Consequently he silently propped the
evening paper against the sugar bowl
j and continued reading the column of

Mrs. Jones stood the strain of si- j

burst forth desperately : "Well what'
new down town?"
"Nothing much" said Jones auto-
matlcaily. :
"Have a good day down at the of-

Jones. j
"Has Drown been giving you any '
mor trouble?" 1
"Nope" he grunted shortly. !
"How does your new stenographer I
get on?"
There was no Ridden trap In this
question no secret Jealousy concealed.
Jones's new stenographer was an
elderly maiden who wore spectacles
and goloshes and Mrs. Jones's mind
was perfectly serene reardlng her

down on the table.
Mrs. Jones's lips quivered. She
burled her face In her handkerchief.
"Now don't start that!" said Jones.
"You know I didn't mean to hurt your
feelings."
These were just the words needed to
start Mrs. Jones off In full cry liter-
ally. Her husband listened to her
sobs for n moment and then as his
wife begun to pour forth a torrent of
reproach he twisted uncomfortably
for a few minutes and then angry
both nt himself and at her jumped up
nnd put on his hut and stalked out of
the fiat banging the door behind him. I
Straightaway he went to the corner!
emporium hoping to find some old
! cronies there with whom he could j
I laugh away his disgust with things In
general. But he found none present
i nnd after a solitary drink went out
I and slowly walked down tho street.
Accusing thoughts assailed him.
He reproached himself as he thought
of her cooped up In the flat all day.
But at the thought of the ceaseless
flow of language he gritted his teeth
and went cn down to a bowling alley
where he found some friends and Im-
mediately joined In the sport.
It ws midnight when the play
ceased. Then his conscience began to
trouble him. Suppose burglars had
broken Into the house during his ab-
sence? Suppose there had been a
fire with him the natural protector
away? Suppose his wife In her ex-
citement and resentment should throw
herself oh. no that was foolish. And
yet he had heard of women doing that.
He worked himself Into such a fever
that he entered the darkened flat vita
a horrible feeling of foreboding. He
entered bis wife's bedroom and thar
lsy
No. his wife had net bn shot. She
was sleeping peatv-fully. But she
awoke promptly and proceeded with
ber discourse glvtog such a tongue

HOW EXPERTS FORM OPINIONS
Distinguishing Marks May Be Forged
but the Man Who Knows Can-
not Be Deceived.
A dealer In antiques was talking
about art experts. "Take for in-
stance" he said "an expert in old
pewter. You think perhaps he dis-
tinguishes old pewter by the marks
the Tudor roses the maker's name
and so forth? Hless jour heart those
marks are continually forged. No he
distinguishes old pewter by the feel.
"It. is like the china expert. He
with his eyes closed will distinguish
hard and soft paste china. It's the
feel again his fingers trained by
years and years of study till each
one has a brain in it. I
"Oriental rug experts have a very
subtle sense of rug differences. Some-
times they distinguish u rug by its
smell the smell of Ihe wool and the
dyes. This seems incredible till you
think of the Harris tweed that im-P""
ported cloth that you yourself can:
distinguish by its smell the smell
wnicn never leaves it or the peac
smoke of the cottage wherein It was
woven on a hand loom.
Wool sorters a less highly paid
class of experts can take up a hand
ful of wool and by Its color tell you
whether it came from Texas from the
territories from England or from
Canada. The soil you see gives its
own color to the wool."
Varieties of Honey.
A sore throat and a rasping cough
ed the writer to call In at the stores
with a view to the purchase of honey.
Lemon and honey are extremely sooth
ing and the overplus of the latter can
be used on the breakfast table. The
assistant said they had plenty of
honey got it fresh every day. "What
honey Is it?" asked the man with a
Bore throat huskily. "Twenty-one cents
a pound" replied the salesman and it
came out that he had no notion that
there were varieties of honey. His
Idea was that all honey was English
and he bad never heard of Irish honey
let alone of that superb quality that
the Connetnara bees produce or of
the heather honey or that from the
West Indies. Grocers and purchasers
should be educated in the various ex-1
cellences of honey. London Chronl-'

often a dangerous disease but it
