PAGE 7 Kaneas City NS OF A WIFE MARGIE 18 DISCOURAGED WITH MARRIED LIFE. (Copyright, 1914, by the Newspaper Enterprise Association.) I became so worried about Dick this morning that I called up the office. He said that he would be back the next day when ho tole phoned me before he went away. He has been gone two nights, Last night I did not sleep at all. In tmagination | could see Dick ly- ing In some doorway with a bullet through his body, or in some hos- pital where he had been taken after| being struck by an automobile. I became so nervous that at las! got up at 3 o'clock and read the remainder of the night. When I called up the office, which I did very early, I asked, “Can you} tell me where to address Mr. Wav- erly?” The person answering the telephone answered, “Do you want his home or office address?” “1 want to know where he ts now.” “Right here in the office, madame,” was the surprising infor mation, “shall I call him to the phone?” “No, I'll write him there,” was my decision. If Dick does not want to aall me up after two days and nights away from home I am going to bother him by letting him know that I am on earth. It doesn't seem to me that he should be so angry that he never wants to see ma again just because I asked him to divide his earnings so that I might have a por-| tion of them to pay bills that are| as necessary to his comfort my) own. However, if he feels this way about ft, I'll give Mr. Dick a taste| of his own medicine Aunt Mary wants to go to her) own home for a day or two and I'll go with her, She fs starting today and I'll fust| say nothing to any one but quietly/ tag along. It’s mighty hard to adjust one’s self to married life and it is a dread- ful heart-breaking conclusion to learn that I am quite as much fn the dar® regarding my own fdeas and actions on the subject as I am in regard to Dick's. T had a kind of subconscious feel- ing that marriage was a kind of sublimated and glorified courtship carried on with the sanction of the church and state and I find alas, that marr, is entirely different. Dick cares very little for many of the things which interest mo greatly. Ho gives his best energy to his business and puts on such a bored face when I try to talk to htm about some book I have just read or some picture I have just seen. “Don't pull that high brow stuff on mé tonight, Margie,” he siys, “I am too tired to think.” During our fast and furtous court- ship we talked only of love and how sloriously sweet it was to live. But one exhausts those subjects very soon after marriage and then unless the husband and wife have other topies of conversation {n common, there seems to be nothing left but “the bitter joy of misunderstand. ing.” Dick is down there tn the office— I don't know even if he has been out of town at all—thinking himself jabused by fate which has saddled him with a wife who cannot be happy in being a nice little neat dollle to be played with when he wivhes, who will not be satisfied with ribbons, laces, gew-gaws, and insists that she must have some of the experiences that are vital, strong and worth while. She insists that life ts not a period of dreamy Ustiessness and that anything— food or bad, in this dual life we call marriage ts much for her as for him. Of course Dick {s not putting it that way. Instead he {s smoking like a furnace and frowning Ike |gargoyle and muttering to himself, “I wish Margie would not be such a d—— fool.” All right, Aunt Mary, I'm ready and we'll stay at your home as long as you want. Perhaps out there with you I can exchange that which I destre for that which I can have and not feel that I have cheated my soul in the barter.
