Diplomacy
The younger man had been com
plaining that he could not get his
wife to mend his clothes. “I ask
ed her to sew, a botton on this vest
last night and she hasn’t touched
it,” he said.
At this, the older man, assuming
the air of a patriarch, said, “Never
ask a woman to mend anything.
You haven’t been married long and
I think I can give you some service
able suggestions. When I want
a shirt mended, I take it to my
wife and flourish it around a bit
and say, ‘Where’s the rag-bag?’ ”
“What do you want with the rag
bag?” asks the wife. _ Her suspic
ions are aroused at once.
“I want to throw this shirt away.
It’s worn out’, I say, with a few more
flourishes.”
Let me see that shirt,’ my wife
says, then, ‘Now John, hand it to
me at once’.”
“Of course, I pass it over and she
examines it, saying, ‘Why it only
needs---------’; and then she mends
it!”
