ostensibly desires to transact can be

STORIES OF lBsEN.
The Buttons He Sewed on and Me
Coed Wife's Comment.

Some amusing anecdotes of Tbsen
have been published by the Norwegian
writer, John Paulsen, who was on In,
innate terms with him for many
years. says the New York Sun. One
of his stories he prefaces with the re.
mark that, however much the dram
atist upheld the rights of women, he
by no means considered them superior
to men in any line-in fact, he consid,
cred them Inferior In many spheres In
which the world in general puts them
ahead. One OF his maxims was
mo woman could write a cookbook,
and no woman can sew button on
fast"
He lived up to the latter part Of his
dictum, When he detected a loose
button on any of his garments he re-
treated to his own den, locked himself
sin and with elaborate preparations
sewed the button on.
He took as much pains with 1t as he
would with the final fair copy of one
Of his plays. Then he used to brag
about the performance, saying that he
wouldn't put trust In a button sewed
on BY any woman. not even by his
wife.
His wife used to laugh with a quiet
ly ironical expression on these occa-
sions. She confded to Paulsen that
she secretly reserved all the buttons
that the poet had sewed-- them
good and tight, as only a woman can,
she said, explaining that he always
forgot to fasten the thread, and the
buttons would come OF In few days
if she did not look after them.

SO, Paulsen remarks, there was
hidden lie in the life Of the great apos-
tie Of frankness and truth. One day
In Munich Ibsen asked Paulsen In the
most concerned way whether he pol
ished his own shoes In the morning.
With feeling of indescribable guilt
Paulsen confessed that he didn't.
"But you ought to-" Ibsen urged.
"You will feel different man II you
do. No man should let another do for
him what he can do for himself.
"Begin with polishing your shoes and
you will soon come to keeping your
room in order, even to making your
own fires. In this way you will grad
ually develop into self reliant man,
independent of servants and all other
people"
Ibsen was extremely sensitive about
any one finding out the least hint re-
gardlng any incompleted work that he
had In hand. He never revealed a
plot, an Incident or scrap or dialogue
until the work was completed.
Once his wife picked from the floor
a scrap Of paper with the words, "the
doctor says upon 1t. She asked her
husband jestingly what the doctor did
say and who he was.
Ibsen went into paroxysm of rage.
He declared that he was not safe in
his own house; he was surrounded
with spies. All his ideas were ruined,
his plans thrown awry.
He was only pacified when his wife
showed him the paper and explained
where she had found 1t. The play was
