REEFS AND ROCKS
BY FIemming Ussing.

AT 3 o'clock sharp Preben Wemme, the
Young LAWYER. closed his office and
started for Cafe Bristol He sat down
at one of the small tables on the side
walk and ordered a whisky and soda
and while he was slipping it and look
ing at the passing crowd he thought
of his beautiful young wife. whom he
expected back today from her summer
holiday.
He has been married only six months.
and during the last four weeks his wife
had been away in the country with her
parents who had small estate on the
island of Fiunen. During all these
weeks he had been a widower, or made
believe he was.
Business cares had prevented him
from taking any vacation and go 10
the country with his wife, so he tried
to reward himself in other ways.
With a smile he thought of Lily and
Elsie and-Heu. a couple of other
young girls who had helped him to pass
the time and make him feel the longing
for his wife less acutely.
But In spite of all, there was not the
slightest doubt in his mind that Karen,
his wife, was the only woman in the
think that it was really unbearable TO
he without her much longer.
II.
Preben Wemme had paid his whisky
and soda and was about to leave, when
he saw Lily coming across the square
The clock in the Radius Tower was
iust striking four, and Preben remem-
bered that Karen's train was not due
for more than two hours yet and he de-
cided TO spend these two hours in Lily
company.
At 3 o'clock Preben Wemme and Lily
were sitting in the Central care nav
ing dinner Lily had felt so terribly
hungry and there had been nothing 10
do but TO invite her.
Frehen of course was to have din
ner at home together with his wife, but
he ordered dinner for two, nevertheless,
for he felt just little hungry himself
and quite sure OF his ability to dine
twice.
At o'clock he had had five courses
and half a bottle Of claret and was now
AT coffee. He lit a Henry Clay perfecto
and was feeling fine, though the
thought of another dinner within an
hour or two from now worried him
considerably.
Karen was standing at the door OF
her compartment when the train rolled
into the station, where Preben was
waiting for her on the platform he
helned her to descend and found her
more bewitching than ever. She had
grown very tanned and this golden
brown complexion was very becoming
TO her. -
Preben felt very much in love with

Karen looked at Preben tenderly-

This was at the fish.
Then came the roast and Karen put
an enormous slice on her husbands
plate.
Preben groaned inwardly and began
to eat. He thought a little Of confess

cellent dinner at with a business
friend. but as he knew that Karen was
very jealous. even of business friends.

He felt quite oppressed and dizzy al

Karen looked al him with a very
much worried expression in her pretty
face.
Karen was tired after travelling all
day and went to bed early She felt
sleepy, she said.
Preben remained IN the sitting room
with a magazine and a cigar. From
time TO time he pressed his hand
against his stomach and thought with
horror Of his two dinners
After while he tiptoed to the bed

Preben did not want to disturb her,

She has made numerous enemies by
her rudeness to strangers. and. at heart.
she is very good woman; she simply
cannot bring herself to be gracious.
Many Americans are brusque and
short of manner. 1t is a quality which
must be fought against.
Our great-grandparents would have

some Of their descendants.
Too Hurried to BE Polite.
One trouble is that every one is in
such a desperate hurry.

In too great a hurry, when you al
most knock somebody down to stop and
say. Il beg your pardon"
In too great hurry all day long to
have thought for anything but getting
there as fast as possible.
True politeness comes from the heart
and is not a matter of education
I know an old woman-she has been

~WENTY- EIGHT years ago-Aug-
15,1SS2-Dr. Robert Koch, of Ber-
- lin. discovered the deadly germ
of the most fatal disease known TO hui
manity-consumpt He announced
that all tubercular disease depends upon
the presence of this germ, which he
named bacillus tuberculosia. His expe-
riments demonstrated that the germ ex-
sists in all consumptive patients; that
if the germ were lodged in the bodies
of animals previously healthy they
would die Of tuberculosis; that there is
no tuberculosis without this germ, and
that it is by the transmission of this
germ, and in such way only, that the
disease is propagated.
The discovery instantly attracted the
attention of the whole world; nor was
its value at all lessened by the fact that
the remedy which its discoverer thought
he had found for the great white
plague" proved to be a failure. The
