And as he sat there so tense, his clenched hands shaking, look- ing at her in this fixed stern way she wondered why she hadn't been afraid of him at first.

I-lere in this trunk she had put them-clothes he had left. She had aired them one sunny day and put them away. She didn't know why.

She insisted on helping him, He was so exhausted he didn't object. "Now-rub Willi this towel. And I'll have a fire-there's one laid in the dining room."

and soon had him before the fire- vplace. H» coughed and he was chattering. S-hc wrapped ii blanket round him, pulled up a footstool so he could put his feet to the blaze. “Now. You'll bc all right in a mlii- ute." She poured more brandy in the glass. "Take this.“

"The reason it's so hard," he said, "is that I spent my whole life guarding it. I thought I would take it to my grave."

She couldn't speak and he did not. There was only the steady sound of the rain and the old clock ticking on the mantel.

She nodded. but he didn't see her. He was looking at something else, n. steady burning look.

Invasion Of Privacy

Man Claims H His Righi To Open Wife's Letters

DEAR MISS DIX: My Wife insists that I have no right to open leiicrs addressed to her and read her mail. I keep no secrets from her, but she insists that her correspondence with her mother be a secret affair, and that I have no right to rcud hcr mother's letters. I let her read all my letters if she cares to do so, and I contend that I have a right to expect the some privilege from her. Who is right? If she is right, I think I shall retaliate by also having secret affairs. H. A, Z.

Well, as long as you confine your secret correspond- ence to your mother, us your Wife does hers, I dont suppose she will rise early in the morning in order lo steam your letters open and read them before you do.

ANSWER:

WIT! HAS REASONS

There are reasons why a woman might not care to have her husband read fill of her mother's letters. In vtlicm family matters might he discussed with which the husband has no concern. Wherefore wife, tn protect mother rind to save a family spat, prefers to keep mother's letters f0 herself, wisely con- sidering that they are purely personal and intended only for her own eyes.

And in this she is right, and ZI man must indccd be nurroiv-mind- ed and eaten up with jealousy, and moreover, consider n \\'llf‘ nothing but n chattel that he owns body and soul, to make an issue of refilling his mother-in-law's letters. Most mcn are glad not to he bored with
