The differences of opinion which caus

situations we easily could have
avoided.
our acknowledged differences proved

Jacks pride was one of these. Ny
extravaganza was another.
Hy husband was proud of his pride.
He had promised before our wedding to
be superior to jealousy. After marriage,
if Jack ever were jealous of Bart, or of

not SO different from the ordinary man.
And every time the idea occurred to me
I'd think of Mrs Herrod. and wonder II
chess were the sole bond between her
and Jack.
And I'd half decide Jack did not
get jealous because he really didn't
love me TO the exclusion OF all women

Somehow my fine theory about ultra
modern love between husbands and
wives was proving bit shaky. Although
had set out 10 follow the new ideas
about marriage l wasn't equal TO the
strain of them.

As a taxpayer, wishing to observe the
law and at same time believing taxes
should be fairly distributed, l would
like to have explained by some one
properly informed. why 1t is that taxes
are so out Of proportion to the value
OF property taxed. Is there no stand
and by which the taxpayer shall render
the valation? Should one estimate 1t
by what 1t cost to replace. another by
what forced sale would bring, and
yet another give in but q fraction OF
his property and that at the lowest
possible valuation?

the various business firms and famil-
les OF this city, and especially to one
familiar with valuations placed on in.
