A FAMILY
AFFAIR
~
By OLIVE EDNA MAY

when Macgregor Jones married he
gave up Julia Brant. woman to
whom he had ben for a long while
devoted, for his wife. Why he pre-.
ferre6 the latter did not appear. Pos
sibly he might have Thought that she
would on the whole make him a better
wife. Those who knew him believed
that he would rather have married
Clementine Brooks. but that there
were certain objections in the way of
his doing no. Miss Brnnt was a mer
~. devil-may-care creature. without
any predispositlon to economy. and
would not have made a good manager.
There were other reasons why Jones
might have decided against her. but
whether they influenced him or not
nobody but himself knows.
Jones insisted on retaining his inti-
macy with his old flame. His wife
objected. but Jones would not give up
Miss Brant. though he simply retain
ed her as a friend. And there was no
suspicion on the part of those who
knew him best that he acted toward
her as anything more than a friend.
But naturally his wife was not salts.
fed. She consented to receive Mlss
Brant at her home. but never display
ed any cordiality toward her.
One day Jones came home from bust
ness much earlier than usual and found
gentleman making an afternoon call
on his wife. Jones bowed 10 the visi
tor coolly and passed on upstairs. Aft
er the man had gone Jones asked who
he was Mrs. Jones informed him tina,
her visitors name was Stendman and
was very old and very dear friend
OF hers. Then Jones remembered that
some one had in his presence twitted
his wife about a man named Stead
man. and he grew very Jealous.
What do you mean by receiving
this old lover Of yours during my alb
sence7" he asked.
"What do you mean by keeping M
your intimacy with Julia Brant sftel
our marriage?"
"Juiia Brant and are old friends"
Henry steadman and l are Older
friends than you and Julia"
Jones saw the point. II presume YOU
intend" be said, ito use this mar
steadman TO separate me from my
friend. Jealousy-absurd jealousy-ha'
separated more couples than any othel
cause"
Then don't be Jealous OF me-"
Jones went away grumbiing, but HI
had sense enough 10 see that his wifi
had as much right TO keep up her init
macy with Steadman as he had to keeI
up his intimacy with Miss Brant Blu
he did not intend to be forced away
from his friend in this way. He ar
gued that he was conducting himseli
with perfect propriety toward her-in
deed. that he had no desire to conduc
himself toward her IN any other way
His wife should take his word for thi
and not try TO break up a friendship
