CONFESSION 176 (Cspyrtght, 1914, by the Newspaper Enterprise Association.) Eleanor Fairlow came over to see me yesterday and stayed to dinner. Dick cafne home a little early, and she made him feel mighty uncomfort able by saying, innocently: "I haven't seen ybu since the night of the Morrisi-paotor party. We had a fine time." She said, turning to me. "It was top bad you were not able to go."

I hastened to modify my sentiment "Perhaps I ought not to say that," I said, with a smile, "as my husband is usually one of the crowd."

Its only idea-of a good time is to eat and drink between times of illegitimate lovemaking." "Margie!" almost shouted Dick. But I was in for it, and so I said: "Don't you think I am about right Miss Fairlow?" "Oh, I don't know that I would make it quite as bad as that," said jh-itfi-iiff'giKAti afiAdfk tofttfMMiMMftriMMk
