-Mrs. S.'M. H. Pint!.
There was 11 wide spread opinion
unions: tho married ladles of liN in-
qimliilnnco that Tom Vlllari thought
Hither ton much of his elinnnliig "eTf
and rather too little of hi charming
wife. This opinio 1 ccntalned perhaps
1111 element of truth. Tom had so long
been accustomed us 11 bachelor to
study his own pleasures and Inclina-
tions thnt when he married It did not
como nt nil natural to him to study
those of mint lie.' person lie hud no
desire to neglect Ills wife or to treat
li-r hellishly. Indccu. If It had oc-
curred t him that he was doing so
he would Instantly h.ivo ileslsicd. Hut
It didn't. Ills wife seemed to him til-
wr.)K perfectly happy nnd Mitlsflcd.
Tom wan conscious that she adored
him nnd believed In him Implicitly.
She had plenty of money to buy flocks
mill KlllcK-l'UIK'KM. Mil enjoyed excel-
lent health flood society had opened
Its doors to her. She could do very
much what she plciifcd. Above all
she had lately beeu blessed with that
object nt one so dear nnd such 1111
endless soiuie of amusement to the
female heart -u live baby of her own.

Hut If you hid questioned pretty
Mis. Villain on ibis point and bad ob-
tained 1111 absolutely honest reply from
her you would ltavd found that there
was Just one thing more which she
did desire nainely-that her Tom were
rather more il-juieutt- In his habits.
She never eoii'plalned; never even
mentloiiea the grievance to her dmr-
est frlend of whom more feinluniuui
she had nt least a sco-e. Hut by lit-
tle signs and tokeiifwlihli thoM-artlcss

None of them however was quite
to ludlgiuiut with hliu as was Malsie
I'lpplnghioiic. his wife's sister. Mnlsle
was n sf mewiint exacting oung lady.
She entertained the MrU-tcst Idens of
liuirilal luty. Accoiiliug toiler 11 mar-
ried limu ought never to spend 11 n

side unless be were out In the company

as much to Tom. He the wi etch-

haps you'll tell the wife when she
i omes down fimu the nursery that
she needn't sit up for me."
Malsie had blushed crimson and had
gasped at her lirolli-lii-liiw with
speechless Indignation while ho had
gone out whistling a tune lu the best
of tempers mid splrlts-n perfect mon-
ster (It seemed to his sister-lu-law) of
beartlchsness nnd levity
Tho very next day ho gave another
characteristic e.s.unple of his Hellish-
ness. "My dear" he said to his wife lu the
com so of dinner "i shall not want
brcnkfmt till Uo'ehek to-iuorrow..is I
am not going to business. The fact Is"
he explained "I've nrrunged to drive
down with a fe v friends to I'psom to

of It dear will vnu pie 1x0 tell the cook
to prepare for us a good cold luncheon

o'clock. I've ulriiidy given singleton
the order to see nbout the ehiinpagiie."
"Very well. 'tt " she said with
Just the suspicion of 11 sigh which her
husband Intent upon his dinner did
i.ot notice.
Miss MaNlo. however sat upilght lu
her chair ami legaidlug her brother-
Inlaw Indignantly demanded:
"Aro you not going to take Kitty nnd

"Well no my dear Mnlsle I had not
thought of doing so" uusweied Tom.
"Wo nro 11 part.v of men only you see."
"Oh!" cried Mnlsle with a contemp-

This illusion to her ndmlrcr had Ita

"Out with those hampers Single-

"Y-e-e-s sir."
"I'll give you a hand. Singleton."

lug at Tom's side. Charles was 11 1-
ways observed to be lu great force at
a picnic. There was nothing be en-
joyed more than helping to unpack
nod distribute the eatables.
! "Thank you sir" said Singleton.
"This llrst hamper Is the lunch sir.
I mid that there farther one the wine."

