ALWAYS THE SAME ANSWER.
Little Bride Simply Made Trouble by
Asking Useless Question.

1t was very warm night, and peo-
pie in the boardin.; house had left
their bedroom doors slightly ajar.
Thus any conversation Of persons who
were so indiscreet as to forget the
fact was distinctly heard down the
hall, and that accounts for several
persons knowing that the little bride,
who is not more than 20 years old,
said to her equally youthful husband:
Are you telling me the truth?" His
answer was not heard, but it failed to
be convincing, evidently, for the little
bride repeated the question, even unto
the third time, and at the last her
voice by no means expressed conyic.
ton.
And then those who were older in
worldly wisdom pondered and COM
mented.
" Because, they said, that of all USE
less things, 1t was for a woman to
ask her husband If he wefe telling the
truth. Even If he were not, and knew
that his wife knew that he was not,
he would still declare that he was. It
Is not In masculine nature to go back
on such statement once it is made.

bride was simply making trouble for
