THE THIRD YEAR. iiy MAiiKL m;mu:jtT ur.vi-:r. DIDMT I1T TO SUE FOR DIVORCE i There Js nothing that .o dison-r- rts the avornRc Now Yorker as to how an out-of-town visitor the sights of Now York, and then find that the isitor is in r.o way impressed. The Moris of the great metropolis that drift to the little western towns ;iro so exaggerated and highly eolortd that wlirn the villager comes on he is disappointed. I!er:ius whatever ho. may ; ee, ho expeetcd a great deal iinro. And the Now Yorker who proudly fliows lihn about is both annoyed and r. if fled at his quirt accoptanoo of ev erything and his utt'-r lack of enthu siasm. In a way Holm had something of this experience when she took Mrs. 5ri!fin to a matinee a fow days after -he had railed. Hut Mrs. Critlin's ark of enthusi- fism was not because she "had expert d a crroat doal nioro. hut only because 5-he was pathetically litless and lndif foront. Unquestionably she was horne noV. Tier heart was ;iot in New York or in any of its siqhts. Helen soon discovered this, and her Toady sympathy went out to the simple home-loving little woman who cared nothing for the luxurious hotel where her husband had chosen to stop, nor for the gnat Fhops at which his wealth nabled him to buy without limit. MioppnI Hut )ne She said idle had been sho-pping only oiirr, for the crowded stores and va riety of poods merely bewildered her. Ami Helm promised to ro with her some afternoon. "James wants me to get some. Hothe while I'm hre. but I don't 1-tinw what fo get," she admitted pa thetically. 1 As they left tho theater and walked .1 couple of blocks to the fashionable restaurant whero Helen had thought it would be interesting to have tea, she found that Mrs. Grittin really was timit about crossing tho streets. She seomed confused by the mass of tratlic .and was plainly relieved when they were afely seated In a palm rcreenrd corner of the tea room. It was a most attractive room. Tho f-olidnoss-of the pale reen and white t'ceorations was softened by the pink shaded lights and tho vase of pink carnations on each table. It was the hour when "afternoon tea" was at its "height, and tho pompous head waiters Tere finding it difficult to seat .'11 the people. An orchestra was plnyinir softly and the murmurous buzz of conversation mingled with the mil- While Helen ordered the tea and toasted muffins. Mrs. fJriltin looked r. round at the many richly gowned women who tilled the tables. " Hut there wf:i little interest in her gaze. "When do you expect to return?" asked Helen for want of something Ise to say. "I had hoped we would start Tues day," and there was a wistful note in hf-r voice. "Hut now James says ho .vill have to stay at bast another week." Newildernl Iiv City. "Then I'm afraid New York doesn't r.ppeal to you," smiled Helen, "if after cnly a week you're anxious to get aw ay." "1 think it bewilders me. T can't get used to the rush and noise. It seems to mo that everyone has worked themselves up to a feverish pitch for which they must relax tho next mo ment, but they never do." "No. I suppose New Yorkers never really do relax," mused Helen. "When my mother was here she said it seem ed to her that every one had been de layed somewhere and was hurrying to make up for lost time." "Ye, that' how it impressed me. Perhaps if I wore younger I could get into the spirit of things more, but now " there was a quiver in her voice: "Oh, T think I'm homesick." "Hut Mr. firitlin seems so much in terested in tho, city," murmured Helen, not knowing what to say. "Oh. yes. James loves excitement. And he is interested in everything. T suppose I ought to try to keep up with things more just for his sake. Hut somehow I can't. "That'. another reason why I'm nnxiot, to get hack because James seems farther awav from me lie re. At home, while he has other interests, still we have the interest of the homo together. Hut here we haven't any thing, he doesn't tell me about tiie tilings hfc's doing; here. because he knows I wouldn't understand. Oh, I wish I hadn't always given all my tiuiH t the home and tho children: if only I had spent --orne of it keeping In touch with things!" Too I.ato, She Sa. "Hut can't y?u do that now?" asked Helen eagerly. "You have so much time and every opportunity." Mrs. Ciritfin shook her head. "No, if too late now, I couldn't if I tried. I haven't the incentive any. more. Ami he's gone too far beyond me I could never catch tip. It's the money." sully. "If James hadn't made so much money we'd be much nearer together now. It isn't his fault. He wanted me to go to places and do things with him. but I was always too busy taking t are of the bouse ami children. Now the chil dren are grown up and the house, well, we have so many servants now there isn't very much left for me to '." Then suddenly realizing how much she had said, she Hushed slightly. "I don't know why I'm saying all this. I'm afraid it's being alone so much in that hotel that has made me morbid."

