ALL DERBIES LOOK ALIKE.
That Was Why a Traveling Man Came
to Be Wearing a Becond-
Handed Hat.
A hasty man told this one to a Balti
more street hatter a few days ago, re-
lates the Sun of that city:
“Late one night while in Washing-
ton I dined in a cafe on Pennsylvania
| avenue and took away some one else's
| bat I did not discover the mistake
until 1 got ou the train bound for Bal-
| timore. It had the other fellow's in-
i {tials there fn bright gilt letters on the
inside and there was no excuse for the
| blunder,
“The next morning | began to real-
ize that the hat 41d not fit me as well
as It had seemed to, 80 [ dropped in a
hat store and bought a new ope. The
hatter asked me If | wanted my in-
itials put in the new hat, and I told
bim yes. He perforated them Into
the sweatband with a big chopping
machine. The next day at church |
| happened to glance in my hat The in-
1tials were the same as those in the
hat which 1 picked up In Washington.
{ot course, the hatter concluded that
| the initials In the old bat were my
| own.
| “Every time | visit a house where
| thers happens to be hats on the rack
| looking like mine | have to make this
| long-winded explanation They are
{ getting to doubt whether I ever have
ad but second-hand hats, especially
the women. Funny, ain't it? Women
| think all derbles are alike.”
| “Yeas; seems some men have trouble
{in distinguishing them.” sald the clerk.
