A young man wished to purchase a present for his sweetheart and after
careful consideration, he decided to buy her a pair of gloves. Accompanied
by his sister, he went to a women's wear shop and bought a pair of expensive
gloves. Meanwhile, his sister bought a pair of panties. In the delivery, the
packages got mixed up; his sister got the gloves and he got the panties.
Without checking the contents of the package, he sent it to his sweetheart
with the following note:
Dearest One,
This little gift is to show you I have not forgotten your birthday. I
chose them because I noticed you were not in the habit of wearing any
when you went out in the evenings. If it hadn't been for my sister, who
was with me when I bought them, I would have picked out long ones with
buttons, but she said the latest style is to wear them unbuttoned, and
hanging down. I had her try them on for me and she looked very smart in
them. How I wish I could put them on for you the first time, but no doubt
many other hands will touch them before I have a chance. I did not know
what size to get, yet I should be capable of judging better than anyone
else. When you take them off, blow in them as they will be a little damp
from wearing them. Be sure to keep them on while cleaning them; otherwise
they will shrink.
With my fondest love,
P.S. Just think of the number of times I will kiss the back of them in the
coming year.
