Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Simple Souls "Please, sir, is this your hat?" "My hat," said the man, instinctively raising his hand, "is on my head. No, it isn´t," he added, withdrawing his hand. "Now, isn´t that queer?" He took the hat from the girl´s hand, and, holding it rather vaguely at his side, regarded her steadily. With an equally steady gaze she inspected him. What he saw was a girl in the early twenties, dark and tall, and wearing too few clothes. This was not due to fashion, but to poverty. Incidentally, she was beautiful, but he was the sort of man who would not realize that until it was pointed out to him. She would have been more beautiful still after a good dinner. What she saw was a man between thirty and forty, who was not in the least handsome. On the other hand, his eyes atoned for everything. They were gray and a little vague, but kindness and honesty looked out of them boldly and unashamed. And this was odd, because he had had an expensive education, and might have been expected to have the usual finesse of the Society man.
