Miss Fluffy Ruffles wasn't long in makin g
up her mind "
(See last week's paper, if you please, and
there 1 think you'll find
That Fluffy s uncle left io her a very large
estate
The sole proviso being that her aunt
should be her mate).
Well, as I said, she wasn't long in making
up her mind.
She'd scarcely known her maiden aunt,
but found her very kind;
A little queer in speech and dress and any-
thing but gay,
But fond of Fluffy and not bent on having
her own way.
The first check Fluffy rxuffles drew on
coming to her own
Was used to found a reading room for
working girls she'd known.
Her aunt was pleased and T raddles said
(He'd called to say 'Hullo'), -Your
heart's so large I. hardly dare to ask
for it, you know"
He blushed carnation pink and Fluffy said
"Now that's enough,"
And Traddles thought her treatment was,
to say the leas', "quite rough,"
But soon with Fluffy and her aunr in amic
able chat
He went to help the girl to choose a styl
ish Easter hat.
''Say. try this on," said Traddles. and to
please the awkward youth
She tried it on and, strange to bay, she al
most looked uncouth.
"Now try on this," the maiden aunt with
antique gestures said
And Fluffy, with good nature, put a bon
net on her head.
The milliner remarked "Eet's not your
style. Now here's ze sing
Zat's going to be ze proper mode of hat
zees coming spring." , " .
But Fluffy shook her head and said, "Please
make me one like this."
She donned an untrimmed hat and looked
quite sweet enougn to kiss.
"A bow, a feather something here "
The nvlliner said "Oui."
The result was a creation (as the picture
makes you see).
And very few on Easter morn from villa,
manse or flat
Created a sensation like the FlufFy Fvuffles
hat.
