patch of sweet clover. 1t seemed to
Johnny Chuck that it was the best place
on all the Green Meadows. He whispered
as much to Polly Chuck. She turned up
her nose.
IT'S too low" said she.
oh" replied Johnny. looking puzzled.
Tor really 1T was one of the highest
places on the Green Meadows.
YES" said Polly, in brisk, decided
way. Its altogether too low. Probably

"Oh!' said Johnny once more. OF
course he knew that it wasn't wet, but
'if Polly didn't want to live there he
"Now, there's place right over there
continued Polly. ''I think we'll build our
house right there
Johnny opened his mouth to say some
speaking and meekly trotted after Polly
Chuck to the place she had picked out. 1t
was in little hollow. Johnny knew be-
fore he began to dig that the ground was
damp. almost wet. But If Polly wanted
to live there she should, and Johnny be-
gan to dig. BY and by he stopped to
rest. Where was Polly? He looked this
way and that way anxiously. Just as he
was getting ready to start to hunt for her
she came hurrying back
1--WE found a perfectly lovely place for
our new hOme! she cried.
Johnny looked ruefully at the hole he
had worked SO hard to dig, then he
brushed the dirt from his clothes and fol-
lowed her. This time Johnny had no
fault to find with the ground 1t was
high and dry. But Polly had chosen q
spot close to road that wound down
across the Green Meadows. Johnny shook
his head dOubtfully. but he began to dig. &
This time. however he kept one eye on
Polly Chuck, and the minute he found
that she was wandering off he stopped
digging and chuckIed as he watched her.
TIT wasn't long before back she came in
great excitement. She had found a better
place.
So they wandered over the Green
Meadows, Polly leading the way. Johnny
had learned by this time to waste no time
digging. And he had made up his mind
1t was this: He weuld follow Polly until
she found place to suit him. but when
she did find such a place she shouldn't
have a chance to change her mind again.

had been hiding and snuggled up beside
Johnny Chuck and looked at him as ii
she thought him the most wonderful
Chuck in all the world, as. indeed, she
did, And Johnny had-felt his heart swell
and swell with happiness until it almost
choked him.
So now once more Johnny Chuck began
to think of new home. He had forgotten
all about seeing the world. All he wanted
now was a new house. built just SO, with
q front door and hidden back door, big
enough for two, for no more would
Johnny Chuck live alone. So with shy
Polly Chuck by his side he began to
search for q place to make new home.
The more he thought about it the more
Johnny wanted to build his house over by
the lone elm tree, where he had first seen
Polly Chuck. 1t was a splendid place.

Business Woman
Learns From Friend

Ao AAvAA AAeAo' couple of
years before In their condolences it
came out that the single woman was
considering a proposal Of marriage I'm
mediately the married woman, who had
been a stenogra pher earning comfort
able salary. spoke vehemently against
it. Within a few days the visitor found
out why. Her old schoolmates hus-
band, while kind and considerate in many
things and a delightful companion, was
imbued with the idea that women were
not competent to- be trusted with money.
SO his wife never had any. Everything
needed in the house was purchased and
the bills sent to him. His wife was not
even permitted to select her own cloth
ing. When the two women went out to-
gether it developed that the married
woman was absolutely penniless. not even
being able to pay the carfare of her
guest. Upon one occasion she even hu-
inflated herself to the extent of bOr-
rowing a dollar from one of her serv-
ants. If her husband gave her a dollar
he demanded an itemized accounting for
every cent. The single woman profited
by the lesson. She did not marry the
man she cared for until they had had
thorough understanding regarding their
future finances.
Another question affecting the marriage
of educated women is that they are no
iOnSeT iSnOTdnt OF matters Nltdlly an0ct-
ing their own health. The dangers which
women risk in marrying men who have
led immoral lives are understood by
every college girl. She is keenly alive
to the advantage of requiring a health
certificate before marriage. Last year a
girl from the University Of Wisconsin
informed a former teacher that half of
the girls in her class belonged to a club
the members of which gave pledge
not to marry man unless he had his
life insured. The object was not the
financial protection. but the assurance
ance certificate would not be issued.
While this is not regarded as an ade-
quate protection, it goes to show that
the girls of the present day are consider
ing marriage from an entirely different
standpoint from that of their mothers.

in the home. it is not always possible for
her to meet the requirements for their
own comfort upon his earnings without
considering the probabilities of children.
The great amount of factory products
now utilized in the equipment of the home
frequently leaves her little real work to
do. Until some practical means is evolv-
ed by which the leisure time of a woman
may be utilized to increase the family
income without involving too great strain
upon her physical strength many mar
riages which might be happy of neces-
sity must be delayed.
The number of divorces. which cause
alarm to many social prophets, are usu-
ally blamed upon the restlessness Of the
modern woman, who becomes discomfort

possible. The number of divorces i'm the
