The next thing, they will be writing anonymous letters. You can always tell who an anonymous letter is from because women generally write them on hotel stationery, generally the stationery of the swellest hotel they can think of, so it will seem that so- ciéty is indignant. All you need to do i# to go to the writing room of the’ hotel and get a description of some of the recent ready letter writers, and often the attendant will know the name, In this case you just ask sweetly if Mrs. So and So wasn’t in yesterday,” “Well, 1 am glad you are not tak- ing sides,” said Mr. Jarr, “Certainly no! replied Mrs, Jarr. “Tf one takes sides, then one only hears ono side, But if you don't take sides you hear both sis ° ‘When you ‘are » remarked Mr, Jarr. “Most assuredly" was the reply, “Only I do feel bad to think of all the fine clothes that I cannot afford.” “Fine clothes?

Mr. Stryver is mak- ing a lot.of money in Wall Street now during the boom in stocks, 80 Stryver told me.” Yes,” said Mr. Jarr, handling industrials.” “I can't see how he makes any money that way,” replied Mra, Jarr. “For the poor people are industrials, aren't they?" “Industrial, stocks don't mean the industrious poor,” explained Mr. Jarr. “The Wall Street industrials are the stocks of Amerigan concerns that make automobiles and such things. Since the war all these stocks have Bone up in price, and @ lot of specu- lating is being done in them, The boss has been dabbling in them and making @ lot of money, too!" “Well, I think it Is a shame,” ven- tured Mrs. Jarr, “that Clara Mud- ridge-Smith and Mrs, Stryver should have a quarrel and buy fine clothes to make each other envious, from money made that way and we can't make Anyway, it’s only gambling!" “I am glad to hear. you say said Mr. Jarr, But Mrs. Jarr regarded him sus- Piciously, “You are glad to hear me Say so, but just the same I do need & lot of nice clothes, and I would almost be willing to gamble myself if I could get some. Anyway, we have nothing to lose if we dia gamble.” “Cheer up!" said Mr. Jarr, “Maybe some day we'll be rich enough to gamble—and then we won't.” “I do wish things weren't so high,” said Mrs. Jarr, “for even if you do make money these days, what good is it?
