What's this? Delicatessen stuff
again. can't eat it and you know it!
1 detest the stuff
Pm sure it's very good; and if you
think I'm going to stand over the
stove cooking all the time and never
go anywhere, you're mistaken.
IF you're too lazy to get me some
thing decent to eat while Norah is
sick. why don't yet get some one that
will ?''
I'm not going to break in any new
girl for only week or two; it's too
much trouble"
How is Norah-any better?"
Yes, she's better
"Oh, 1 can't eat this truck, and I'm
hungry tonight
It's too bad you have such a deli
cate appetite! You said the other
night that the cold ham tasted good"
THAT was the first time I had had
any for a long time, but we have had
it every night since"
go on kicking! I'm used to it,
Il don't see why-while Norah is
sick-and if you won't get another
girI-you can't cook some little thing
yourself. 1 wouldn't care what-eggs
or anything"
Il told you 1 wasn't going to stay
in and cook
You could do what I ask without
staying in 1t would only take a few
minutes"
Il can't cook in my street clothes.
and I'm not going to rush home to
change them just to cook for you
For Heavens sake! Where do you
go, that you can't take time to get me
a bite to eat?''
IF you are so anxious to know, l
go to the moving picture shows. 1
can't afford a matinee very often on
my BIG allowance, so 1 try to content
myself with the cheaper places"
You don't mean that you go TO
those places every day! So that's the
reason of this patronage of the ready
to eat places
mo! I don't go every day. But
do go about three times a week.
"How can you stand it to go as Of
ten as that? I wish you wouldn't
1 don't like the looks of it.
"Oh, you don't! Then give me
enough money so I can go to a good
theatre-because I'm going some
where
Il should think after you had gone
once or twice you would rather stay
at home and read a good book"
And get YOU a good dinner-why
didn't you add it? That's what you
meant. No, thank you! You didn't
marry COOK"
I'm well aware of that. but if this
way of feeding me keeps up, 1 shall
wish that I had"
won't be the only one to wish you
had I eat the same food you do. and
you don't hear me fussing about it,
mo, because you either like this
trash or pretend to-so you can waste
your time going to moving picture
shows instead of looking after the
house"
IF you don't like the way 1 do,
why, get some one else"
You make a man nearly deSper

all tired -hungry-needing a good

your time at picture shows, this is

yes. the doctor says she'll be
around in day or two. I'm so glad.
That's good! If she wasn't better,
L was going to advise getting some one
else
"Oh, Jack, 1 hate the thought of
breaking in a new girl for only a few
days. I'm like mother in that-she
dreaded it, too.'
What made you have to hurry SO
tonight? You haven't told me yet"
IT went to the moving pictures this

girls go nearly every day.

well, a good many. Then they
stop at the delicatessen and buy nice
things for dinner-if for any reason
II should think after going two or
three times, you would tire of it,
"Oh, it's rather interesting. espec-

much the other night

Il don't mind it, dear. You never
kick about anything-no matter how
bad it is. And as long as you don't
like it, 1 won't ask you to eat ready
cooked food, although it was a temp
tation tonight when I saw it was so
late
The others are more indolent than
my little wife.
You see, Jack. when one has been
out till nearly dinner time. it's hard
to rush home and change your clothes
of course 1 can't cook in my street
clothes. That's one reason it's
temptation to buy the dinner all
cooked
Il don't want to hurt your feelings,
Puss. but I wish you wouldn't go to
the picture shows any more without
me, and I don't think much of that
crowd you run with lately"
why, Jack! They are all very nice!
Are you afraid they will persuade me
to feed you ready cooked food?"
mo, it isn't that. though 1 hate it.
But if they keep their homes in that
slipshop way, I imagine they would be
careless in other ways
Il don't think so. But I won't go
so often, dear, if you don't want me
to-and I won't buy your dinner at the
delicatessen when I do co.
