out the other. When they are away
from each other, notes, which might
well be called letters, fly thick and
fast between them. Even the tele-
phone is resorted to to keep in touch
with one another almost every hour
Of the day.
The winning stranger soon becomes
possessed of the other woman's inner
most secrets-that she has little or
no hold, perhaps, on her husbands
heart-or of her longing for children
which have been denied her; that her
relatives-in-law We're not pleased over
her marriage with the idol of their
family, openly declaring that he could
have done better than wed girl who
was obliged to make her own way in
the world.
The agreeable stranger dimes at her
new-fOund friends home almost every
evening of the week. At last she is
invited to come there altogether. From
the outset, the husband uttered mild
protest against his wife becoming a
friend too quickly with one of whom
she knew so little. His better half
thought differently. Womanlike, she
longed for a companion to whom she
could pour out the story of her trou-
bles, fancied or real, feeling sure of
sympathy and caresses.
Being thrown constantly in the
strangers company, morning, noon and
evening, he finds his prejudice against
her surely but slowly melting. He
feels ashamed within his own heart
that he mistrusted SO charming crea-
ture Of being insincere in her likings
or intents. But mushroom friendship
which blows hot too quickly cools as
suddenly. Such wives find that the
attractive stranger whom they have
established in their homes is in real
ity more of stumbling block to their
happiness than soothing confidant.
When stranger becomes possessed
Of the secrets n good wife should keep
to herself the wife is in that other
woman's power. Her husband may
turn to her for her opinion on mat
ters on which he should properly con-
suit his wife only. Even the servants
have to be corrected for taking their
orders from her. The wife is sorely
tired. She fears to make disturb
ance about 1t, for the woman who
has gradually usurped her place with
her friends in general might divulge
the confidence reposed in her. She
realizes she has been to blame in max
ing a friend of an entire stranger all
too quickly.
Some friendships nre costly. Many
woman has paid for them with n
loss Of peace, happiness and hope. The
woman too ardent Of nature should
take heed, remembering that the new
found friend who smiles the sweetest
can also frown the darkest If she
fancles occasion demands 1t. The
honeyed-tongue can also utter sneer-
ing, aye, bitter words that cut to the
heart all the deeper because they are
uttered by one who was thought to be
friend. Real friends are not knit
together in day.

Greatness.

We can be famous for our works

Fame Is not born alone of
strength or skill,
1t sometimes comes from deaf

To petty words and faults and
loving still.
We can be rich in gentle smiles

little money,
And Croesus offs the poorest
