You remember the man whose wife
left the electric fan running when she
went away for three weeks vacation
trip? That man is the model husband
for whom the world has long been
searching. This fond couple went for
a lake trip. Just before they left, the
wife bought hat, neat little bon
net, for which she paid the modest
sum of 500. The first day they were
on the lake, gentle breeze blew
across the deck and swept the smart
hatsfrom the wife's head. The cha peau
lies somewhere in Lake Michigan. As
soon as the couple landed, the husband
bought a new hat for his wife. with
never reproach, never a warning to
pin it on good and tight, and not so
much look that the separation
from his cash caused single pang.
