"The o y contented women are those who are doin some useful constructive work. The wife of any successful man will tgll you that the’ happiest time o! her life is not now when she has nothing w do but be bored trying to amuse herself, but when she was toiling, day and night, at her husband's side helping him to get a. start. It is the wives who have nothing to do but vivisect their emotions who ﬁnd their husbands are not their affinities and don't understand them. The r woman who has u. work eighteen hours a day making a home for er flusbdnd and children never discovers that she missed getting her soulmate,

“It is the idle women who enrich doctors and fill sanatoriums, not the ones who have to work so hard they haven't time to be sick.

John slept late, but sleep was restless and troubled. When he IWORB. it was with a feeling that something was wrong. Then, he remembered. Last night, he had got himself engaged to Harriet.

He had regretted % proposal

almost as soon as e made it. Now. in the cold ll t of day it seemed even more trous e

. H wished he could somehow take beck his words, but he knew he couldn't. Though he wasn't in love with Har- riet, she was quite obviously in love with him. It would be~crue to hack out on her. . ., .

As he 8100111 pulled himself out of bed. the teep one rang. Ans- wering it, heheard Stephen Mitch- ell's ruff voice,

"Jo , I'm at the ﬂice and I want to see you. It's a ut Virginia. That's the reason I came down here -'—didn't want to take any chance on her walking in‘on us or over- hearins us at the house. How soon can you get down here?"

“Give me half an hour. Mr. Mit- chel; I'm ust getting up."

As John put down the phone, he

hie what the trouble was. Evi- dﬂi . Ste hen Mitchell had found out t onteros was in town. .
