The Confessions of a Wife
Dick Takes the Helm

Lets go over TO the hospital, dear, ,
said Dick, when | had finished. When
we arrived Mary was better and the
doctor said | might see her.
Dick and ] decided that | should tell
her that he knew and would do every
thing a brother could for her; that |
should tell her about the baby and
let her decide about Jack
Poor little girl, Her face looked so
thin and pale
Have you sent for Jack?" was her
eager question.
Not yet, | answered
II am so glad: he must not be
called back before he graduates. |
Will get along all right
| Immediately told her that Dick
was with me and would do every.
thing brother could for her Her
murmured: Everyone is so good TO
me"
She never asked for her baby. but
there was a wistful look in her eyes
and | answered II by saying Yes,
Mary dear. your baby is dead
Some people may think TO tell the
terrible news in this way was brutal,
but | cannot but think that the awful
truth is much better than subter-
fuges. To say that your loved ones
have passed away does not help the
hurt or assuage the grief-stricken
heartbeats. No soft words can pal.

the end-it is death-that is all
Mary's hand reached out TO me for
sympathy. but TO her her living hus
band was more than the babe who
was dead, and she said: Poor Jack.
He will never forgive himself for let
ting me bear it alone"
She did not ask to see her child
and | knew that she had been so con.
cerned for her husbandlover in the
long months OF waiting that her ma.
ternal instincts were hardly awake.
Who could blame her? | could not
At this moment IL seems to me that

The traces of the accident to freight
train No. $3.50, one car of which left
the irons in front of the new passen-
ger station at about IL o'clock Wednes-
day night, showed with the coming
of daylight Thursday that it was
lucky that the derailment took place
Just as the train was getting under
way. From point short distance
above the overhead bridge on Rines
hill to another near the north end
of the station the planks of the plat
form were gouged and torn, in some
places so badly that new plapks will
have to be put in, and as this train
is a fast freight it is not difficult
to imagine what would have taken
place had the accident occurred when
the train was running at full speed.
