Now during HIS wife's lifetime the man
had devoted himself to doing turns In
the grocery line. and he had fallen for
all OF the privileges Of age.
He dressed as he pleased and was ac-
oustomed TO say that he thanked his
maker that he was not one Of those fool
dudes who sacrificed comfort to fashion.
So he wore low. turned-down collars that
did not chafe his neck. and broad-soled
shoes, and he hung on to a loose old
coat until It got rusty.
Neither did he care for society and be-
fore his wife could induce him 10 take
her out to any place Of amusement she
had TO hypnotizo him.
II was not long. however. after his
wife's death that the man began to take
notice. and his friends observed a great
change In his personal appearance.
He blew himself for joyous habii-
msnts. and he wore a collar 50 tall that
II looked like section Of a sewer pipe.
Moreover he shaved the alfalfa off his
chin. and dyed his hair a deep piratical
black. and he got a gait on his patent
feathers like a rah-rah boy.
I'VE perceive" said his friends. as
they got line on this spendor, that the
real secret Of the elixer Of youth is to
be widower. and that all that man
needs to rejuvenate him is to lose his
wife"
Besides his sartorial triumph, the man
likewise qualified as a society butterfly,
where he did pedestrian wonders tottng

T around tea at afternoon functions, and
tho only thing that saved him from doing
the Turkey Trot was spring halt In bis
knee action.
By-and-by, however, the man grew
weary OF so much giee, and to feel that
he would like to get back TO business
and work while for rest, 30 he picked
out beauteous young maiden and
asked her to bo his bride. although they
lacked about forty years of trotting In
the same class.
Adorable creature" he cried. be

could look down upon us. you are the
very one she would pick out to console
me for her loss. love you to distrac-
tion. besides which have a large sized
wad, although l am aware that II you
marry me It viii be for love alone"
The maiden was, indeed. heart
CRATER. and she was as wise as she was
beautiful. so she took a good. long think
over the matter, .r
"As q general thing" she reflected. Il
do not care for antiques. nor does my
appetite run TO warmed over disheS stu
this one Is well preserved. and Is lined
with yellow backs, SO as / opine that be-
ing an old mans darling Is better than
cooking for a young ono. It's me for the
easy thing"
But much to her surprise no sooner
were they married than the man resumed
being as old as he had been before he
was 4 widower. lie also left Off his glad
rags and got back Into his old clothes,
and when she mentioned going out TO the
theater or a party he began to groan with
the rheumatism.
More than that. he began to knock her
faults and TO tel her how his first wife
used TO keep house and set a comfortable
table on IS n week. and how she never
desired any amusement except TO sit up
and watch him read the paper OF an
evening. ..
In reality the first wife had been
very ordinary creature with a tongue
that could talk phonograph to a stand
still, but the man touted her to his sec
ond wife as a paragon Of perfection.
One night when he had been doing this
he observed the bride weeping bitterly.
Why do you cry?" he asked.
"Alasl" cried the new wife, II weep
for your first wife. Nobody can regret
her death as much as / do"
Moral: This Fable teaches that Il Is
better to be young mans darling than
an old mans slave.

Earth's Aerial Envelope
BY EDGAR LuCIEN LARKIN.

Modern scientific researches in the
ocean OF air surrounding the earth have
been greatly aided by means OF self
recording instruments. These are In
senious. indeed. and have required . high
order OF inventive skill.
The problem OF discovering the nature
Of the upper atmosphere Is that OF find
ing some way Of sending instruments
into regions where man cannot 90, ana
live.
But there would be no use In sending
an instrument anywhere unless II could
make a record OF its strange surround
lngs. Thus thermometers can be placed
in heat where no life could exist and
record the degrees of temperature. And
barometers likewise can be put into air
so rare that Il would not enter the lungs
and enable one to- breathe. And Their
mometers combined with barometcrs
have been sent up TO regions so cold and
with air so rare that organic life could
not exist therein.
The atmospheric envelope is far more
elaborate and complex than any thought
