skirt of black chiffon, which revealed silk hose and fancy garters. Dull gold satin high-heeled shoes, tiny lace apron and a large lace cap above my blonde curls completed the ensemble.
As I successfully carried out all my duties, our guests were unaware of my identity, and it was not until they were ready to go that my wife remarked to them," Meet hubby, the perfect maid,' п and pulled off my blonde curls to the amazement of them all.
They congratulated me upon the deception and were highly amused to think they had been deceived by a mere man. My experience proves the good ideas for fancy dress one can obtain from L. L. and how, with a little make-up and tuition, it is possible to carry out the impersonation of anyone.
With best wishes for the continued success of L. L.
Yours truly,
Jock
THE TWINS
Dear Editor:
Philip and Phyllis are twins, aged 19, and are exactly alike. Both are fair, good looking and very up-to-date. Blessed with pri- vate incomes, they share a flat, in fact they have shared everything and been together all their lives, apart from the inevitable sep- arations of school days. Both parents being dead, they have only each other to worry about.
It appears that about twelve months ago, they were talking of the fact that they were twins and lamenting, that being of different Bexes, they are not able to enjoy the confusion of identities and general opportunities for mischief which twins, both boys and girls can contrive; but of this came the idea that Phyllis should try her hand at being a boy to see how she looked. Once decided they went to considerable trouble. Suits, shirts, and in fact a complete out- fit, all identical, were purchased by both. Being already closely shingled, she made herself into an absolute replica of her brother.
After she had thoroughly accustomed herself to the new clothes and acquired a more masculine style of walk and general behavior, they set off in their two-seater for a well-known seaside resort, where they engaged rooms in a hotel as brothers, and proceeded to extract a considerable amount of fun from their new opportunities.
