Show IMAGINE HER FEELINGS. - A Detroit belle some time since received by express from an Eastern city a very handsome-looking umbrella, and she had it out the other day for the first time. Taking a Woodward-avenue car for a short ride, she reached the handle of the umbrella up to pull the bell-strap, when she desired to get off. As she pulled down the umbrella began to lengthen, and her feelings may be imagined when she found the umbrella in her hand and a sword cane arrangement about two feet long dangling to the strap above her head. This new idea in umbrella handles didn't seem to strike her favorably, and as the car halted she left both portions behind her, and seemed a good deal confused when a man called to her. "Can't never depend upon them things in a row. You'd better get a Derringer." - Detroit Free Press. |
