a VERY NICE WIFE.

How She Cured Hubby of Spending His
Evenings at the Club.
certain young man, married and
living on Brady street in this city, sat
down to convivial game Of cards with
some friends at their hotel, says the De-
troit Free Press, and before he knew it
the hour was early in the small figures.
What should he do2 He had never
stayed out 80 late, or rather so early,
since he was married, and he dreaded
meeting his wife and explaining the
matter to her.
Ring up the ambulance" he said to
one Of his friends, land take me home
and tell my wife I fell down the Office
stairs and have just recovered conscious
ness"
But his friend, who had been in the
same fix, braced him up and told him to
go home and have 1t out like man.
So he went homo whistling noisily to
keep up his courage and found the front
door unlocked for him. So far so good.
Then he went upstairs and peeped into
his wife's room.
"B-r-r~r-r, b-r-r-r-r, b-r-r-r-r--" His
wife was fast asleep and snoring like q
steam engine.
! He slipped out of his coat into dress
ing gown, drew off his boots and turned
up the lamp. Then he took up the
evening paper and began to read. In
few moments his wife wakened.
"Are you never coming to bed,
Charlie?" she asked, in sleepy voice
Gas soon as finish this article, dar-
ling" he answered, in thankful voice.
That was six months ago. Charlie
has never repeated his late hours, but
he has wondered ever since IL his wife
wise woman-was really asleep, or If she
was only shamming.
