WHEN MADAME WAS AWAY.

window Unit opened on i lit vcrnnmi. u
wns a warm nifjlit and the window was
open. Hut the woman wus supposed to
be rending, and the men forgot her ex
istence. Snatehes of the conversation
floated lit to her. and as the theme was
particularly interesting to femininity
the woman listener'. It eonlt'ti't he
wrong, she argued, because ore man
was her husband and the other was her
tk-arest friend's husband. Their talk
amused and interested her so much she
1old it to a friend, and that person re
peated it in a newspaper office, and s'o
it was n secret no longer, says the l!uf-
falo Express.
The theme of the men's conversation
is not an unuMial one in isulralo tins
mouth. Doens of other men could take,
part in it if they chose. Tlie (Unrest
friend's husband was trying to keep
house while his' wife and the children
were in the country for a few wieeks.
"You know. Clifford. 1 can make a
cup of coffee and broil a steak as well
as the next person, but when it comes
Jo washing ditlhes., 1 Hunk, that's nil.
How the women keep the dishes in
shape is more than 1 know. Then it
heats all how untidy the bridegroom
gets. 1 can't understand it. for 1 never
had any difficulty in keeping my shoes,
ties, collars and those kind of things in
their place before. I suppose I forget
to put them away now, that 1 have tlie
breakfast to cook."
The woman listening laiigfied. for she
knew all about certain hairs and boxes j
which her dearest friend had in which j
she stowed awav her husband's soiled
linen and handkerchiefs and kept hi.s
neckties straight. She remembered,
too, her friend telling her slie had left,
-everything iu upple pie order for Her
bert. "He'll get along nicely." the lit
tle woman had said, "for the flat is in
perfect order; there isn't a
soiled ar
ticle anywhere, and I ve left a supply
of cooked things and have told the
milkman and ba'ker to call every morn
ing in time for breakfast."
"It wasn't so bad until I had made my
first breakfast," the voice on the veran
. da went on, "that was not a success,
for after 1 had made the coffee and put
tin the eggs 1 sat down to read the pa
per a minute. What's a minute when
you want to find out about ttie situa
tion in China'.' Hut it was long enough
for the coffee to boil all over the range
and ,the eggs to get as hard as bricks.
What coffee was left tasted queer, and
3 hadn't time to wnsh the diwhes. I was
sure I had used only one plate and a cup
and saucer, but there was enough for
lialf a dozen persons. After I tidied up
the kitchen I thought 1 would look
over the evening paper, when 1 remem
bered I hadn't mnde my bed yet. I
could have sworn burglars had been in
the room, for there were more shoes
and neckties and things- lying around
than 1 could wear in a week. I couldn't
hegin to put them away! .Marion has
one of those long, narrow boxes for my
neckties, and 1 tried to straighten the
things' out and put them away as I
usually keep them, but it took too
long."
Again the woman on the other.side
-of the window laughed softly, for she
remembered her friend telling how Her
bert nhvuys tried every pair of shoes he
owned before he could decide which
. fines to wear and how his necktie box
find to be tied every morning as regu
larly as the bed was made.
"It is two week's now since Marion
urrt nway," the man continued, "nnd
though J have written her that every
thing is rtH right and that I enjoy
L(.!!5e):e?ping, I tihall be mighty glad
1o if:- her beck. Every dish in the house
iv-as used nearly a week ago, and I have
given up trying to wash more than the.
piate nnd cup I need for breakfast.
After this I am going downtown for
breakfiiRt and I am going to send for
the washerwoman toconieand elean up
ilie house. I told Marion it wasn't nec.
rssary to have anyone come in; that I
could keep things going for a month
all right. Our Hat is s-o small there
never seemed much to do, but either I
am too bury at the office or I haven't
felt so well as usual, for this house
keeping beats me."
"S'ou'Jl be glad when U is time for
your wife to come home, eh'."' mild the
friei.d, n he knocked th'' ti b - uf!' tlie
flirt of his c'gar, and the wr'ian who
listened made up her mind she woiilll
write her friend that very night and
tell her how glad Herbert would be to
ice her and tlie children.
