I haven't | seen her for an age,” asked her neigh- bor, Phyllis West. “Haven't you heard?” mysteriously answered Mrs. Nelson in a low tone. “Poor thing, she's gone home sudden- 1y to her mother. The whole town is talking about it.” “About what? Why this sympathy? They're an ideally happy couple.” “Appearances are often deceiving. The night before Mrs. Twitchell left her husband was seen leaving that house on the corner of Elmwood street, the white one with the green roof, after midnight, while his wife most likely was sitting at home grief stricken at his actions. The woman,” added Mrs. Keene, “was distinctly heard to say as she bid him goodby, “Isn’t your patience exhausted? No other husband would wait so long.'” “Wait for what?” inquired Phyllis perplexedly. “How do I know, unless she was in- sinuating about a divorce, My heart rings for that young wife.” “There's some mistake,” said Phyl- lis. “The trouble with this town is, that the people are so busy minding | other people's business that they don't have time to tend to their own. i If they hear any gossip they immedi- ately relate it to their five Dbest friends, and it then becomes a scan- dal. Will Twitchell waited for his wife for seven years, because she was needed at home. It isn't likely that he would neglect her after & year.” “I hope you're right, my dear,” sald Mrs. Keen, as she sald goodby to her visitor On her way downtown Phyllis met Will Twitchell, who stopped her say- ing he was so happy he must talk to some one. “My wife is coming home tomorrow and it will seem like home once again.” “WIll she be as delighted to return a8 you are to have her?" asked Phyl- Iis, fearfully. “Of course, though she's had a never-to-be-forgotten time at her sis- ter's wedding."” “Was that the reason she left so suddenly ?” “Yes; my sister-in-law was married sooner than she expected. Elma had to have a new gown. The train left at 7:30 in the morning and at 10 p. m. the night before the dress- maker hadn't completed that dress. Elma was so worried that I hurried over to the dressmaker's house and sat there untll it was finished. In fact, I was afrald to return without it.” “Did you have to wait long?” asked Phyllis, “Until nearly 12 o'clock. That wom- an must have sewed miles of hooks and eyes on that blamed frock while I sat in that hot, stufty parlor.” “Does you wife's dressmaker live in the little white and green house on the corner?” “Yes, but don’t go there. I never will again.” “Well, I'm glad I met you: but I must hurry along; have some calls to make.” Phyllis made about 14 calls that afternoon only to find the chief topic of conversation to be the ahuse of the I'm sure husband and the sympathy for his wife, but the scandal did not have much chance to grow, as Phyllis took great haste to repeat her conversa- | tion with Will ! f lonesome without hell he greeted [ nis “The neighbor e not | nearly ociable as when you're at | home.” I'm so happy to be back again, | ir I'm ¢ no other woman v husband half as good and lov | ing and faithful as you," id Mrs. Twitchell ppy in the fgnorance of how her hu had been slandered, and how she had been sympathized with by her neighbors | An Ideal Man, “What he need says the aggra. vated young womian, “is some one to | give him a good snubbing—the Kkind of a snubbing that will make him feel nd little and helpless.
