THE HUSBANDS JEALOUSY.

| She was only eighteen when Gilbert
Amydon married her-a bright-eyed
little thing, with hair like gold, and a
complexion like the pink-andwhit of
conch smell.
"Gil, you're a fool!" said his plain
spoken uncle, who had money to leave,
and comported himself in proper
tionately uncivil manner. You're like
all the rest Of the worid-infatuated
by pretty face"
II confess, dear Gilbert, am sur
prised at your choice, saiG his cid
erly maiden sister, after having told
you that Sylvia Simmerton was In
clined to look favorably upon your at
tentions-why, Sylvia has three hun
dred a year of her own"
I'm really afraid, Gilbert" said his
mother, that Florence is rather
young and inexperienced"
She'll grow older, mother" said
the bridegroom cheerily; "and there's
plenty of experience to be had in this
world, if one only lives long enough"
And Gilbert Amydon and his pretty
Qittle wife were as happy as the day
was long.
Florence cried a little when her
husband was obliged to go away on
important business connected with the
firm in which he was a partner. They
had been married only a few months.
81 wish 1 were going with you, Gill
bert" said she; and Gilbert Amydon
laughed and patted her rose-leaf cheek.
why, what should 1 do with lit
tie sephyr of a creature like your"
said he. Glow would you endure trav-
cling all night and running about all
day? No, no; you must stay at home
and keep house till come back"
/ So Gilbert Amydon went away.
! He had not been gone many weeks
before long and acrid letter from his
maiden sister, Drusilla, infused bit
ter element into the current OF his re-
dections.
] Florence Is very wel,' wrote Miss
Drusilla, who, although BY NO means
either fat or fair, was forty at least,
'and apparently very happy. She had

a sWELLED HEAD.

II asked who is the greatest bore,
BY truth we are compelled,
II we make answer. this to say
The man whose head is swelled.
His own ideas and wciShty thoughts
SO fill his little mind.
In others no good trait he sees,
To his own faults he's blind.
So great is his rwn self esteem,
So mighty is his worth,
He thinks all things would cease to
move.
II he'd step on the earth.
he sees much that he'd criticise,
And much that makes him frown,
Not only this, he has the gall,
To call his betters down."
These swell-head people we all know,
Can to themselves give thanks,
If some fne morning they awake
And find they're only cranks.

| Florence, whom he had loved and
trusted-Florence, who had grown int
his heart as the clingins ivy makes
its way into the crevices of the gran
lite rock-FloreAce, whose pure inno-
cence and siRgleness of nature he
had worshipped-what would life be
worth to him il she should prove un-
true? Not that he feared any such
misery-no. he knew Florence too well
for that-but O plum with the bloom
brushed OFF was no plum for him, he
had told himself. with a het, fevered
anger throbbing through his brain; OF
what value were the smiles whose
sweetness was lavished literally on all
alike?
And as he rode along, with folded
arms and travelling cap drawn sullenly
over his eyes, Gilbert Amydon felt like
one who was already bereaved.
The house was dark as he assembled
the steps and opened the door with
his latchkey.
"Gone!" he said to himself, with n
!
What else could I have expected? She
is no longer my sweet, home-loVing
Florence, but-RowNna, the Saxon
Princess!"
With these thoughts In his mind, he
strobe up the passage. and opened the
drawing-room door. To his surprise,
it was neither dark nor deserted. A
cheerful Ere burned in the grate-the
shaded lamp threw it's circlet or light
on the red-c0gered centre -rable--s2d
there, all alene, sat Florence, her
cheek resting on her hand, her soft
eyes fixed intently On something in
her lap-hiS photograph!
It was the prettiest little tableau in
Ond, scarcely willing to disturb it.
"Florence!"
20, Gilbert, Gilbert!"
And with a low, sobbing cry Of JOY
she Sprang to his breast.
80 you haven't gone to the fancy
ball, after ALL" said he, az he sat down
beside her, passing his hand fondly
over her golden hair.
ITO the fancy ball? / never thought
Of going, Gilbert knew you did not

be the pleasure Of going, with you

Ing. Fanny Myrtle did want me to

cousin, was to be Ivanhoe; and she
thought 1t would be q nice party. She
even ordered a costume for me, but

and studying my photograph" he in
terrOgated fondly.

This was the last Of Gilbert Amy

mark.

as he read his sisters words, but pres

up Miss Drusilla's letter unceremoni-
ously into cigar-lighters.

I Gilbert Amydon knit his brows and
bit his lip, as he read the words that

such malicious pleasure. This was
quite different affair from the tea
party to which Drusilla Amydon had
taken exception. And for the first

VICTIMS OF VACATIONS.
Ills That Follow Having n Good Time

did you ever have vacation rrostra-

months holiday, and came back with d
tire dfeeling that illustrates the scrip
tural saying, the last state Of man is
worse than the first"
We'll, if you've never had 1t. you don
know what it is. It's q feeling like one
is all played out, with not only disinci-
nation to get down to work. but a posi-
tive aversion to anything like it. How do
/ account for it? Well, it's because peo-
pie who go off for a vacation wear them
selves out trying to make the most of it,
end come back home ho,low-eyed, shaky
and nervous. ard have to go on a course
OF medicine to get braced up. What the
average vacationer needs is a sub-vaca-
tion to give him a chance to recover
from the physical disability into which
he has plunged In his attempts 10 enjoy
his vacation proper
This sort OF thing affects women rs
well as men. Too much dancing, to1
many card parties and drives and rides,
too violent a change in exercise. and too
many social events lead TO destruction,
and what I have called vacation prostra-
ton. It's a bad disease and a hard one "a
