A W0MAN'S LOGIC.
Il Helped Her Out When the Customs
Officials Bothered Her.

On one of the recently arriving
transatlantic steamers was young
woman whose extreme economy had
not permitted any lavish expenditure
abroad. But she had repeatedly re-
ferred with commendable pride to the
material for two silk dresses she had
purchased at bargain which she was
bringing home for her mother and sis
ter. Even the suggestion of one SYM
pathetic listener that she would have
to pay duty produced merely a tenn
porary restraint.
Finally when the liner approached
New York and the custom house Of
tcer received the somewhat plain wo-
man at the cabin table her fellow pas
sengers were curious. Being asked the
usual questions about dutiable proper
ty, she replied stoutly and defiantly
that she had the material for two silk
dresses.
Are they for yourself?" the inspector
wanted to know.
No. they are not" she declared. 81
am bringing them home for presents"
Then since they are not for your
own use | shall be compelled to charge
you duty" and he figured out for her
the required amount.
Taking the pencil from his hand, she
figured for n moment and then said:
well. l declare! That has made those
dresses cost me so much that simply
can't afford to give them away now.
I'm just going to keep them for my
self; that's what III do"-New York
