It is really necessary for some married women to get out and hustle, and there are wives that three or four husbands could not sat-| isfy with funds as long as they could think of some way of getting track of another dollar. Now, where are you going to draw the line? I think much of the trouble ts due to the senseless ambition of modern Women to dress and live like “near- miltionaires.” I have seem working @iris dressed fit to occupy a> fine Umousine, riding around in street cars and crabbing about the fares. ‘This idea of working in clothes that/| women in more comfortable circum stances would consider dress-up gar ments is sickening.

So far as we were con cerned, of course, the charge fell flat; and upen any other hypothesis it was blankly incredibie, unbe Hevable, absurd. “The affidavits themselves would be much more convincing,” I heart the boss say, “tho even then I should wish to have reasonable Proof that they were genuine.” Hatch was sitting down again| and his grin showed his teeth unpleasantiy. 90 you think for a minute that I'd bring the papers here and trust them in your hands?’ he out insultingly. “Not much we've got them al) right, find out if you balk and us to use them.” At this point 1 could something in the persistent ance of the man was getting the boss’ skin and giving cold chill What if it were colossal bluff it, had in the beginning? hat if Like a blaze of Mhtning out a clear sky a possible explanation hit me under the fifth rib, and I guess it hit the boss at same instant.
