A Humorous Story, Complete
Truth
</T 1 sf p ms a curious perversity of
J fate," said the young marrle l
woman, "that I should have a
husband who really has a high regard
| f or ( lothe.-, w hen so many women
complain that they can not enlist
their husbands’ attention or cheek
books In that noble cause.
"When Pharjes said yesterday morn-
ing. My dear, you will attend to or
dering your spring hats before long,
will you not?’ I knew it was useless
to put off the matter any longer. Si
I promised him that I would get
something that very day. I laid aside
that wonderful new play of Strind-
| berg’s that I was going to take ov-r
to the park and read, and the potr
j dear wrote me a check and went ,o
the office looking quite relieved in his
! mind.
"After he had gone, I stopped to
finish only one act of Strindberg and
then I started. On the way downtown
■I figured out Just what kind of hat 1
should get.
"It was not so hard to plan one ir.
my mind, but it was a different mat
ter to find the hat that 1 had planned.
I went to six shops and tried on about
SO hals before I began to feel dis
couraged and decided that there must
; be something wrong with my looks
She Looked Wild.
‘ In the sixth shop I met Mrs. Pel-
ton. who looked wild-eyed and bellig
erent. and had a curious little straw
concoction set upon the top of her
hair, with round red objects falling
i off the back of it like a neck of apples
descending: a stairway.
‘When she saw me, she clutched me
menacingly by the arm, as if I were
responsible for the present social sys
| tern,, for she said: 'Isn’t it an outrage
1 that human intelligence has to be ex-
pended upon pursuits like this! They
talk about the senseless fashions of
women! Do they realize tl^t men
make these styles and then for ■<*
them upon us? Do you know the
^meaning of *his whole insane subject
of fashion? It’s a device perpetrated
by the merchants and manufacturers
to get rid of the unconsumed surplus.
Now. when our sex has the ballot. I
hope ’
“I calmed her down, as much as I
could by telling her that 1 felt that
way about it. However, I was so re
lieved to find that perhaps the trouole
was not with my looks, after all, that
1 walked over to a counter where sev
eral untrimmed hats were piled up n
a bin and a lot of women were clutch
ing at them and bought the first one
from the top of the heao. It was light
and soft and felt comfortable and did
not make me look entirely like a ca-
toon when I was trying it on.
“So great was my relief at ending
my search that I took home the hat
with quite a feeling of satisfaction.
1 reasoned that it would be a simple
matter to trim it myself, for all l
should have to do was to leave off
most of the things that the trimmed
hats had on.
“That was yesterday morning. The
rest of the day and until midnight
last night I devoted to attempts to
; trim the hat. Fortunately Charles 4
stayed downtown to dinner, so I could
work without interruption. I trimmed
nnd untrimmed eight times and noth
ing that 1 could devise looked right,
so I gave it up in despair and went to
bed.
“This morning as soon as Charles
had gone I got the odious hat out
from under the bed, where I had hid
den it. and by the broad light of early
day discovered what was the- matter
with it. The trouble was in the color,
which I had failed to observe clpsely.
It was not a normal straw color nor a
yellow nor a brown, but a sickly,
bilious, yellowish green, which made
everything that it came into contact
with look seasick, including me.
“It being now* too late to return the
hat. which had begun to show signs
of wear. 1 carried it down to a dve
shop and found that they could color
it for me, but would have to change
the shape, which was the least objec
tionable thing about it. and that it
would take four weeks.
More Trouble.
“I then went to a department stora
and bought a bottle of dye. which the
saleswoman said any child could ap
ply with a small brush. In attempting
to open the bottle after I had carried
it home my knife slipped, the tin cap
flew off and half the contents spilled
over the kitchen table, a stack of
dishes and the kitchen sink, to all of
which it immediately adhered like
enamel. .
“Fortunately, it was Delia’s after
noon out. but as I knew that she
would be very cross when she saw, 1
the dye I spent two hours and a hall
and a can of scouring powder in re
moving it from the kitchen landscape
before I could return my attention fa
the hat. The remaining contents of
the bottle I then applied to the hat,
except tlie part that splattered on my
self. I then relined it. trimmed it fol
the ninth time, tried it on and foun<|
that I could stand to look at the fin*
ished product in the glass without
feeling ill. I felt that I had earned ,
that hat.
“When Charles came home I had i|
stuck on my head for him to look a]
and was just beginning the second
act of Strindberg. He was very much
pleased, and said: ‘That looks very
nice, my dear. Now. you see how
easy it is to get becoming hats, so you
must go down and order two or thred
more, and then you will be supplied
for the summer. - '

J ONES and Long had not met f«t
years. Once—that is in the days
when both had been striving fot
fame in their different professions-^
they had been really good chums, and
many a talk had they enjoyed to
gether by the fireside as to the littk
places they would take in the coun
try “when their ships came home.”
The dream of Jones has been real
iz^d. and now. although a portly o!n
fellow, it was with a sense of rea.
pleasure that he prepared for a vL».
from his former friend.
“Ah. it’s solendid seeing you dowr
here. Long!” he said cordially, by wa>
of greeting. “Quite like old time?--
what? Anri the missus. I know, k
longing to shake you by the hand
But first—yes. you must come alonfi
and have a look at my greenhouse
You simply must!”
And Long went.
“Well, Jones.” he said, “you’ve go 1
a mighty pretty place down here: hut
to my mind, it's just a bit bare.”
“Oh!' replied Jones, cheerfully
“that’s because the trees are
young! Next time you come—whsi
they’ll be so big that you won’t recog*
nize them!”
