BOb Burdette's MiSsive e. "Aly Dear

As far as an un.eeling world has

Bob Bur.eue aad his present wife

That one was ON account OF the ubiqui-
tous "othor woman who refused for
some litt.e time 10 be explained away
1t began one afternoon When the hui
morist was summoned suddenly from
his desk. lie had been writing let
ter, and Mrs Burdeue, who happened
to be passing the desk while he was
out of the room, let her eyes wander
by chance over the astounding words
Ny Dear Love Your most welcome mis-
sive is at hand. and l cannot tell you how
delighted j was to get your invitation 10

thing in the way OF course Mrs. b. will

There the letter ended in a little
scrawl Of the pen as the result of the
sudden ringing of the bell. Mrs. Bur
dette had not meant to pry into her
husbands private correspondence. She
had been sure he had no secrets from
her, no affairs with other women, and
yet here was the indisputable evidence
lying right before her eyes. If he had
only finished the sentence, since she
was fated to see the beginning of 1t!
That evening she was naughty and
hurt, as any husband with half an eye
could see, and she positively refused
to explain or give him an opportunity
to explain. She threw out a few dark
hints of the kind to prick his con-
science, but he was either obtuse or
obdurate He made no confession, and
for the first time since their marriage
he believed that his wife was a crea-
ture Of unaccountable moods.
Things were beginning to look dark
and dangerous between them when he
decided to try new tack. He would
tell her something that would interest
her, that would be sure to please her
thereby giving new trend to her
thoughts. He announced that he was
going to take her TO st. Louis. Did
she manifest even the mildest symp-
toms Of elati0n? On the contrary, she
looked more grieved than ever, and
there was a sob in her voice as she
said she already knew about his invi-
tation to meet some one there.
"What" her husband exclaimed.
"Has that wag of a Robertus Love
been writing to you and giving away
our secrets? l was planning such a
capital surprise for yOu!
The making up was Of a kind to
cause him to wish for frequent quar-
rels and. although he promised faith
fully never to give it away, the hu-
morist did tell the story to a little
crowd of press humOrists just after
Robertus Love had been elected secre-
tary of the association.-S1nday Mag

Mccain, who had been i'll for quite

Davidson County teachers, has per-
petuated him in our memories. His

loss. We pray Gods choicest bless
