that same moment, a little nearer

nearest TO him.
But Mary's next words came wholly
as a surprise, seemingly totally irrele-

they rang athrob with an hysterical

IL was something about folks that
lived a long time ago living over
again. For instance, the old gent
said-don't mean father, I mean the
other old gent-that he believed he
was a soldier in the time when they
was having the Wars Of the Roses
He said that he fought under the Red
Rose, whatever kind Of a lodge that
was. and / guess he was that dippy

wanted to humor his old school chum,
because he said he believed in the
same theory and thought the soul
could live again in another body. 1t
was all I could do 10 keep from snick-
ering when father talked like that,
because goodness knows he spends a
lot more time thinking about pinochle
and three cushion billiards than he
does in thinking about the human
soul and what becomes Of 1t after we
have kicked I'm. But he stalled fine,
and 7 guess the old school friend
went away thinking that father was

wife in the world can get 30 sick and

The Woman s Side.
Every now and then a woman gets SO
that she can see nothing but faults
in her husband. Everything he does
and everything he doesn't do irrftates
her, and she. too, gets to wondering
what on earth the fool-kiIlsr was doing
on the day that she tied up with the
miserable little shrimp that she did,
| instead OF marrying some romantic and
godlike creature that she didn't marry.
She thinks that she Is suffering from
having missed her affinity and being
married TO a grounding that can't IN
derstand her higher nature, but the
whole trouble IS that she has had too
much OF her husbands society. All
that she needs TO effect a complete cure
is a month OF six weeks separation.
OF course. being ladies' and GENTLE
men, most OF US never admit TO our hus-
/ bands and wives that we are bored
We yawn behind our hands and try to

all OF ia know that the surging Joy with
which we saw our dearly beloved hus-
band or wife start Off on a Journey, or
the rapture that filed our own soul
when we got to go of somewhere alone.

The Manicure
Lady
By WILLIAM F. KIRK.

KkT HERE was queer old bug up
to our house last night" said
the Manicure Lady. 1T seems
that he and father used to go to
school together, and the old gent ran
into him by accident yesterday after
noon He didn't know that his school
chum had changed so since boyhood,
and before he got wise to the change
he asked his friend up to the house.
81 was kind Of surprised at the gen
sral appearance Of Pas friend. He
was one Of them tall, slim college
professor looking kind of chaps, and
when anybody spoke to him he gave
a little jump sideways like a scared
kitten. His manner was that timid
and gentle you would have swore,
George, that his wife had a dozen
kind Of Indian signs on him. 1t
seemed kind Of funny to the folks to
have Pa cumming around with such
like, because goodness knows most
of his intimate friends are big necked
and copper lined enough to make
their way in this speedy world of
ours. After knowing Bull McCabe
and Marty Regan and the rest Of Pas
husky comrades, it seemed funny to
entertain a shrinking violet like this
gent Of which l am speaking Of"
A Long Story Teller.
well, come to the point" said the
Head Barber and don't be puttering
around all the forenoon. You are
worse than one Of those long story
tellers."
Il wouldn't converse with YOU at
all. ever, If I didn't have to, George"
declared the Manicure Lady. Most
of the time you are awful uninter
esting anyway. But ! might as well
finish this yarn, anyhow.
we was all setting around the
parlor like we used to when we was
kids at a party, all waiting for some
body else to speak first, when the old
man that father had brought home
spoke up and said something about
believing explicitly in the theory. Of

Reasons Why.

Probably Mr. Milo thought his Venus
too fat or too thin, and asked her why
she didn't get another make Of corset.
Doubtless there were times before she
got a divorce. when GIrs. Caruso said
10 herself that If Enrico warbled an
other MARBLE she would scream, and It
isn't on record that the immediate fam

In q word. he's tired Of his wife She
bores him TO death. Just her presence
Is irksome TO him, and when she goes

Jaunt II takes all the fun out OF the

This man Is no gay Lothario. He IS

honestly alarmed at the state Of af-

can do to recover the interest he once
