Letter From John Alden Prescott tt
 His Friend. sydney Carton.

His Friend. sydney Carton.
 Dear Syd:
 You are a friend. Til tell the world. I didn't care what you called me after I saw tho check. It made quite a sub stantial payment on my stock Tn fact, the dividend was much more than I expected, consequently I was able to give the firm the check for the full amount due from mo.
 Some way, Syd, I don't seem to realize yet. when am, away from Leslie. that l am married at all. expect I shouldn't let a fascinating fapper fill my eye when l pass her on the street know would be jeal- ous as the devil of Leslie if thought she was smiling at any man, young or old.
 Habits are stronger than marital ethics, however. and have a great sympathy for that old fellow who said, "The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak"
 Then l am worried, l must own if, Syd. am terribly worried over Paula Perrier don't mind telling you that those letters are rather com promising and lately she has been acting very quaerly.
 wonder what Leslie would do if Paula should send them to her. (She laughingly promised to do so the other night if I neglected hcr.)
 Sometimes l am ready 10 make q clean breast of 1t to my wife. ] .t.z J l,e night when Leslie, apropos to some thing we were talking about, said that she did not think either q hus- band or wife had any business with the others past; all one could ask of the other was that the present and future be his or hers in like devotion, loyalty and trust.
 I really should have told her then. but that very day that asinine florist had sent his bill to the house instead Of my office and on it was the six teen dollars he had stung mo for a basket of flowers. I had sent 1t 10 Paula when she had written me q sad little letter, saying she was sick and asking me to call upon her.
 Ii seemed 10 me at that time that sixteen dollars was very Ilttle 10 pay Tor the privilege of staying away from her. but the notation that Leslie had put on tho bottom Of the bill was. The florist must have made mis- i ake. I have not received basket of flowers" This put an entirely differ .nt complexion on the fool gift. ]
 You could sne, old scout, how much ,hancc I would have had. after she had seen that bill. or making Leslie believe that I cared nothing moro for raula now when told her of the endcr passages between us before marriage and she had proof that ] vas still interested to the value of six con dollars.

Letter From Alice Hamilton to Her
 Sister. Leslie Prescott.

Letter FrOn, Alice Hamilton to HcI ! Sister. Leslie Prescott. Very Dear, Though Meddling Sister of Mine:
 If you feel that way about it, don't come to New York to see me off, for Karl is coming over with us. I told mother it would be all right
 for you to say goodby by letter as expected some sort of a complication Seriously though, think I'd better have talk with you. For heavens sake, don't divide your pearl beads with anyone. don't mind telling you that there is a. most peculiar history connected with them and some time someone
 may come to you and ask you to give them back.
 Let's say they wore the som hing borrowed" instead of the something new" that you wore on your wedding day.
 Somehow, l have a hunch that you will have to return them to me some day, that I may give them back. You see the person from whom I obtained them may be sorry that I gave them to you and, besides, that person told me he had them for long time and was very fond of them because he had intended them for the woman he had loved.
 He was very sad and despairing then and I almost felt that if I did rot take them he might throw them away, so anxious was he to get rid Of them.
 However. you must know. Leslie. that Time is a great healer and even the most devoted of lovers may love again. Perhaps this man might do so and If he did. it would be quite romantic to tell his bride the story and give her the beads. If would mako her feel. you know. that after all he was giving his great love to her.
 If you como 10 sec me off don't you interfere with Kar1's trip 10 England. IT you do, I'll make a scene. ] let you run your affairs. my, dear sister. Please let mo run mine. There is such thing as noblesse oblige even for pokey old sisters.
 Notwithstanding what I am saving. I still love you and will probably cry my eyes out if do not see you way ing to me from tho dock as tfe boat sails. ALICE.
