So I did wear it away Later, when my shoe salesman did confide to me that my selections would be from five to ten dollars a pair cheaper if I would al- low him to send them to me on the morrow, when a sale would be in progress, I did trip out feeling in- deed like a darling of the gods. But Lord! I do fear that I have not the true spirit of economy, for when I am saved ten dollars on a twenty-dollar purchase my reaction is that I can af- ford to spend thirty. To a luncheon at Amy Rice’s, where was much talk of the bad weather we have had on Sat- urdays and Sundays of late, but I did not join the lamentations forasmuch as, being neither a hiker nor an ath- lete, I do not mind having it rain whilst I am in the country, for then nobody can say, when we are nicely settled at bridge, Isn't it criminal of us to be wasting this beautiful day in playing cards?

And in spite of his goings-on at my perfidy, I would not promise to leave the making of it in the future to our Katie, being certain that the manu- factured variety of good brand is equal to any that could be stirred up in our kitchen. So he did make a frigid departure, as though I had spent the night in the tent of an enemy general, or something, and al- beit I knew he would repent him later in the day, I hoped it would not be to the extent of buying me a pres- ent, for not only am I unreceptive to gifts made in a spirit of atonement by individuals who think they may ob- tain absolution through parting with a little cash, but I have marked that such benevolences—money being the cheapest medium of any payment so- ever—usually have something intrin- sically undesirable, possibly through their having been purchased in haste, and injury is thereby added to insult. For instance, the last time Sam stopped too long at the club, he did come walking in with a spray of twelve orchids, which could be no good soever to a woman who was not giving a large dinner party or dead. But I doubt if he will offend again, being privy to my views on the sub- ject, so do I catch him in a peni- tential mood, it might be well to confess that I am again in financial difficulties and not indifferent to out- side assistance.
