WHEN THE ROMANCE FADED
PIaIn-spoken Husband Came to the
Point With a Few Words Of
unvarnIshed Truth.

Congressman Jim Mann was on his
way back from Chicago, and couldn't
help hearing the conversation of the
couple in the section right behind
his. They looked like newly married
folks, says Mack's National Monthly,
but were not on their honeymoon, as
Mann learned by deduction. The
woman laid down a newspaper she
had been reading and said to her hus-
band:
DO you know, I wish I had one
of these afinities. Oh, l think it
would be just grand to sit on a rock
with somebody and have him rave
about the Incompatible golden color
of my hair and tell me that my eyes
we're the most beautiful in the whole
world, and"
"Uh, huh" said the husband, yawn'
ing.
And that the delicate pink of my
cheeks had been painted there by the
angels, and that he couldn't live with
out me. Ooh, I think an affinity like
that would be-"
"Tisn't an affinity you want" in
terrupted her husband. What yor
eem to want is a plain, old-fashionet
