They knew just what would appeal to a
quiet Home Body. 400 miles from his own
Preside They took him in Tow and gave
him Square Meal every Hour. Then they
stood him under Shower Bath and turned
the whole Wine Card on him. He played
Golf Pool until he was chaIked all over
and then he played Poker until he had to
feel 10 see IL the Ante was there. The Clerk
at the Hotel saw him twice-once when he
Registered and once when he came to get
his Baggage He fell into a Sleeper and told
the Porter TO make up Berths until ordered
to stop. In the morning when he awoke
with Head Of Seven Gables and reached
for his Bromo. he realized that he had En-
Joyed himself.
While he was away. working a combine
of Business and Recreation. the Wife went
or regular Lark. She called in a former
Chum and they sailed out in their Circus
Gowns and ordered up Pine Apple Soda re-
CARELESS and took in Matinee where the
Leading Man looked right at them occa-
slonally and then they ate Marshmallows
all the way home. They put on Old Wrap
pers and cooked something in a Chatting
Dish. and the Wife brought out some of
her Preserved Letters and read them and
then they turned in together and giggled
half the Night.
But. fortunately, the Husband never
found out how she had carried on.
Moral-The Reaction is something Ter
rible.

perplexing Problems, delicate manipula-

more Barkeeps."
