The Evening Chit-Chat
BY RUTT1.CAMERON

Said the girl in love to the man she
loved: Il don't think you care so much
for me as you used to. Just think.
You were In town all day yesterday
and you didn't call me up. You know
you would never have done that six
months ago"
Said the man in love to the girl he
loved: Why dear, I thought 1 just
told you that l was with Rushwa-<h
every single minute. You know I was
trying to put through that big sale.
and that l didn't dare let him get out
of my sight for a minute"
Reiterated the girl in love: II think
you would have managed somehow six
months, ago before you were so sure of
me-"
| Retorted the man in love: You
didn't use to be so abominably unrea-
sonable- Are you always going to be
| like this?"
! Flushed the girl in love: Yes,
| when I have so much cause to be-
Why? Don't you think you can stand
it?"
| And there they are with a perfect
t1y good quarrel on their hands and
unkind words on their lips and heart
breaks in their hearts. for" to be
wroth with one we love doth work like
| madness in the brain"
| And all for what?
All just because the man in love
didn't realize that what the girl ir
love wanted when she said he didn'1

ated. convincing reassurances. And
because, instead OF these. he gave her
cold. logical. sensible reasoning.
Is there-I wonder-was there ever
a couple who did not have at least
one quarrel along these lines?
Can't you imagine Eve saying to
Adam. When we lived in the garden
you used to be with me all the time
and now 1 seldom see you except at
meals. 4 don't think you love me the
way you used to-"
And, of course. Adam answered.
But. my dear. you know 1 didn't
have any work to do then. and now 1
have to work for my living. / think
you are unreasonable"
And poor little Eve. who just wanted
to be told that he loved her quite as
! much. IL not more, than ever, went
off into the nearby glade to cry her
heart out at the coldness of his tone.
and Adam. went back to his work be-
rating the unreasonahleness of woman.
All of which might have been
avoided II Adam had Just taken Eve
| right up in his arms and said, But
dearest. you know 1 love you more
every day. You are the one woman in
the world to me-"
| And now. you people who still think
I'm man masquerading can you

Gro Aunt Selina's bed, and Bella's
face! Oh, it was all so ridiculous-my
having thought that the HARRISON man
was a gentleman, and finding him a
cad, and worse. 1t was excruciatingly
funny. l quite got a headache from
laughing; indeed l laughed until l
found l was crying, and then | knew
was going to have an attack OF
strangulated emotion, called hysteri&.
So l got up and turned on all the
lights, and bathed my face with CO
logne, and felt better.
But | did not go to sleep. When
the hall clock chimed two, | discover
ed | was hungry. l had had nothing
since luncheon, and even the thirst
following the South American gOuIash
was gone. There was probably some
thing to eat in the pantry, and if there
was not, | was quite equal to going
to the basement.
AS it happened, however, l found a
very orderly assortment Of ~left-Overs
and a pitcher of milk, which had no
business there, in the pantry, and
with plenty of light l was not at all
frightened.
| ate bread and butter and drank
milk, and was fast becoming a ra-
tional person again; l had pulled out
one Of the drawers part way, and
with a tray across the corner | had
~improvised a comfortable seat. And
then | noticed that the drawer vas
full Of soiled napkins, and l remember
ed the bracelet. / hardly know why l
decided to go through the drawer
again after Flanagan had already done
1t, but | did. | finished my milk and
then, getting down on my knees, |
proceeded systematically to empty the
drawer. | took out perhaps a dozen
napkins and as many dOilies without
finding anything. Then l took out a
large tray cloth, and there was some
thing on it that made me look farther.
One corner of II had been sCOrched,
the clear and well-deined imprint Of a
lighted cigarette or cigar, a blackened
streak that trailed of into a brown
and yellow. | had a queer, trembly
feeling, as If | were on the brink of a
discovery-perhaps Anne's pearls, OF
the cuff buttons with storks painted
on china in the center. But the only
thing l found, down in the corner Of
the drawer, was a half-burned ciga-
rette.
To me, it seemed quite enough. 1t
was one Of the South American ciga-
rettes. with a tobacco wrapper instead
Of paper, that Mr.. HARRISON smoked.

NEW WEDDING PLACE CARDS
Designers Have Come Forward This
Season With Some Very
Pretty Designs.

Many new ideas there are to be had
for the looking, for the fashionable
stationers keep designers busy and
one is always sure to find something
new.
Cupid up In an airship Is surely up
to-date-so, too, is a fat and rosy little
Cupid propelling an a%eroplane. These
are not so large as to be unattractive
and are not very expensive, either.
Then there is the ever-popular bride
and-groom place cards-with the new
matron hanging devotedly upon her
brand new husbands arm, while the
little Love God follows along behind,
wearing a bland and beaming smile.
Another new conceit is the sailor
Cupid--a wee Tar, dressed In wings.
smile and sailor cap-perched on top

ideas also-wedding bells, lilies of the
valley, wedding rings and hearts
aplenty.
