His wife believed him to be almost an angel. However, she was much mistaken in her trust, for when her Henery was out of her sight he was "some gay bird." A. pretty stenographer worked for Henery, and he bestowed much of his affection upon her. On the other hand, John's home life was a continual turmoil, due to the jealousy of his wife. Being of striking appearance his wife continually suspected him although he never flirted and attended strictly to business. However, John was unfortunate and fate was unkind to him; for instance, one day a lady coming out of a restaurant accidentally dropped her glove as he was passing. Being a gentleman, he picked up the glove, handing it to the lady, just as a friend of his wife's came along, saw him addressing the owner of the glove, and of course, told John's wife. At the office one day John's stenographer was examining a new perfume atomizer and some of the perfume accidentally got upon John's coat as he was passing. At home that evening his wife smelled the perfume, and there was more trouble and explanation. To cap the climax, John's largest customer came to the city and naturally it was John's duty to entertain him. Unfortunately for John the customer brought his wife with him to the restaurant and still more unfortunate was the fact that the customer was called from the table for a telephone message, thus leaving John and the customer's wife alone at the table near the window, where they were again seen by the busybody friend of John's wife. Hearing all the things about her husband increased her jealousy to such an extent that John's wife decided to investigate for herself. So one day when John phoned that business would detain him and for her not to save dinner for him, it was natural that she would invite Henery's wife and her busybody friend to join her in her investigations. You can imagine their surprise when the three women entered the restaurant where John supposedly was with some chicken, they found Henery with his stenographer and friends having a gay old time. Naturally Henery's wife fainted from the sudden shock and there was a commotion during which Henery was able to escape. Upon her arrival home John's wife found him dozing at the fireside and being ashamed of her overwrought jealousy she begged his forgiveness, promising never to suspect him again. It would have been a sad night for Henery had he dared to face his wife. He did look into the bedroom window but the missus was laying for him with implements of war and so deciding that "discretion was the better part of valor," our Henery failed to enter.
