he - 4 MARGIE TALKS TO HER “LITTLE BOOK" (Copyright, 1915, by the Newspaper Enterprise Association) I believe, little book, that I know how a condemned man feels while) he is waiting thru long, intermina- ble days for the great adventure, | Strange as it may seam, | believe that the days-—the waiting days of horror—are as long to them as they are to me. Today I have “put my house in order,” Everything is ready for the coming of my darling baby. His lit tle clothes are lying with his toflet articles in his little basket, A note} of instruction to the nurse and a note to dear Aunt Mary, asking her to take charge of him and the house for a while are iaid under the clothes at the bottom of the basket, “to be opened and read in case | am too ill to talk.” My own clothes are all arranged in my bureau drawers with ribbons in night dresses, and everything ready. I have gone thru all the old letters and keepsakes in my desk and labeled them; some to be burn- ed and some to be kept if my boy should live and | pass into the un known. And, last of all, dearest little com panion of my life, I have been go- ing back over the path of my life with you, I wonder if most wives date their! existence from their marriage. | read extracts of those many vol umes before my wedding day as if they were pages from the life of an-! other girl; one whom I had known intimately for some years, but one who died on my marriage morn Some way, little book, I felt rath- er sorry for that little girl. She had such high hopes, such great as- pirations; she believed so thoroly) in the possibilities of love and life. That ecstatic outburst on “the night before my marriage” was her farewell to the life she had known, to the love which was in her mind and heart, a combination of ecsta and idealism | “I want to belong” was the ecstat-) fe ery of that girl, whose only hope of happiness was to be merged into. one with the man she loved. Oh, little book, little book, why is it given to us poor finite mortals to tmagine what we can never hope| to attain, to conceive what we are; unable to accomplish? No mortal can become one with another, and no human being can “belong” to another as do one’s hands or fect, or any other of the} members of one's body, to be un- questioningly directed by one brain. Neither the mind nor the soul can belong to anybody but the body the} mind and soul inhabit. I know, lit tle book, I conceived a thing im possible of realization—but it was something so fascinatingly beauti- ful that it has made all the lesser joys of married life seem tame. Now, in its place, because now that I am not guided by delirtous THE MAN WHO DARED! CAN HE BE HAPPY?

Very likely she sought aid of Him who said, jo and asin no more At all events she was leas liable to fall again than some of her more favored sisters whore “lines were cast in pleasant places,” for she knew the bitterness of the cup.
