THE WANDERER'S RETURN.
Home again at last, darling. John, dearest,, you don't look a day older. . . I must. Centuries can't roll over a man's head without leaving traces. It was ages and ages, wasn't it? And, Oh, John, how lonesome I have been! You poor little wifey ! If ever I have to go away again you shall go with me. But your'e more beautiful than ever, sweet one, what have you been doing with yourself all the time I was away ? Thinking of you darling, and longing and longing for you to \ come-home. If that is the secret of beauty, I cfoght to have grown a perfect Adonis. And youVe s^e you rePb; cognised me straighfdiv; without fU thinking at least a mihii^p^ > Of" course, you old dear. Do you
suppose I could ever forget you ? Good gracious, it doesn't seem possible that I've really been away only since the day before yesterday, does it, sweetheart ? Not a bit more, husband mine, than that we have actually been married fi whole month to-morrow.
