Speaking of hats" said a Brook
line gentleman the other day, II
went into a Boston barber shop one
Saturday afternoon last summer to
get a shave. When the knight Of the
razor had finished with me, I found
that some one had gone off with my
hat, but he had made a poor trade,
as the one he left was brand new, so
I did not mourn. All I could do was
to put on the fresh tile. which fitted
me quite we'll, and await develop

Monday afternoon the man who
had unintentionally walked off with
my properly on his head called upon
me. He was calm, but it was the
calm which follows a storm. The
storm took place at his hatter's. He
thought he had been imposed upon.
Said he: 4 bought a new hat Satur-
day afternoon, or thought I did, and
wore it home. But Sunday morning
when l sat down in a chair on the
piazza and laid my hat in another, I
thought it did not appear bright and
clean like one should that was just
from the store. An examination dis
closed the fact that it was not new,
and l jumped to the conclusion that
the halter had palmed off a second
hand article upon me. I was mad,
but / said nothing. I saved my
wind till the next day.
"'Then ! called at the hat store and
exploded. The dealer answered me
that he had supplied me a perfectly

that there had been no trick played

his place. i declared that had gone
