HE ALWAYS WORE IT.

There Are Good Natured Husbands, Skeptical Wives Notwithstanding. “WW ÜBBY,” said young Mrs. Worn bat brightly, “1 think I’ll giys away your old winter suits. You’ll never wear them again.” “Quite true, my dear. In fact, you might sell them, and thus earn a little pin money for yourself.” “No; 1 have tried that at various thnes with father’s old clothing. The prices you get from old clothes men are not worth considering. Fifty cents for a suit that cost forty dollars is ridiculous. Such a suit would mean much to The janitor or to one of the elevator boys. They run a great many errands for me, and 1 prefer to see them get the benefit.” “I think you are right, my love,” as sented Mr. Wombat Indulgently. “But, by the way”— “Yes?” “I wish you would save me one of those suits for a Ashing suit.” "Very well.” “One of those winter suits will riot be too heavy, as it gets quite cold in Maine.” “You are right. I’ll save out a good suit and brush it nicely." The suit was indeed nicely brushed and folded when Mr. Wombat came home that afternoon. He examined It and smiled. “Did you give away all tiie other suits, my dear?” he inquired. "Yes; but I saved the best for your fishing suit. It’s your old dress suit, dear. What’s the matter?” she added, as she noticed Mr. Wombat’s somewhat wry smile. “Isn’t it the thing for fishing?” “Just the thing for fishing,” declared Mr. Wombat, as he bore it away. “I always fish in a dress suit, pet.”— Judge.
