Recently, in the same store, woman brought tn silk which a asked to have exchanged. On ox amination it was found that the silk was creased, and had evidently been lying folded for a long time Tiny holes had been worn into the creases. Only Had It Two Years. “You must have bought thts silk some time ago, said the manager ‘Not #0 ¥Yery long ago,” was the “It looks as though It had lain for two or three years,” was the next commont. “Well, it may have been two years ago that I bought it, but it wasn't more than that.” These are a few samples of the way the exchange privilege is abused in all dry goods and depart ment stores. A little talk with al most every manager along Second av. brought forth the general af- firmation that the privilege of ox changing goods ts taken advantage of by unreasonable or untruthful persons. mething Dropped on it.” Only a fow days ago a woman brought back a clock. She sald. “Something dropped on It and it broke. I thought maybe you'd ex change it, because I didn't have it very long.” Another woman brought back a pair of $5 silk hose. One of them was badly torn at the top. “I'd like to know why you sell such poor stuff,” she demanded, indignantly The torn stocking was carefully ex amined. own supporter?” waa asked “On the one side I did,” she ac knowledge “But that's no sign the stocking ought to tear.” She had used tape Instead of elastic and the consequent pul! on the thin silk bad wrought the damage. “They bring back everything,” j sald one manager. “There isn't a }thing that is bought or sold that |someone doesn't try to exchange. Much of tt ts legitin and every |store fs willing to give its patrons the benefit of exchanging things. ate Always Try to Please. “The problem of dealing persons who make unreasona | mands is a hard one please our customers, If }a mistake and refuse to exchan | goods when the customer is in th right, it harms us more than the }amount of the article ‘Even with the people who are working us, In many cases we make the exchange. Usually the woman who wants to exchange the thing has a circle of acquaintances. If we refuse her demand, she will ad vertise the fact, coloring the story to sult herself. That kind of knock ing does us moi harm than the loss of the goods.” Togs Up for Parties. Well known to all drygoods stores is the woman who gives a jparty, orders rugs, cushions, cur. tains, drapery and furniture—-all on approval—and after the party, gets la sudden call to leave town and has to send back the goods.

A young wom an bought several pairs of white satin slippers, In a few days they came back. They showed that they | had been worn. On being question-| ed she admitted that her brides: maids bad worn the slippers “but | only from the carriage to the altar.” She felt awfully offended because the store refused to take back the wedding accessories. Every store has some goods which it positively refuses to ex- change You're reasonably sure when you buy balr goods, combs, brushes and all toflet articles, or when you get a pair of blankets or wther bedding that it has not been “exchanged.” For hygtente pur. poses and for the protection of the| public these articles are never ox changed Try to Return Combs. A large sign usually warns pur. chasers at the combs and hain counter that no exchanges will be made, That does not deter some folks from making the Peach pudding ts very popular dish with the peach lover. Fill a pudding dish with ches whole and pour over them two cups of water. Cover closely and bake until peaches are tender; then drain juice from peaches and let it stand until cool, Add to the juice one pint sweet milk, four well-beaten oggs, a small cup flour with one teaspoonful baking pow der mixed in it; one cup one tablespoonful melted and a little salt. Beat well three or four minutes and pour over hes in dish, Bake until a rich brown and serve with cream Alinonds added to cornstarch pudding make a tasty variation of the everyday cornstarch pudding. Make a pint of soft cornstarch pud ding in the double botler, add sugar and a little salt and a half cup of chopped almonds; cool and pour into glasses; serve very cold. °A very little almond flavoring may be added if desired Chutney i# an Indian relish whieh | can be made in one day.

It ia not alone the stores that minister to the medium class trade, but those that cater to the high class have the same difficulties, with all the embellishment of good grammar, elegant diction, rustling | silks and nodding plumes. | Don't Know What They Want. | “The trouble is that most women don't know what they want,” said a manager in one of the finest stores. “We are not #0 much troubled with having things returned that have been worn little of it.
