just moved in And say" continued the
apartment house man. in a confidential
voice. you would be surprised at the
fun they've furnished the other tenants.
In the first place they don't suppose
that anybody knows even suspects, that
they're just married. They think they
have their secret hidden, and that all the
neighbors imagine they've been married
eight or ten years.
"On the morning when they came in 1
heard the young husband talking to the
janitor When any of us talk to the
jantor We do not use diplomacy. We
threaten to use a club. There are JAM
tors and janitors. Well. i heard this
young man say please to our janitor. l
knew something was wrong right then.
Nobody ever says please to our janitor
unless he wants to lose every particle of
influence.
"'Please bring up those heavy chairs
from the storeroom,' said the young hus-
band
"'Yassuh,' said the janitor. You all
is been married quite a while, amt your
Yes, said the young husband with
dignity, instead of kicking the janitor.
We'll. it took the darkey three hours
and a half to get those chairs into
young husbands apartment. He scraped
the hall paper with one of the chair legs
and got dollar tip.
THE next morning when l started to go
to work he was holding her like they do
in the last act of romantic drama.
There was a strident Smacking sound as
opened my door and the couple leaped
apart like a pair of timid chamois. Then
the young husband looked at me as if
had done him mortal injury. And bid
ding his wife formal farewell, he start
ed toward the door.
II didn't hear much about them until
that night at dinner. Then, just as my
wife and I were sitting down at table,
there came to our ears a slithering smash
and a high pitched shrek.
1.-THE young husband came boiling into
our apartment with his hair standing on
end.
"'ouickr he called. Precious has cut
herself
so my wife and l went over and found
Precious-who was the young wife-sit-
ting despondently in the midst of mass
of broken crockery and bandaging a
scratch on her arm.
AT sight of my wife she arose and
burst into tears. My wife fixed her arm.
which wasn't seriously cut. Then the
young lady bleated out:
why won't they raise? l can't make
my waff1es raise!'
My wife stopped and examined some
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1914-05-31

of the dough which was lying upon the
floor Then she spoke gently.
Y our waffies don't raise, she said,
because you are trying to make waff1es
out of biscuit dough-
well, that was only the beginning.
One day the young wife put on ham to
boil and walked out and caused the land
lord an anxious half hour as he walked
around trying to find out who had start
ed combination fat rendering establish
ment and crematory on the premises.
after the ham had burned up they
hired cook. l met the cook coming out
of their door one evening with enough
provisions in her basket to feed three
families. I then became convinced that
they would soon go to board, as they did,
since the cook had walked off with about
everything edible they had i'll the house.
They remind you Of two children playing
at keeping house"
Then the apartment house mans grin
returned with redoubled force.
Gosh he chuckled, ut is funny to
see the airs that they can put on. 1t
gets me-.
Late that night as the Observer start
ed home he saw preparations being made
to advertise a wedding. The automobiles
which were to take the party to the
station were decorated, and the bridal
auto looked like the queen OF the May
with a tin can tied to her.
The Observer stood aside as the revel-
ers burst from the house. There was
rice and there We're shoes until the front
walk looked like a New York church
after an /. w. w. convention. The two
who were married-whose whole hope in
life now lay in their desire for seclu-
sion-fied down the pathway with the
whole whooping, horn-tooting, yelling
pack coming behind.
In the darkness a rather disreputable
looking hobo sided up to the Observer
and eyed the scene. The automobiles
drove away with the hideous racket Of
horn and tin can and tin pan.
SAY, 'bo,'' he said, "ain't it funny wot
some people'l stand for when they git
nutty on this marriage stuff?"
That may have something to do with
the situation or may not. The Observer
c,nnot fell. BOBBIE HILL.

For protecting the Miami river valley
in Ohio from future floods such as that
by which it was devastated in the spring
of 1913, complete system of dry
reservoirs has been planned, enabling
legislation has been passed by the Ohio
legislature, and the work of actual con-
