Mrs. Roster. why. did you have this

Mr.. Scott.

she said.

your husband back and told you that
your husband and Mildred Reckitt were
alone, why did you 80 to his ofice?"

Once more Mrs. Rosters head fell
forward. She buried her head In her
hands and sobbed aloud.
"Will you say. Mrs. Roster, whether
or not II was the habit Of your hus.
band to wear glasses at all times?"
''Yes, he wore them at all tines"
