Returning from the club, he saw a man apparently leaving his home, and unaware that the convivial stranger had merely mistaken the house, indulged in suspicions, which were heightened when he found on the mantel a half-smoked cigar left by his bride's father that evening. Mrs. Smith tearfully denied his charges, and he became more than ever convinced of her falsity. The following night he resolved to watch. Leaving the house, he waited down the street and presently saw a man approaching the place, enter by way of a French window. Resolved to catch his erring wife red-handed, he rushed in, and found her alone. Her indignant denials he brushed aside, and started in to look for the man. Suddenly there came from a closet the sound of something falling. Opening the door, he covered with his pistol the man who was crouching there. The intruder was a gentleman burglar, who, hearing Mrs. Smith moving about, had concealed himself in the closet. Smith was convinced that he had found his wife's lover, but subsequent developments of a highly amusing character revealed the truth. Written by
