They said the Northrup twins were

James learned a great many valu-

riage. He learned not to smoke all
over the house, but only in his den. "
He learned that his habit Of wax
ing up each morning, cheerful and
sportive as q young puppy, and at
tempting to romp with his wife while
she was sleepy and cross was little
less reprehensible than wife beating.

quickly. "I'll tell you what we'll do.

perfdious rather than meritorious

He learned that Jane believed that
kissing should be kept for special &C.
casions, such as partings or greet
ings or good nights or good mornings
or moments of high emotion, but
thought it silly and not quite mice"
now that her first ardor had been sat
isfied to be kissed frequently for no
reason at all. James was perhaps
almost overly demonstrative and was
certain to take offense and get on his
dignity when accused Of Stiffness"
The honeymoon was soon over for
Jane. Nevertheless, Jane was SEN
sibie enough to recognize the boyish
affection in most of James demon
strativeness and made q real. II al

affectionate than she was.
During all that first year and well
into the second year of her marriage
Jane continued to be ridden with
servant troubles. But 1t speaks much
for young Mrs. Stimson's efl-
cheney that her house continued to be
run as by clockwork, that her closets
and attics and cellar could bear in
spection at any hour Of the day, that
her hired girl New Concord did not
rise to the dignity Of maids until some
years later was never known to an

that it was common gossip In the
humber quarters Of the town, as well
as In the agencies in st. Joseph and

work for and 'he" nice and friendly
but kinda glum.
But James efficiency was at last
rewarded. When she had been mar
ried about II months she found Anna.
the perfect servant, and he- domestic
difficulties were solved.
Anna was large. raw-boned,
washed out blond in her late
twenties who had labored in the
fields of Sweden. and tossed OF her
work in the Stimson household as
casually as a farmer tosses aloft q
pitchfork Of hay. Anna was not besu-
tiful to look upon, having large
birthmark that covered her left cheek,
and about which she was excessively
sensitive. She suffered besides from
disappointment In love and hated
bitterly not only the author of her
woes, but all the rest of the treacher-
Gus sex.
We've got q new girl" James told
his Aunt Sarah during one Of their
cozy Sunday afternoons before an
open fire in the library.
Miss Sarah was only too delighted
to have James to herself one after
noon a week. Miss Sarah still kept
up the fiction, even with Aunt Lou,
that she was pleased and happy at
her nephew's marriage. But Miss
Sarah petitioned her Maker nightly
to root out her growing dislike for
James wife. Now she said, Poor
Jane seems to have had q hard time
