Chapter CIVIL.

l was much impressed by "The
Tyranny of Tears, which was played
at the theater where Harry Symone,
his wife and l went last night. Per-
haps would not have been so great
ly interested, if l had not been with
the Symones and known Eliene's pre-
objection for tears and of Harry's an
tipathy for them.
The story is of the woman who
found early in her married life that
her husband would do anything for
her if she only shed few tears. She
worked this little game in and out of
season; consequently when the hus-
band met a woman who was not so
selfish, and who had a normal view
point of life, he naturally became very
much interested in her and finally
the interest grew into love.
1 caught Harry looking at Eliene
a number of times rather curiously
and 1 knew from the way that she
fidgeted in her chair that many of
the truths had struck home. l know
there are times when the overcharged
nerves and aching heart can only be
relieved by tears but a woman
should be very chary of allowing her
self this luxury except in the privacy
of her own room with no one but her
self as spectator of her grief.

THE CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
"WEEP AND YOU WEEP ALONE"

Mrs. Selwyn, who seems to be the
wisest woman | have ever known,
talked to me a little on this subject
the other day. She said:
"Margie, writers have had much
to say about the exquisite poetry of
tears. The truth Of the matter is
there is nothing poetical about them,
and, while your husband or your
dearest friends may sympathize with
you upon the occasion of an infre-
quent paroxysm of grief or temper,
they will become perfectly cold or
even incensed when one calls upon
the overfowing tear ducts too fire.

used in international law for want of a
better. 1t means the blockade of ports
Of another country in time of peace

act Of war without regard to the mo-
tive Of future intentions, but as a
means of reprlsal or of compelling the
