I think my sister-in-law saw my thought in my face, for she looked up at me with eyes suddenly grown cynical. "When you have lived as long as I have, my dear." she said slow ly, and I mentally braced myself to hear something disagreeable I have always found that the expression generally prefaces something I would rather' not hear "you will learn that tenderness and devoted attention are no especial criterion of a man's love. Of course, they often accompany it, but if a man is not a cad or a beast, and has ceased to love his wife he feels such a re morse, such a desire to make up to her for the thing he can no longer give her, to save her from the know ledge of her loss, that he is far more devoted than the man whose heart is wholly in his wife's keeping, and is, therefore, careless about proving the fact." I felt as if I were a small girl again and had just been compelled to swallow a nauseous dose of medi cine, x could not deny that there was a certain bitter plausibility about her philosophy, but my whole be ing protested against it. "I think you are wr6ng," I said hotly. "Why! If I believed that i should be miserable all the time i never would know whether Her Morbid Cry. ( I stopped short for two reasons, I was unwilling to discuss Dicky with his sister, and the grim little thought came to me that even if I accepted her philsophy it would rather reassure me than otherwise accepted her philosophy it would rather reassure me than otherwise as to Dicky's love for me. His tenderness and devoted attention were not so uniformly conspicuous as to warrant me in suspecting they were assumed. There was a hard note in the little laugh she gave, but I subtly knew that the hardness was not directed toward me, but toward herself. "You will not need to worry for a number of years yet, not if you keep the looks you possess, she re torted. "But years from now, when you look in your mirror and realize that as far as your beauty is con cened you are a corpse that ought to be buried, then you will know what suffering means, especially if you are compelled to contrast your appearance against the fresh, glow ing beauty of a girl, who, through uncontrollable circumstances, is thrown into daily intimate contact with your husband." I did something then which I never thought to do to my august sister-in-law. I bent over her, and taking her by her shoulders shook her slightly. "If I didn't realize that you are really suffering over this, Harriet," I said severely, "I should shake you until your teeth chattered, and laugh myself into hysterics while I was doing it. Qf all the ridiculous rot I ever heard that is the limit. Oh, you aren't the first one I've heard say it, but I never heard a woman of your brains and looks say it before!

Doug. 5251 my dear, that you are one of the most stunning women I have ever seen, and that your husband looks, quite an old man beside you?" His "Other Self." I did not give her a chance to an swer or to protest, but rushed on to say the things I have been compelled to leave unmuttered many other times when I have heard similar senti frrents expressed by women "in the forties." "There are fools, of course, among middle-aged men, just as there are congenital idiots among women. But I do believe, Harriet, that this idea, so carefully fostered by neurotic persons, that a middle aged wife is in constant danger of having her husband's affections wan der from her, is a horrible fallacy. Husbands and wives who have gone down the years shoulder to shoulder as comrades, aren't apt to give any thing more than a passing admiring glance at youth or beauty. I don't imagine that Edwin is worrying about his gray hair and the old lines behind his ears, and his - sagging cheek muscles suffering because he thinks you have been attracted by seme handsome young interne in his hospital do you?" "How absurdly ridiculous 1" Her voice was disdainful, but I caught a lessening of tension in it neverthe less. No more ridiculous, honestly. Harriet, than your. idea. Why, you are your husband's other self! He is . perfectly lost without you. I'll water he never had a disloyal thought toward you." Not a conscious one, I II admit, she said, "but I was not blind, Mar garet, and, Katherine is such an adorable girl, I don't see how he could help " "Of course he was attracted by her." There was no use my denying this fact, which Katherine herself had told me, "but did it ever occur to you, Harriet, that his feeling for her was simply an -outburst of thwarted fatherhood, a longing for the daughter he has never had, who might have been just such a girl? Think it over." I kissed her and went swiftly out of the room. (Continued Tomorrow.)
