<LIFE'S HAPPY DAYS>: (33) A SAINT'S DAY AND DAY OF BRACES: — Here my sweetheart... on the occasion of my Saint's day I've embroidered these braces!... — (The gentleman, aside.) Good God I've already got eleven pairs of them in my drawer... I won't get away with it this time for less than fifty crowns!... women really take too great an advantage of our wearing trousers, so as to make us wear braces!...
