THE OTHER MAN Dearest Girl: ' Jove, what a letter that was of yours! I never realized before what a perfect crowd of women you are, all In one. A full-blown Mormon has nothing on Die for variety.
As for a Turkthe four, wives the law allows, him make a poor showing
compared, with my girl. For harem wives are fill alike, - while my one small wife is four . women in one friend, playmate, fellow-worker, and sweetheart! " I lug your letters around with me and read them over on trains and in offices, getting something new from each rereading.. . What you said about Lucy Benton romindg. me I ran across your prosperous playfellow Roy Nicolls on the steps of our house last night I declare that chap fairly oozes money. His darn car, shining with silverplate and fat with fur robes', stood panting at the curb while we made believe we were chums and chatted of this and that on the doorstep. -1 knew the fortune-steeped old buzzard had come to take you driving. He was . decent enough to invite me when 1 told him you were away. And I'd have gone along if I'd known -anythingto talk to him about. The only interest we have in common is you. But for 'all Nicoll's likeableness and all my magnanimity, I swear I could not quite pull off an evening as his guest with you the topic of our mutual talk. So we exchanged tobacco, and

shook hands and said goodby Then I came upstairs, switched on the lights all over the flat to make things seem less dull, fed the cat played your-favorites on the foot-power piano, read the evening papers (and your letter for the th time) and sat and . thought. f Finally, like the famous custodian of Blarney Castle, I didn't even "set an' think." 1 "jes" set.,:.; - v'Vr- . . v " ;. - . He's a queer chap, that Roy Nicbll. I can't decide whether he's Don Juan or Sir Galahad. Sometimes he seems the most Platonic old chap on earth. Then again I'm confoundedly sure he is Interested in you with an unholy interest. ; I get all chiirned up over it and want to go and shoot him. . Then I think of What you wrote about Lucy Benton how we all have our Lucy Bentons. People who have had their share in our past lives; .the people we've liked or learned something from or been sorry for or found stimulating or helpful in one. way or another. And I'm ashamed of my smallness. ' .' " - ? Here am I with a miracle wife. A Wife who doesn't cling about, my knees demanding to be taken care of. to be fed with honey and robed with silk, to be adored, amused, protected and set upon a pedestal. Here am I with, a wife who says that .a liftle house and four little walls, a kitchen, a clothes closet and a purse . kept
filled by somebody else are not enough to satisfy her. A wife who insists on -earning what she spends. And yet withal, a wife who is everything the ideal wife should be. Here I am with all this, and yet DARING to question for an Instant a thing that adds to her pleasure or her happiness. Yes, I am ashamed, Janet darling girl, for I am sure Roy Nicoll with his wealth and his motors and his breezy personality DOES add to your store of livening things.: Why should he not? In my angry moments I try to belittle him. I call him an ordinary fellow, a conventional minded , rich man who spills money like an overfull wine bottle But in my saner times I know he is an attractive, intelligent, gentlemanly chap who admires and respects you and is in a position to offer entertainment. It is your very ability to keep such friendships without turning them Into messy love affairs that makes me proud of you. I, too, then, am willing to share my mate reasonably with the world. ; I will not allow marriage to be a cage. The door is open, dear. Liberty and sunshine are without. Take them and be happy. Only love me more and differently than you do anyone else. By the way, Nicoll asked me where you were. I told him. , Good night little partner; rest well and dream, maybe, of YOUR WALT, WHO LOVES YOU(To be continued.)
Preparedness in business is simply a question of being twenty-four ahead of your compentitor.
