BY JENNIE REESE.

Anna. Minua and Helen had been
friends from the time they first met as
girls of II nj boarding school, hnnd this
friendship they had kept mp even after
they had all married.
Now they were sitting together chat
ting, each one insisting that she had Il
better husband and was more happily
married than either of the others, and
that her husband was better trained
than the others.
We'll" said Anna. 1T is really fool
ish TO sit here and waste words; it would
be much better if we put our husbands
to II test Now, | suggest that each OF
us DO the same thing to diSpleaSe her
husband and see which one behaves the
best"
Good exclaimed the others. but
what shall the test eT'
well. my husband is very particular
about his eating. and as | have rather
spoiled him by always doing my best to
tickle his palate, nothing is more dis
agreeable to him than if | occasionally
spoil a dish. Especially on Sunday he
looks for IL dinner perfect i'll every par
ticular. How about your husbands!'
.Oh, my husband is just the same
wayw exclaimed both the others.
''Thcn, suppose each of MS invites the
other two with their husbands to take
dinner with her on II Sunday and then
arrange it 50 that she happens to spoil
the roast. and we will see whose husband
behaves the incest about it,
THAT is Il co.
The con>piratoI~ and their victims first
met nt Anna house the following sun
day. Everything went splcndidly ANA
everybody was in the best of humor until
II roast WAS served which looked like a
piece of charcoal.
The brow of the hitherto 50 pleasant
host clouded viSibly and his eyes seemed
to pierce his poor wife through ana
through. while he mumbled something be-
tween his teeth which his wife'S friends
Interpreted to mean something like THIS
ut is a good thing for you that we are
not alone or | might give YOU piece OF
my mind"
why. darling" exclaimed Anna, you
seem to DE worried about something
What is the martet?
"Oh. it is really nothing but that l DO
wish that You had chosen another time 10
spoil a dinner than when we happen TO
have company. | have always praised
YOUR cooking to Fritz and Wilhelm and

when they look at that roast they must
think am either Il liar on II fool.
why. Hans! do not know what
YOU mean. The roast is h>' perfect as any
| ever made"
Hans gave Il rather sharp reply. ana FL
little domestic quarrel followed. which
WAS Smuothrd over by the guests.
Something quite different happened nj
Minni'S the following Sunday. when an
equally Scophcd roast WAS put on the
table. The host never us much nc made
an allll>ion to the miShar and ate the
rather large slice which his wife had put
on his plate without tlinching.
But IIclrn'S husband behaved even bet
ter under equally trying circumstances Il
week later. Not only he helped himself
twice to mere roast. but even praised the
skill of his wife. who knew exactly Just
how Il dinner should he cooked.
The next day the three wives met to
tender their verdict
Il will not praise myself as having
trained my husband better than any of
YOU" said Helen, "hut | think that both
of YOU will admit that my Fritz put both
of your husbands to shame. Your huS-
band, Anma. openly found fault with the
roast. while MimnaiS kept his tongue, but
mine even praised NE.
IF you will allow me one word, inter
rupted Anna. II do not think all the tcS-
timony is in vet. Helen has truly told
how our husbands acted while others
were present, but my dear Helen what
did Fritz ~aay to You when we had gomez
oh, suppose no more than both OF
yours did" replied Helen. 81 little cmbar-
raised. when you had gone he gave
me N good scolding, and |, of course. in
sisted on having the last word. and at
last he locked himself in his room, and
we have not spoken Il word since
lust what my Wilhelm did. too, said
Ainma. I'VE had a quarrel. but after Il
while we made it all up and have forgot
ten al about it long ago"
But my husband said ANNA. with "a
proud smile, "came TO me as soon as you
hard gone and asked me if | could forgive
him for having behaved 50 outmgeously
at the table, and. though | felt like kiss
ing him on the spot, | made him think
that | WIS very angry until he came
home the next evening with II perfectly
lovely diamond ring for me-"
The verdict was rendered in favor of
