The Boss thought very quickly. In all
his married life his wife had never critl-
cised his hats before. She had, he knew
an unreasoning admiration for his taste in
dress, so far as it applied TO his personal
apparel. He made quick choice between
the new hat he had carefully selected and
his reputation with his wife for impeccable
style.

The Boss Of the Establishment
BY AMERE MAN.

The wife of the Boss of the Establish
ment was trying on her new hat before
the mirror. Yes, she had bought another,
the fifth since Easter Sunday and there
was no doubt from the pleasant CLEAN in
her grown eyes that the latest creation, or
leaning lower of yellow feathers, was for
the moment at least, a strong favorite with
it's owner.
AS she gazed admiringly into the looking
glass, the turning of a latch key pro-
claimed the immediate advent of the lord
and with farewell glance at the mirrored
vision she walked down the hall of their
apartment to meet him.
What, she wondered, made him look so
queer? He was not cross. Perhaps It was
a hair cut by a new barber! No, that was
not It, a quick inspection assured her. I'm
deniably there was something strange about
his appearance and when he had removed
his hat she saw what 1t was-nothing less
than the hat itself-a long low, rakish
panama which had been turned visor fash
ion over his manly brow. 1t was evidently
a purchase of the afternoon and the Boss
after the manner of his kind, was for the
moment so absorbed in appearing uncon-
scious of his own recent possession that
he did not notice the yellow structure on
his wife's head.
The Boss wife gazed at the Panama and
was divided between sorrow and relief
Frankly, as she told the Boss afterward
she did not think his hat becoming to him,
but she could now tell of her own bargain
without trepidation. For she thought, no
husband is brave enough to reproach his
wife with a new purchase IL he has ac-
quired anything for himself within the
ladys memory.
How do you like it," she asked coquet-
tshly, fitting the yellow feathers on one
side.
And then the Boss perceived the latest
millinery outrage and his soul grew sore
within him.
Its freakr he answered sourly.
"Oh-wh-y?" faltered the lady, her re-
sentiment being less instantaneous than
usual. What don't you like about it?"
Its all wrong! the Boss replied. It's

There are a great many receipts on the
market for writing the short story, but we
confidently claim that ours is the only
method.
First: Learn to read and write at sight.
Not too much time need be spent at this,
as all stories are rewritten In the magazine
offices and as long as you have the idea,
this is all that is really necessary. Do not
bother about spelling. All offices are sup
piled with dictionaries.
Second: Secure from the French classics,
or from a newspaper paragraph-it doesn't
matter which-a plot. Remove the plot to
some quiet place, turn it inside out, and
let it dry in the sun. When thoroughly
dry, hammer it thin enough to suit the
masses.
Please also to remember the following
points:
The Beginning.
All short stories should have beginning
Many of our best short story writers have
not followed this rule, but 1t is only be-
cause of their genius that they have sue
