In replying to this letter I'm
sure to reach many another
woman who is unhappy because
she has listened to that most
dangerous and despioable of all
liars-the talebearer. Many a
faithful heart has been wounded
and many home broken up
through this source, and history
will repeat itself just so long as
wives and husbands permit
themselves to listen to the tales,
Dear Miss Grey: I have been
away from my husband for
long time. Not separated by law,
but financially he was not able to
send for me until the present
time. ! wrote to him every week
and he was kind and would an
swer my letters.
But since ! have arrived ]
find out he has passed for single
man and has been quite attentive
to a woman. She tells me she
told him she loved him and he
told her he loved her. But he
never limited he was married.
We'll. now she has found out
and tells me all about their love-
making. Now my husband stays
lat home and is true to me, but |
doubt his love. Do you think l
should? | was supporting my
self, but he has been sewing his
wild oats, going to all kinds of
amusements with this woman.
have not told my husband that
she has told me. Should ] tell
him?
He gave her present for
Christmas and she gave him a re-
membrance. Do you think he
still cares for the woman? VIII
you give me your advice on this?
I don't believe l love him as
used to, for this comes to my
mind and l know the woman has
told me the truth.
e"Since l have been here he
acts sarcastic toward this friend
of his, but, she said to me, I'll
Fever speak to him again. He
has deceived me- She says she
does not love him now, but don't
believe ] can either. So advise
me. ALMA"
If you had not been The One
Woman to your husband he
vould not have sent for you, and
neither would he stay at home
With you now.
If you care for him no longer,
JUST on account of this silly wom-
|au's tattle, / haven't q very high
opinion of the quality of your af-
lection.
1t is easy for any of us to drift
into friendships when alone and
lonely. There may be any num-
Der of sane and sensible reasons
for this particular friendship in
which they're interested.
The fact that your husband has
been going to places of amuse-
ment with this woman does not
argue that he has been sowing
wild oats, by any means.
And the very fact that he does
not seem to care for her particu-
larly now indicates that the
friendship did not amount to so
very much after all.
You and I know and so does
Everybody else, that there are
plenty of vain, foolish, man-crazy
women who are ready to believe
that the man who glanoes at them
twice is dead in love with them.
These women FOOL THEM
SELVES, and then when their
tender feelings are hurt they run
around and howl about it after
ward. If in doing this they can
hurt some other woman, so much
the better-or so they think.
There's not the slightest doubt
that woman who would go to
WIFE with such tales as this
woman has told you, would also
stretch the truth very materially

tagOnist, looking for an opening, but
keeping well out of danger. Sudden
ly, like a flash, the bird raised and
shot out one Of his powerful feet,
with sharp talons, and struck the
snake fairly on the head. This was
quickly followed by another crushing
blow, which proved a knockout.
Another 3-foot snake given to the
bird proved more active than the first,
and showed a disposition to fight,
making several angry lunges at the
secretary, which lodged them In
prize ring style. In avoiding these
the bird put out its widespread foot
to protect the abdomen. The secre-
tary tented and lodged for a minute
or more, watching for good opening.
Suddenly, up shot the heavy foot, and
a sledge hammer blow, surely aimed,
struck the snake on the head, stun
ming and putting the reptile out of
action The talons were drawn to-
gether when the blow started,
Strengthened out while in the air, and
were brought together slightly at the
instant Of impact with the snake, so
that the victim received not only the
force Of the blow, but the piercing of
the sharp claws.
When the snake lay quiet after the
blows the bird eyed it carefully, for a
moment to see If it were quite harm
slowly for a bit he suddenly shot out
his beak like an arrow and transfixed
the snake just behind the head like
a sausage on a spit After that the
reptile was eaten with as little cere.

bulky nests, which are utilized at
night as a roosting place. Where
trees are to be had they select a
place 60 or 100 feet above the ground
for the nests. These are built OF

New York.-Two creatures entirely
new to the eyes Of the New York
public are the fine pair of secretary
birds, male and female, just acquired
by Director w. T. Hornaday for the
Geological Garden. These stately.
long-legged bipeds, with ashy gray
plumage and tall feathers two feet
long, are the champion snake killers
OF the world. The secretary is really
a hawk, adapted especially for ground
hunting. The male stands four feet
high, the greater part of this being
made up Of legs and neck.
The bird gets its odd name from a
crest of long, dark plumes rising from
the back of the head, which gives him
fanciful resemblance to a clerk hav
ing bunch Of quill pens stuck behind
his ears. The naked skin of the face
Is yellow. The fine gray eyes have
heavy long lashes. In South Africa
the birds are said to be Of consider
able economic use to the community
they kill and eat cobras, vipers and
other poisonous reptiles. All it's food
must be alive, and as garter snakes
sell at ten cents each there Is likely
to be a good market for youthful
snake hunters In The Bronx
A garter snake was thrown some
distance from the male secretary bird
on the ground in the run. Unlike a
hawk or vulture, he did not fly upon
the prey at once, but cautiously ap-
preached the snake with wings partly
outspread so as to be ready to escape
any sudden lunge Of the enemy. Still
watching its movements, the secre-
tary slowly circled around his an
