THE COURT KISS.
THE ideal husband is on- aho is a!
yearning doormat. Lysamf-.:
■gy John \pjii«-ton was a doormat,
k but his soul In l ong •inci cease,-] to
iF yearn. For thi- miwm In fell short

fied.

i her. He paid her bills and tunughl ne
y told her.
She wailleu no <■ m laic t > cut short
his morning good-by> kiss. She longed l
K. to gee him come home : t night with j
speed increased bj thoughts of the I
&> grbeling kis- that await.d him.
He thought of the first train he could
' catch in the morning and of his dinner
at Bight. He was not ideal.
Aits. Lysand. . •John appealed to the
courts. "Ms husband," sin- sobbed to
the Judge, "no lunger kisses me"
It w.-us a grave offense. The sentence
must match th, crimi . The court ruled
f. that for tie next seven years Mrs. \p
pleton must ici-ort daily that In bus- 1
baud had kissed her at least twice in
the L’4 hours.
f “And if you fail." - tid th- court,
looking grimly over its glasses, 'your
sentence will be doubled.”
Lysandet John began -<•; \ ing ills
time tjexl nforning. His wife was sow
ing when lie left the bouse. and h<
waited patientlj while sh took sou:
■pins and a needle from he mouth. !
Then he kissed her.
E • To him the evening kiss tasted of the ;
I bean- and onions and carrots she had
been testing while getting dinner, but
ft he fli.id nothing.
The next morning when he left she ;
r was doing her back hair anil her mouth
was full, of hairpins. But he is a law- 1
abiding citizen and carried out the
court's decree.
The compulsory kissing had lasted a
week when Mrs. Appleton appeared be
fore the Judge.
“My husband, she sobbed, "kissed ,
me twice a day. but his kisses luck
flavor. He kissed me like a hen neck
ing at a pebble, olml if la aims at my
lips he is in such a hurry the kiss lands
on my eat.
"I don't want any more of y our com
pulsory kissing. I want the court's or
der revoked.”
That night when Lysander John
learned that the court had dissolved
him, he gate, his wife a kiss that .was
voluntary.
It lacked the dty. parchment taste of
the court kiss, and smacked a little of '
the courtship kind.
Mrs. Lysundei John guv. a smile.
Her’ husband v.as approaching the
ideal!

Broadway sprang to his feet, fie felt

"Did inu send a message out tli<-re b\

Bm the judge explained:
"Well, that's what they're heering
about. The men are veiling and the boys
are dancing. You'd think Bedlam had
broken loose. They re hollering for you.
I Corne on out and let 'em see you.”
Broadway's valor sfiriveleil it], just as
tin beauty of Mrs Berard's had. His
heroic poise .and jmse were gone in

"No, no!” he exclaimed, ”1 couldn't - I
just couldn't.”
The cheering was redoubled.
“Listen!” exclaimed the judge.
"Go out. Broadway, and say a few
wor-ls.” said Mrs. Spotswood

Spotswood was left t here alone. She was |
about to follow the others when her ,
brother, the fat and sulky Sammy, I
showed in Wallace.
At his manifest astonishment at seeing
her. Clara giggled < ut;
“You didn't expect to sec me here, did
• "It's an unexpected but a very great
I pleasure.” returned Wallace warmly.
Clara went on in a matter-af-fact voice:
"Mr. Jones will be back in t few mo- .
i merrts He went out into the works to |
i make u speech.” j
Wallace made the motions of a young
woman about to faint.
"What?” he ejaculated, in real aston
ishment.
“Yes; that's the crowd cheering him
now.”
But Wallace's mind was now far away.
He was beginning to think that life in
tlie slackwater of Jonesville, with its lit
tle village pleasures and occasional ex
citements, was not without a certain
charm. Sammy took advantage of the
absorption of the young people in them
selves to slip away He wanted to hear
Broadway's speech.
Wallace sighed as he said:
“Funny! I thought of you when I
I passed the drug store Just now ”
"Isn't it marvelous!” exclaitneii the
girl: “I’ve been thinking of you, loo.”
"You have?" with delight and wonder.
"Yes the chocolates weA tine. 1 ate

fore I went to bed. But you shouldn’t
be spending your money the way you do.
Oh, Mr. Jones told me you were a regu
lar spendthrift. He said you spent more
than $25 one night.”
"oh, did he tell you about that night?"
Wallace's tone implied to a Broadway
observer that there never had been a
night when he was spending money that
lie had been so iiHmoclerate.
j Clara shook her finger at him.

“And you mustn’t waste you money that

A laugh was ringing front his mouth as
Sammy ran in. The two young people
thought for a moment that the laugh was
for them, but Sammy soon reassured
them.
“Gosh, what a bum speech Broadway
made,” he sajd. ”1 wish I could get a
chance to make a speech. I bet I'd make
some of 'em take a back seat. If ever
I amount to anything, the first thing I

Advice to the
Lovelorn
By BEAI’RICE FAIRFAX.
TOO YOUNG TO KNOW.
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am fifteen and as I was visitin.-
a different state i met a bov about
seventeen. I only met him once
and I received a postal from him
later saying that he would like to
correspond with me. So I am still
corresponding with him. He said
he thought it was love at first 9 ig] u
It is getting serious. Judging from
his letters, I think he is very ni, ~
i It would break my heart if I h a d
to stop corresponding with him.
, , , anxious.
A letter is a poor test of a man Anv
man can write an agreeable letter if he
tries. Your little heart will break easi
ly and often if you permit the end of
correspondence with a man you don't
know to fracture it.
Don t take this so seriously, my de i
i Save your emotions for later and more
i vital experiences.
BE PATIENT A LITTLE LONGER
Dear Miss Fairfax:
I am a girt of seventeen and
am considered by some persons
pretty. About seven months ago 1
met a gentleman several years older
than myself and for him I imme
diately formed a great liking. I
will not say love, because I know I
am too young. He is very kind to
me, but somehow I feel that he re
, gards me as a child and therefore
has no interest in me. I want him
to respect and love me. KATE.
Some day he will realize that vou arc
grown up, and I am sure that with this
realization there will come an awaken
ing of his love for you.
He is a much finer man for regard
ing you as a child than if he made
violent love to one of your age. He
respects you now. Jf the love doesn't
corne for several years, all the better
for you.
