"My Wifa is Artifical" Nature
Is To Blame, Says Winona
. Wilcox.
Man has learned to defeat nature
5n many ways. He walks on the bot
tom of the sea, soars above the high
est mountain peaks, lights the mid
night to rival noonday.
iiut in love he remains what Nature
Intended him to be a dupe.
Love blinds him to the flaws in the
beloved for a long time before he
complains something like this:
"My wife Is artifical." This parti
cular letter comes from a husband
of a year. "1 have to look twice to
find the dainty sweet-tempered girl
I married." Then follows half a
column of criticism which might have
been dictated by Adam. The wife is
"to blame," the young .husband hon
estly believes.
But he is wrong-. Nature Is at fault
for the bride's sad slump.
This is a scientific fact and if It
could be impressed upon the minds of
lovers. It would save a considerable
part of the first-year domestic mis
ery. The period of courtship is a period
of sex manifestations. A girl in love
will powder the lily and apply rouge
to the rose. A man will parade his
opinions and work wonders with his
voice, causing it to thrill with emo
tionbut never to betray impatience.
Both act unconsciously. The girl

CHATTERER WORKS HARD.
When Chatterer the P.ed Squirrel
had left the Green Korest because of
his terrible fear of Shadow the Wea
sel he had been fat. At least he had
been fat for him. All through the
pleasant fall, while he had been
gathering bis supply of nuts and
seeds to store away for the winter, he
nad eaten all he could hold, and had
filled his red coat out until it actual
ly felt too tight. But now that same
red coat hung too big for him. Yes,
sir. Chatterer had grown so thin
that his coat actually looked too big
for him. And ha was growing thinner
every day. ;
You see, most of the food had been
collected and stored away long ago,
and Chatterer had to run about a
great deal and hunt very hard to
find enough to eat day by day, while
as for filling a new storehouse, that
seemed impossible. Still. Chatterer
kept trying, and day by day he man
aged, to add a little to the supply of
seeds. But It was pretty poor fare
at best. There' were no plump nuts
or tasty pine seeds such as filled his
"storehouses In the Green Forest, be
cause no nut or pine trees grew near
the Old Orchard, and Chatterer didn't
dare go back to the Green Forest for
fear that Shadow the "Weasel would
find him and track him to hia new
home. So he patiently did hia best to
find food close at hand. But it was
discouraging, terribly discouraging,
to work from sunup to sundown, run-

everywhere, until he was so tired
ha was ready to drop, and knowing
all the time that the snow might come
any day and bury what little food
there was Chatterer the Red Squirrel
there was. Oh, those were hard days
for Chatterer the Red Squkldel, very
hard days. Indeed!
One morning he started very early
and made a long journey by way of
the old stone wall and the rial fences
down to Farmer Brown's cornfield.
Of course. Farmer Brown had long
figo taken away the corn, but in doing
It a great many grains had been scat
tered about on the ground, half bur
ied in the ground where they had
been trodden on, hidden under leaves
and among weeds and under the piles
of stalks from which the ease had
i been stripped. For the first time for
days Chatterer felt something like
cheer In his heart as he scurried
about hunting for and finding plump
' vellow grains. First he ate all he
could hold, for he saw that then
there would be plenty to take home.
Then he stuffed his cheeks full,
scrambled up on the rail fence, and
started for his new home in the Oid
Orchard.
"It is a terrible long way to have to
carry all my supplies," thought he
as he sat up on the top of a post to

is no more to blame than the moon
for Its halo on a misty night. The
man is no more responsible than the
western sky for Its glory when the
sun is setting. These are little bits
of nature, but one may mean rain to
morrow and the other a torrid day.
Science has proved that a fuller
crimson comes upon the robin's breast
in the mating season. But science
forgets to say that the brightness of
the bird's plumage does not keep its
gay promise. It lasts only half the
summer.
In the same way, the unconscious
sex manifestations of lovers imply
twice as much. They are a kind of
Involuntary lying.
The bride does not stay as lovely
as she seemed. Perhaps her first
baby steals her freshness. The man
becomes irritable. Perhaps his new
responsibility for the support of a
woman and a babe worry him to dis
traction. One ego complains, "I deserve a
better fate." The other ego murmurs,
"I've missed something."
Each blames the other when
neither is altogether blamable.
The great hope is that they will
stay married far better than they do
when' they comprehend better the
little tricks by which nature conceals
her purpose, the clever schemes of
nature which science is constantly
revealing to mankind.

W. BURGESS
It Looked to Him as if That Rail Was
Hollow Part Way
it. 'Well, I certainly can't if I sit
here all day!" With that he jumped
down to the rail below him. He was
half way across when he noticed a
crack In It. It looked to him aa if
that rail was hollow part way. A
great idea cam to him. His eyes
grew bright with excitement. He ran
the length of the rail and back again,
looking for an opening. There was
none. Then very slowly and carefully
he worked his way back, stretching
his head over so that he could look
underneath. Almost over to the next
post he found what he had so hoped
to find. What was it? Why, a knot
hole. Yes, sir, a knot hole that
opened right into the hollow in the
rail. It wasn't quite big enough -for
Chatterer to squeeze through, but
that didn't trouble him. He emptied
the corn from his cheeks, and then
he went to work with those sharp
teeth of his, and in a little while, a
very little while, that knot hole was
plenty big enough for Chatterer to
slip through.
His eyes snapped with pleasure as
he explored the hollow rail. "I'll make
this my storehouse!" he cried. "I'll
fill it full of corn, and then when
I am hungry in the winter I can run
down here and fill up. It will be a
lot better than trying to carry the
corn up to the Old Orchard." And
with that Chatterer began the work
of filling the hollow rail with corn.

A HUSBAND TO MARCIA
By CAROLYN BEECHER
Chapter XXXV.
The snow swirled and drifted in the
street, but John Aldrich waa not con
scious of any discomfort as he bent
his head to the wind and more care
fully held the bundle in his arm.
"I'm a fool, a damn fool!. But I
couldn't help it!" be said aloud as
he stumbled a bit and turned cold,
not because of the weather, but be
cause of the fear that he would drop
the precious parcel.
John had been on his way home, a
bit later than usual, tired almost to
nausea, when in the window of a second-hand
shop he had spied a piece
of china. A plate, small to the cas
ual observer, insignificant. If only
the shopkeeper were ignorant of its
value !
John's blood leaped at the thought,
lie was in the shop the plate in his
hands almost without volition of his
own. He tried to keep his voice
steady, casual, when he asked the
price. But it trembled a bit in spite
of all be could do. It is hard for a
connoisseur to hide his greed. As
hard as it is for a miser to conceal
his greed for gold.
The price put upon the plate was
ridiculously low, a mere song com
pared with its worth. John's blood
raced as he counted out the sum. and

He was hapov for a bit. happy with

"The wealhir makes no difference

She was really disappointed. It made
her ill-natured.
John waa carefully unwrapping his
purchase, handling it delicately as on
bandies precious things.
"How much did you pay for that
thing?" Marcia asked as he held It up
for her to look at, drawing her atten
tion to its beauty, telling her why it
was valuable, relating to her in a
few words the history of that parti
cular kind of pottery.
"And you paid twenty dollars for
that thing'" she exclaimed, "when
only to-day I denied myself a new hat
that cost Just that! You pretend you
want me to economise, then waste
perfectly good money on a common

"But it isn't a common china plate,"
John replied, ''and Marcia. it i tha

"I will move the cabinet into the

wearily.
