The Tassels on Her Boots; To the Editor of the Boston Globe: Sib—l take pen in hand to write a few lines to say that 1 think it about time for me to growl a little. Every one else has had a chance and improved it well, and now can afford to listen. What lam about to mention is on a delicate subject—so delicate that it is told cnly in whispers tha: there is such a thing. It is concerning ankles—those belonging to ladies, of course, gentlemen never havir g any. This is about ankles and the pretty boys who tend in our fashionable boot and shoe stores. It would seem at first as though one had nothing to do with the other, but they have a good deal in common, and the more the handsomer the customer. JKecently a young miss in my presence tried on ten pairs of boots without a flt, and between her desire for a perfect one and the prayer of the clerk for none at all, there was a prospect of her passing the afternoon that way. I could not blame the fellow for she was a beauty, but I was shocked at the abandon of the lady. Ido not now wonder why positions in such stores are desirable and very scarce, especially in these days when there is so much wickedness. It takes me a long time to get at what I intended to say, but I have reached it at last. It is very improper for girls to allow young men to fit their bocts; they should do it tnemselves. I notice no gentleman assists me; if he attempted it I would put on such a look as would make him wither. It makes me crawl to think of it. Belinda.
