 Have you ever Incl the husband. of the timid. suppressed type, who d. ways answers his wife's oall with Ives, my dear" "uo. my drar,' or just in a moment. my dear" It is never the sweet "dear" that drops gently into a sentence like a caroSS. His ''Iuy dear" with its monotouoUs iteration of a phouograph record seems a continuous phrase of plucarjug. II is not affec- tiOn. it is just fear; il seems a pleading deprecatory gesture of the voice as if trying to dodge a rebuEe or a lecture as one iuvoluu-ariIy wards off an at- tack with the upr0ised arm. You somehow feel that you should take him into cozy corner and soothe him, and tell him not Jo be afraid, that you will protect him.
 When you are alone with him he may talk easily. cleverly and well; the stream of his conversation runs smooth and free like a mountain brook but 1t suddenly trickles into irrelevant CommOnplaces when his wife enters the room, the whole atmosphere seems changed. and you vaguely wonder who shut off the water supply. You do not like the surreptiriouS way he covers his lighted cigar with his hat; 1t seems too much like a child caught with it's hand In the sugar bowl. He can never tell you definitely whether he can go out tomorrow night: he will let you know later and you feel that he has already begun 10 plan how he can secure his wife's COunterSlgn to his pass. Even when he is doing what Is absolutely right and harmless he becomes wonder ously fertile in lying excuses, those conversational capsules to sweeten the breath of suspicion. His Ill-cOnCealed joy when his wife has to go out of town for day or two is not mere confession; it is a condensed biog- raphy.
 Sometimes it is the husband, in assertion of authority, who plays the poor, petty role of do- nestle tyrant. He dictates, he de mands, he threatens, he fOrbids, he is- sues his orders as ultimatums in a manner that would be unwarranted even were he a pirate captain haran- guing his crew.

The Riddles were Of Laurie Ilk, aS Scotch folk say and they had gone to some consider able pains to get the story o5 the song straight, as there had been consider able contention about iJ. Here it is:
 "Jean Rlddeu lrhe name later spelled RlddIe) was married to Sir Robert Laurie, the first barouet Of Maxw"Iton. One of their daughters WAS Annie Lau- rle, celebrated iu Scotch song.
 Annie Laurie was famed for her beauty and cieyrgHrSs, aud was social 1ayorite in all the country round about, so It was not at all surprising that she captvated a Mir Douglas of England, 6 man Of culture and of letters, who composed the song bearing her name. . 'But seeing that the course of true love does not run smoothly, she mar rled a Nr. GurgeSSou, leaving Mir. Douglas to his hunting and his verses.
 "To this day many pilgrims go to Maxwelton, drawn thjther by the much loved song, Annie Laurie Many also visit CraIgdorroch. where she spent her married life iu comfort"
