What irritates me is to see my hus- band's clothes hanging over all the chairs.” “Isn’t it strange,” mused Mrs. Pen- ton, “that one can grow quite roman- tic over a woman's empty glove, her opera coat, or her dancing slippers, but did anybody ever grow poetic over a man's glove or his tuxedo or his pumps?”’ “Do you know,” spoke up the small | & matron, “that one of the most trying experiences of my life as a housekeep- er is putting away my husband's laun- “Well, really,” said Mrs. Troy, “if you never have anything to do more trying than that I think you are not in danger of an immediate break- down.” “But there’s something so hard and uncompromising about a laundered shirt. It seems to be the very symbol of a man’s commercial spirit. I never “Hanging Over All the Chairs.” take the pins out of a shirt of my husband's, but I feel like mussing it all up and making it amenable to rea- son.” “The only opportunity that a man has to betray his individuality in the oeoeoiednig matter of clothes is in his choice of | tles,” declared Mrs. Penton, “and see | They say a woman's | & what he wears! history might be written from an in- spection of the clothes in her closet, and I think a man’s biography might, with equal truth, be gathered from the drawer in which he keeps his tles.” “I endure his ties and his unoccu- |° pied shirts,” declared a young and |- and all his smoking apparatus drive |- me to the brink.

Think of g the smoke that lingers forever in the curtains, and the vile smelling cigar stub that is always present, and that is so distressing to the nerves of the nice and the neat.” “Well, really,” said Mrs. Penton, “it s a pity that there is not some one here to speak for the other side. Don't gewgaws and baubles sometimes an- noy our husbands? Surely, our infl- nite variety of possessions, our hair pins and hatpins, our vells and laces, our beads and buckles must have thelr effect upon nervous men.” “But we have nothinc that corre- sponds to the bad smelling cigar stubs,” protested the baby faced ma- | tron. | 5 | “We have our perfumes and our you know that to some men the odor of perfume 18 intolerable.
