band one evening towards the end OF the
honey moon.
''But they are not Io,0 people," quietly
remarked Sam, as soon as his wife's volu

are honest, industrious, well hammered
folks as any in The whole town"
"They are lo,0 people, relored the lady.
Didn't Mrs. Perkins mother sells nuts and

Mr.. Rogers"
Sam was pretty certain it was desper-
ale case, for his wife had only once before
honored him with this form OF address. He
stuck his hands, therefore, into his pockets

breeze upon his forehead. Accordingly, he

is spoiled in The beginning, for want OF ho>
ping and trying little longer.
Will Sans be spoiled is, however, the
question at present. | think not, for con

deal for his time OF life, he quickly made
up his mind what course TO adopt This
