HAD SCRUPLES AGAINST GAMBLING.

"I think it's simply awful," fi&id the first woman, "the way men remain away from home at night and risk their earnings at the game of bridge. My husband is a pwrecfc fiend about the game. One nigiab he had three friends in at our hous.e, and they played that horrid game until nearly half-past three- m the

morning." ' "My!" exclaimed the other woman, 'the one .with the bulky wair.t. "And does he lose much money?" "No-o," says thq first one, "ho hasn't really lost any money. In fact, he's been winning a little bit. But then that doesn't make it right.
