That there are more waya than one of "killing a cat" Is a well known fact, bnt the newest of waya has been evolved from the fertile braln of a Qermantown woman who ls blessed with a atingy huaband. Thia huaband la generous enough ln one aenae of the word. Hla wife may have the best attlre the stores afTord charged to hla account, bnt she may handle lo money. Women, ln this mnn's opinion, know nothing of the value of a dollar. On leavlng for hla offlce ln the morning he klsses her goodby and thrusts a quarter-s worth of trolley tlckets Into her hand. Now milady goes shopplng. buys a few necesslties and a flfty dollar wrap for whlch she has no use wbatever.
