That made me franti- cally anxious about my clothes. “A last season’s hat, a skirt that was a quarter of an inch too Jlong or too short for the prevailing mode, sleeves that weren’t the very latest wrinkle, were tragedies to me, for it never even occurred to me that every human being I met was not taking note and commenting on the defects of my costume. “Now I realize that I am merely an infinistesimal atom among those also present in the great mass of hu- Jnanity,“and that I should have to deliberately get myself up like a scare- crow or a fashion plate to have any one even give me a second glance.
