THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE WEDNESDAY. NOVEMBER 30, 1898. : CUYING A STRAW HAT. r. ntr la Sure to Be Trouble Ahead . for the Ma Wlo Wife Ac companies Him. - The average man never thinks of re placing his Easter headgear until the first hot day makes it feel- like a cast iron helmet.- Then he either rushes into a hat store, and comes cut again a poorer man in a new straw hat or is Weak enough to tell his wife that he is contemplating such a purchase. This last is folly, for though a wom an will let her husband buy his winter hats unaided he always thinks that he needs her judgment in selecting a , straw. She offers to go with him and when he makes a feeble demurrer and says that he doesn't want to take her lime she folds her lips together with the air of a martyr and says that she will "make the time," although she ought to be making her pique skirt. There isa preliminary dispute over the shop, for she knows of n department store where you can buy beautiful straw hats for 08 cents, end he has a man's natural hatred for the places where everything is sold. . lie gains his point, and they enter a furnishing store. There is a sudden dropping away of clerks, for the hat salesman dreads a woman as a burnt child dreads the fire. Finally, a clerk is cornered behind au embankment of bicycle caps. The hus band asks for a medium-priced hat, while his spouse pokes a collection, of Panamas contemptuously. The clerk burrows in a mine of hats under the counter and brings to the snrface an inoffensive lid of fine straw. He sets it on the bead of the husband, who tries to look unconscious, and doesn't know what to do with his hands. The clerk says: "It is very neat," and the wife says that it is en- " tirely too small for a man with a round face. Another hat is brought up from the submarine mine, and this falls over the victim's ears. The wife sniffs and picks up a hat at nndom, which she claps on her better half's head. He looks like a comic valentine, and tells her to let the hat salesman select the headgear. The salesman goes to another coun ter and brings an armful of hats, which he tries on the husband. "I wouldn't be seen on the street with you if you take that hat," she says, and he turns slowly before a glass to get the view from all points. '"I have just one more line," the clerk says, and picks up the first hat that was tried on. He hands it to the wife, with a -wink at the husband. She examines it approvingly. "Why didn't you show this to us first?" she asks, . sternly. "Do take it, and let us' get away from here," she concludes to her husband. The clerk claps it on the husband's head, takes his money and address in order to forward the discarded hat, and they go out. When they reach the sidewalk the wife sighs: "Wasn't it fortunate that I went with you? That man would have palmed off that first hat on you. . It made you perfect guy, too. Those salespeople have simply no consciences!" Chicago Chronicle. MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS. About half a million pairs of boots are stored every year at the army clothing factory in England.
