lou't look ujsjti matrimony with the
misgivings of (heir elders. Jim's Idea
of a home was a comfortable bouse
with a very nhe wif? in It, or at least
a suit of rooms. He was to own the
house and the wife und the furniture.
The wife was to he there to minister
to his Hants and comforts.
Jennie Owens was the daughter of
a widow. Jennie wis twenty years

destiny nature Intended for them.
This was all very well, but neither

Jim hud his piecuncelved notions of
what h;s wife should be to bim. and
she had her preconceived notions of
what lie should he to her. As soon as)
the honeymoon ended these preconceiv
ed mil ions began to clash. Jim's habit
of savlna; money did uot grow less with
two to provide for. Me kept control of
Uie in ih and pinched his wife for
small expenditures. Me had not been
used to considering the requirements
of tiny one except himself and needed
practice to become used to considering
those of imo! her. He was not exactly
what Ills wife expected to tlnd tlm.
and she thought that In certain re
spects she might make him over. She
remained in their three rooms nil day
and when evening came needed a
change of scene, to say nothing of
recreation. Jim worked hard all day
and when evening came desired to
rest, resides, going out required some
exiiendltiire. If only car fare. And
v. hen It was necessary to spend money
he was used to spending It on himself.
These thiic's caused scraps, and the
scrips gradually grew to be quarrels.
Jennie usually had the right of the
iiestlon, but did not know how to use
It so as to Impress her husband that
he was In the wrong. While ha waa

acted utieducateilly.
one evening Jennie desired Jim to go

she only, was In the wrong Jlra paid
no attention to her pleadings. Then
her mother advisee! her to let him
alone. If he ever came to realize that
he was giving up that which was pleas
ing and ennobling for his preconceived
notions of what a wife should be to
him he would very likely conquer his
pride and return to her If not she
could do no more than she bud done
and the matter must adjust Itself or
remain unadjusted witiio.u any fur

For awhile Jim persuaded himself
that he had acted the part of a strong
man In asserting himself and in re
fusing to live with a woman who. as
he expressed If, would "take the bit
In her teeth and run away with every
thing." Hut he had been very happy
for awhile In his home with his wife.
His mother had taken his part in his
disagreements with his wife, and he
went to live with her. Rut he had
reached an age when a man craves
his own rooftree and hearthstone, and
he was not satisfied. He met with an
accident In his work. and. though his
mother cared for him tenderly, be

rs-aining eyes and a sm'le she weut to
meet him.
"Jennie," lie s.ild. "I treated you
brutally. WlH you forgive me?"
"It was s'l my fault." she replied
"You'll have to stand a lot if you

"I'll try to corns t my faults."
