Husband Wants to Duplicate

with him to buy his fall hat, Mrs.
Ames not unnaturally supposed that
he wanted her help in deciding on

tried on hat after hat without so
much as looking at her, she felt ag-

ask me to go with you to buy that
hat?"

like my old one"
Mrs. Ames looked at her husband
in certain queer way.
"What's the matter ?" he asked.

after she had looked at him an in
slant, "only that isn't why I buy a
hat"
