Each Thought It Was One Until They Be-
 gan to Compare Notes.
 "I went to my husbands office yester- day afternoon to get some money" said the little woman in the gray gown as she settled back in her chair to tell her "dear- est friend" the latest family joke. 1T was down town shopping and had spent every cent had.''
 "Of oourse," said the dearest friend. "That's the way I always do too. Did he grumble about itp''
 "No. He wasn't at his office. That's where the joke comes in.''
 "Joke" exclaimed tho dearest friend. "I should have thought you would have been mad enough toto almost swear"
 "I was at first,' admitted the little woman in gray, "but when they told me he had gone homo early got over being mad, because I knew he'd gone home to have quiet little chat with me before din- her, and that he'd he as mad as hornet when he found I wasn't there. It made me laugh to think of him standing around the house swearing because I wasn't home after he'd left the office early to go to me. I didn't hurry either. I took my time, because, you know, 1t does a man good to have these little disappointments once in aw hile. If he always found his wife at home, he wouldn't half appreciate it."
 "Was he very mad?" asked the friend, with interest.
 "No. That's the funny part of 1t, {"
 "I don't see what there is funny about that"
 "Why, the servant told him I'd gone down town, intending to go to his office, and he said it made him laugh to think how mad I'd be when 1 found he had gone home. So he had just sat there and chuc- kled all the time until came home."
 "It was all right then, suppose?" said the dearest friend.
 "No, indeed it wasn't"
 "But you were both in good humorp'
 "No, we weren't. That's the very fun niest part of the whole story. When we each found that the other thought it was a good joke, we were both so mad that we didn't speak for whole evening.'1 aA A
