Latimer recalled the wonder that al

to peer down into excavations where
men CROPPED about in crazy network
of mains and conduits, or when he
looked up to the steel Orders swinging
into place on the new skyscrapers.
Only now and then would he catch
sight of heavy sledge in play, or the
heave of muscles. AS rule men
moved about in the tangle of cloaca
as if engaged in an elaborate minuet.
He saw men poised on the end Of a
steel beam 90 through a graceful cal
isthenics, with a measured wave of
the arm, now this way, now that way.

Mr.. BOwser had been casting furtive
glances at Mrs. Bowser for quarter
Of an hour, when he observed:
"Mrs. Bowser, you look dragged out"
Sand that is the way l feel" she
YEARLY replied.
"Iou need day off occasionally to
reJuvenate you. You stay ut home too
much. Why don't you take a walk !;
why don't you ride out into the country

spend a whole day at the stores, in
stead Of racing down and back as If
you expected the house to burn down
If you did not hustler"
ut is easy enough to ask questions.
Hr. BOwser, and l can answer all Of
them In very few words-I don't

"Iou mean the Homework keeps you

THAT'S just what / mean. We keep

keep track of things, and there is work
enough here for two women. 1t isn't
Ike chOpping wood or digging in the
ditch, but it keeps n woman busy most
Of her time, and when night comes she
feels dragged out"
Mr.. BOwser chewed on the above for
several minutes and then remarked :
"Yes, of course, there are a few
things to be done, but If you had a
system about your work have an idea
that you would reduce it one-half."
Every woman has SYSTEM" re-
tOrted Mrs. BOwser, "and she follows
Ii as well as she can, but the bother Is
that things happen to interrupt her
system. For instance, have a system
about getting the breakfast ready. !
have to stop that system about half a
dozen times every morning to help you
get dressed. Your necktie and collars
have been left any old where and your
shoes down here when you went to
bed. You make me about half an
hours extra work most every morning,
and then you come down to your
breakfast in such hurry that you
upset the cook. What are you going
to do with system that calls you to

dozen times a day. to find peddler or
a tramp at the dOOr?"

BOwser after spell of thinking. Bust

season of the year, and 1 can just as
well take couple of weeks off as not.
For those two weeks I will turn house

it grows any larger. Did l tell you
that the banisters of the stair ought to

Mrs. BOwser departed for the day,
and Mr.. Bowser went to work. She
returned about five o'clock in the eve
ming, and there was no Mr.. Bowser
around the house. She called and
called but she called in vain. She
descended to the kitchen and queried
of Sarah. and the answer was:

"That will be very kind of you." re-
piled Mrs. Bowser, but there was a

"Yes?' queried Mr.. Bowser, as a

"You will wake me up, and then
