gifted with ears instead Of windows
thsy would hear many strange and in
tresting things.
Two women were riding homeward
on North Clark street car on Sat
urday afternoon, and this much of
their conversation would certainly
have been worth the attention of the
auricular organs Of any wall:
this afternoon, and finished
early"
You're so lucky in being able to
get your Christmas presents so far
ahead of time. When l get into a
store there are so many things that
just seem to appeal to me to buy them
that it takes me days and days, and
I'm not satisfied then. You know the
fun of Christmas presents is not in
the giving of them, but the buying
of them
do you really believe that?" said
the other woman, earnestly.
Il just do"
"Then I'll confess to you'll dc, too.
Oh, it has seemed such dismal thing
to take $40 or 500 Or $50 into the stores
and to realize that when it was spent
you must go away coveting such lot
Of ether things. I have had my heart
broken in that way half dozen times,
but this year am triumphant. There
wasn't thing that | wanted that |
did not buy. And an quite salts
fed"
why" the younger woman said,
in awe, ''ycu must have spent hum
dred3 OF dollars
Eyes, but l didn't pay it. Now, if
l tell you how to obtain that great
feeling Of content which comes OF
buying whatever you wish, you WON
tell, will you?"
No; but I'll go and do it myself"
IT'S the transfers" the wise woman
confided.
Then she went on:
You know in all those big stores
that have dozens Of departments they
note down on large transfer sheet
the things you have bought in one de-
paTtment and send you into another
with their blessing to buy more. You
dom pay until you have gone through
all the departments, and then you go
to a cashier and settle for the whole
let. That, Of course, is the basis OF
having the articles sent. Well, start
ed in with a chair for SIS"
'Yes?"
and a leather lounge and a china
cabinet for mother. | took my trans
fer check into the upholstery and rug
department and bought my sister a
new rug and three sets Of portieres.
With the transfer to serve as a pass
port, l went frcm department to de-
partment. l purchased something nice
for everybody I am interested in.
Bisque statuettes, eight or ten sets Of
books, clocks, cigars-oh, everything!
1t was such keen delight to bargain
for them
But the awful time Of paying for
them
That's the secret. I didn't pay for
them. When there was absolutely
nothing left for me to buy, l took my
transfer sheet, which looked like a
roll Of wall paper with hieroglyphics
on it, and walked out. I didn't present
it at all
But you won't get your goods said
the other, obviously.
"Oh, no; of course no. l didn't ex-
pect to. But think Of the joy OF buy
ing them. And | bought everything
I wanted. Everything! 1 didn't re-
strict myself at all. 1t was the first
time in this life
And she looked gloriously content
