See here, Isabel, a juryman ISM
supposed to talk with any one about
a case or read the papers Or"
Nonsense" deprecated Isabel. Nov
It's been proven that he was in his
right mind when he made the will
and he had a perfect right to leave
his money to any one he wanted to
leave it to. What good is q will, any
way, if it can be broken? Do you
mean to tell me If you left your money
to me, you'd like 1t If some one came
along and took 1t away from me?"
There was so much money the sis
ter ought to have Jared better" de-
clared Henry, forgetting himself.
There was enough for both. And his
sister gave him his start and was In
a measure responsible for his later
success. It's only fair"

his old age" declared Isabel. 'He gave
the sister an allowance sufficient for
her needs while he lived and provided

Mrs. Van Zandt was so years old.
She had suffered from intestinal trou-
BILE for years. and had been kept alive
for five weeks by the use of oxygen.
During that time Van Zandt remained
with her almos constantly, not going
to his place Of business and rarely
leaving the house.

Domestic Difficulties.

Observation-Disclosures the matter, dear?
Why do you look so worried?
Wife-Oh, I've just got everything
all ready for Mrs. Neatleigh's visit.
I've done up all the curtains and
pillow shams and bureau covers and
ce%nterpieces, and they're all spick and
span.
Husband-Weu, if everything is In
such apple pie order why look so dis
consulate about it?
Wife bursting into tears)-Oh, I

she'll know I cleaned everything all
up because she was coming!-Judge.

no right to expect more and It's only
for spite that she's making all this
trouble"
AS the case progressed, the House OF
Wysp became divided. Henry's connsc
ton with the contested will brought II
very near home to. them n Henry
would come fresh from the court with
the impression Of the aged sister in his
mind. while Isabel would rise out OF
a mound Of newspapers the champion
Of the widow. Henry n Isabel, who
usually settled their own difficulties
with neatness and dispatch, rarely
qu~arreing, had made quite a serious
issue out Of this trouble, which really
concerned neither Of them.
Il should think, Henry Wysp, with
q wife of your own, you would want
to see Justice done another mans,
Supposing I was in that poor widows
place and
you'll never be contesting my mil

use is Of my helping o be skimpins

Now don't be silly and unreason-
able, Isabel"
You are the one who is both, Henry.
It's really very enlightening to get your
true value of a wife's Importance"
And SO they went on during the days
of the lengthy trial. Isabel had failed
to influence the foreman Of the jury.
Their frequent arguments seemed to
spoil the harmony of the household.
Moreover, Henry became irritable be-
cause things weren't going smoothly
at the office.
Well, it's all over" he announced
one evening.
What was the verdict?" demanded
Isabel. She dreaded to hear. Either
she could crow over Henry or Henry
could crow owe her-either way would
be unsatisfactory and leave a little feel
ing.
The jury disagreed" announced
Henry.
