I Wish That All My Customers Were Women, the Manicurist Who Was "Different" Told Me
Betty Gerlin, manicurist, allowed my hand to rest in the fluid of a shallow receptacle as she arises to answer the telephone.
"Hello!"
"When would you like to come if Mr. Kinden?"
"At 107. Just n minutes. Yes, that will be all right. Thank you, Mr. Kinden."
Miles Carolin wrote the customer's name into her appointment book under the prorer hour, tossed the book upon a chair and returned to the table where I and my well-attended band were waiting. The music was great and I took on a rather felice thing so I ventured in remark.
"Some good looking young man coming to let you hold his hand?"
a逗趣性 smile came from the opposite side of the table. As my hand was lifted up and dried, lips moved as if in retaliation but there was no reply. I saw him in a position to realize that I had not made much of an impression. My anguished humor had not been received with open arms.
"I'm sorry if ."
Two searching blue eyes met melan-
“To scratch matter, only.” One of its
teeth was a sharp tooth. People
people certainly have foolish ideas of
the kind that one could receive hysteria.
My half hour spent with the manicurist had never before taken on quite so philosophical air. In the past I had found the buxon issues in her skin to be one of my greatest puzzles, splitted it and had found them even ready to give a full measure of looseness in return for the "the" that expected to receive. But here eventually, as she wore an emblem or trade, or whatever you call it who was "different."
Died as I was by one, the final failure to register in the first instance, an innate curiosity nevertheless carried on.

tamers?"
"Not so many as I could have."
"Couldn't you increase your business by working on the men as they are routing, in the hurdle's chain?"
Nearly all the girls do, you know?
A moment of silence followed while
the sophisticated little person is
standing from one of the nails. Then:
"
There was a momentary wrinkling of the brow and then a chuckle.
"Yeah. I could. But you see I'm not trying to increase my men's trade. I wish that all my customers were women."
"Men are so foolish. Nine out of ten expect a lot for the little money they spend here. First they expect us to delight in an hour of 'bidding' and then they ask for a date for the evening on top of your schedule. Then you will good, good, good they will look up some other above the next time. If we do, well—"
"Thet would seem to be a natural result of this type of work? Still many girls seem to stay with it."
So that was it. A girl with a future! I was wondering whether I should be intruded with any more of the secret when she audibly spoke.
"You are enrolled at the University, are you not."
"Well, I also am. I have just one more semester and then..." I waited patiently. "Then I shall not have to be shining your finger nails any
Yes, I guess many do. Evidently many of them enjoy that gets them going. But you are all in the minority. Anyway I'm waiting for the day when I see a movie.
The thought of the future brought little bits of red to bar checks. She brushed my nail vigorously with a brush of oil as she finishing a piece of work.
the ibu way out of the door I usually inquired of the porter what Miss Carlin was studying.
"Music. Violin to be exact. Dean Bortell says also the most promising violinist in school."
As I drew my glove over the lurping bits of red cover at my fingerprints, I had to scramble each one of them, as sojourn; as a daily reminder that shoes are not seen.
- And as the door of the shop closed behind me, my lines murmured, "No wonder!"

Indian Mummy Unearthed
Park Custedian Finds Skeleton in Sandstone Grave

Hollybrook, Ariz., Dec. 10- The hollowstone of a prehistoric Indian, almost entire, has been unrestored in the petrified forest national monument, in Colorado, and placed in the museum there. The find was made by a conservationist of the reservation, who states that the slightly underwater jaw places the Ip-
Evidently the aborigine was a prominent member of his tribe, judging from the carefully prepared stoneware and the stoneware shard and was in a good state of preservation when found. The skeleton had chared under and over it, even in its ribs and eyecockets. Its skull was very well preserved in a perfectly fine condition.
Other articles of archeological interest brought to light in uncovering the site include a stone hammer, two grinding wheels, also placed in the museum. These also were placed in the museum.
