Dick carried me down the
stairs, and the butler did not
drop dead" when he saw my XII
mona and Dicks business suit
but, on the contrary, he seemed
very solicitous about me.
Il think we should be going
back to the hotel" said Dick after
we had gotten settled in the
library after dinner. "You know
we have been here two weeks"
Aunt Mary looked at me as
much as to say, This is the time
for you to breach the housekeep-
ing project"
6"Dick, would you like to keep
house?" I asked.
Not on your life" answered
Dick. Il haven't the money nor
the inclination to put on dog
every minute"
Poor Dickl That is what his
to him-a place that is built, fur
nished and kept up merely for
the sake of impressing someone
one cares nothing about.
But Dick, that is not the kind
of a house / want to keep, l re-
monstrated. 81 would very much
like to take a modest little apart
ment and Annie says she will
come and help me-"
=. Dick looked rather surprised
and somewhat disconnected that
had talked with Annie about ii
before speaking to him.
"You see," l went ON hastily,
Annie is going to leave her hus-
band and she intended getting q
place. so / thought I'D tell her
that perhaps we would go to
housekeepinA"
49, But you will be alone when
am gone"
II have told Margie that I'D
come and stay with her." spoke
up Aunt Mary quickly.
"But-but-Jack and Mary?"
eputtered Dick.
Il may as well tell you. dear,
ETaek and Mary. Jack is staying
out every night. and. of course,
that makes Mary cross. Aunt
Mary has used up all her income
in trying to keep things going.
You know, Dick. we promised
Uncle John to make Aunt Mary
as happy as possible.
Dick has a tender heart, even
If he is a little thouEhtless. and
the idea that Aunt Mary was not
happy as she might be made him

better TO live with than Jack and

81 think So" answered Aunt
Mary, in a trembling voice.
will you take a chance on it?"
he asked as he went over and
kissed her.
81 certainly WILL" she answered
as her arms chung to him. Il
think it will do both Jack and
Mary good to have to depend upon
themselves, said Aunt Mary as
we discussed ways and means of
putting our plans into effect.
They have a beautiful apartment
and every possible thing that /
could do for them l have done"

that scalawag Jack has hac
things made too easy for him,
and I'll simply 60 to him tomor-
row and tell him that from now
on he must spend his money on
his wife and home instead of run
ming about town. I am disap-
pointed in Mary, too. I thought
she would be more of a help to
him."
You must not blame Mary,
Dick" said Aunt Mary Loyalty.
"She is doing the best she can.
Poor child! she has never had any
sort of training that would fit her
to be either a wife or mother, but
I think she would learn IL Jack
would behave himself and take a
little responsibility. Sometimes l
think his love for Mary was only
sudden fancy that Is quickly
passing"
I'VE made a mistake in counte-
nancing his marriage" said Dick.
That was one mistake we did
not make" | Interrupted We
could do nothing else than recog-
nize Mary as Jacks wife. and for
one I am not going to blame her
for his misdemeanors.s

said Dick with a laugh as he call
ed the wooden-faced butler, and
between them they carried me up
stairs.

it ALL" That is the exact phrase
which concludes dozens of letters
from girls and women of all
ages.
1t seldom happens that the
writer's really need advice. What
they should have is a new light
on their troubles and a great
deal of sympathy.
Perhaps the very best thing to
do in any case of melancholia is
to tell somebody all about it.
Very often the morbidness
which produces the suicidal ma
mia is at first nothing more than
thinking in a circle. It is not al
ways the suffering of her soul
which incIines the discouraged
woman to take her own life, al
though she Invariably thinks II
Is. The cause often has moth
ing to do with soul at all, but is
some form of physical depres-
sion.
For this there is no better
cure than a simple one which
costs nothing but the time and
the will to take it. An hour 9
