do at this season of the year. There
isn't any excuse for your saying that
you ant afford to give me few dollars
for presents this year. It's high time

too. Suppose you let me have a check
for q hundred dollars in the morning,

"a check for what?" asked Mr. Breezy,
looking up suddenly.
"Only hundred dollars to start with, ["
said Mrs. Breezy, putting her thread .
little through her work.
"A hundred dollars to start with?"
calculated Mr.. Breezy. "Start what?"
That's all the attention you ever pay

II suppose you haven't heard a word
I've been saying. DO put down that
ever asting newspaper and pay lite
attention to your wife for once in your

a hundred-a hundred and fifty dollars

"You just said hundred" said Mr..
Breezy.

well afford to give me few hundred
dollars for Christmas presents, aud the
man who has met with the luck you
have this year in politics should not
kick-pbject to giving his. wife little
Christmas money. You wouldn't think
anything OF spending three or four hun
dred dollars on vile liquors and cigars
for your-your constituents, as you call
them, but when your wife asks you for
half that sum"
suppose we return to the origina nj
estimates and call 1t an even hundred?"
said Mr.. Breezy, pulling out his check

"Do you suppose I can get along with
q miserable hundred dollars?" cried MIRA
Breezy. "Why, your present alone will
cost nearly that. Yes, / expected to

used off San Diego, Cal. Incandes-

the net is hauled up. The catches
