w- that lavtybrs advice sillah jixzs stobv i havent set out to tell everything that made me think of getting a divorce from john for wiser folks than meu tell yon theres some things best covered op and never spoken of it all began when the children died that sad snmmer when the throe little things were carried out of oar home in one week they left anch an awful darkness and loneliness behind them that perhaps it was no wonder john turned away from it for men like to shake off things instead of brooding over them as we women do if i bad tried to brighten np a bit it might have been different but the gloom in my heart was so heavy that 1 had no eyes for anything until it had gone on a long long time and 1 couldnt help noticing how dif ferent from his old self john was getting to be perhaps if 1 d been more patient and forbearing i might have won him back but it made me feel so hard and bitter to think he conld be unkind to me that i didnt try for when the little ones died be had said that tho loss must only bring as nearer to each other and now ah me it was such a shook to find that john could do wrong and keep doing wrong that i only felt a fierce anger towards him and showed it 8o things get worse and worse till i settled down to a dreary feeling that i didnt care for anything the children being gone and johd who hod loved me so aj most worse than gone though that seems a dreadful thing to say and at last i took notiou im go back to fathers i thoaght id see bow john would fake it if he saw i could leave him i had never yon see given np tbe hope that some time he might come back to himself and to me and that we might be happy together again i thought hed soon be coming after me with promises to do better so one day i packed my trunk and left everything in order and went home unbeknowt to john i looked for him within a week but the week went by and then another and another i was deter- mined i would stand it out as long as he would i used to hear about him some timesfolks said be waa working tbe farm sams aa usual but had shut up the house and gone to boarding at a neighbors i knew that wouldnt suit john long for be was always a great home body and i watch ed and watched for him to come and ask me togo back bnt he never came and the longer he waited the more i was bound never to go back of myself aitex i bad been gone a long long time one day one of my brothers name storming home telling how hed heard say john was going to get a divorce from me for deser tion father and tbe boys were all as mad as they could be to think of his daimj it after treating me so alt driven to leave him i 4ngryaonngh myself too and they tiwtome tillthff bronght me to think toe cy thingfor me to do waa to get the divorce myself wed i was so worn out and disheart ened that i didnt care what i did so i irant to see a iawyor so wa a nicer looking man thra- a gramany lawyers arehad a look utfjilsmtotigbt and traet srfyhbmsiog ifcwraitobmoney in a book that bad writing in it and then says he any relation to john prioe f so i told him i was jobn prices wife and what id come for he looked very serious then i told him all about it any children v he aaya of course i couldnt help crying when i told him how cd lost the little ones and how happy wfed always been till then and how happy we might have beeneven yet if id done a little more to help john over it and he had not been led away and then he got out of me how my folks had talked me over about the divorce and he looked more sorious than ever and said a good deal like this i suppose in the eye of the law yon are entitled to a divorce but tbe law is hot al ways right it is a dreadful thing tosenar- ate two people who ought to live together and make each other happy now says he mrs price are you sure you have no love your husband left he looked straight in my fact solemn and i broke right down and cried harder tban ever and could flnd it iu my heart to say right up and down that i hadnt well says he youd better take a littletime to think of it and call again i said i would and i went homo bat they wouldnt give me any peace there all keeping on that it wouldnt be keeping np the dignity of the family and showing a right spirit if i didnt get the divorce so i went into the village again in a few days bat just as i crossed the street to go to the lawyers office who should i see bnt john i looking for all the world just as hed looked years ago before trouble ever came between us i knew in one look hat he was himself again for he held his head np lixe a man and his eye was clear and bright i i took a few steps forward so dazed i didnt knew what i was doing aah the sad years between seemed to go ont like a flash and i only saw john my husband then i heard screaming and shouting and a great noise and rush near me and some thing dashed at me and everything seemed to go far away when opened my eyes again john was with me id been knocked down and tun over and john had taken me into a bouse and hadnt left me for a week i was so happy lying there and nim taking care of me just like in old times that i couldnt let myself think of anyibiag and when the doctor said i conld be taken home i wondered what john meant to do but didnt say one word and neither of ns bad said a word when he carried me into my own room and the bmell of apple blossoms came in the win dow jost as it had two years before but as i was unwrapping a parcel i caught sight of my own name in print on a piece of newspaper i looked again for id never seen my name printed before excepting when john and i were married and when the little ones died there waa some lawyers talk and johns name and my name and something about divorce and i screamed put for john he looked and looked at it and