Vol. 5. No. 43 How the Marburys Came to Change Their Residence By ESTHER VANDEVEER. This story is b.v a crusty old bachelor who knows nothing of tnurriod life. He says he is tired of hearing womeu say that the best way to umuase a man is to feed him well. Mrs. Marbury had married for love and when coming to middle ase still lored her husband. Hut It is an un disputed fact that persons who are closely allied become careless of what they say to each other and give way to frctfulness at slight provocations, while with others they put a guard on their tongues. Frank Marbury was a man not to be easily ruiDed and real ized that lie had a nervous wife. Si when she lost her self control he re tained his own and soothed her as best he could. Ilut persons who nre unrestrained and do not restrain themselves usually grow worse instead of better. Mrs. Marbury was continually getting upset over some trine and at such times would berate her husband unmerci fully, complaining that of all men he was the liardest for n woman to live with. Finally one day during one of her explosions she toid him that she could endure him no longer. Marbury concluded that she must be curbed and took his own way of curbing her. U.UU uay aner tue outburst lie came home and told her that he intended to set up housekeeping on his own account Hp had rented n furnUhed house and would move in at once. Mrs. Marbury looked at him, surprised, but made no objection. "Will you keep a servant V she asked. "I don't know. I shall leave the managera"nt to my housekeeper." "Who will be your housekeeper'" "I have uut ranged one yet. I shall begin by cooking some of my meals myself at home; for others I shall go out to restaurants." Marbury had a faury for cooking and had often supplied the place of n cook at home when one was not to be hired. Servants wore becoming scarcer every day, and he was becoming more valuable on that account. Mrs. Mar bury did not have the knack of cook ery. She had tried to learn the art. but was not made that way. The fact that she was to lose a cook as well as a husband angered her. She flounced out of the room without a word. Marbury kept his word. He remov ed what he most needed to his new res. idence, removing himself there at the J same time. Mrs. Marbury made no ef. fort to bring about a reconciliation. When her husband was about to leave ! he called up from the lower hall, "Goodby, dear!" Hut, though she heard him distinctly and found it dlfllcult to refrain from going down, throwing her arm.i about him and retaining him, she gave him no reply." One of the f.M things Mrs. Marbury did when she 'm 1 herself alone was to hunt for a rc-rnt who could cook.

Under the stress her stom ach was giving out. and her condition was pitiable. One morning the postman delivered a note to her bearing her husband's well known chlrography on the envelope.
