U'T'OM was terribly annoyed,"
| Said the young woman with
the fluffy hair, "It Is perfect
ly funny the way a man acts Juat
because he le your husband—did you
ever notice It?”
“It is indeed,” said the others in
chorus.
"How was I to know that sensible
business men would take me so se
riously V pursued the fluffy young
woman. "I thought they were sup
posed to have discernment and sense
Tom is always preaching about their
superiority In that respect. Tom ex
plained to me very carefully before
we went to the automobile show last
month that we couldn’t buy a car
He said he couldn’t afford It, consid
ering my hat bills and his cigars and
the notes coming due on the house we
bought last year. I am sure I had It
all perfectly clear in my mind, so I
am positive I was not to blame
"But did you ever notice what per
fectly fascinating young men they
put in charge of the exhibition cars
at an automobile show? ”
“I should say I have noticed them,”
said the brunette girl.
A Very Nice Man.
"And, anyhow, Tom had no busl-
: ness to run across two college friends
the minute we got inside the show
and pay so much attention to them
that he couldn’t pay any attention to
me! Those three would cluster to
gether over a chassis with a lot of
crasy machinery stuck on It and talk
| like mad. So I simply had to do
something to kill time.”
“Of course you did!*’ agreed the
i others.
"So when at the first booth a good
looking mart who saw me studying a
touring car asked me If I w«s Inter
ested I said I was. Then he was Just
as nice as could be. He told me
everything about the car and made
! me get in it and explained Just hove
j I could run t‘ myself and wanted
my address I* . gid me a catalogue.

when he understood—my dears,
have you ever seen a man suffering
from bad temper and grip simulta
neously?
"I explained to him most carefully
that it wasn’t my fault at all, but he
roared that he was ashamed to look
a man in the face from that time on
for fear he was one of the automobile
agents I had shamefully deceived
yes, that’s what he called it—and that
he’d like to know what women had in
place of consciences, anyway. What
do you think of that? Aren’t men
utterly quees?*
“They surely are!" the other young
married woman agreed. “When you
hadn't done one single thing, either "
Where the Shoes Pinched.
“Boots and shoes repaired neatlv whil*.
you wait. 1 So said a notice in the win
flow A small boy entered the shop and
dumped a pair of patent leathers on
the counter.
“Please, fahver wants ’em repaired"
he ventured timidly.
“What’s he want done to them , “ in
quired the tradesman. 1
“Wants 'em soled and ' eeled." t>lned
the youngster; ’also stretched”
Stretched as well—eh" And where
do they pinch him?”
"They don't pinch him." replied the
ingenuous son; *‘he pinched them!”
