might be employed to restore the en-
pire of the sultan, by opening a great
military canal 300 feet broad and 80

the scheme "a mere bubble" But in

GETTING RESULTS

After the dinner dishes were done
Mrs. CHUNKY came into the living

Of the table. CHUNKY was deep In

CHUNKY was surprised, and much in

the signs we'll enough to be cautious.'
"Why, that's little bit sudden, isn't
It? He was here to dinner with your
own cousin Susie not more than three
weeks ago and he didn't say anything
about it, at least not to me-
Maybe he didn't know it himself
then" returned Mrs. CHUNKY, "and
anyway men are not especially given
to noticing things. And such news is
usually supposed to be a surprise,
even when it isn't. Your best suit Is
really getting too shabby to wear to
any place at all. You'll just have to
stop at the tailor's and put in rush
order. The wedding is to take place
Just week from next Wednesday,"
CHUNKY snorted. Gosh! that Is in
a hurry. I'll venture the women Is
back Of it-probably afraid he'll get
away"
Mrs. CHUNKY flushed and seemed
about to make tart rejoinder, then
evidently thought better of it and held
her peace as CHUNKY continued: "You

after next, and we've either got to
have two new rear tires for the car
or quit going out, and I for one can't
afford any new clothes"
Mrs. CHUNKY assumed an injured
air. Nov, Fred" she demurred,
sweetly, "you know just as we'll as I
do, that you simply can't go in that
old suit. They'd talk about it for the
next fifty years. You Just must get a
new one!"
"That's always the way" snapped
CHUNKY glowering, Externally after mo

ago you were limiting for new dress,
too. Well, I'll give in this once. I'll

ooh, I'm so glad!" chirped Mrs.
CHUNKY, running around the table to
kiss her husband. you're such an
old dear, even if you do get little
bearish sometimes"
CHUNKY grinned and looked foolish;
he was afraid of his wife when she
acted thus. II hope can get some
thing that will go nicely with your
gray silk" he said, returning to what
he meant to be the main point.
"But, Fred, my DEAR" objected Mrs.
CHUNKY firmly, Il simply can't wear
that gray silk. I can't do it at all
it's too old and too we'll known"
1T looks very WE'LL" explained
CHUNKY half hopelessly, land, as I
said before, not one Of my people
have ever seen you with it on"
"But cousin Susan" began Mrs.
CHUNKY tragically.
Cousin SUSAN" he answered criply.
"What in the name of common sense
has she got to do with it,"
"Why, she was with me when l
picked it out, and she's the one your
cousia Is going to marry"
CHUNKY was stricken dumb for an
instant. II might have known Il" he
grumbled. I'LL bet a dollar and a
half you fixed up that wedding just
so you might have a good excuse for
demanding that very dress you asked
for a month ago."
Erred CHUNKY, you know very we'll

Mrs. CHUNKY. "And, anyway, if your
cousin Will proves to be just one-ha!f

ton, Susan ought to be thankful to
me all the days Of her life."
