IRENE’S 1 BIG STICK Edgerton Wilson was the victim of his own dignity. From a child he had taken himself too seriously. As a young man it grew upon him. until he married; and then his wife also fell victim to it—so thought he. although he did not clothe the idea in those words. But he was mistaken His wife was one of the wise ones of the earth She had not been married six months be fore she realized that a certain course must be pursued. "It's entirely too bad." said she to Mrs. 'Ren Wilson, her sister-in-law, "that Edgerton should he spoiled in this manner. He is too gtod a can and it must be stopped. He has rare ability, else he could not hold the posi tion that he does and he is considerate and kind. He is handsomt.too, and all that. But be has no ides of humor, could not possibly see that there eight b>- anything in his seriousness intense ly amusing to others.” "Well. Irene," little Mrs. 'Ren sighed—she sometimes envied her capable sist- r-in-!aw . •'! should think that you could bring him about if any thing couid " _ “Indeed I can." said Irene, nodding a very well groomed head. "I think entirely too much of the real Edger ton to allow this suiierfi- ial trait to mar our happiness." This conversation took jhme on the first anniversary of their marriage and the third rolled around before Irene, to use her own expression, had her husband "right where she wanted him ’ The evening of that day Wil son brought home a lot of books on "Adavnced Thought.” "We have been very happv. Irene." he explained fondly, "but. assuming a dignified air. "it's time we took njj our life's work I have been thinking of this matter for several weeks past and fee! sure that when you look into it. you will agree with me." •rene picked up one of the vol rmes de luxe edition slender and dainty, and ran over the few pages 'The I city of the Inner Life.” she read. "Have you gone over this?” "Know it by heart." replied he. pleased at her interest ”1 always said you were a sensible little wom an." he added, turning to his books “Well you might." said Irene with conviction “And my sense will be the saving of you yet “ But she did not utter these words aloud A week later, during which Wil son was pouring over his books on Advanced Thought, he came home with a thick volume entitled: "The Affinity of Soul Mates” Irene said nothing. She had been sitting up and taking notice for three years and she was not surprised when her steady Edgerton rather shame facedly put it away without showing it to her "Did you bring another book*” she asked with animation, when they sat down for an evening at home. "Yes” he admitted guiltily. “One in the office loaned it to me ” The next day Irene spent largely in reading about affinities. The book w as made up of the writings of sev eral persons prominent In tbe cult and was especially pregnant with the utterances of one Sarah Johnson, who was a regular contributor like wise to the Advanced Thought Semi Weekly, which now held a prominent p!*<~e in their library The w oman’s writings were marked and underscored. Something, the ref • rerca to an incident in tbe woman's childhood, caused Irene to throw down tbe book in triumph. “Could It be Ehe?" she asked her self One thing was certain—she would know For a few moments she used the telephone and after waiting for a short time for the Advanced Thought people, she made at appoint ment to meet Sarah Johnson. She and Sarah Johnson, though miles apart socially, had known each other as children. In fact, years ago Sarah's mother had been Irene's mother's cook and a very efficient cne. at that The girls had become ac quainted through whispered conversa tions held various Saturdays in Mrs. Johnson's kitchen: for that woman brooked no noise in her orderly do main. They had not met for years, and Irene, though not surprised that Sarah, who she had always secretly admired, should be doing anything well, was surprised at her line of work, the work which her husband had frequently underscored In the much thumbed magazines. Admitted to the presence of the Advanced Thought writer, the recog nized her at once. "I came about the afltcKy talk. Sarahsaid Irene by the way of coming to the point, after the greet ings were over. Sarah was glad to see the old ae quaintance. but she was proud and she waited. "You don't believe that twaddle any more than I do." said Irene bluntly. "It pays Dest.' said Sarah. Irene ekvated very straight and very dark brows She had not had to think much about the paying part. 1 “I suppose that it does make some difference." she Biased. “Much,” replied Sarah ■<rartr.iT. ~1 am rettir.g a hold. I have worked at all manlier of employment and this seems to be the only thing in which neither age. color, sex tor social stand.eg makes a difference." Irene was listening with her grace