of par-

may be readily distinguished. The larvae of the webbing clothes moth move about freely and spin silken threads promlscuously on infested fabrics, often forming unsightly webs. They construct flimsy tube- llke silken shelters, into which they retire frequently and shed their skins, and finally pupate before the ‘emerge of the winged moths. Larvae of the case making species construct small cylindrical cases of tightly woven silk and fragments of the material on which they feed. Throughout their life they live within the case, and in feed- ing, protrude the forepart of the body and drag the case about with them. Eventually they pupatcwilh- in the cases and shortly afterward the winged moths appear.

The prevention of damage by clothes moths requires the exercise of care, forethought, and vigilance. Articles of clothing and other mat- erials subject to attack, should not be left undisturbed for long per- iods, particularly during th sum- mer months, in'such pl es as cupboards, attics. trunks, etc., un- less adequate precautions have been taken to protect them from moth injury. Such articlea,_,aftcr....belng thoroughly brushed and beaten. preferably in strong sunlight, should be placed in well made trunks or

adichlorobenzene scattered among the garments in an ordinary sized trunk assures perfect protection from moth injury. When using moth-bags several ounces of either of the above chemicals may be en- closed in each bag as an addition- al precaution.

Clothing that is not protected in the above manner should be ex- amined and carefully brushed at frequent intervals during the warm months of the year, or, if valuable. should be placed in cold storage. Articles of clothing already infest- ed with moths may be freed of the insects by placing them in a. tight trunk and fumigating with carbon bisulphide, preferably at a temper- ature of not less than 70 degrees F. This is done by placing a sau- cer on top of the clothing, pouring into it about three fluid ounces of carbon blsulphide, closing the lid tightly and allowing it to remain ‘closed for from 24 to 4B hours. Carbon bisulphidc vaporlzes into n poisonous, highly inflammable gas. heavier than air. Owing to its in- flammable and under certain con- ditlons explosive properties no flrc of any kind should be brought

tion is in progress. This fumlgant may be substituted for either car- bon tetrachloride alone, or ethylene
