wanted him hody and soul.
To my harr5ssed mind and heart came
disturbing doubts as to my ability to
make Bob break off his friendship i'm
mediately with John Kendall the editor
whose society Bob seemed to enjoy.
Not that 1 doubted the final outcome;
but l wanted to accomplish my ends
without friction between Bob and me.
How was [ to suppose that my society
was less stimulating than that of these

been doing all day; what Della had
said or done.

making Della a frequent subject of
conversation.
a no slightest idea that Bob would
ever tire of me; weary of my society;
be out of sympathy with nv idea of
making cur home the only place for
which he cared. 1 never dreamed that
he would crave the bohemia he knew
SO well before his mother passed away.
n L met him; that he would miss his
writer friends, the artistic people to
whom he had been devoted. I felt a
seorn OF all these things as paling into
significance beside the sanetity Of our
home; our love and duty to each other.
Duty had feen a slogan with me for
some time, even before 1 met Bob. 1
guess when :. girl doesn't marry until
nearly thirty she becomes different in
her outlook Upon life. Bob hated the
word and ofter said:
eve owe a duty to ourselves. individ-
ually. Don't forget that in your con-
slant harpiny upon what we owe to
each other" he remarked after I told
him as gently as 1 could that it was his
duty to me his wife to give up all for
me; as 1 was willing to give up all for
him.

/ replied sensentiously.
mo we are mott we are two separate
personalities-thank God. can YOU inn
agine anything more awful, Margaret,
than living with someone who thought
as you thought about everything: who
had no mind of his own7 I can't5y
81 think you are looking at it from
a wrong angle, Bob. You win change
your mind I am sure after you see how
happy / shall make you if YOU do as I
am willing to do" always I came back
to the same subject.

Michael J. Gallery, police captain in

championship.
Gallery, according to officials in

His son Tom was chased by a police
man who didn't know him when he
tried to- get into the park Saturday.
Yesterday, several young men were
seen to approach ticket takers or po-

Gallery squared himself with Pres

After Bob left | wandered d~isconso-
lately from room to room, wondering
what | should do with myself until Sun.
day night. Tears of self-pity filled my
eyes as l aeJectedly gazed out of the
window. 1t was a lovely afternoon and
the thought that l might run over to
Elsie s came to me, but 1 thrust it
aside. l would go nowhere, have no one
save of course father and mother
whom l had foolishly invited-in while
Bob was away. l would show him that
L eoHldn I be happy without him; that /
cared for no enc s society but his.
L realize low that this was a pose,
and q ridiculous one; and that 1 man
aged to get an unholy joy from the de
baueh of self-pity in which l INDUCED
But at that time my sorrow was very
real; and my plans were made honest
ly because | thought that in no other
way could l be happy. And if l were
made happy simply by Bob's constant
society, he OF COURSE would be happy
and care for nothing save to be with
me so soon IS l could wean him from
some of his bachelor friends.
Another thing which annoyed me was
that Bobis choice of friends led him
ito think ans talk of things for which
1 cared nothing. 1 liked books, was fond
of reading; hut not the queer psychic
logical stuff that Bob and his friends
seemed to enjoy discussing. If he saw
less of them he would soon become will
ing to read with me the sort Of stories
and books which interested us both.
1 planned how we would read aloud
evenings, and 1 would perfect myself
in chess. Yes I decided, 1 would do all
these things TO pleasure Bob, then he
would willingly give up these men
friends who, 1 felt were a menace to
my happiness

One rainy day Herr Dingleswatter,
the great musical composer and also the
stingiest man in three counties, was
walking along the street.
1t was raining.
With his eyes on the ground, and his
ears in the air, listening, Herr Dingles-
waiter was waiting for a strain of some
sort in which he could work a theme
for his new ,peretta, T'Rabledona."
After stabblng umbrellas, Herr Din

conversation that he knew the young

"Oh, the great Herr Dingleswatter,

glad I've met you at last. Will you
mind giving me a small remembrance

And the great composer, happened to
glance at the young lady'G brand new

cotton one, hastily %thrusting his in her
hand, said: '"Why, certainly, certainly,
my dear young lady, we will exchange
umbrellas!"
