place my husband did. Joe won't
take me. or you better believe he'd
get no chances to lunch or dine with
other women.-that is unless I was
along" she added as i made no
reply.
But, Mrs. Baldwin" commenced
to argue, II do not believe a man
should have any interest outside OF
home and his necessary business at
fairs. If I join Mr.. Garrett in his
outings with people Of whom / do not
approve l have no argument left
against his going. No, trust my
husband absolutely. In time he will
see that am right. and be willing to
give up people of whom I disap-
prove"
II wish had your faith---for
your sake" she replied. mo. you
are wrong" she went on after a
moments silence. mo man who is
interested in the vital things OF life;
who Graves the companionship of
clever men and women will ever be
made TO give them up by the tao
ties you propose. You had far bet
ter give up your ideas of domestic
felicity alone with him. and become
his companion. IL you do not there
are plenty OF charming women who
will. And you aren't so young that
you do not know what the result is
sure TO be-"
you mean to intimate that shall
lose my husband" l demanded. In

rose from the table, ''or does he
never give you occasion?" I added
rather disagreeably. I am afraid.
"When I was first married I made

cuse him of being with other women,
and all sorts OF things. until one day
he told me that he had had the
name, and that he would hereafter
have tho game. 1t was "A vulgar
way of putting 1t. but 1t woKe me
up, and ever since then l have been
busy trying to show him that he
needn't be uncomfortable with me.
But" she hesitated, II waited too
long. / was too late. The mischief
had already been done. Now / live
In hope that some day he will return
to me, keep watch of him. l know
what he is doing. but he does not
mistrust that do. | am telling you
this Mrs. Garrett so that you won't
make my mistakes, l like you,
know your type. the home girl who
has never been accustomed to the
gayer side OF life; a side that is just
as wholesome, just as true as is tn,
strictly domestic side IL a man and
wife can enjoy 1t together, But tc

1t Is fatal.
After Mrs. Baldwin left, which sh,
