Scene from The Lion and the Mouse"
Mr.. John Bronson.
After long hours of window shopping
and Just looking" a woman bought
hat at one of the fashionable shops
and paid an ultra-fa shionable price for
it. It was a plain street hat with
some bright colored quilts on it. The
saleswoman had insisted that it was
"a lovely little style too dear for
anything" ETC., until the purchaser
was convinced that there was the hat
that combined all the beauty and smart
of 11a q a
days later she went out for a drive
wearing her new chapeau. A little
dirty-faced urchin in the street got
glimpse of her as she passed and call
ed to one of his pals Pipe the InJun.
Thereafter that hat was in the discard.
The honest opinion of a little gutter
rat outweighed the advice of a fash
ion expert; for it confirmed a lurking
suspicion deep in her own mind, an0
besides the small boy was not trying
to make a sale.