ful head bent in thought. Presently she unfolded the plan to Sarah John son “1 dare net offer you money, Sarah." she said, "ary more than i dared of fer to bribe you in the old days. But yoa see the trend of things and It means a lot to me. 1 ask you to do it as a favor—merely between friends— as when in the old days, you helped about the birds—" “And both were severely spanked for it.” interrupted Sarah reminis cently. "That is true." asserted Irene. “Perhaps 1 ought not to had vou into this." “I'll take n.y chances new as I die then." replied Sarah, rr.d after thank ing her. Irene dfparted. i htrgs w * nt ot for several weeks, until Irene knew that the time for the ma’ing of her husband's soul had come, and she dismissed him with a smile, feeling rather Judas-like. "It is too had. too. too" boy," she said. "Hut he will come home com pletely cured, and would thank me, if he knew—which be never shall." The last article from Surah John son's pen had won a Utter from Wil son The article in qui stior. had been on the ^"A'lness of the Ore." It was full of gold, so he told her. ar.d she had replied in like coin. Now. after a month's correst ondeno . fervid in its intensity, he, with heart beating ut.uer his well-fitting coat, went to see the author of these epistles. He felt many qualms on going to this ap pointment. but he tried to smother them 1-y "holding the thought" of Oneness. Should the friendship he purely platonic, or should he divorce Irene— Irene, whom he still loved, despite the glamor of the other—and marry Sarah Johnson? "It shall be iust as Sarah says." he breathed. "Soul mates should do soul work together and nothing, however dear, should interfere.” Clearly from ter letters. Sarah Johnson understood him as he had never been understood before, as he had longed to be unde stood w hen a child. Yes. It should be just as she said. me hour 'or vuu l. tx .: pointment wss set was late, for Sarah Johnson was a busy woman That night she was billed to speak at the Negro Wom an s league—“How dear and kind of her." he apostrophized. Irene, with all her winsome ways would never have consented to mis sc. Indeed. he himself, he had to confess fas tidious to a degree Ah. well. Sarah must teach him her broad ways He was at her door now. a modest home in Hoyne avenue. He rang the bell and a smart negro girl admitted him and went to summon her mis tress. After waiting a moment, he heard a deep, melodious voice, such a voice—sweet toned and clear, as he had not dared to hope for. Mr Edgerton Wilson. I believe." said the voice. He turned at the sound of the mellow tones and encountered a wom an of magnificent proportions. “1 am Sarah Johnson." said the woman. Wilson stared, gasped, and stared again. He shuddered and choked: and despising hnnself for a coward: tried to pull himself together For though the voice was melodious, the form magnificent, the woman fault lessly attired, she was black—unde niably black “Ton thought I was white." said Sarah Johnson, her full lip curling slightly. Tes. said Wilson, recovering him "and 1 thought 1 was white my 1 self, but I new see my mistake. 1 beg your pardon and I bid you good evening." For an hour he paced the streets, trying to regain his composure and readjust his thoughts, but to no avail. Despise himself, he certainly did. for after all. he was a man. and not a cur. The scales dropped completely from his eyes: be allowed himself but one solace to his wounded, bleed ng. dying self-esteem — Irene should never know Remaining away until the house should be quiet, he crept home a; last: for the first time in his life he was without a latch key. wondering dully how it happened, not knowing that Irene, who had abstracted it from his pocket while be was guiltily kissing her in parting, had sat fingering it for an hour, before rising to admit some one who tapped softly at the basement entrance. It was late before Wilson stood baffled, before his bouse. He found by investigation that he could creep indoors by way of the pantry window, which was some eight feet from the ground. Raising himself with the help of a bit of woodbine, he gently pushed up the a indow and was presently head and shoulders in the room and was in the act of raising one knee to the sill with the intention of drawing up his whole body, when suddenly the window shut down on him with a force so unexpected and so painful that be cried for help, not knowing but that he mould be crushed It was alt stillness throughout the house, but in a moment be heard the beating of feet on the paved yard be low and a second later found himself grasped hands and feet by invisible iorces. The force which he’d hit feet was part of the police force, and a lusty patrolman was drawing him with no gentle hand, towards the ground. Held by strong arms above, he