TRY KISSING YOUR WIFE
WHEN SHE DOESN'T EXPECTT 1T
This Is The Adpice Giuen Man Who Is Searching Vainy
for a Thril-The Experience Brought Romance
Back to One Woman

A MAN had complained, somewhat
"A facetiously. that he could no longer
get a thrill out Of anything.
'If you want to give n thrill as well
as share it," suggested woman who
heard him, "try kissing your wife
sometimes when she is expecting any
thing but that"
my husband did It once, all Of
sudden, under an electric light in
Mount Pleasant street in Washington,
and we got caught by my brother-in-
law and I felt five years younger"
The pages of her life were turned
back in that moment to the chapter
in the early part which seemed to be
made up entirely of thrills of this
kind.
1t wasn't unexpected then to receive
n kiss from her husband it happened
any time at all. but each one was more
delightful than the last.
As the days and years went on she
grew accustomed to them, and so did he.
She didn't get tired of them and
they never lost their meaning, but they
became usual There was none of that
element Of surprise" which can make
the most commonplace occurrence in
tcrcsting.

MTSO SUICIDES
FROM GRIEF OVER
KINGS DEATH

s Athens.-The late King Alexan-
der's chauffeur, Mitso Dimitriades,
has committed suicide from grief
over the death Of the king, which,
II will Be recalled. was the result
Of = monkeys bite.
! Mitso was King Alexander's in
separable companion on all his au-
tomobile rides and motoring was
the kings fad. Alexander was, per-
haps, the most affable sovereign in
Europe and had q talent of making
everybody feel at home. He was al
ways very kind to all the members
of his household, but seemed more
strongly attached to Mitso than to
any Of the others.
When Alexander felt death ap-
preaching he called Mitso to his
bedside and gave him . small gold
cross which the king had worn all
his life. After the kings death,
Mitso became inconsolable. The
other night while contemplating a
photograph of the king he shot
himself. A wreath sent BY Madame
Manos. King klexander's widow,
was one of the floral offerings at
his funeral.
