Dear Miss Lee Some time ago, read a

ways willing for different ones to express
their opinion l would like to tell her mine.
As l realize now l have a kind, loving
thoughtful. economical wife. But 1t took
me long time to see ii and I know she
suffered many heartaches.
She did not nave any confidence in me
Why should she have had? / would give her
enough money barely to buy the groceries
and pay the bills, and sometimes not enough
for that. If she would try to reason with
me, would only swear. She did not have c
penny extra. she wanted me TO save, and
she wanted to know what did with the
money, and l would only swear and tell her
she knew. But how did she knowY I
never showed her my bank book, check
book or old checks.
Men, your wife has right to know
where every penny goes. Mine knows every
thing now. We read eaclr others letters.
talk over money matters, plan and figure to-
gether. Since we know we are not trying to
keep anything from each other. we are both
happy. But it took nearly seven years.
Now. men. wish you all could benefit by
this. and | am sure your wives would be
happy. Give them a little extra spending
money. They deserve it. Think what they
do for you and put up with. never had
anything to do with any other woman but
my wife didn't know but what I was keep
ing one with my money. So good luck to
all. "A HOME OWNER AND HAPPY.

ton was never in love with Paula. ~
Loyalty?
That's right; keep it up, Jack.
You're as loyal to your friend as you
ever were"
you don't seem to dislike him
either, Leslie"
Neither do / dislike Miss Perier,
Jack, and although I liked her very
much on short acquaintance I tell you
honestly I think I like Sydney Carton
more. I never could conceive of him
having a grand passion for Paula
Perier."
Lets not talk about either of them
any more, Leslie. I hope this whole
Perier storm is blowing over"
'Was there a storm? I didn't know
it," And then, Sgd, that blessed WON
an linked her arm in mine and said:
Come on, Jack; let's go into the
nursery and see our boy"
L felt my eyes grow moist and my
conscience kept saying: You don't
deserve it, you don't deserve it,
Goodby, old man, until the next
time. JACK.

LETTER FROM JOHN ALDEN
PRESCOTT TO SYDNEY
CARTON

Well, it's all over, old man. Paula
has been here and gone. She has
come into my house and held her own
child II. her arms, while 1 walked
UP and down on the other side Of the
street and cursed myself as I have
never cursed in all my life any one or
anything.
One moment I was afraid 1 would
see Paula come out of the door walk
ing away with little John, the next
moment I almost wished she would,
anything, so she would get out Of my
house.
Pretty soon. however, she came out
and got into her car, with an inscru-
table look on her face. I could not
tell whether she was going to make
trouble or let things lie.
Tells of Visit
1t seemed hours before I could get
up courage enough to go into the
house, but when 1 did Leslie met
me quite as cordial as ever, telling
me Paula had been there and that
she would like to have had me come
home before she left.
For moment my knees trembled;
then I sat down on a chair and man
aged to find the voice to ask what
Paula said.
"She talked mostly about little
Jack" she answered frankly, land
I was glad to be able to let her hold
her child in her arms"
Her child. Leslie" I was stupid
enough to inquire.
"Oh, of course, I know we have
adopted it, but it is preposterous to
try to make me think the child does
not belong to Paula Perier."
"She did not say SOP" 1 asked trem-
blingly.
Certainly she did not. Women
don't do those things"
IT thought they did. always
thought women told more of their
affairs than men"
Certainly they do not. Why yes
terday afternoon, Jack. at the mat.
inee Dick Summers told me all about
his broken engagement, and if I would
let him he would have told me how
much he loved Paula Perier."
Then he's in love with Paula
Perier"
Yes, I think he's more In love with
her than Sydney Carton"
