• The Are flickered and danced ob tht
• hearth.
• The crickets were singing theii
' songs nnd getting ready for a joyous
winter.
The Iceman had collected his lasl
bill and departed. He was full of hope
and cheer, for he had made 200 pei
cent profit.
Outside the nightingale warbled his
song, but it was no cheap warble. In
a day or two he would present a bill
. of $25.
The strikers were on a strike again,
and the police were patting them on
the back.
All seemed joyous at the home ol
the Ilowsers, but yet his eyes were
moJst, as he turned to Mrs. Bowser
and said:
“My dear, I saw a sight this after
noon that called for all my senti
ment.”
“Was it a sick horse?” she asked.
“No, ma’am. It was no sick horse!
I was in court as a juror. There was
ft mar arraigned before us for beatin?
his wife. He was six feet high anri
weighed two bundrod pounds. She
was five foot high and woiglied about
ninety. She appeared in court against
him, nnd it was a terrihlo sight. Her
nosp wfis hrol<en. and sli<» had lost all
her front teeth, and in addition to that
lier hnito of a hu.'^hand lind bla0l\0d
hotli her eyes. She gave lior testimony
in a low. sweet voi(M*. Hi‘ liad come
lioine linlf-drunk. nnd liooanso supi)er
v. as not ready, and slie had no money
to liny nnylhing, be knocked her down
and gave her a boating. Ili.s excuse
was tiiat he could find no \vf>rk at
twelve dollars a day. I tell you, my
dear, tiio Jury made short work of
him. He was found gnilty and the
judge gave him six months in jail.”
“He ou«ht to have five years I” said
Mr.s;. Bowser.
“Yi*?. he certainly bad. It stirvo-l
me to the very heart to look at that
little vonian. Snpi^ose ynu had ’nar-
rletl such a man? Supi>ose I wii'^ a
groat, big iirnto, and should break
yo’ar nose with one blow of my fi.et?”
“I can’t suppose it,” replied Mrs.
Bowser.
“I br<*nlc your nose—then I knooic
out yonr teeth—tlion I black your
»»yes. You l5('g for ineroy, but I have
no mercy in my heart. I hanimer you
’intil the noiglibors and police arrive.
.Tust supiiose I M’as such a luan as
that.”
“But you are not. and so we won’t
snpy)Ose.”
“>s'o, we won’t sujipose. I couldn’t
do It. Mrs. Bowser—I just couldn’t do
it! I couldn’t break yoxir nose and
knock out jour teeth oven if you were
very saucy to me. I sliould como
homo and, if supper wasn’t ready. I
would nut my arms around your nock
and kiss you, and tell you tliat I would
•j:o liungry for a v.liole month for yoi'.r
sake. Y(\s, that is what I would tell
you.”
“I think you would. Mr. Bowser,”
admifted Mrs. Bowser.
“No. I'ni not .-'Uch a man as to knock
my wife’s feet down her throat. 1 love
her too well. I am full of sympattiy
for lier. You will never need to 1)0
little tf»o hiu'li, but I don’t think »t. i
All the goddesses had noses with a
'hump in .Ihe middle of them. And
such.eyes as you have got! You have
the eyes of a sloe, and the husband
who would blacken them deserves to
die. You know what a sloe Is, don’t
you ?”
“Oh, yes. A sloe is a man who don’t
get to work on time. If anything ails
his ejes I shf)X^d think he would get
some ?ye watei* and cure them.”
“No, Mrs. Bowser, I would never
strike you with my fist. You never
need be afraid of me. You can always
talk back \yhen you feel like it. Be
cause I am ,\our husband it is no sign
that I have any more rights In this
house tlmn .vou have. If I want to
paint the house, and you don’t want
It painted. It Is niy duty to defer to
you. All you have to do is to say to
Samuel .1. Bowser that the. house looka
good enough, and we had better have
the cost of the new paint In something
else.”
“Do folks say It’s going to be a hard
winter?” asked Mrs. Bowser.
“I haven't heard anybody say,” was
the reply, “but never mind the winter
whetlier it’s hard or soft. Mrs. Bow
ser, you have beautiful teeth. What a
bnite I would be to knock them down

the contrary, I will smooth .vour haii’
down and kiss you on tlie cli'H'k—like

^Ii s. Bowser didn’t seem to be elated
with actions. Tliore was .just as
much danger as if he had sjit and
read tlie ])ap‘*r. A whim might Kvizo

