Fashion, Church Pews, and Vanity

FASHIONABLE milliner: “You’ll have the flower on the left side of the bonnet, of course, madam?” Fashionable lady: “Well-er—no! The fact is, there’s a pillar on the left side of my pew in church, so that only the right side of my head is seen by the congregation. Of course I could change my pew.” Fashionable lady’s husband: “Ya-as. Or even the church, you know, if necessary.” Fashionable milliner considers the point.
