was almost blank to him. He remembers
being in England and Australia and knows
that he sold washing machines in Man
chester. He does not know under what
means he has been sailing, nor how he as
gained an existence. Until informed he did
not know whether he had been absent a
month or twenty years. He had saved some
money
Coming from Liverpool to Montreal in a
cattle-boat it suddenly flashed upon him
who he was and where he used to live He
made haste TO reach Pennsylvania, and in
Binghamton, N. Y, a railroad man told
him that his former wife and children were
still living. Riding in the railroad coach
something told him to carry "home" the
meat to procure which he had left home
fifteen years before.
After being convinced that Woodbridge
story was true, he was given shelter. There
has since been a complete reconciliation
and the wife and widow win soon be mar
ried again to the husband of her youth,
thus making the curious record of three
weddings to two husbands.
Kansas City has at least one young mar

awakened out of a sound sleep by a ire

such a sudden and unearthly uproar that
the woman, sensible and practical though
she was, was frightened. The noise ceas-

out the light and went back to bed. The
noise was not repeated
Six months afterward, however, the

| The general purveyors of advice to wo-
/ men come out nowhere stronger than on
! the subject of how to manage a husband,
says Dorothy Dix in the New Orleans
! Picayune. They have reduced 1T to an eX-
| act science and all one has to do is to
follow the directions given by women who
] don't know a man from logarithm The
! average woman, whose husband is a pref
| ty good sort of a fellow, doesn't want to
! manage him, and would have precious lit
! tie respect for a man she could manage.
Moreover, after considerable experience
| of her Johns little ways she doesn't
! need anybody to teach her her business
| when she wants to inviegle him into do
ing something that he swore he would
never, never do and there wasn't any
more use in talking about it, so there. It
| is at such a time as this that she appre-
ciates that any general formula would
| fail, and that she puts her faith in the
| homemade deductions she has figured out
! herself
| One of the delightfully."- simple sugges-
| lions that are offered 10 students In the
| gentle art of managing a husband is that
! he should be amused, interested and fas-
cinated. Think of woman capable of an
| exploit like that in addition to running
| house on a limited income, bossing the
| servants, sewing for the children man
| aging a church society and a whist club!
! Somehow the theory seems to degrade
| marriage into a kind of vaudeville show
! where the wife is doing a continuous per-
| Torrance, and the husband is an audience
| of one, who may get bored at any mo-
| ment and get up and leave. There may
| be women who are always witty, who are
| interesting under any and all circum-
| stances, and who are perennially fasci-
mating, but their numbers are few and
! far between. More than that, it is doubt
full if any man wants to be continually
! amused and interested. and there are
| times when he wouldn't turn on his heel
| for the greatest fascinator on earth. No
man with a grain of sense in his head or
a particle of heart. marries without ex-
| pecting to share in the burdens and sor-
rows of his wife, her tears as well as her
| smiles, and those who love each other are
not worrying any over their ability to fas-
| cinate.

And can she make IL rain, Miss Ruthie
