THE Second Wife"
SeliR.

When Tom brought his bride, Bet
| ty, home, she found placed in posi-
ton of honor on the drawing-room
table a framed photograph of his
| first wife. This photograph she dis
covered to be a deal more than the
lifeless pasteboard Of it's substance,
for it represented the spirit of devo-
ton to the memory Of the one gone
which dominated the husband and
the child left behind.
Tom, of course, was nice to Betty
but the little Gladys resented her,
and being a small person of pro-
nounced and INDUCED tastes, made
her antagonism very clear. After
the honeymoon glow had worn off
Betty found Tom becoming more and
more absorbed in Gladys, spending
much of his time with the child, and
consequently ignoring his wife.
Tom was a jeweler, and one day.
making the sale of a valuable neck
lace, he decided as he was going by
the purchasers place. to deliver 1t
himself, so he took 1t home with him
that noon and laid 1t on the drawing
room table. The day was a gala day
for Miss Gladys, who was going to
dress up" children's party. for
which Betty had provided frilly
little fairy dress, with wings and
star wand.
Gladys pranced through the house
before she went to the party, playing
she was truly fairy, and that pretty
soon she was going to spread her
shiny wings and fly away, away on.
Just then one wing seemed to feel
little slippy. Fairies wings oughtn't
to slip off, she knew. but then really
fairies had their wings longer than
she had had hers, and the wings were
more used to staying put. She
thought maybe some time hers would
be that way, IL only they would stay
on now.
Just then her sparkling eyes hap
pened on a box lying on the table
wrapped round with shiny string, that
matched the wings exactly. Invention
sprang full-f1edged from the meeting
of the eye and cord In very short
time sturdy, determined little fingers
had transferred the shiny string to
the post of fairy wing stabilizer, and
just then Mamma Betty called that ii
was time to go to the party.
AS Gladys ran off in answer, the
trim maid, who couldn't abide any
muss, came into the room and no.

The former widow was overwheln-
ingly sympathetic and followed the
doctors orders implicitly. Thus Ike's
dream was realized and he rejoiced
in unparalytic fashion when he was
alone But he reckoned without Su-
san, who, to her other virtues added
the quality of thrifty management.
She felt that the quiescent Ike was so
much wasted energy which she de-
cided to utilize without hurting him
in the least. Accordingly she turned
him into an automatic incubator, sur
rounding him with quantities of per-
fectly good eggs.
So It was that Ike really got per-
feet peace and quiet. for the widow
made a broken egg such an unpleas-
ant incident that he soon resigned
himself to the inevitable and ceased
to break them When the time ar
