One Month. VOLUME 49. A WOMAN IN MAN'S CLOTHES. | RS. AUGUSTA SEIB, after nine years’ experience as a hotel and res- taurant waiter, has had to return to woman's clothes. She was over- come by the heat and the hospital doctor found the body of a woman, underneath a man’s gray suit, striped) shirt and collar and heavy men’s| shoes, | Mrs, Seib's husband was arrested as a bigamist shortly after he mar- ried her, She dropped his name and called herself Gus Seib, a trifling.change from Augusta to Augustus. This was after she had | worked in.a.restaurant as cook and found out that the waiters made more money, but that she could not become a man waiter without dressing and acting like one, She learned to smoke cigars, to stand up at the bar and take a drink and to swear, With this equipment of masculine vices Gus Seib had no difficulty in getting a waiter's job, As a waiter she was a success, She worked at the Savoy, the Astor, the Marlborough, and saved money. Then she opened a small restaurant of her own which No. 10—Mr. Magnanimous, the Forgiving Husband, Si hands with Mr, Magnanimous, the husband Who forsives his wife for his own shortcomings, the domestle diplomat who can come home at 4 in the morning and by the magic of his magnanimity turn his wife's righteous indisuation Into an attitude of meek apology. Of all the twenty types of undestrable husbands he ‘s perhaps the least odjectionable and the most amusing, . indeed, if his wife has a strongly developed sense of humor, I doubt if she finds him objectionable a all. She has always the j of woudering for what Mr, ‘Magnanimous is going to contrive to forgive her. It takes genius to transform an indignant wife into a murmurer of meek apologies, to turn the accusing arm of justice inward tlil she Te- sembles a penitent, striking her breast in confession, Yet that is pre elsely what Mr. Magnonimous does, | Perhaps excused hims Mrs, Magnanimous has waited up till 12 for her husband, who F get a glass of beer and utes, T 3 she has a few re vur hours ef watching the clock, of killed, have not sweetened her on after dinner to go out and promised to be back in fifteen marks to make when he comes in. fearing that he has been r over a temper.
