THE LODGE HUSBAND
I Once there was a man, ami hi- was a lodge man. He be
longed tin a do/en different fraternal orders, and he was in
terested in every one of them, tie was secretary ..I one, '
treasurer of another, Kastern [potentate in a :!iir.l, Keeper
of ii, Sacred Coal Scuttle in a fourth and to on through,the

Now these manifold duties kept him out nights—•al
though, iv itt-cli. there's no! particular harm in lhat. It's only

there Isn't some better reason for him i" .stay al home.

As ii happens, this man was married.
lie loved In- wife. too. Sometime* he said lie thought
he'd have tO give up a few of his lodges, they kept him out so
much. But hetixik it out .ii thinking, tic didn't do it.
Nmv the little woman at home, she began to do some
thinking herself, and at last she formulated a BAA
One morning he spied a queer kind of pin on her waist.
"What's that?" asked the man,
"This?" she said; "oh, this is the badge of the Daughters
of the Moon. 1 joined last night while you were at the ban
quet of the lee Dealers Society."
The man looked pretty hard for a minute, but he didn't
say anything. It wasn't up to him. So he took the wisest
course, and kept stilt.
Then, for three solid months, he watched ihe appalling j
thii:.
The second i.rganuation she joined was the Loyal Ver
bena Indies. Then came the t'ronhctcssc.s, followed closely
* i
by the Naoniis. After that she sclecteij the Daughters of
Liberty and the Woman's Reform Association.
Hy this time the nun was gnashing his teeth, but it I
wasn't doing him any good. Slowly he became aware that
what lie called "home" was slipping away from him The
little woman was seldom in now. Sometime* he would go
home for supper and find a note on the table, "Gone to lodge.
Cold ham in pantry" Finally, in a single week. -In added
*to her list of memberships by taking on lite Knights and
Indies i.i the Green Harp, the l.jtli. Auxiliary Brigade ami
the Daughters of Rest.
That was the last straw.
Sunday morning the man stood over the bed .un! looked
jfita sleepy-eyed little woman.
"Here—" he said, "I'll quit if yott wilt. Is it a bargain?"
She put her arms right up. ami grabbed him and kissed
him. "It is? It is!" she cried. "Antl we'll have home again!"
Don't think this is any preachment against fraternal or
ders. It isn't. They are too useful. They help too much.
Too many of them arc real influence* for good in this lyisv
old world of ours.
Rut a man can be too much of ,i lodge man. can't he.