“Did you say there Avas another
strike on?” asked Mrs. Bowser, hopin.i»
to change the .subject.
“No, I did not ^■%y so,” was tlie re
ply. “But we ma.v look for f>ne. We

your (hn^at. Why, I would deserve
ten years in stale’s prison. You see—
Mis. r.tiwscr—you set?—”
Mr. liowser had been walkin.g the
floor. Of a sudden he halted, as If
siruck by an idea, and he !«ald:
“Mis. I'.owser, two days ago I car
ried a i>air of slioes down to the coh-
hler’s. Tliey w(>n' my winter shoes,
and I wanted the iieels fixed up. Tlie
col)bler assured me that they would
i'e sent up today. Did they come?’
“Yes. Indeed. They are in that par
cel. under the chair.”
]\Ir. Bowser reached for tlie parcel
and open<*d it. There were a pair of
sh(X‘s brought to light, but as he
looke<l at them a terrible frown came
to his face and he almost shouted
out:
“Shoos I Shoes! ]\Iv shoes! Timco
are not my shoes! Tliey are shoes
)>t-hinging to .some mortar-mixer and
there plaster on th('tn i My shoes j
:<r(* nunilier seven, wiiilc tIio<c are
cerfiiiniy number fen. Who took Jhc.se
in?"
“V.'h.v. I did. A bo.v brought thorn
and s!»ld they v,<‘r<> your sh<'es, and
of cours»‘—”
“Tiuv' is no ‘of eoursi'’ a!;out it!
Mr:-. Bo<\ <('r. yoj; ha'^e slio-.vn .vourself
in .vour true colors I You have proved
that you I’.ave no interest in your hus-
l.and’s wellaro. It was your plain
rluiy, as my wife, to make tin' boy sit
right down in a cliair until you had
oxnmined the shoes and saiis!ied your
self tlKit they w<‘n> mine.”
“But the boy said they were yours,”
I)ersisic'd Mrs. Bowser.
“But what if he did say so!” shouted
Mr. liowser. “You ought to know that
all boys lie. Here I am .out a pair of
sl.'oes, and the mortar-mixer will spoil
mine trying to pull them 'onto his big
hoofs.”
“^Ir. Bowser—”
“Not a. wofd. Mrs. Bowser! I leave
tills house at <mce! I cannot remain
wltli a wif(' who is so careless as yOu
are! Yes, I go!”
And ^Ir. Bowser tramped, tramped
down the hall, and passed out into
the autumn night. The moon hovered
over his head as he walked, and the
stars winked at him. but lie walked
and walked and walked, and thought
only of his .shoos, and it was after
midnight before he sneaked back home
and cre]»t softl.v into bed tf» dream how
he would murder the cobl.ler as soon
as he had eaten his breakfast in the
morning.
Sundial Has No Practical Value.
In many a rifh man’s "arden a sun
dial tells the time, though m>body
looks or listens. It is probable that
the sundial never gave any inforaui-
tion that could not have been ol»-
talned more Quickly in other ways.
The simdial fullills a function in a
man’s gaiHie:n, but that function is
not to tell the time! It is often of no,
beauty and always of no utility, bu*
there Is a cult in old things or in nev>
things that are fashione<l after old
thin.gs, and a man likes to .set up
sundial on h:is lawn as he will set u{
old armor in his hall.
Expensive Business.
A red-headed boy applied for a jol
in a butclier shop. “How much wil
you givt! me?”
“Throe dollars a week; but wha
can you do to make yourself usefu
around a butcher shop?”
“Anything.'’
