% He Had to Quit Smoking %
Of smoking" said the

HTALKING of smoking" said the
patent lawyer, reminds me
of young Fodder. If there was
one thing more than another that
young Fodder liked to do it was to
please his wife, even as Mrs. Fodder
liked to please him above all other
things. Either could have pleased the
other best by allowing that other to
be the cause of the couples pleasure
Each kept toward the other an attitude
Of strained attention.
THE couple were peramentally
opposite-which in all probability ac-
counted for their marriage. Mrs. Pod
der was changeable in the extreme,
vacillating and without any fixed pur-
pose. Fodder never wavered after his
mind had once been made up.
Fodder had been assured by his wife
that he might, without fear Of censure,
continue the practice of any habits he
had contracted before their marriage.
He had the good sense to refrain from
coming home at a later hour than nee
essary, but he felt that. in view of the
sacrifice, he might be allowed to keep
and smoke his pipe.
The Cause of the Trouble.
1T was the pipe that was RESPONSE
Bile for the trouble Fodder usually
smoked in a big chair which stood in
the living room alongside small ia
bic. From time to time he would take
his pipe from his mouth and lay IT
down on the table. He would always
pick it up again before it had time to
go out. on the table was a costly ar
tistic cover which had been presented
to the Podders by maiden aunt of
the brides.
ION one Hateful evening Fodder laid
his pipe down with more than usual
emphasis. Something in the newspa-
per he was reading so engrossed his
attention that he had eyes for nothing
else. A small red coal rolled out of the
bowl of his pipe and rested upon the
precious table cover. 1t was Mrs Pod
der who presently followed her nose
and thereby discovered the cause of the
odor of burning linen.
