N, Phor Shopping. When a man wanders into the de)artment store, the rigid rules of varfare do not apply, writes Simeon Jtrunsky. in Harper's. A man in the | ush hour at the counter will bej vaited on out of his uirn .without j >rotest from the women shoppers.! -de is like a babe who has strayed in-1 ,o No .Man's Land between the liosile trenches. There may be a smile j >11 either side of the counter, but in lis helpless state he appeals to the1 nnate chivalry in woman. When a nan shops for himself he is satisfied with the first approximation to what le wants. When he is shopping for !iis wife he does not even know what lie wants. He reads something from a. list and asks for six yards of it, and only wants assurance that he is getting what he asks for. His ignorance of the distinction between poplin and crepe de cliene is a claim on the maternal instinct in the heart of the saleswoman. And he does not waste time. When a man buys half a dozen pairs of silk socks, he is shown a pair and assumes that the other five pairs out of the same box will be the same.

A man in a department store is like Sir Galahad. He brings out what is best in everybody. Saleswomen are patient with im. Floorwalkers give him explicit directions to the shoe department. Elevator boys call out the floors for him distinctly. The girl at the transfer desk guarantees delivery of the goods that same afternoon. The laws of war are not for him. He is not the enemy. He belongs to the Red Cross. On the Other Man's Time. Sandy, the plumber, was working on a town job with an apprentice. In the course of the forenoon the employer visited the job, and. failing to find Sandy anywhere about the premises, decided to wait his return. ' Where have you been?" he demanded. when Sandy put in an appearance. "Gettin' me hair cut," answered Sandy, quite cool. "And how dare you get your hair cut in my time?" "Well, dinna'it grow in your time?"?Liverpool Post.
