Why Amusement and Shock Battled
in Madge'S Heart.


1t is one of my faults, and perhaps
my greatest misfortune, to work my
self up to an emotional height with
out having any real basis for doing
so. AS a consequence, the letting
down" is a painful and a disillusion-
ing process.
Never has this fact been broug ht
home so fOrcibly to me as it was in the
early hours of the morning when
Dicky came home to me with the
news that the United States had en-
tered the world war.
had jumped to the conclusion that
Dicky would wish to enlist at once in
his country's service. And, clinging
to him, silently fought out my battle
against my own selflshness which
would have hidden him stay, and had
emerged triumphant over myself,
ready to bear my part of whatever
burden he might wish to assume.
But, instead of the instant decision
to enlist which I confidently expected
him to make, Dicky had simply ex-
pressed a regret that he had not had
the opportunity to be present at the
session of congress when war was de-
clared!
: In my highly wrought emotiQnal
state I felt as I might If a dash OF
cold water had been thrown in my
face. For an instant, in my revul-
sion Of feeling, I wanted to shrink
away from my husband, as if I had
found him wanting in some great
test. Then sanity came back to me,
and I realized anew the great differ
ence between Dicky's temperament
and mine.
Is Dicky "Cautious?"
For underneath all Dicky's ire
sponsible impulsive temperament runs
current of caution, evidently inher-
tied from his mother, which steadies
him whenever any great issue Is to
be decided. Ny caution. on the other
hand, Is generally exercised over the
petty details of life. and I am afraid
I carry it to such an excess that I
often ruffle Dicky's more easygoing
nature, while when a, real issue comes
to me, am apt to let the usual fem
mime passion for self-immolation run
away with me.
That Dicky had not at once decided
to enlist was no indication that he
didn't mean to do so. made up my
mind to say nothing that could pos
sibly influence him one way or the
other.

that 1 would lose a great DEAL
"Oh, well,' said he, you are re-

This did not seem possible to me,

finally had to make restitution.

It's foolish to live for the millionth
chance, and it's cowardly There's
some element Of chance in every
thing in life and to be SO fearfully
afraid of chances is to be afraid of
life.
The man I described is a mon

of exaggerating the millionth chance
obsess him until he has lost all sense
of proportion. But there are MANY
who have tendency that way. Check