wine and I'll open the lunch. Hut

I (ioilng grinned colored slightly mi-
j der his bronzed skill and proceeded

Tom saw him glvo a sudden start;

amine tho contents of the hamper

lilted up with rugs and cushions t(
serve 11s n Kirtable bassinette nnd se-
curely strapped Inside by n wide vvnlst
licit Just now nwnko and somewhat
solemn and bewildered lay that plump
nnd jovial Infant "the most nnlllng
baby thnt was ever short-coated." The
youngster's bottle was fastened to tin
side with string and one of his podgy
bauds was already feeling for tho
India rubber connecting pipe.
"Hy Jove!" remarked Goring feel-
ingly ns ho bent down nnd placed thf
tube In the tiny groping lingers. "The

wants his lunch ns well as we. And
I wish" 'he added with 11 lugubrious
look "that we had half as good 11
chance or getting It."
"Ujioii my word!" gasped Tom. "I
wonder whom we have to thank for
this. I-I-"
He wns Interiupted at this minute
bv a crv of dismay from Singleton.
'"Good Gawd sir!" exclaimed tho
butler. "Good On will"
"Another pleasant surprise In-
quired Charles Goring with gloomy
resignation.
"Some one's a bin and tampered with
tills wine case since I packed It sir.
It's a cruel tilck they've played me. I

Singleton had good reason lo be (lis-
maved The contents of the wine case.
Instead or a dozen or champagne
proved to be a dozen of baby's food.
Amid the general consternation which
this discovery caused the butler turned
nwny his woe-licgone face and stealth-
ily chinked some gold In his breeches
pocket.
"Why- which vvhleli-on earth Is
the the real one?" gasped Tom Vll-
lars. He had Just entered the nuisery
holding his son nnd heir lu his arms
nnd could lint illy believe his eyes when
he saw Kitty with another baby upon
h"r knee scrubbing combing nnd oth-
erwise persecuting that helpless In-
fant. "Kh?" exclaimed Kitty looking up
nnd stnrtlng violently; "whose child
have you got there. Tom? Why It Is
dressed up In some of Tony's things."
she added suddenly. "That's the best
cape I"
"Kr-Kr I-s-s-n't this one T T
Tony then?" stnmmered the dismayed
Tom who seemed almost liereft of his
senses by this new surprise. "I I
thought"
"You never menu that you mistook
that hideous little goblin for our
Tony!" cried Mrs. Vlllars with unusual
energy.
"No" replied the unhappy father.
"You see. If I'd looked at the little
beggar rather more closely I should
have known the difference nt a glance.
Of course. Tony's nose Is a trifle
turned up."
"Turne'l up?" Interposed the mother
with something like n scream. "Oh
Tom how ran you say such a thing
when he has the sweetest little Greek
nose"
"Just so" said Tom hurriedly. "I
meant that. And then of course
Tony's eyes are blue"
"Hlue? Oh. Tom-hazel!" cxjiostu.
lated the outraged Kitty moved to tho
verge of tears.
"To be sure. I meant hazel. I"
A loud burst of laughter from behind
saved poor Tom Vlllars from further
floundering lu the mire. Mnlsle had
entered quietly during the above dia-
logue and could now restrain her mer-
riment 110 longer.
-I had better explain." said this
young lady when she could speak "!
fore your respective eyes quite start
from your respective heads or Tom
lands himself in still more hopeless
dltllciiltles. The Joko was mine Tom.
I Kitty knew nothing about It. I bor-
' rowed n baby of aliout the saino size
j mid coloring as Tony"
. "It's no such thing" Intel runted
Mrs. Vlllars Indignantly. I never saw
two babies less alike."
"Prom a poor woman In my district"
continued Mnlsle not heeding the In-
terruption "dressed It up in somo of
Tony'rt things and- Tom you know
the lest."
Tom was a sensible as well as a
good-natured man. He saw that the
laugh had gone hopelessly ngalnst him-
self and that to betray anger and an-
unyuuee would only make him look
more foolish. At the same time he
could not trust himself to keep control
or his temper lu the presence or tri-
umphant Mnlsle so he showed his dis-
cretion by dropping the borrowed In-
rant into the nearest chair and making
himself Immediately scarce.
When he was gone Mnlsle told tho
whole story to her sister.
"You see" she said at the end or her
narrative "Singleton was In the se-
cret nnd so was dipt. Goring. So
there wns no danger or the baby be-
ing suffocuted. Hut don't tell Tom
that inlml."
"It wns n great shame upon Tom"
said Kitty taking side now as un
grateful women will with her husband
ngalnst whose lll-trcatmeut she hud
1 just been vindicated. "I wonder you
could play hliu such 11 horrid trick."
1 "Pooh! Serves hliu right" retorted
Malsie with a toss or her head. "It
I will teach hliu for tho future not to
' treat you iih 11 nurserymaid."
