Love Me, Love My Wife.By GEORGE B. RUM

Gladys was profoundlyashamed of herself for all themean things she had thoughtabout her husband. Besides,she had to add a black markagainst her own awful conductfor having conspired withanother woman to expose himin his lovenest with his outsidewoman - his pot-of-sex heifer.

Chad was at home when hiswife arrived; livid as a cold,turkey gizzard, she asked in achoked up voice; "are you

home, honey-bunch?" She

hadn't called Chad "honey-bunch since Janet was a baby.

Chad threw his head backand laughed a deep throaty,boyish laughter; "are you run-ning a temperature?"

"Please, Chad, don't pokegame at me. I feel awfulenough. You know I can neverstand for you to tease me."

"You've had a run in withmissionary sisters. Was it SisterEmma Lou or Sister Elsie?"

Gladys ignored the jibe;"what are you trying to

cook?""I am experimenting.""You are messing up my

kitchen.""I am mixing our first

batch of fortune candy.""Fortune Candy!""Yep. I've decided to put

gradma Lizzie's candy recipeto work."

"You are ruining my cook-ware, Chad." There was a smileon her face, but her voicewas tear streaked."

"Don't fret, honey. Withthe money we earn fromGranny Lizzie's Peanut Candy,we can have a whole newkitchen."

"My lovely utensils --."

Gladys whimpered. Then she

dashed from the room. Shewasn't angry; she was going tomake ready to help him ruin

her pots; her genuine steelcookware that she was paying$26.50 per month for twoyears before she could call ither own. *iI "

Chad was a little down in

the mouth when Gladys re-

turned to the kitchen, but his

innate exuberance was doubledwhen he learned that theywere to wotfc together. Andwhile the sugar and glucose was

climbing to a boiling point of180 degrees, Chad and Gladysshelled peanuts. The boyishspirit of Chad's happy, con-tented mood loosened his ton-

gue and he laughed at his ownjokes. Some of these were real

dooseys and Gladys found her-

self laughing, too. Between

ribald jokes and boisterouslaughter, round, crinkledaluminum, two inch pans weregreased with margarine.

"Honey, if this candy pro-ject is a success, we shouldbe able to do some of the

things we have always wantedto do.

"Let's not count our chick-ens before they hatch," Gladys

offered as a brake to Chads

gushing enthusiasm. She hadno wish to discourage her hus-

band, however, she did not

wish to see him hurt by an

onslaught of disappointment."I am aware of the many

pitfalls, Mrs. Hodges - I must

set my goal higher than my

reach if I expect to obtainparexcellent results Chad'svoice had lost traces of mirthand sounded strange and drawnas each word was formed androlled off his tongue. Gladys'eyes quickened to tears andshe turned away from Chadand fumbled with three sizesof measuring spoons. "Howmuch nutmeg do you want forthe first batch, Chad?" '

"Use two heaping spoons ineach pot. I am adding a wee-bitmore than Grandma Lizzieused. As I recall, her candywas pale for the lack of enoughspice. Grandma's candy wasgood; but, a little more spicewould have enhanced theflavor."

"And she used raw pea-nuts?" Gladys quizzed cau-

tiously. Then she pasted thebowl of red-skinned peanuts toher husband. And while he

stirred the raw peanuts into the

boiling syrup, she was seized

with pangs of remorse; Next,she was seized with overwhelm-ing impatience - a great wishfor him to drop everythingand come to her.

"Chad," she called out soft-ly; "I am sure you are goingto do well with your candyventure. I will see to it thatGranny Lizzie's Peanut Candysells."

Chad turned the flamedown under the boiling potand continued stirring the mix-ture. "I am glady to hear yoi

say you will help me. We canmake a marvelous team."

Together they laddled the

peanuts into the greased pans."Chad," she called softly to

him onoe more, I think you'rea wonderful person. I loveyou."

Chad turned to her, his eyessearched her face for reassur-ance; he wasn't sure his earshad not deceived him. "t loveyou, Gladys."

"Thanks Chad. I have never

doubted your love. There aretimes when I feel the chill of acooling off - and I wonder

about us."Chad was deeply unstrung

by Gladys' sudden out burst,her open confession of her

love for him. "We should gettogether more often, Mrs.Hodges."

Gladys removed the idlingladle from between Chad'sfingers. I haven't scared you,have I?"

"No! No. I was just thinking."

"Don't study too long."Chad chuckled, "I'm sleepy

now.""I have been drowsy -- dis-

concerted all day -? but, sud-denly, I am wide awake andhappy to be alive. Chad, wehaven't had such a miserablelife together, have we?"

"I think we have done well ?

Give me some sugar." And be-fore Gladys knew what washappening, she was in his arms,her lips reaching out hungrilyfor his lips that were fragrantwith nutmeg. She clung to himwith all her might. The spicyfragrance of the candy, theblessed quietness, the slow

movements of Chad's body andthe crushing of their lips stirredup a wildness within her thatshe had forgotten. The lightswitch was nearby and beforeshe realized what she was do-ing, they were enshrouded in

darkness. "Chad, she ? whis

pered, "I love you."The words of Effie's favo-

rite song added fuel to his

great desire:Love me! Love me!Baby, love me all the timeLove me when I'm rightlove me when I'm wrongLove me when I'm weak

Love me when I'm strong -

Baby, love me all the time
