A SHREWD WIFE
BY HELEN PHELPS WILLIAMS

The only secret in the household Of
Mr.. and Mrs. John Amory did not be-
long to them, but had been intrusted to
their keeping by Charles Charlton, an old
friend of BOTH who was generally &C
counted a ne'er do well. Charles Charl-
ton, before he grew bitter, used to say
such a thing as luck in the world, that
there existed plenty of bad luck; and his
career proved and it is true that despite
certain advantages OF birth and educa ton
this young man was born, or appeared to
have been born, under an unlucky star.
His father was yet rich man, and
Charlie" was his only child, yet the
sought to win his boys love and seemed
not to demand his confidence. The boy,
therefore, started handicapped in life de-
spite material advantages.
Until l was sixteen years old, the
young man used to say, I don't believe
my father ever knew whether 1 went to
h Breakfast and dinner but never 'e eS- <.
changed a dozen words with me at either
meal. If it hadn't been for poor old
since my mothers death, he wouldn' t
have known if l needed clothes. But I
did go to SchOol-a public SchoOl-becauSe
all the other children in our block went
and if l had remained at home l should
have died Of loneliness. So I never missed
a day. Much good my punctuality did

The elder Charlton was attorney for a
few sober and safe corporations, and
nearly every night closeted himself in
his library with a mass of papers AS
the railways and other institutions whose
interests he safeguarded had their CEN
tiers in the West, he was troubled with
very little company, and until a taste
for the theater developed in his son that
youth used to dawdle about the kitchen
fall asleep in the dining room, and find
the hours between dinner and bedtime
distressingly long. During the period of
his callow time Charlie began to try to
copy pictures from the Illustrated papers.
and it was not long before he fancied
himself an artist. With the first
scratches of his untutored pencil old Mar
garet proudly proclaimed him a born
painter" In fact, with considerable fear
of the result but with determination. the
faithful soul knocked at the library door
one night and showed Mr.. Charlton an
example of his sons talent. The result
justified her fear
The rugged old man pooh pooled the
effort, tore it up, and said:
Send him to bed: he can't waste his
time so badly IL he's asleep"
Shortly after this Charlie turned his
eighteenth birthday and his father sent
for him to come into the library. Marga-
ret was the messenger, and she found the
lad sprawling over the dining table with
water colors mixed in the saucers, and
engaged in copying in color Da Vinci's
Last Supper"-no less
Your father wants you-what do YOU
be doin'?'' said Margaret, all in one
breath.
Look at that exclaimed Charlie. con-
ndently. Isn't it good7"
