sUBTERFUGE NOT A SUCCESS
Crosby Doesn't Know Whether Wife
Detected Trick or Really Was
in Unselfish Mood.

Crosby had always been inclined TO
conservatism in household expenses,
especially in the matter of his wifes
dress bills, relates a writer III the
Sunday Magazine. His wife went so
far as to say that he was penurious.
She had been in need of a new boa
for a long time, and after she limited
that her happiness would never be
quite complete till she had one, he at
last consented to make the purchase.
He went into a store and picked out
two, one of which was a cheap imita-
ton affair, and the other a fine ex-
pensive one.
Taking them to his office before go
ing home, he changed the price
marks, the expensive tag on the cheap
boa and vice versa.
His wife examined them for a long
time very seriously indeed, and then
said. Nov, dear, the expensive boa
is a beauty, and it is really very good
of you to allow me my choice. Some
women would take 1t without word /;
but really I don't think we can az
ford the more costly one. and be-
sides, dear, I think the cheap one the
more stylish too. Why, eros, dear,
what's the matter? Are you ill?"
But dear old eros had made his
getaway into the night where he could
kick himself as hard as he felt he de-
served. But what he would like to
know, is this: Did his wife happen
on the more expensive boa by pure
accident. Or
