wife is, came home one afternoon from
Washington, and found her just re-
turning from a round OF visits. ''Well,
my DEAR" he inquired, "where have
you been to day?'' "Out making party
calls" she replied, with very appar-
ent satisfaction. "Party calls,'' he
repeated, in puzzled interrogation.
ayes, colonel, party calls" He studied
over it for minute. "Now, look here,
Maria,'' he said earnestly, "let up on
that. You attend to society, and
leave the party to me. You don't
know anything about politics, even if
you are in Washington with me; and,
if you get to doing any party work,
you'll make tangle of it, sure" And
then Maria gave the colonel a laugh
that made him wonder what he was
there for.
