"I Just want to make sure I have my list with me. It is so difficult to shop at this time of the year, and it is always difficult to And anything for one's—husband. Yes, I suppose many people did their shop ping earlier, but I didn't have him then. I mean— "Why, you sell neckties, don't you? llow fortunate! They are on my list.

(At the right place.) "Are husbands' collars here? Well, I am glad I have found the right place at last. Size? You clerks always ask so many ques tions. I never bought any before, be cause we've been married only— No, his neck isn't very large. Why, I can reach— But he lias real broad shoul ders. How nice you are to think of that! Yes, a box of assorted sizes would be just the thing. Some of them would be sure to be right, and I could cut the others off—that is, if they were not too small. You'd better put in nearly all large sizes. You see, 1 am starting out as economical as I can be. I think it must be so discour aging for a man to have a woman spend his money on frivolous tilings. Now, as I was coming down the street I saw a big sale of hats—men's hats. They had beeu in the window and were a little soiled, but I found such a nice clerk, and he said If I got some of that "1910" soap it would make them look like new. Mr. Harris is very particular about his clothes. Ho won't wear trousers unless they are pressed. So l bought three of those hats. Don't you think they will last him tt long time aud save money?

Neither of us has quite got over the effects of the last holiday season yet. "You see, we had been married Just long enough last Christmas to wear oat our first Installment of furniture and most of our wedding gifts. Things were looking a little shabby around the house, so we both agreed that in selecting our little remem brances for one another we ought to confine ourselves to something which would be mutually useful and attrac tive. Both of us had been secretly longing for a morris chair, one of those mission things with big leather cush ions that swallow you up In a delirium of comfort. Mrs. C. wanted it for the beauty of the library and her aft ernoon siestas, and I wanted it for evening recreation. "Months before the Christmas sea ion I began putting by a little sum weekly, with the morris chair In mind. Two weeks before the 25th I went iown to a dealer's to look at chairs. I lad been looking casually for weeks before, but It was not until 1 came upon this particular shop that I dis jovered what I wanted. It was a beauty In the darkest and finest of weathered oak, with all attachment* tod a pair of fat, greeny brown leath »r cushions that fairly felt like ply* 1 reams, laced with leather strappings ind tied to the woodwork with thongs. The minute I saw the chair I knew tt was for me, but the price was rather itaggering. The dealer wanted $96 for tt at first, and when I had got him down to (80 he acted as though he were giving the thing away. I thought it best to hold out a little, so I merely requested that he give mo a day's op tion 011 the chair and paid a small de posit for the privilege. "Meanwhile my wife had been sav ing every penny, cutting down on the grocery bill and keeping me on cheap meats with Christmas In view. It seems that ;he, too, had a morris chair on the brai . On the afternoon of the same day on which I discovered my prize she strolled into the same shon. The first sight of the chair was for her, and she offered to buy it on the spot. The dealer was inconsolable. Ho had sold the chair, he believed; at least he had given a gentleman an op -111!

"When my wife spelled out her cogno men for him he lilted his eyebrows in astonishment. That was exactly the name and those were the initials of the gentleman who had already spoken for the chair. My wife thought for a moment. Then she controlled her emo tions and merely remarked that such coincidences were quite common and Walked .nn without leaving her ad dress. "Next day I hied me to the dealer's quickly, prepared to leave my order for the chair. But the dealer did not £«iem half so Inclined to sell. A lady had been there, it seems, a lady of my own name, with the same initials—odd, was it not''—who was willing to give the full price for the article. Then it tvas my turn to think. Oil the wholt I decided ' did not want the chair after all. if Ellen wanted to buy it. I'd let her have that pleasure. "Christmas morning we both fussed about the house expectantly. I won dered where on earth Kllen was keep ing my morris chair. After breakfast I unloaded a pair of green portieres I had bought for her. As the wrap pings came off I saw her face fall Than she went over to a corner and produced an exactly similar bundle and unrolled another pair of green portieres for me. " •But,' I stammered.
