THE DICTAGRAPH
TTHE dictagraph is sort OF verbal
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author of 'sAt Good Old Siwash.s

FEVHE dictagraph IS a sort of verbal
camera which can take a snap
shot of an extremely personal
conversation in a quiet and unOstenta-
tious manner and reproduce it two years
later where it viii do the most good.
The dictagraph is a phonOgraph with
d detective annex When it is placed
under a table or in a closet OF in the
coal scuttle or the chimney. it paws close
attention to all the conversation within
range as long as it IS wound up. Later
on when it Is taken into the court room
and turned loose not even the most
alarming attorney can rattle It when it
tells its story. 1t is harder to cross
examine a dictagraph than it is to get
information out of Rockefeller.
The dictaeTaph is a young machine
and hadn't been heard of four years
ago. But it has already done a great
deal OF work. Because Of the dictagraph
a large number of grafters have listened
with great pain and anguish TO their
own words produced in an excessively
public place and have retired from office
into small and badly ventilated cells.
As result there Is now a great outcrv

you are proving yourself to be a woman
lacking in the finer qualities Of WON

And you are proving your inability
to really love
The woman who has felt love In It's
fullest and best sense, could not talk
Of the wounds she had received at love
hands, only as she had resolved to
make an end Of a situation which had
become intOlerable.
And then she would talk alone to
those whom she might look for aid
and counsel
1t is a distressing fact. nevertheless.
that scores Of wives who claim to be
loving and loyal find hysterical pleas
ure in talking to friends and even mere
acquaintance ABOUT their marital dis
uiuslOnments.
1t is seldom a man is found who is
50 weak and maWkish as to discuss his
domestic infeicities with other men
But in every community women
abound whose principal distraction lies
in posing as misunderstood and unap-
preciated wives.

To Confess Mistake Great Humiliation.
The greatest humiliation which can
come to any woman is to confess that
she has made a mistake in her mar
riage 1t should be the last thing a
woman could be forced into saying.
Woman's first and foremost business
in life is to be loved and admired and
respected BY 8 man and TO stand as

The moment woman has spoken or
her marital troubles or disappOint-

lawyer for the purpose OF obtaining
freedom), that moment she may as well
realize she has announced some failure
in herself as the cause Of the existing

On Thursday evening. May, having
slipped away from the others, was
walking slowly down the path leading
from her fathers house to the country
road, and beyond that to the lake.
She was passing through a dark

thickly on either side, when, quite sud

emily a mans figure doomed up out OF
the gloom.
For a moment Nay hesitated Then

The man had reached her now. and
had taken her Outstretched hand.
Not HARM erely his brother. but

Hardly that, Harry doesn't know
that I'm here. He'll go r2vlng mad
when he finds that the boats gone
and that he can't get across. The fact
is that about an hour ago he hurt him
self. He was fOOling about with that
young horse we got the other DAY, and
he got a nasty kick on the leg. 1t
would have been the si1iest thing IN
the world to come across as he is, and
sO-Well. I Communicated the boat, and
now he's get to stay at home whether
he wishes to or not"

bless me instead Of cursing me. Come

The hour Of nine was just striking
on the village clock two miles away
when they reached the water-side, and.
lying face down on the single close
to the bush by her boat house, lay
man. He was hatess, coatless-drip-
