HER HUSBAND A MODEL,
And That He Was SO Caused an
Awkward Question.

From the Chicago Tribune.
1t was at a womans luncheon, and
they had been exchanging opinions in
regard to the husband question both as
a whole and with particulars. BY the
time ice cream was served the discus
sion had grown quite heated, and the
hostess was beginning to look anxious.
At the top of the table the woman in
the chiffon vest and her companion in
the ur-trimmed gown were at daggers
drawn.
"Wcll, l don't care what any one
says, my husband is as good as they
make them" said the woman in the
chiffon dress excitedly. He always
rocks me to sleep when have sick
headache, and he gets breakfast when
the cook is away, and he always gets
up in the night if the baby cries!" She
glared at the woman in the fur-trim-
med gown triumphantly, and she in
turn glared back and took up the para
BILE of speech.
well, my husband" she remarked,
with strong accent upon the possess
i've case, "neVer does any of those
things; I should be sorry to see him
do any of them. l detest man who
steps over into his wife's province.
But he always looks after the furnace,
and 1 never have to worry about the
coal bill"
The woman in the chiffon vest smiled
disagreeably, and the hostess was about
to interpose when the pretty woman
at the foot of the table spoke up.
my husband does all the thing you
have mentioned" She said, sweetly,
land lot more. When we have no
girl he washes the dishes and sweeps,
and I've never had to get dinner once
since we've been married. ] always
knew he was going to be so lovely
that way, because he said so little
about it. I never had much faith in
the mGn that talked so much. When
we were first married we talked about
it, and he spoke beautifully. L don't
say I'll always do it, Jennie he said,
the first time 1 was without q girl;
but I'll always help And he's baen
better than his word right along. Last
night he even made the porridge, Sc it
would be ready for breakfast this
morning and every morning he brings
me a cup of coffee before I get up" ;
With the smile of a conscious con-
queror she toyed with her menu card
and smiled sweetly at the angry wo-
man at the other end OF the table.
They were speechless, but the woman
in the gold-rimmed glasses, who sat in
the middle, gave her a keen look and
smiled, too.
Something has got to be done for
the protection of us poor spinsters,'
she said, merrily land If anyone else
tells husbands story 1 shall retaliate
with a tale regarding a vondarfII "a Z
which possess. But, first, before we
cult the subject, let me ask a question.
How long" turning to the pretty wo-
man, "have you been married."
The pretty woman blushed vlvidly.
Nearly two weeks" she stammered
out timidly, and the other women
laughed in the unfeeliug manner they
so often affect.

When Robert Burns died the follow

the 2lst inst, died at Dumfries, after
an lingering illness, the celebrated
Robert Burns. His poetical compost

force Of native humor, by the warmth
and the tenderness of passion, and by
the glowing touches Of a descriptive
pencil, will remain a lasting monument
of the vigor and versatility of a mind