Helen had had a glimpse of the heart ache of another woman. And it whs a very different heart ache from anything Fhe had ever known. Here was a woman whom th world would think had everything that wealth and a loyal, kindly husband could Kive. And yet because she could not share her husband's interest, be- eause he had progressed while she stood FtiM she now felt pitifully help less and alone. Her husband had outgrown her. Anil for a woman there is no greater tragedy than this. Always it seems a ?low but inevitable growing apart. As the man's Interests broaden, the wom an's seem to grow more narrow. Under any circumstance a woman ages more "quickly than a man. and when he lives a. vigorous active life, and she an Inactive one the differ ence is much more marked. She will become, an old woman while he is still in his prime, with his whole attitude tovads life a youthful one. A Tragedy. And now as Helen sat opposite Mrs. Clriffin she vaguely sensed all this. She had seen Mr. Griflin hut once, and then for a few moments, but it had been long enough for her to real ize that In every way except In years he was much younger than hi.s wife Helen looked across the table at tho plain little woman in her simple black gown, and realized more than ever the tragedy that was in her life. And as Helen always applied every thing to herself, she now began a rigid self-scrutiny as to whether she was in the least danger of drifting into the same mistake. W'hh she keeping tip with Warren's interest as much as she might? Did she encourage him to talk over with her his work? She thought with alarm of the many evenings that he buried himself in his papers and hardly spoke to her, and now, lately, he had told her very little of his plans. AVhen she left Mrs. Criffin at tho entrance of the great hotel she walked slowly home, planning countless ways in which she would Interest herself anew in Warren's work, and in all the things that interested him. At any cost she could not stand still while he progressed. Never would she let him outgrow her. Woman Who Couldn't Speak. Clear English is Misunder stood by Attorney Wanted to Fix Land Deal. That she nf-ver had the slightest in tention of filing a divorce complaint against her husband, Lawrence Fleu gel, and that she paid a visit to the attorney who filed her suit for her simply to arrance for jv land doal, was the statement of Mrs. Emma Fleugel who has signed an affidavit setting forth thee facts and which will be submitted in court shortly unlesa the case i dismissed. Mrs. Fleugel speaks rather broken Knglish. She went to tbe attorney to arrange the deal and did not succeed in getting her meaning before him clearly. He told her to come back later and he would have the papers ready for her and she returned and signed what she supposed were the documents necessary to protect her in the land sale. Instead she found out that she had unwittingly asked for a divorce from her husband. Her spouse heard about it and went to see his wife about the question. She denied having asked for a divorce and declared that she had no intention of seeking a separa tion from her husband. The two of them then hired another attorney to undo the action of the first one. The divorce complaint which was filed in court alleges that the husband would not work, that he was addicted to liquor, that he had struck her and accused him of trying to murder her. The counter affidavit shows that none of these are true. Mrs. Fleugel de clared that she had never mentioned some of ' the things set forth while others she recognized as strange pre versions of what she had tried to tell him about the land deal. Mrs. Fleugel sincerely regrets the occurrence as it has pitted both her and her husband In a wrong light. WILL KEEP PRISONERS . BUSY BREAKING STONE ELKHART. Intl., March 2S.
