Well, 1 don’t won¬ der at it,” replied Mr. Bowser, “Did you read the item? “No, but i know how it all Happened. He found out that lie couldn’t take a hit of comfort in his h< me and he !e 1 t it. No one knows the misery that poor man suffered before he took that step.” “II doesn’t say he was unhap - py” “Of course not. No husband ever gets justice to say nothing of pity. I’ll bet he suffered a thousand deaths before he walked, away to die in some lonely spot by his own hand.” “Well, dear, you’ll never be driven away by any act of mine” she said as she went over and kissed him. “W-wbatin the thunder are ■you doing?” shouted Mr. Bowser as he dioj ped Iho shoe and sprung up. “Y\ by, I kissed you.” “Well, I don’t want anybody blowing into my ears or spitting onniychin! What stiuck you jill at once?” “There was a time, Mr. Bow¬ ser tneie was a time when”— “When what?” “When you said that if 1 •would kiss you, you would lie the happiest man in the whole •world.” “Never! Never even hinted at s>u<h a thing! 1 wasn’t that sort of a noodle-head!” “Mr. Bowser! Why, there was for three months, w hile 1 was waiting to make up my mind to many you, that you Ban! you could hardly live frem <day to day.” Waiting! You waiting! Well that is cool! That tickles me— lia! ha! ha!” l:e shouted as he held liis sides. “Yos, waiting! i” by ha! ha! ha!—you said ’yes’so mighty quick you l it your tongue in doing it!

You hunted me down and got me to marry you, and now you are trying to make my home happy. If you aie feeling badly w hy don’t you go and make yourself some cat¬ nip tea?” “Husbands talk about happy hemes,” she continued, as she locked the paper over, “but what do they do to make it hap¬ py c ” * “Yes, pitch into husbands!” growled Mr. Bowser, as he swept over the shoepeg and savagely kicked at the cat which came to mb herself against his ffg “While they are courting they are all t miles and soft talk, but the honeymoon is no sooner over than they stand revealed in their tiue colors.” i * Ketp pitching right in Mrs. Bowser!

That’s the way with the tarnal woman— always kicking and complaining about something.” “There was a time when you used to pet me, Mr. Bowser.” “That’s it! Keep right on harping on that same old string! If a husband don’t tell his wife forth times a day that she’s his shining star, she’s ready to kick and make his heme miserable. 1 may be driven out any day now. I’ve seen it coming for the last two years, but I was helpless. I’m going to lock up and go to bed. Good night, Mrs. Bowser.”—New York World. The creamery has been of decided advantage to the private dairy in teaching and leading the way toward better practices. It Las taught us to skim the milk before it has spoiled, and to stop churning before the but¬ ter is spoiled. By following up the same line there is no reason why the piivaie dairy should not make just as good butter as the creamery, and get just as much for it.
