THE PSYCHOLOGICAL MOMENT.

"Pa, what's a psychological mo
ment?"
1--WE will suppose that your mother
wanted a new $50 hat, and that I was
downtown and had just met a beauti-
full young lady who found it exceed
ingly difficult to keep herself from
falling in love with me. We will sup
pose also that I greatly admired this
young lady, and that we had paused in
front of a candy store and said a lot
Of complimentary things to each other
and that l had finally invited her in
side and bought her a big box of candy
and that we had looked at each other
and done a lot of signing, and that
then the girl had sadly said good-by
and started out and that l had fol-
lowed her. We will suppose that, hav-
ing reached the street, l was about to
start after the young lady when I
heard your mothers voice. Remem-
Der this is all a mere superstition, but
we will say that I paused with a feel
ing of guilty fear and, turning, saw
your mother only a few feet away and
hurrying toward me. john we will
suppose she said, wait a moment. I
wish to speak to you You may easily
imagine what my feelings would be
in the circumstances. But we will
suppose that 1 paused, expecting her
to tell me that she had been following
me for hours and that she would place
the case in the hands of her lawyer at
once-say, you understand, that this is
merely a hypothetical case-that it is
merely a fictitious case constructed
for the purpose of illustration, don't
you? Well, while I vas turning over
in my mind such thoughts we will sup
pose that your mother came up to me
and said: John, IL really don't look
well in anything but that $50 hat.
Don't you think you could afford to
get it for me?" That would be a psy-
Geological moment. She would get the
hat"
