As she walked round the huge department store,Edith reflected how difficult it
was to choose a suitable Christmas present for her wish that he was as
easy to please as her mother, who was always delighted with perfume
Besides,shoppong at this time of the year was a most disgreeable
experience :people trod on your toes,poked you with their elbows and almost
knocked you overin their haste to get to a bargain ahead of you.
Partly to have a rest, Edith paused in front of a counter where some attracive ties
were on display.

ties hardly ever pleased her father.
She moved on reluctantly and then quite by chance, stopped where a small
crowd of man had gathered round a counter. She found some good quality pipes on
sale-----and the prices were very reasonable. Edith did not hesitate for long :
although her father only smoked a pipe occasionally, she knew that this was a
present which was bund to please him.
When she got home,with her small well-chosen present concealed in her
handbag, her parents were already at the supper table. Her mother was in an
especially cheerful mood,
informed her daughter.
