a joke on me I shall have to tell you
about the shock I had last night. When
went upstairs to dress after dinner,
I was somewhat taken back to find Miss
Brown fussing around in my room. She
wasn't at all Hurried and walked out
past me as cool and businesslike as
usual. I hustled into ny clothes and
going to look Nellie up found a sheet
Of paper pinned up over her desk that
opened my eyes to a thing or two. It
was the programme that she had writ
ten out for Miss Brown in which I fig
ured as an important item and she as
my wife's understudy. Here it is:

It may be late. While he is looking
over his mail go to his room, lay out
his dress suit and see that the pearl
stud is in his dress shirt. Select fresh
violets for his button hole, but you need
not pin them in He may do that him

Did she do it all?" asked a man
standing n the aisle
she did. She carried her Instructions
out to the letter. When We came in she
had something hot for me and after I
was dressed and came downstairs in
something Of a temper because Nellie
had not got home from a federation

bundle Of illustrated papers and before
knew it had forgotten Nellie and the
