Butterfly Life Enjoyed

William Whittier has passed into the
thirties, and at different times has been
an employe of his fathers paint fac
tory, but his tastes were far too aesthe-
tic to harmonize with the sharp odors
of turpentine and 'varnish even on a
rising market. Not even the deep YER
million has had power sufficient to hold
him to the factory.
Whittier passed UP the plant for the
butterfly life. With him it was wine,
women and automobiles, and one
woman in particular. 1t was on Margie
O'Brien, one of the firefies of Bohemia,
that Whittier lavished his devotion. A
young wife sat in sorrow in San Rafael
her secret locked in her heart.
A few months ago the climax was
reached. Young Whittier had hitched
his chariot to shooting star. Through
the wild life of the city he sped at a
pace that no cyclometer could record
Night after night the revelry ran with
out end in the joyous corners of Fill
more street. Finally young Whittier
was rescued from lodging house by a
friend and taken to his home in San
Rafael, where a reconciliation with his
wife was effected.
