said the young woman with
the fluffy hair. “It is perfeeU
j ly funny the way a man acts just
1 because he i« 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?” pursued the fluffy young
I woman. “1 thought they were sup-
| posed to have discernment and s*?nse.
i Tom is always preaching about their
j 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.
j He said he couldn’t afford it, consid-
I ering my hat bills and his cigars and
j the notes coming due on the house we
j bought last year. I am sure I had it
i all perfectly clear in my mind, so I
| am positive I was not to blame.
“But did you ever notice what per-
j fectly fascinating young men they
put in charge of the exhibition cars

“I should say I have noticed!them,”

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 wfth a lot of
crazy machinery stuck on 1t and talk
like mad. So I simply had to do
something to kill time."
"Of course you did!" agreed the
others.
"So when at the first booth a- good
looking man who saw me studying a
touring car asked me if I was inter
ested I said I was. Then he was just
i as nice as could be. He told me
| everything about the car and made
me get in it and explained just ho»
I could run 1 myself and wanted
my address ts ynd me a catalogue,
j He said he'd be pleased to come out
some day with the car and show me
how It ran and give me a lesson. He
was so set on coming that T hated
■ to hurt his feelings, so.I did not re-
j fuse.
"It was jpst the same way at the
next place and ever after. Toni and
his friends were so busy over horrid
j old machinery that I was considera
bly left out. However, I made lots of
j friends among the agents.
“All of them wanted to bring out
their cars to demonstrate to me how
j superior they were and, as I had told
! one man he could come, it didn’t seem
a bit fair to the others to refuse any
of thorn, so I said I’d be delighted.
! It had occurred to me that 1 owed a
terrible lot of calls, and that it would
be such a nice way to get around
and pay them.
"I didn't think It necessary to men
tion the matter to Tom. He did re
mark that a huge lot of catalogries
was coming to our house and it was
a wonder where those fellows got peo
ple's names and, anyhow, thank good
ness, he didn’t have a machine' eat
ing its head off and making him poor.
Men are so selfish.
“The Zero automobile man came
out the very day after the show
closed and we had a beautiful ride.
I made six calls. However, I quite
changed my opinion of him, because
when I came out of the last place he
seemed actually cross and said things
| about waiting in cold weather. 1
don't see how he expects to sell cars
without showing a little consideration
for customers. I told him I didn’t
think I liked his car at all.
"Then there was the Hargo car man
and the Allegro man and the Fortis-
i simo man and the Solendiferous man,
[ and about six different electric com-
I panies, and a lot more whose names
II forget. When they came one at a
! time it was lovely.
I I did two teas one afternoon in the
Largo car. but the man lost his tem
per, and when I came from the second
tea the wretched creature had driven
j off and I had to go home*on the street
| car!
Very Queer.
"The queer thing was that every
one seemed so indignant when I re
fused to give an order for a car and
said things about my leading them
on. The worst of it was that Tom
came home ill with the grip one af
ternoon Just as seven different cars
arrived all at once to take me out!
He said lie thought I was giving a
funeral or a tea.
“When he understood-^my dears,
have you ever seen a man suffering
from bad temper and gTip .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 queer?”
"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 neatly while
you wait." 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.
“Wants ’em soled and “eeled.” piped
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: - ’
