LL men wee crazy, and I know it, and you need not try to con- vince me other- wise, Mr. Nagg! Oh, well, I'll admit there's method in their madness; but look at these men going up in balloons in Oh, I know what ‘They say {t's sport, | winter weather! they do it for! ‘but all they do it for is to have an- other excuse to get away from home. “You are just as bad as these bal- Yontsts! Oh, yes, you are! Didn't you join the Chess Club, and are you ‘not just wild to be out every night once a month playing chess? You gre as bad as those balloon-club men, and if you get hurt, for all those games are rough, why, do not blame} me! Of course I don't say you can| get hurt playing chess, but I know the sort of men that belong to chess elubs, and all those gambling games Jend to feverish excitement and bad ‘feeling, and generally wind up in vio- Jence! Doesn't Col. Wilkins belong to the Chess Club, and wasn’t his leg shot off in the war? If he was a @eaceabdle citizen would he have gone to the war shooting guns at people and being brought honie with his leg, shot off and getting the house alr mussed up? Sometimes I think peo- ple do those things on purpose, like | Mr. Dubb did when he challenged | the trolley car to fight him and was brought home in a push-cart and sued the company, and the case has been postponed by the lawyers until after he dies, and then, like as not, the street-car company will prove he drank himself to death, and poor /Myrs. Dubb won’t get a cent, and Mourning 1s 80 expensive, because if you get the cheap kind it gets so rusty 4t almost turns red before it’s time to go into half-mourning, and that’s why I have a perfect horror of death, because black isn't one bit be- coming to me! “Oh, it’s ali right for Lucy Ashby, who's a blonde and likes to go around ‘and be introduced to men as ‘the charming little widow!’ Of course, she and her husband were separated for years, and he let his life insur- ‘afice lapse, and I do not blame her if whe doesn’t care, but she has no wight to dab her nose with her hand- kerchief, pretending to cry, when men sympathize with her. Of course, they don't know that she's putting powder on her nose, because all blondes get their noses red if it !s the least bit cold, but I know that if I ‘was a widow I wouldn't be trying ef- fects so my blond hair would show. “Blondes are all cats, anyway, and 1d never rest in my grave if I knew had married a blonde all I ave had to put up with! ‘And that's why I tell you that I won't stand for you getting that balloon craze and ome riding up to this door looking foolish in a wicker basket. I suppose you will be going up next at agri- cultural fairs in pink tights on a trapeze and jumping off in a para- chute and being taken to the hos-| pital with all your bones broken. { “Of course, you only do these| things to annoy me and to work on| my feelings, because you Lt Pa i das sg ak a fal a a 4 i " A al ea.
