MOL A SUCCESS.
A Now-Fang1cd Experiment. which Was
Not Entirely satisfactory.


just before Eckson and his wife start
cd on their bridal tour, Eckson said:
1--WE want to show people that all new
ly-married people are not silly.
"Yes, we do, Henry"
"Now, when we get on the train let
us not pay any attention to each
other"
"All right"
"We'lllcan apart from each other and
act as If we have been married for years,
won't wep" Al.
.'Ycs. Oh, tell you what would be
the funniest idea in the world, Henry
We'll take different seats, and after
awhile we'll get acquainted. Won't
that be nicep'
"First class; splendid"
When they boarded the train they
took opposite seats. Henry took up a
newspaper, and Mollie looked at the
wavering landscape. After awhile
Henry looked up, and saw the conduc-
tor sitting with Molle. Henry chuck
led. ''Thinks she's in love with him, ]
reckon" the bridegroom mused. "Be-
lieve I'll 90 forward and take smoke. :"
His cigar must have been unsatisfactory,
for he soon threw it away and resumed
his seat opposite his wife. The con-
ductor was telling an amusing story.
and Mollie was laughing gleefully. She
did not even look at her husband.
"This is playing it little too fine"
Henry mused. II like 10 see good act
ing, but she acts little too we'll"
The train stopped at n station, and
the conductor got up and went out. bu t
returned Immediately, and again sat
down by Mollie. just then a young
woman came along and asked Henry if
she could share his seat. He gladly
consented, musing that he could play
even with his wife. A few moments
later, while he was busily talking, he
saw, with sweetened thrill of revenge,
that his wife was looking at him. AT
the next station the young woman got
off the train, and when the conductor
went out, Henry sat down by Mollie.
Il don't know what you want to sit
down here for, she snapped. "Why
didn't you get off the tran with"
"What do you want to talk that way
for. precious?"
"Precious nothing. Go on, l dom
want you here"
IL suppose you would rather talk to
the conductorp"
"I'd rather talk to anybody that will
treat me with respect.
Now, darling
"Darling nothing. I'm going to get
off the tram and 90 home, that's what
I'm going to do. I'm not going to live
with you, that's what amt, and when
pa asks me why, Tn going to tell him
that YOU did not treat me with respect.
You don't love me and never did. You
used to let on like you did but you don't
even do that any more.
"Mollie--"
"Mollie nothing. Go on, l don't
want you here"
Now, don't be foolish. You know
how you carried on with the conductor.
Never saw him before, either"
The mischief l haven't. He's my
uncle. was going to introduce you to
him, but I didn't want him to know
that we were married until just before

"But do. Don't you love me just a
little?"
"Yes, more than you do me-"
"No."

"No, you don't, precious"
"Yes, do, darling"
"If these people were not looking I'd
kiss YOU" Henry, after short silence,
remarked:
"It's none of their business"
"Put your head on my shoulder

He put his arm around her, and wher
he thought that no one was looking

it to Henry, and said:
"It's yours. Take it,"

"But you have earned it."
81 won't have it,"
The man threw the cake on the sea-
and, as he made break for the forwar