was on the point of thinkirg that bia time had come wk-n oat of the black chaos. Bashed light the electric light of ciwiUr:ka; a»c revealed in it. stood Irene. with long Bowing black fcair. her eyes questioning and fright esed. her cb:'d-like fora: enveloped is a crimson bath robe Kiatiis !e the light. Wilson looked at the jailor of his upper portions, and beheld, to his unmitigated horror, a w orn an of oo'or decked in a red bandana and yellow kttnona. Attired thus, no one but he—he upon whom her features would always be indeli bly impressed, could ever have rerog tiled the dignified Sarah Johnson “Let him go. Sarah 1" commanded Mrs. Wilson, a hereupon Sarah relaxed the Herculean grasp and the bruised mar. fell on to the pavement below, and literally, as well as metaphorical ly. into the arms of the law. Instantly the two women ran out to identify the chagrined and crushed . man “You let him go. Mistah Police man 1“ exclaimed Sarah, in tones of broadest African accent “Dat's ma soul mate! Ain't you. honeyT* she asaed, addressing the drooping disciple of Advanced Thought. “An' he.” she continued. again ad dressing the policeman, with a senti mental leer, "ceme a seekin’ ob his soul mate—a crawling on the wings oh—ob—on the wings of affinity 1” con clud d she triumphantly. Wilson glanced down at his wings of affinity, brushed the dust from the kr.ee of one of them, and tried to avoid Irene's eyes. Much to his re lief. she was ir> ing to explain matters to his captor, who departed. The next evening he was sitting at his kearthside in a very honeymooE iike fashion, feeling rather silly and 'll at ease, but cured. “Rather good sutured of your new cock. ' consultr. -ed he weakly, "to try to get me frotu the clutches « the policeman that way.” “Rather.” assented Irene dryly “1 never interfere with your ::.sd agrnient of the house. Irene." be con tinued alter a parse, "but 1 wish as a favor to uie that you would never keep colors d help. Just as a favor, you know." “A’l right." agreed Irene affably And I've been thinking lately, that 1 haven't been half as interested as I ought to be in your line of thought. Shall 1 get out the books and have a cozy evening of research together?" “You may bum the books.” growled Wilson, leaning back with a sense of comfort and luxury, which he tad not felt for months, in fact, since he had been chiefiy occupied in holding the thought of the "Aliness of the One.” "I'd be glad to be rid of them." he added reaching for the frivo.ous be jeweled little hand of his wife. But Irene did not bum them. She carried them, instead, to a place of safety "For,” she argued, not un wisely. “I might want to use them sometime, as a Big Stick.” HOW TO LIVE TO BE IK Captain Diamond of San Francisco Laos Olive Oil as Age Specific.

He celebra ted tis one hundred and fourteenth birthday anniversary May 1. and con fidently anticipates Peine “Johhcy-on the-spot" to greet Halley s comet when that tramp of the skies comes perambulating back this way 75 years hence He has seen the celestial »ac derer in two centuries and if he sur vives to see it agate he will be well qualified to assure a nervous public that nothing untoward is going to, happen. Captain Diamond was born at Ply mouth. Mass . May 1. JTSd He has a vivid recollection of the war of IS!7. in which tis father served. His first vote was cast in Is!6. in the cam paign that resulted in the election of James Mcnroe as president. He helped to build some of the first railroads in the United States, among them the road from Worcester to Boston, the Old Colony railroad from Boston to Plymouth and the railroad from Al bany to Schenectady. Before he was fifty. Captain Dia mond was as old man. decrepit, rheu matic and plainly on the toboggan. A photograph of him taken at the Time of the Civil war shows that be then looked older Than he does today. It was a: about that time that he evolved the dietetic theories (including the liberal use cf olive oil. both tnternai . !y and externally •. to which he at tributes his advanced age and perfect health. Die: and exercise, he believes, are the secrets cf longevity; and if a man lives right and eats right he can see no reason why the machine should not be kept running indefinitely—per haps—until even the record run made by old Metbusaieh himself Is beaten to a fraxxle. Captain Diamond did not enlist in the Civil war. because he had ideas cm the subject of personal liberty that would not have worked at all had he been in the army. However, he be came a government agent connected with the transportation department, with headquarters la St. Louis. After the close cf the war he engaged in the real estate business, until in lgTS. when he drove overland from St I-ouis to San Francisco where he has made his home ever since. Speaking of Dancing.
