''It is a cause Of amazement to me
that a man can go on year in and year
out toiling for family whose members
show no interest in his work further
than to spend the money he makes and
who look upon him as the family mint, p"
writes Frances Evans in The Ladies
Home Journal. my firm belief is that
had he in the first flush of married life
talked over his business and ambitions
with his wife she would have become
interested in both, first for his sake and
afterward for her own and their chill
dren's Think of the gulf that lies be-
tween man and woman united in
marriage when he never speaks at home
of the affairs which absorb his entire
dayl Mutual interests will bind people
together indissolubly even when indif-
ference, that dangerous bridge of signs,
has swallowed up affection.

Il didn't pay any attention to these
gibes, however, but the route around
the big tent surely seemed a long one.
But I didn't know what was in store
for me- About half way around the
tent was the press box. didn't know
this until-well, until I saw my
friends in the box. There were about
$50 of them, guess.
''Perley stood right in the middle of
the bunch. He had got 'em all to take
part of the afternoon off just to give
me a send off on my debut as circus
guy; also Perley had arranged that
there should be itch in the process
sion just as my palanquin hove directly
in front of the press box. 1t must have
been very serious hitch, for my pal
anquin was in front of the press box
for quite ten minutes. The 12 Roman
soldiers were given the word to drop the
palanquin end take rest. They didn't t
stand on the order of dropping it, but
dropped it at once-with such suddeness
that my feet shot up into the air and
my jewel studded lid was jammed
down over my eyes, and l must have
been a sight for fact.
"Well, while I was strengthening

along those big ran sling things that you
turn around on handle and horns and
tin whistles and things like that, and
for the ten minutes That the prearranged
hitch lasted they gave me the greatest
ovation you ever heard in your life.
"They leaned over the rail of the
box and talked at me familiarly, calling
me by my nickname and mentioning
out loud numerous tumultuous events
in my checkered life.
''Then they all howled in chorus un-
der the leadership of Perley, who direct

The ability to cast what he writes intoz
an artistic form is part of the personality
of the writer, and like all elements of the
personality, is colored by the general ideas
of the reader, for, in literature expression
is in a certain sense equal in value to
thought, and form gives matter life and
meaning. To the discriminating and dis
corning reader of fiction elegance of form
and style is of far greater importance and
