not much-just a little at the
butchers and grocer's. 1t came
about this way. One day l wanted
more than | had money to pay
for, and the butcher said:
Get what you want, Mrs. Will
Jams, and I'll send in a bill"

A decision favorable to the first alternative

capture of the Islands from the Spanish involved

The WOMAN HE Married
BY JANE PHELPS,

( would look in certain things, how
such and such colors became me,
and what good taste / had, how
very stylish | would look if |
| could dress as / should. This in
variably meant in materials and
workmanship far beyond our
/ means.
Dick was a kind, a considerable
| husband. lie never gave me O
cross word, nor was he at all crit
zeal of my many mistakes, al
though he must have wondered
at times why a girl brought up
so simply should make them.
Now his thoughtfulness of me
was wonderful. lie not only earn
ed the living, but he insisted upon
doing all the heavy work. He was
so afraid | would override that he
got up an hour earlier, terribly
hard thing for him, so that he
might do as much as possible be-
fore he left for the office.
While | was not ungrateful for
his help, nor unappreciative of
his kindness, | was always wonder
ing WHY he couldn't earn more.
If he did | could have a maid, and
he wouldn't have to do house
work.
Many times I was tempted to
tell Dick of the bills hidden away
in the bureau drawer. Not large
ones to be sure, yet quite an
amount in the aggregate. But as
many times my courage failed.
Instead / got deeper and deeper
into debt, until | was really afraid
to tell him.
Somehow | must have some
money--and soon. Those bills
must be paid before | became nm
able to attend to them. The trades
men, too, were becoming impa-
tlent. One of them had dunned
me over the telephone, and morti-
ned me almost to death. Later
didn't mind little thing like that

quaintances. / am sure husbands
and wives would live far more
happily could they omit the con-
slant straining after social posi-
uon with its attendant extrava-
ganees of entertainment and dress.
But | had this to learn, as have

that never could be really
