Mr Bowser eats bis dinner, smokes his

'I'm sorrj. of course, but then you must
have more sense. I'll go up to bed mid
you can come when you get ready If you
are going to kick around much, you'd bet
ir sleep in tho spare room."
Now and then the tables are turned
Mr Bowser comes home to lunch, drag
gtug his legs after him and looking pale
and scared.
'What's the matter!" asked Mrs How
ser, us soon as he steps into the house
"Got a sore throat and I feel feverish
11 think I'm going to be slckl"
She doesn't call out that It's Just as she
expected and declare that no husband in
New York lias sense enough to look out
for his health She knows ho was out in
a draft in his shirt sleeves, but she doesn't
even mention It. On the contrary, sho ro

"Try and eat a little something and then
He down, You'd belter gargle your throat
and then tie it up."
"Do you you think Its anything seri

"1 hope not, but it's best to be on the
safe side. You are subject to quinsy, you
know, mid spinal meningitis begins just
this way."
"1 believe I'm going to die," gasps Mr.
Bowser, and lie grows so weak that shu
has to take otT his coat and vest and get
him on the lounge. Everything about tho
house is ordered to go on tiptoe, and even
the cat Is put out and the clock stopped.
After his throat has been tied up, his shoes
taken off mid a quilt tlnown over him Mr
Bowser plaintively Inquires
"Don't you think you'd better send for a
doctor?"
"Not Just yet, dear I don't think it's
very serious."
"Mrs Bowser, I believe I'm already
struck with death!"
"Nousensul You've Just got a little in
(lamination of the tonsils."
"I've felt for some days as If a great ca
lamity hung over this household Hadn't
we better have two doctors?"
"Just try and get to sleep, Mr. Bows
and I'll warrant you'll feel better

"Ahl how 1 suffer," he groans. "Y

Mrs. Bowser lays her baud on his fort
head tenderly, and the tears como'to his
eyes and he suddenly becomes a great big
booby. Shu has to hold his hand to get
him to sleep, and when he wakes up he
wants tea and toast and jelly and he is a
petulant as a sick baby until Dually put to
bed. He Is a new man when he awakes in
the morning, and when she asks after his
throat he replies!
"Throat humph. Mrs. Bowser, for
about live horn's yesterday I was hovering
between life aud death. Had it been you
you would have died ten times over, but
grit pulled me through."
