The senator met the two late travel

three were waiting for an elevator
rapid fire of low toned question and

wife.
''You got Evan out of the way?"

Miss Anners was watching the ele-

sank to q whisper.
"He win be at the Weatherfords' 2"
she inquired eagerly
He is sure to be. / told him you

The small plotter nodded approval.
"Give Us half an hour TO dress and
have the car ready" she directed, and
then the senator put the two into the
elevator and turned away to finish his
cigar.

One Cure for Sarcasm.

Bunsen always was sarcastic.
One evening last week when he got
home his wife had a new hat to show
him. 1t was some hat. Anybody
could have seen that 1t was the final
phrase in female headgear.
But Bunsen started to make re-
marks. He said it looked as if it had
been trimmed by cross-eyed milliner
on an empty stomach. An he made
lot of other disparaging remarks.
Mrs Bunsen was almost in tears.
Bunsen had to go into the other room
to have a quiet laugh at her expense.
The next day he had forgotten all
about the hat
The day after that he was reminded
OF it. Mrs. Bensen handed him a bill
for retrimming that hat-$1S 81 it
came to.
Bunsen paid it without a murmur
and said the revised edition of the hat
was just exactly right. He is not
crfticizing hats any more.

and impatient calls of her comrades
