CONFESSIONS.
} OF A WIFE

kind to me, I will say that
for him, and now l am doing
this horrible thing to his
wife. but surely / am telling
you nothing new, and per-
haps you will find out some
way to make him the man he
might be. He will only be-
come something wholly de-
spicable If he trains with US
much longer. Keep him
away from drink Keep him
away from Eleanor Tairlow
If you want to keep him your
self.
Just Namelsss One.
What shall l do, little book?
There Is no one to whom / can
go to but you, and you never ad-
wise.
Notwithstanding all that wom-
an has said, do not believe Dick
ever does anything wrong. except
when he Is drinking. If / could
keep him away from drink" l
am sure that he would be, ell
right. Oh, little book, title book,
l believe that almost all the sor-
row and sin of the world would be
wiped out If We could just put al
cchol out of 1t. When this world
sees total and absolute prohibition
and abstinence it will see the be-
ginning of the millennium.
/ am sure Dick loves me when
her is sane and sober, but when
his mind and nerves are over
stimulated by alcohol he y not
accountable.
l expect that I might give this
letter to some detective and find
out all about the writer and per-
haps enough evidence for the di-
vorce court. But | can confess TO
you, little book, that am AFRAID
that IL should do this Dick would
go straight to the devil. 20
After a woman marries asHnan
and her love gets beyond the first
paroxysm Of passion, there To- al
ways a maternal note In 1t.
Woman knows herself to be
stronger than a man. She consti-
tutes herself. not only the protsc-
tion of bis name and his honor,
but Of himself. 20
can't leave Dick to himself be-
cause---bscause love him. -~--.--

Dear Miss Grey: The
other day an agent, whom l
had hoped never to see
again, came to my house.
The fellow was In the
habit Of calling here when I
was alone. l knew 1t was
wrong to let him come any
longer, SO the last time he
was here l kept him standing
on the steps in the rain. He
thought | was very cruel.
Miss Grey, he was not
cold; he just wanted to come
in and flirt with me. Did
do right in not asking him
in? My husband is very
good to me, and as true as
ever q husband could be.
This fellow is very good
looking and / think so much
of him that l thought it
would be better not to see~
hi many more, as it is hard
telling what might happen.
] told him he had better not
come any more. Thanking
you, w. f.

social interest in me. I
think 1t is wrong to marry
without love, but society for
bids me to show my love for
the other man. l cannot be
an old maid, SO what am to
do? MARY.
Await. And while you are

ried may lead a full and busy

There are three excellent reasons
why Resinol Soap appeals 20 strongly
: to the mother who wishes to protect
her baby's delicate skin from the
eruptions and which sooften
make life miserable for little folks:
1t gives a free, creamy and unusu-
ally cleansing lather, In either hard
or soft water.
Its ingredients are pure and utterly
wholesome, with no trace Of free
alkali-that harsh, drying chemical
which many soap-makers find too
difficult and expensive to remove.

OF all the despicable things or

the most despicable.

letter and remained the same

the contents of which / hardly
dare trust to you, little book. The
awful part of 1t is, / cannot even
show it to Dick, for-little book
II am afraid-afraid to even let
Dick know that someone has
dared to invade my faith and trust
in him. And yet this letter has
some semblance of truth.
Here is the letter. What would
you, little book, think of it?
Mrs. Richard Waverly:
Yes, you have the name
and you wear 1t proudly,
more so, perhaps, than IL you
knew that 1t is all you have
from Dick Waverly.
You certainly have not his
love, for that which he calls
love is distributed among
many women, OF which l am
one of the fifty-seven va
rieties. You have not his con-
sideration, for he leaves you
to take what pleasure you
may among your friends,
while he drinks and carouses
with men and women he
would not introduce to you.
He Is not true to you in
word, thought or deed;
neither is he true to that old
love of his, Eleanor Fairlow.

jealousy, not of you-you
white impregnable woman
but of us. But for us-not
YOU she thinks he might be
with her.
why am / writing this to
you?

is for the reason that he

like an old shoe, and paid
his wine-drenched attention

A man has come to this country
from abroad to advocate vegetarian

who has never practiced anything
but vegetarianism. 1t is a good thing
and we are in favor of everybody not
eating any meat who doesn't want It.
But there are other reforms Just al
good. We might discard the dessert
and fare better. The reason for re-
sorting to dessert is to enable one 10
eat more than he ought to eat. For
instance. after eating roast beef, pe-
tatoes and bread. can a man resist
piece OF pie? Morally he ought to.
but physically he couldn't.
Eating too much is materfalism !,
It's worst form, and 1t does more 10
oiunt the senses and to saueloh noble
aspiration than any of the other
habits, and the dessert Is its guardian
angel. So dessert is a superHuity r

Perhaps 1t was Only fate. perhaps It
was the God to whom the grandmere's
prayers were rising, but the man who
saw the baby hands and the blue corn
flowers was the man Of war. A sud

of all the pounding hoofs. Bending
down from his horse, the man OF war
took the blossoms, and ON his lips was
a word the childish ears had never
heard spoken in a tongue he could not
understand: 'Kaiserbfumen!"
"Honneur, Patrie, Gloire." The va
liant words rested curiously upon the
baby lips, but in an instant the intel
lect before which the entire world was
trembling understood. Honor-Glory--
