WHY SOME MEN ARE WEARY.

A good many hundreds and even thousands of long-suffering husbands can bear sorrowful testimony to the fact that this is the sort of catechism the wives of their bosoms subject them to every time they put on their hats to go out in the evening: — ‘Where are you going?’ “Oh. I'm going out for a few minutes.’ 'Where ?’ ‘Oh. nowhere in particular.’ 'What for?’ 'Oh. nothing.’ ‘Why do you go. then?’ ‘Well, I want to go. that's why.’ ‘Do you have to go?' ‘I don’t know that I do.’ ‘Why do you go. then?’ ‘ Because.’ ‘Because what?* "Well, simply because.’ ‘Going to be gone long?’ ‘How long?’ ‘I don’t know.’ ‘Anybody going with you?’ ‘No.’ ‘Well, it’s strange that yon can’t l>e content to stay at home a few minutes. Don’t be gone long, will you?' ‘No.’ •See that yon don’t. Thia is the reason so many marriages are a dead flat fizzle and failure.
