HONEYMOON
THERE was but one imallest blot
on tha bllBsfulnesa of the honey
moon. That cams toward the end
after the arrival of a certain Louli
Bradford of New York City.
It was not because Mr. Bradford
was so perfectly poised and polished
and manicured or because be made
such apt remarks or wore sucb beau
tifully tailored clothes or en be
cause bis balr lay so gloriously
sleek. No, it was his lordly assurance
In the presence of the waiters that
James envied and Jane desired to
have James emulate.
It the waiters bad happened by
any chance to have been of African
descent then Mr. Bradford mlpht
have envied the brilliant ease with
which Mr. Stlmson handled thorn,
but at this particular hotel, the
waiters, unfortunately, were as
white as their hearts were black and
they spoke a strange and unknown
lingo that Mr. Bradford understood
and James didn't.
Both the head waiter and his min
ions took one look at James, labeled
blm, docketed him, despised and
neglected him thereafter. James'
tips were quite as lavish as those of
Mr. Bradford, but he got only the
most obscure Ill-placed tables, the
most transitory service.
This naturally enough Irritated
Jane, the loveliest and one of tbe
best-dressed young women In the
hotel. She kept urging her husband
to assert himself and copy Mr. Brad
ford's masterful ways. James, alas,
could do no better than to bribe the
head waiter by a gift of ten dollars
Into promising better tables In tho
future a promise sometimes ful
Oiled and sometimes not. Jane's re
marks when they were not, made
James tingle all over with shame.
"You like masterfulness In a
man?" be asked once, orumbllng his
bread In nervous fingers.
"Yos, of course, to a certain de
gree. Every woman does," said Jane
Impatiently.
"Then 1 don't altogether see, If you
admire that sort, how you ever hap
I e n e d to marry me," answered
lames miserably. "I'm not masterful,
t never was, I never will be. Didn't
you know that until now?"
"You can be It you'll Just assert
pourself a little and don't let every
one walk over you who wants to,"
aid Jane a little uneasily. "It's only
a question of making up your mind
to bo."
"I think there Is more to It than
that."
Bomeone came up to their table
then to speak to Jane, and the sub
ject was dropped.
James returned from his honey
moon a thoroughly happy but slight
ly puzzled young man with a deter
mination to assert himself more fre
quently In the future and to take up
on the first possible occasion the
tudy ot the art of maaterfulness
and to cultivate on the side a darkly
sinister gleam In his eyes.
A FEW days after the return ot
Mr. and Mrs. James Brewster
Stlmson III from their honeymoon
and while they were still happily
engaged In what Is callod In New
Concord. "Bottling down," Judge
Holcomb dropped In to see Miss
Julia Pratt.
The Judge had spent the previous
evening with the Roger Bennetts
and while tbore had overheard Lu
orotla Bennett and some ot ber
young crowd laughing over the ac
count ot the Stlmson wedding In tbe
Dally Globe. It bad been written up
In the society reporter's best and
most flowery style, but what excited
the dorlsion of the young people was
the line whlcb spoke of the bride
groom leading the bride to the altar.
They had Insisted that it should
have been revorsod to read, "When
the bride led the bridegroom."
"Aud they were right," com
mented the Judge. "Jane cortotnly
did all the chasing, but she landed
James as neat as you please. And
now tho poor . . ."
"Do you think It's nice to talk
about a sweet pretty girl like Jane
Northrup sume as if she was some
sort of a she-hyuna?" interrupted
Miss Julia Indignantly.
"I haven't said a word against
lane except to admire the clever
ray she went after James and

I caught him. There's nothing new
about that. Women have been drag
ging men to tbe altar and marrying
them in spite of their screams ever
since the days ot the cave men."
"It's a pity all you men can't be
locked up in glass cases," sniffed
Miss Julia.
"Now, .Miss Julia," said the Judge
pleasantly, "you know more in a
minute than all the women In this
town In a million years and you
needn't try to pretend to me that
James ever so much as looked In
Jane's direction until she made up
her mind she wanted blm to. It's
Thackeray, Isn't It, who says that
any woman, unless she has an actual
bump on her back, can marry any
man she picks out, easy aa easy.
Why, I believe you put Jane up to
marrying James In tbe first place
though 1 don't expect you'll ever ad
mit It"
"I wouldn't say I did and I wouldn't
say I didn't," snapped Miss Julia
rocking vigorously back and forth,
"but I do say that young folka don't
know their own minds to. speak of,
and it is a blessed good thing for a
flibbertigibbet like James to marry
a sensible practical girl like Jane."
"I suppose Jane didn't know ber
own mind."
"Well, for pity's sake, what do you
want for your proclouB James? It's
my opinion that he could have
looked a lot farther and fared a lot
worse. It wasn't so very long ago I
hoard you saying that Jane Northrup
was the best-looking girl In this
county and a catch fur any man. Now
what have you got against her? I
believe you're jealous."
"C'lE looks too much like her
mother," said the old man medi
tatively, "and I don't like the set of
that woman's Jaw. Jane's fairly
plump now and pink and white and
her eyes are so bright and sparkling
that, like an old fool, it never oc
curred to me to look at her jaw. But
only yesterday 1 saw hor walking up
the street with Jntnes and It came
to me all ot a sudden that she was
ber mother over ogalu, Jaw and all."
"Mrs. Northrup Is an awful hard
worker and them that does the work
generally gets the running of things.
I guess you men lot old Bill Clancy
run the Bachelors' Club year In and
year out and never say boo your
selves. And you mark my words. If
James hadn't married Jane he would
have married that flighty little Le-.
lie Harris. I suppose you would have
liked that better?"
"I don't know. Leslie's sweet as a
peach and 1 wouldn't mind marrying
hor myself, but 1 don't like tbe breed.
I reckon that I'm as hard to suit as
a fussy old rooster with one chicken.
But, Miss Julia, if you could have
honrd. JameB speak to the Republi
can convention in Topclca last month
your eyos would have popped out of
your head. They cheered him for a
quarter of an hour when he got
through and him Just twenty-four.
Thoy called him silver tongued but
bo's more thnn that"
"You think he's made of pure gold,
don't you?" Jibed Miss Julia good
naturedly. (
"Well, I don't know. He's made of
something protty Uue. But he's tem
peramental as a young colt that
hasn't been hitched. Do you know
that that boy remombera every man
be moots and hfa name and where
he met him? Presidents have gone
Into the White House for less. What
ho lacks Is conceit JUBt natural
evoryday conceit such as every
young pup ot his age Is bursting
with. Miss Julia, nro you sure Jane
knows how to handle him right?"
Miss Julia was vory sure and grad
ually convinced the Judge. Later the
two old gossips talked of Leslie
Harris.
"Socms to me I don't see Sam
Flotcher cluttering up hor side porch
as much as he did," said the Judge.
"No, 1 don't bollove ho does, come
to think of It. But Bud Howard Is
thore a lot and I like him much bet
tor than 1 do that uppoty Sara
Flotchor. Losllo never lacks beaux.
1 do believe that if thore were eighty
girls In this town and one man thai
Lesllo would have him."
"You don't suppose she cared
much about James, do you?"
"No-o," said Miss Julia reluctant
ly. Some way sho alwnys folt s vagui
uncomfortable sense ot guilt when
she thought ot Lesllo, "She seemi
Just as choerful and happy as ever
ond I've heard her any a hundred
times If I've heard her say It once
that James and Jnno wero made for
each othor."
What Miss Julia did not admit was
that It had occurred to her frequent
ly of late that she did not hear Les
lie's contagious rippling laugh as
often as she had In tho past.
