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: - ’ * i
