The wife apparently waa wholy devo

She bad a pbaetob, in which aha fre
quently drove on the Avenue. Some
times she took some of ber admirers to
drive with her, ber husband being too
wise to be jealous, aa he thought.
Finally tbe young officer appeared at
ber side, bat nothing waa thought of
it more than that aa a gallant be was
paying harmless devotion at the ahrine
of loveliness. Then a dark day came.
W ben the husband came home tbe
wife was not there, bnt ba dismissed
all feir, with the reflection that she
bad frequently stayed away from home
all day with some of ber friends.
Night came on and tbe wife and ber
child still remained away, loquirv

seen leaving tbe butt e, with tbe little
