Too Much Humidity

11V ,IAMi:s J. MONT.Uil IZ. We were going to upend the week end in the country with the Wells, arid there was Jut about time to make the train. As we were loading half a, dozen hand hugs, umbrellas. gulf clubs and other impedimenta, in th waiting taxicab, the general manager utter an exclamation of dismay. ! "My glasses," she cried. "I've left them. and. if I don't have them, I'll j ha e a splitting headache all the I time." "I'll get them." I volunteered, and ran Lack into the house. I knew the bureau drawer In which she generally kept them and gave it a gentle tug. It didn't budge. I tugged harder. The bureau rocked on its stubby legs. I yanked. The handle separated from the drawer which remained as stationary as the rock of Gibraltar. "Hurry up," called the general "managet, from below. "Well miss the train." he didn't hear what I muttered under my breath. It is better you should not hear it. too. Then a brilliant idea struck me. I would remove the drawer above and reach in for the glasses. I clutched both handles of the upper drawer. Then I braced my feet UKalnst the lens of the bureau. "No pussyfooting this time." I muttered to myself. "This one is going to open on he first try." Then I hurled my back, leg and arm muscles into a The next moment I terrific heave. was sitting on the Moor which seemed to have come up and struck me in a region where I had not received such a blow since woodshed days with my father. The upper drawer had not stuck at all. On the contrary, it had come freo from the bureau so precipitately that I found myself draped with lace collars, stockings and other Intimate feminine g-.arments of various llieate tints. Before 1 had had time to pick myself up, there was a startled shriek from the doorway. The general manager stood on the threshold. "I'm. not hurt." I said quickly, to reassure her. Hut anxiety in my behalf apparently had not caused her outcry. "All my fresh laundered things." she moaned, as regardless of me, she began to gather them up. But I was int-nt on ttinpr the glasses so we would not miss the train. I thrust my arm Into the lower drawer through tho spare where the on" which had caused my disaster had been. "What are you doing now." demanded the general manager, "mussing up all my other things?" "I'm getting the glasses," I said not too cheerfully. The general manager muttered i

something which might have been "Htupid!" or might have been something else, but, at any rate, ,lf was derogatory to my mental capacity. Then she darted to tho mantel-piece and grasped her glasses. "I called after you that they were on the mantel." he said, "but you were In such a hurry you wouldn't list?n." I was mute. Too Much Stickiness. finally we reached the station. At the ticket office, I took my place behind a stout lady who was having an .argument with the ticket clerk. "I had my ticket." she was saying. "I bought it three days ago and put it in the drawer of my desk, but, when I went to get it today, I couldn't open the drawer." "Hut madam." sadd the clerk. "I could not give you another ticket. But you can " "It's an outrage." fcald the stout lady. "My husband was in the army in France more than a year. He had a very important position there and was a K. P. which must be lust as good as a D. S. C, and, if he were here now instead of traveling for a very large firm that manufactures shoelaces, he would never allow me to be treated like this. I don't see why I should be obliged to pay for tickets twice." I glanced at the clock. It was a matter of seconds before train time. The station agent tried to speak again. The stout lady cut him short. "If a big corporation like a railroad can't hire men with some respect for a lady, what is the country coming to? My goodness! I suppose you doubt rny word. I'll brin the desk down here and you can " The ticket agent stuck his head through the window and fairly shouted : "But a new ticket and you can get cash for the other!" "Well, why didn't you tell me that before." cuttingly. "I didn't have a chance to say a word." sighed the ticket agent, but I was his only audience. The stout lady had paid and departed. We made the train, impedimenta and all. I was in a dripping perspiration. Just :.s I was getting comfortable, the general manager asked to have the window open. Running: True to I'orni. I siuezed the patent snaps, but th- window did not move. I pushed upward on It. It remained tight closed. To yank afttr yank, it rc mained ohdunte. Tie conductor c-me down tho aisle and assisted mt .

"Put it down, put it down." she wailed. "I can't stand the soot. There's a cinder in my eye already." By the time we reached our destination I had succeeded in closing the window. The Wells met us at the station and wo motored home. Just before supper. Wells asked me if I would have a highball. "Would a rose bug refuse an American Beauty?" I said. Wells went to the sideboard, which was one of the old-fashioned variety with a small round wooden knob for a handle. I knew what was coming before he started. The door stuck. He put his strength into it. The knob came off. I tried tugging with my fingers at the fancy woodwork around the panels. The total result was a broken finger nail. "Everything sticks this weather," said Wells. "Guess we're out of luck. Can't get at the hootch." I agreed inwardly that I was out of luck but Wells could have gotten into the sideboard with an axe. Maybe I am doing him an injustice but I could not help thinking that ho was in considerable Scotch. Maybe I am doing him an injustice. However, I felt he might have accentuated and prolonged the effort. That evening the general manager decided to send some picture post cards. I was lying in bed listening to the scratching of the pen anil longing for the end of the week end. "Oh dear!" exclaimed the general manager. "What's stuck now?" I asked. "Stuck!" she said indignantly. "Here's forty cents worth of stamps and not one of them will stick on a post card." (Copyright, 1920.)
