MRS. BOWSER," began Mr.
Bowser after he had smoked
away for half an hour
after dinner, "I am a man
lat gives everybody a square deal."
"Yes?" she answered as she looked
p from her book.
"If I carry my point in an argument

"Yes?"
"A man is not a man that won't do

"Some months ago I was telling you

to look for Dr. Cook's reeds."
"Yes, I remember."
"I came home terribly in earnest
>out the trip. I saw a way to make
e name of Bowser famous and to
it at least $500 per night for leeWg.
I had as good as ordered tweVe
drs of extra woolen socks and soJb

"So you did."

'It is such things that must be fig- j

? said. "You haven't got anything j

"So have you, Mr. Bowser, when |

things. You haven't finished with j
your paper yet. Don't let ine inter- j
rapt you." 1
Mrs. Bowser's idea was not to let j
him own up to anything more, but he j
laughed, relighted his cigar and said:
Continues His Confessions.
"And I was going into the dairy
business with 200 cows to start on.

"Oh. but you mustn't say that. You
saw how it was after a bit."
"And I was going to learn to be an
aviator?ha. ha! And I was going to
pay $3,000 for a flying machine and
get a contract to annihilate the enemy
at so much per head. Oh, I've been
a chump, Mrs. Bowser?c-h-u-m-p,
chump!"
"Shan't I telephone the Greens to
come in for a game of cards?" she
asked as she rose up.
"Not tonight. And I invented a burglar
alarm and wanted to put $3,000
in it?ha. ha! Come to test it. it
wouldn't alarm a cat. Mrs. Bowser, I

"But I said yon needn't," she re- I
plied. "If the Greens were to come ' |l

"Never mind the Greens. Tie's got
a boil on his leg. and that's all he'd ^
want to talk about. And I invented a |f

There was no longer any danger of ^

through some chance word. He found |p
the druggist taking a bit of rest be- p

later, and Mrs. Dowser queried: ify
