spoon with which she was stirring ?

"Some r. hat?"vThe .-Jachelor sat up
with a sta?t and then fell back again
among the /ariegated sofa pillows
helplessly.
"Some new wheels to make it run
umootbly." explained the Widow, "and
uo'me safety-valves for letting off
jiteam, and a few up-to-date appliances
ifqr comfort and convenience. Every
thing else has been mitigated and. im
proved. The steam engine wouldn't
know its own grandfather and the
street cars go at twice the speed''
"?o do the divorce cases," put in
the Bachelor.
"find instead of gongs we have
electric bells"
"And instead of love-matches, we
nave marriages of convenience''??
\And you only have to put up your
hand and the conductor lets you o.'f"?
"And you only have to put up the
money and the lawyer"
"Nonsense!" protested the Widow;
with a vehement little stir. "Marriage
hasn't been improved or mitigate.- a
bit. It runs right along In the same
old tracks, with tho same old jogg!
wobbly, uncomfortable bumrs. in the
same old dust and squalls, to the rarr-p
old destination; and if you are normal
and conscientious you can't get off
until you reach the last station and
are worn to a frazzle!"
"It's the 'tie that binds,' sighed the
Bachelor, resignedly. "The latest thing
In Gordian knots, and"
? "It's full of knots," broke in the
widow, setting down the plates with a
little clatter. " 'Shall hols' end 'ought
nots* and?and 'what no:s!' And
they're all fastened so tight and hard
that most people get raveled out try
ing to loosen them." /
"Oh, well," rejoined the Bachelor,
cheerfully, as he lifted a sticky hit of
rabbit on his fork, "nicst people man
age to have them CUT?in the divorcp
court,'*
"Not at all!" retorted the Widow,
promptly. "Divorce is a luxury cl
the rich, hut. it's the last resort o? the
majority. Just think how few divorced
people you know compared to the u:ar
ried ones v.-ho are going through lifo
fumbling hopelessly with the knots
and getting snarled up tighter and
tighter. I know dozers and dozens of
women who ?.re hanging on to matri
mony by a mere thread and living in
dire terror for fear the thread will
break"
"And I know dozens and do-.ens of
men." sixhed the Bachelor, "who have
nothing in common with their wives
but Ike dishes and the parlor furni
ture"
"And dozens and dozens of wives,"
put in the Widow, "who listen all
for a husbsnd's key In the lock,
ind then wake up In the morning
?july too thankful If he has come home
AT ALL"
"And dozens of dozens of husbands
-v'ho have to take a bracer before they
:an get up the courage to go home at
alght?and yet they keep on going
aome," finished the Bachelor.
"Yes," agreed the Widow, sadly. "It
isn't the LAW that binds us together;
it's some ingredient that the Lord
puts Into matrimony that gets people
all mixed up?like the cheese and the
ale in a rabbit, so that they can't dis
integrate themselves from one anoth
er."
"I guess it's the love of the dishes!''
exclaimed the Bachelor, with sudden
Inspiration.
"The?what?" The Widow dropped
her fork.
"The domestic ingredient." exclaim
ed the Bachetor; "the 'homing In
istinct' in us all?the tender feeling
for darned sock9 and cups with hand
les and a street and number to call
our own. A dog will st~v with the
master who beats him daily In' pre
ference to roaming the streets?and
?ve're all something like dog*.*'
"Or cats," corrected the WTldow.
'That's it; It's the feeling of belong
ing .hat gets hold of us and ties the
knot mound our hearts. We all want
to 'belong.' We hate being detached.
'To you?" cried the Bachelor, de
lightedly. "Then why go on?suffer

"What?"
"Why not mitigate our pain by go

The Widow rose with a weary air
and put out her hand.
MUST you go, Mr. Travers?" she
Inqrired sweetly.
"Oh, yes," acquiesced the Bachelor,
with a chuckle, "and the beauty of it
Is?I CAN!"
"What?"
"And I don't ever have to come
back!'*
"Of?of course not," agreed the
Widow, with a little frown of wonder.
"Becaupe in the tie that binds us"?
"There isn't any, Mr. Travers," de
clared the widow, hastily.
"In the tie of friendship." persisted
the Bachelor as he reached the door
and stepped wearily outside, "there

with contrition, as he noted the de

made no response, and she disap
peared Into the next room. Not fully
did he realize the turn affairs had
taken, but sat In a maze, listening to
tier footsteps as she moved to and
frc. hurriedly packing his trunk. Of
tier own free will she had offered to
'et him go. Could he, as a man. do
so? The Jasper Lane did not touch
that part of the world more than once
a year. For a year he would not see

once seen heaven. How she loved

devotion to him lessened, even for a

her?with the boy! The thought of
the latter made him wince the more.
But she had said tbat Paul was too
young to miss him. And they wouid
be wr!l provided for. Besides, he
could write to Laura once a day. aud
then perhaps?
Again she stood by his side. "Every

quietly "You have but very little

She laid her hand on his arm. Trem

Paul was sitting up In his crib, dig

awake. "You goin' away on boat, faz

to be a man and go away on boat
too."
"You. see, dear," Laura whispered.
"He does not understand." The man
stopped and placed the tiny arms
around his neck. "Good-by, little
son," he said, huskily. "Take care
of muzzer, won't you?" The boy
nodded cheerfully. hlB eyes brighten
ing at the thought of the responsibil

Laura smiled bravely at her son
and laid her band on his bright hair.
In another moment her husband held
her In bis arms. "Good-by, my own

i "Good-by, John." He turned hastily
from her, and picking up hia trunk, a
small affair, which he swung with
easy grace upon hia broad shoulder,
he left the room.
At the outside threshold he stood
? for a moment and looked back. Laura
was kneeling beside Paul's crib, the
boy's arnip tight about her neck, hli
red lips pressed to hr-r cheek.
Slowly the man opened the door
and his action caused the rumble of
the ocean to be heard with greater
force than ever. It. affected him as a
