does thoroughly respect Macadam.” Now he mounts to the summit of praise, frankly acknowledging her part in his work. “In my wife's mind I see my thoughts enlarged and reflected, just As in a telescope we behold the stars. She is the magic mirror in whic£ I see the divine. Iler mind acts on mine, and mine reacts upon hers. Most certainly I am aware that no one else can see the same in her which I behold, because no one else can call forth her qualities, any more than any other woman can call forth mitie. “Our minds, separate and apart, act together as one, forming a com plete binocular, making plain that which to one alone is invisible. “Now, there be those, wise in this world’s affairs, who may say, evi dently this man is a victim of the gumwillies.

I have writ ten her over 3,000 letters, and she has written as many to me. Borrowed Her Ideas. “Every worthy theme*and senti ment I have • expressed to the public has been first expressed to her, or, more likely, boriowed from her. I have seen her in almost every possi ble exigency of life —in health, suc cess and high hope; in poverty, and what the world calls disgrace and defeat. But here I should explain that disgrace is for those who ac cept disgrace, and defeat consists in acknowledging it.” No man ever wrote thus intSnate ly of the woman he loved, either during her lifetime or after her death. He continues: “I have seen her face the ro bustious fury of an attorney weigh ing 300 pounds and reduce him to pork cracklings by her poise, quiet persistence, and the righteousness of her cause. “Some there be, who have called to her insultingly upon the pub'ic street, and to sundry and various of these she has given work and taught them with a love and patience al most past belief.” Such things as these have been passed along in whispers among lit tle groups, the memb?rs of which looked around to see that none was near before voicing them even thus. Now they are published to any who may care to read them. He goes on to glory in her motherhood, to praise her ab'lity as a business wo man. 4 ‘Assuming that 100 is the perfect standard,” he writes, “a judicial rating would place Alice Hubbard somewhere between 90 and 99 in the following: As a mother, housekeeper, economist, , methodizer, diplomat, financier, orator, writer, reformer, in ventor, humanitarian, teacher, phil osopher. “This, then, is my one close com panion, my confidant, my friend, my wife; and my relation with her will be my sole passport to Paradise, if there is one beyond this lite.” The Second Mrs. Hubbard.