his face was black enough john john says i what does it mean im blessed if i can make head or tail of their lawyers lingo he says oh john i says i are we divorced he looked at the paper again sarah jane saya he 1 doot know he started straight out to the stable and saddled a horse and the next minute i saw him galloping towards tbe village with all his might he got back to me quicker tban ever hed made the trip before and put both arms tight about me no sarah jane says he we aint divorced and unless youre a long ways more set on it than i think you are we never shall be 1- a tbey aay a fan lis bis tfcat almost jobs 8 storj i never would a believed sarah janed go off aud leave me so i was considerable taken aback when she did though i oouldnt but help owning to myself shed had good cause enough to do it but all the same i was as mad as a hornet and said fcr my self id never ask her to come back if she stayed away a thousand years i felt sure though shed come back of herself before long the house waa so for lorn and lonesome that time and again i was within one of jost hitohhv tip and go- in to fetch her bat i always hardened to her again and wouldnt i had a lot of tbinkin those dayb though and one day it came over me strong what a fool a man is to let himself go to ruin when he can help himself as well as not ive heard folks say they cant help it but thats all non sense yon know h a man wanasio quilt tbe wsj for him to do it is jost to quit no perin off nor f oolprabout it well sarah jane stayed and stayed till at last it came serosa me shed been gone better than two years and i felt so tbunderin mad to think the wouldnt give in that bein sick and tired of urin so thinks i to myself tolget a ditraoz- desertion and go waal s jjbd tcaee a lawyer abqnt it neaaj wkenihanledin 8iooeeeaoetoi after hed hes ail had totaayi saya i fij x thtok youd betterjoeidiringnaei sarah jane il x s pjnjiiaswealoifj aaipr xefttite v ftgg0 quite get to that he said id have time to think of it before a decree could be got and id better not to too hasty but soon after i heard that sarah janes folks were talkin about gettin a divorce and i was determined they shouldnt get ahead of me so i went to the village again and was just goin up to see the lawyer when i heard a howdoyedo in the street there waa a runaway things went flying helter- skelter and a woman was hurt i pushed into the crowd and saw her lyin there with blood on ber hair i was always powerful strong and i picked her up and carried i her into a house close by and a doctor came to see what the damage was and when they turned ber face up i gavo a jump for if youll believe me twas sarah jane i she hadnt come back to me nor i hadnt gone for her but here we were come together for all she looked so pale and so pitiful that i forgot in one minute all about bein mad with her i carried her to a room they fixed for her and it seemed the most na tural thing in life to be tendin on her and before ebe knew anything else she just settled right down to it and wouldnt let a soul bnt me do for her so i had the old house opened and brightened up and i took her home and it was good to both of us to be there we had a big scare along of that di vorce business though her folks had had it published how she waa spplyin for one and we saw it in a newspaper and for the life of us neither of us oould make ont whether we were divorced or not but it was all right and its been all right ever since only that wasnt quite the end of it a little while after there came a letter to me and twas a bill a lawyers bill yes sir that chap had the face to send me a bill for twentyfive dollars i was dumbfounded and the first day i had anything to haul in i made straight for that mans office lookahere now says i what have you ever done for me that you should send me this bill t i thought hed a looked foolish bathe didnt he laughed why my dear air says he that bill is for advice advice 1 says l what advice do you mean f i advised you very strongly to act like a sensible man and go and make np things with your wife and i understand you have done it yon dont think i can afford to stay sn this office to give you or other folks advice for nothing do you now look here says i do yon mean yon were gettin off all that preacher talk on a feller for a fee couldnt i v gone back to sarah jane without any of your tellin he stopped laughin and looked so solemn i was afraid he was goin to get off another advice bill on me yes my man sayabe but whether youd a done it or not s another question if i had poshed on your work as you wish ed a gulf would have been fixed between you and your wife which would probably never have been filled now im going to leave it to you says he whether my ad- vice wasnt the best advice you ever had in your life and worth at least twentyfive dollars he took it so coolt couldnt but stare at him and then it all seemed so everlast ingly ridicnloos this thing of a lawyer try- in to keep families jined together and chargin a good fee for it instead of split- tin em apart and the way me and sarah jane had been makin such simpletons of ourselves i laughed myself i laughed lota hardern he had i laughed till i had to stamp about and ait down and unbutton my ooat before i could answer him a word then i says 11 well i declare it was and i paid him that twentyfive dollars without a gradgin thonght and when id got out of his office i laughed again i laughed hardern ever 4ill the lawyers and folks that had offices about there opened tbeir doors and began talking about tbe police then i ran back and opened the door again and says i say bring all your folks and come oat to oar place and eat strawberries and oream will you how to xsa a bb law is this a vast to keep f
