Social
Obligations
"Dear," Bald Mrs. Westcott dramat
ically to her husband as she took the
newspaper out of bis hands to compel
him to give his undivided attention to
her, "we've got to entertain! That's
11 there Is to it!"
"Well, why have we?" demanded
Westcott.
"Why, I'm simply ashamed to look
our friends In the face, and actually
the Ruggleses and the Squires will
think we are stingy! They've lived
here nearly a year and I've never
even had a luncheon in all that time!
Think of it! And I receive invita
tions almost every day! Hut there's
one comfort I don't go any more!
So I really don't owe a lot of people
more than the Invitation .myself."
Westcott listened helplessly, trying
In vain to catch a glimpse of the
headlines In the newspaper that his
wife held. "Yes," he said, In a most
desultory manner, feeling In duty
bound to make some remark in the
pause.
"Yes. that's it!" went on Mrs. West
cott. "Well entertain! We'll do some
thing liig, too! Come, help me plan!"
t-'he Ih'iimed on him as she threw the
newspaper behind her, regardless of
i's landing on the floor.
"Rut," remonstrated her husband,
ikly, "these big affairs are are
rather an expense, aren't they?"
"Oh, why didn't I think of it be
fOPit" Mrs. Westcott asked, ignor
ing his remark. "There, they've been
jrone only two months and I've owed
them something so long! I could
tiave had It a week, say after they
nailed and " She paused in rapt
contemplation.
"Why, my dear," interposed West
cott, surprised by the peculiar trend
of his wife's remarks. "You say you
wish you could have given it a week
after they sailed! I assume that you
mean the Uankins. But why a week
after they sailed? Why was that time
any better than the present?"
"Why, you see," Mrs. Westcott
gazed on him In pity for his lack of
comi'i lienslon, "you see, I could have
Invited them!"
Westcott took a deep breath. He
looked at his wife earnestly while his
brain tried to fathom the mystery.
"You wanted to give It early so you
could Invite the Ranklns to come to
it a week after they sailed! Ah, yes!
Ho clear so so shall we call It
lucid?"
Oh, bother!" Mrs. Westcott impa
tiently exclaimed. "Why can't you
understand things? I always have to
explain everything to you! If I In
vited them men tney a owe me an m
on. I'd have paid what I owe
i m, imt they couldn't come because
they'd be sailing for Europe at the
time."
Westcott eyed his wife in admira
tion. "Are you going to to run the whole
party on the same principle?" he
queried, respectfully.
"Well, we'll issue about twice as
many invitations as the house can
hold," she explained, the fire of vic
tory in her eyes. "There are the
Browns. They're going to Florida
this winter. I heard that they leave
!n about a week. That's five, for I'd
have to have the girls, too," She
looked at her husband exultantly.
"Oh, and there are the Warrens and
the Smiths. They're going hunting to
gether this fall somewhere up north
and they'll be gone a month, I know!
That's seven with Mr. Warren's sis-

ters!" Westcott pulled out an u
velope and put down the figures."
'Then there are the doctor and his
mother. He told me the other day
that she wasn't at all well and he
thought he'd take a run out west to
go with her to his sisters in Cali
fornia. I could invite them!"
"And there are the minister and his
wife and his son and daughter," put
In Westcott, with proper pride In his
offering. "He's going to accept that
church in Rochester. So we can in
vite them!"
Mrs Westcott glanced at her hus
band to detect any fraud in his air
of frankness, but he was adding the
names to his list enthusiastically.
"There are twenty that can't come,"
he counted, finally.
Mrs. Westcott sighed a deep sigh
of thanksgiving. "That's all right,
then." she said. "Now, we'll just ask
I our own immediate friends In to tel
I that night and have a good time.
That'll be eight or ten altogether
! and, thank goodness, most of my obll
i gatlons will be paid!"
Then she handed his newspaper to
him smilingly.
Char.ssd Her Mind.
A young couple had been courting
j for several years and the young man
' seemed to be in no hurry to marry,
j Finally, one day, he said:
; "Sa!, I canna marry thee."
"How's that?" asked she.
"I've changed my mind, " said he.
"Well, I'll tell thee what we'll do,"
! said she. "If folks know that it's
thee as has given me up I shanna be
able to get another chap; but If they
thing I've given thee up 1 can get
all I want. So we'll have banns pub
lished and when the wedding day
comes the parson will say to thee,
'Wilt thou have this woman for th-r
wedded wife?' and thou must say, 1
i will.' And when he says to me, 'Wilt
! thou hi.ve this man to be thy wedded
j husband?' I shall say, 'I wlnna.'"
The day came, and when the minis
ter asked the Important question the
1 man answered, "I will."
Then the parsoa said to the woman:
Wilt thou have this man to be thy
wedded husband?" and she said:
"I will."
"Why," said the young man furious
ly, "you said you would say 'I winna.' "
"I know that," said the young
woman, "but I've changed my mind
since "-National Monthly.
