AT THE BARGAIN COUNTER.
An Incident which Illustrates One Oi
the Things That Marks the
Woman shopper.

January sales in the State street
stores are sometimes the occasion OF
small bargain-counter riots. AS soon
as one woman sees another looking at a
four-yard remnant she decides imme-
diately that she wants that particular
piece herself. Two women were pricing
a piece of percale in one of the big es-
adjustments, says Chicago exchange
Up came two other women, evidently
much perturbed.

she's going 10 take it," walled one. 81

back"
but you surely didn't think I'd 60
off and leave those nice suede gloves at
40 cents?" retorted the other, in self
defense, at the same time gazing hun
grily at the little piece of percale. The
shopper who was lingering the goods
turned to the two women and said. po-
litely:

It," and walked away.
- Left in possession of the field the
would-be purchaser cast a careless
glance at the remnant and turned
sweetly to the clerk. 81 think, after
all. don't care for this percale," she
said
And the clerk was mean enough TO
