II don't call that large hat" said the

II don't know what you call a large hat
then" shifted the short man. II suppose his
woman couldn't afford both a hat and an
umbrella, SO she got hat that would do

The tall man chuckled; then he Whispered.
Keep it up; can tell she is listening
Perhaps l ought not to expect her to take

theater, can't your she said. well, I'll
tell you-ft is on my husbands account
The short looked as If he had touch
of apoplexy, and the tall man pretended not
to hear.
"I-I don't understand" faltered the short
man.
ooh, don't you. Well, as soon as the cur
tain goes down he will grab his hat and coat
and bounce out into the aisle, calling. Come
on, Amelia He puts on his coat as he goes,
even if he does knock down a few people in
doing it. I can't do that, and if had to stop
to put on my hat, too, he would reach home
before l could catch up to him! And that is
why l wear my hat at the theater!"

the curtain went up, noticing that she had
no programme, he reached over and handed

Farmers Would Make 1t a Very One
Sided Matter.

Special to the Globe.
WINNIPEG Man, Feb. s.-The Dominion
tariff commissioners are here just now elicit
ing the views of farmers and others on the
tariff question. A tariff for revenue only
seems to be the prevailing idea, but there
is a great fear that if the duty is taken off
will be ruined. Millers have also put in a
strong plea in favor of a retention of the
duty on flour and are strongly backed by
the farmers. A delegation Of farmers, espe-
cially invited to appear before the commission,
will tomorrow ask that agricultural imple-
ments, farm machinery and all tools used
on the farm, binder Irvine, fence wire, lum-
Der, nails, building material and coal oil be
placed on the free list, and that the duty
on salt, cotton prints and woolens be re-
duced materially.
