The artist was attracted to the eavea liy the hope of finding vantage polnta from which to sketch Grassc and Can- nes and Autibes and the Alps and the c'listle un Suint-Uouorut.

One Is warned to be on his ;:u!trd against long tentacles reaching out swiftly and silently. One Is told tliat slipping might mean more than a (lucking. Owners of villas on the) rocks make liaht (jf octopus stories, and, as local ooomers are trying to make Theoule a summer resort, it Is explained that the octopl never come near the beach. Kven it they did. ihey would not be dangerous there. How- could they get a hold on the sand with some tentacles while otliers were grabbing you? I have never wanted to see anything (|uite 80 badly as I wanted to .see un octopus at Theoule. Octopus hunting surpasses gathering four-leaf clovers and fishing as an occupation In which hope eternal play.s I he principal role. I gradually abandoned other pursuits and sat smoking on rocks by the liaif- day. I learned over again painfully the boyhood way of drinking from n brook and lay face downward 011 island stones. With the eiiiliiisiiistic help of my children, I made a duuiuiy stuff- ed with pine cone.s and \»t him float iit the end of a rope. Never a tek tacle, let alone octopus, aniestreil. I had to rest content wlili Victor Hugo's stirring picture in "The Toilers of the Sea." A plotting wife cncour.Tged the oc- topus hunts by laliing part in them and expressing froquenlly her belief In the imminent apiieurance of the oc- topl. She declared that sooner or later my reward would come. She threw off the ma.sk on th(» 1st of May, when she thouglit it was lime to re- turn to work. .She announced to tlie artist and me that tlie oetopi had ffoni! over to the African coa.st to kee|i cool tintll next winter, and tliiit we had better all go to Paris to do the same.

Many a business man f;oes home in the cveuitig, i-einoves bi.s coat, sinks Into un easy tliuir nnd lircathes 11 deep Nigh of relief. When tisked wliy his lirow js ftirrowcd lie responds that bo has hiid a teirllile day. Perhaps he had letters to dictate. He had lo con- fer with his iissocinles and lielKid to talk to siiint! customers. He spent an hour or more at lunch nnd he (luit about five o'clock. lie lind n busy day and when home is renihed he feels that ho is fiilitled lo sonie rest and quiet. Such a man rarely tlilnks of his wi fi- ns a inamiger, remarks tlic Indianniiolls New.s. Ho does tuit recall tliut she may have been up tieforo lilni. Ilo for- gets that she planned the breakfast â€" anil, in tunny Instances, cooked It as well. After breakfast is tiiiislied there are dishes to he washed nnd the kitch- en must be put to rights. I'eihaps that Is a general cleaning day for the whole house; and there always is dust to chase as well as dirt to s'weeji out or take up in the newfuiigled cleaner. The beds have to lie made nnd a score of other household dntltrs need alien- tloti. If there are children they de- inand tlils, that and the othei-. If there Is n little baby in llie hou>e it must be batlied and put to sleep for its morn- ing nap. Theti there la a mam menl (o get, as w»>ll ns various other llttio fliluRs constantly coiuinj; n;-. The aft- ernoon will lie spent in ninny ways. .X great liiany women spend It in work. 1'hey order groceries nnd they order meal. They buy llie lionseliold sup piles, nnd the good liotisokeeiier keeps an aceiirali! account of her exiieiidl tures. 'i'ownrd evening she has lo plan the 'llniier and when th(> cblldreu come home sli(» iiiiist look after them. Later. she has the job of putting them to bed. Sleiiiiwhile she has had tliiii\ very like- ly, to lead n iinisa>'.lne, to knit a little fill- some soldier or to play the piuno. She may have found time to go shoii plug or lo make a few calls. .She niiikes no partlculiir coinplHint about the routine she Ims gone through because ahe does It every day. Tlinuannds of women stiow more ex- ecullvu ability in running Iheir own homes than their husbands show In running ihoir business, Tel there are many liusbniidM who ilo not give their wives credit for having iiiiy busiinvMs Krji«e Some of them who say that women belong In the home never real- l7.e whni a hoinv Is. due of these <\- eeiitlve ftpurta would be ut a h^ss In a great many cases If he iindcrttHik the Job of ruiining bis own house for n p<>rl(><t iif ?.-t hours.
