DICK COMPLIMENTS MARGIE
lick got up thia morning looking, and he said, feeling better than he has done
for a long time.
"At what hour, my lady, did you get ia last sight t" he said la mock rage.
"Don't you know it is very wrung fur a virtuoua married woman to stay out till
all hours of the night with her husband's best friend, while that poor husband is
111 in bed, to make it worse."
"Yod were sleeping the sleep of the perfectly content aa well aa the Just.
Dirk." I said. "When I returned. I sat up hours aad wrote in my little book."
"What kind of a confcMion, Madame, did yon have to snake that it took yon
so 10037"
"It was no eonfession at all, Dick dear, it was just a little hyma of thanks
giving.
Dick enme over to me swiftly and with his arms about me, he asked, looking
eagerly into my face.
Have you renlly anything to be thankful for, Margie f Do you know I thought
If st nii;! t as you went tM the door so lenutiul and happy, that I was a brute
to tie you down to poor old me. Why, Mirgie, I am afraid I will be an invalid
all my-life and then what will you. wit your love of gayety dof"
Virhaps, Iick, I'll do j.ist what I did la-t night, go out with your best
friend," and then na I aw a ahadow iross his face, 1 added quickly but I
won't do it often, drnr."
"Whut ure we talking nliut such aiily things for, Dick, of course you are
going to get well. You know you are -U-tter thia morning and from now oa you
are going to be better every day."
"Wi.iit are you going to do today, Marg.ef
"I am going shopping."
"trr, F ,1n 11 'r rmr wnit un tl vow sot home i"
"H-iaiiMe I think Chi". mo holds the most leautiful store in the world and
you know I lmrn't bought any clothes -'or ages."
"Why. I thought that exquisite gown you had on last evening was absolutely
new." ...
Now. Dick, you have admired that frk at least ten times and every time you
have declared you never saw it hefor.'."
"Well, go ahead and spend some of your dividends from the book concern if
you want to. I ut I tell you. you don't need to, for you alwaya look good to me."
"Always, Diekt" I cuu'.d not help asking.
He looked curiouilv surprised as he answered.
"You ol course know, Margie, that I think you the most beautiful woman
I ever saw."
And. little book, I believe he meant it.
Some times' I think that a few months' illness of the husband would make
.,.,ri,.e. nmrn .uecessful. Dick lias never paid me aa many compliments
or made so much love to me-as since he haa been sick. When a man has nothing;
cite to tnke up his miud he Legins to feel his Heart beat lor tne woman wno
is near him. ... . .
When he gets well a woman must tnke her place with the other interesting
thing" i" his .mind. , ,. , , .
If a woman little book, could wnly understand thia, she would not alwaya be
trving to sweep out everything from tho mind of the maa ahe lovea but herself.
bhe cau never do it. little book, never. (To be eontinued.)
