CELEBRATION. T THE end of their second year of married bliss Jane and James gave a little din- ner to celebrate the occasion. As was usual at Jane’s din- ners everything was beautifully and elaborately done. There were squabs, champagne, & new fandangle called an artichoke which nobody but Jane knew how to eat. The artichokes were the hit of the party, though the ice cream in the shape of wedding rings made quite a sensation. Nappy, with great grace and cere- mony, opened the front door and waited on table, Jane wore her wed- ding gown and three of the available bridesmaids their made-over prim- rose frocks. The guests were almost hysterically gay (due perhaps to the champagne). Jane was in great form and told some of her funniest stories, and every one agreed afterward that it was a wonderful party—every one, that is, except James. In the first place James had op- posed the dinner, said they could not afford it, claimed that it was an unnecessary extravagance and sug- gested instead that they spend the afterncon picknicking in the Stimson woods. “If we can't afford to ask our friends to the house occasionally it seems to me you'd better stay down at the office and work,” ner to father. He never minds.” An accusation of extravagance was to Jane like a red shirt to a bull, for she prided herself on knowing how to buy and what to buy, and in never | If she spent more | wasting a dollar. largely than James’ income warranted it was because her father encouraged her to do so. Mr. Northrup was reputed to be | worth at least $2,000,000 and one of his greatest pleasures was in in- dulging his only daughter. He liked nothing better than to have her perch on his knee and explain that she hadn't @ penny to her name or a rag on her back and needed dozens of things her poor young husband could not afford and her dear smart old daddy could. Mr. Northrup always wrote her a | check on the spot and assured James, if he were present, that Jane knew exactly how to twist the men round her little finger. He was fond of saying that Jane was a chip off the old block and that she had twiee the brains of most of the men in New Concord. “But I mind,” said James grimly in answer to Jane's taunt that her father would pay for their anni- versary dinner. “He paid for our last party and the one before that. I don't believe there is another young couple in town that entertains as often as we do.” “If you'd spend less time taking cases for shiftless darkies who never pay you a cent instead of turning down every chance you get to make money perhaps I shouldn't have to ask father to pay for things,” an- swered Jane icily. She was not very well, for very good reason, and her | nervousness made her careless of James’ feelings. James flushed, but he managed to control his temper. “I made $2,500 last year and that's pretty good for & man my age in this town—the Judge says.” said Jane | lightly, “Besides, I'll charge the din- | GREAT RICHES Mateel Howe Farnhane the week before, and won her triumph of the evening by describing the dresses and behavior of certain wives and daughters of various small town and country representatives who had been present at the reception in To- peka given by the wife of the Gov- ernor, which Jane attended with James. James during this recital squirmed and wriggled, coughed and tried un- successfully to change the subject. Some of the women Jane was men- tioning by name were wives of men who wielded enormous political in- fluence—men whom James had taken the greatest trouble to win as friends. James made up his mind then and there never to take Jane over to Topeka with him again—if he could get out of it. He was relieved and more than a little cross when the evening was ended and the guests ‘were gone. James endures a small purgatory, tomorrow. - War Veterans Confer.

Kalin were called to Emer- gency Hospital, where they found O’'Malley insisting he had heen struck by a taxicab. Physicians could find no injuries, so the officers took him to the station house, where he broke loose and ran out. Upon his re- capture, they said, he kicked them both, and it finally required four po- licemen to return him to a cell. O’Malley said he had been to a cocktail party and had gone out for a walk, 45¢ 45¢ $1.59 85¢ $1.39 $1.89 94c 50c LAW REVISION STUDIED D. C. Officials Named to Inquire Into Dwelling Regulations.

Of course, they made up later—James could not bear to dwell in a state in which Jane withheld from him the the favor of her approval—and he admitted he might have appeared | unreasonable and selfish. So the host greeted his guests as | happily as did the hostess and seemed to enjoy himself during the first two courses as much as any one present. Then the champagne was served and Bud Howard unfortunately remarked that the law business must be pick- | ing up. “Or the grain business,” said Jane quickly. Mr. Northrup dealt in grain. | Every one laughed, James included, in spite of the fact that he felt keenly humiliated. He told himself that Jane did not mean anything and that he was a fool to be hurt. A little later they began to chafe him about his budding mustache. This was all good-natured raillery and James enjoyed ft. ; “It makes you look older and flercer some way, but I think it's becoming,” said Julia Millard, who sat on James’ right. “How do you like it, Jane?” “Has James grown a mustache? I never noticed,” was Jane's mocking answer, and, of course, this brought another laugh. James flushed a little and it occurred to Julia that Jane's tougue was beginning to be more than a little pointed. She wished Jane would be more careful. Of course, she didn’t realize, but it was a shame to hurt James that way. Jane, however, went on shining. 8he mimicked with great gusto the manners and conversation of an acutely embarrassed farmer guest James had brought home for dinner (20t ICE Have Your ' Mattresses— —Made Buoyant —Reticked —Sterilized ~—Cleaned —Returned in One Day —Cost $5 and Up BOX SPRINGS BEDS . ..
