The Story of a Mistaken Gift

A man thought of purchasing a gift for his sweetheart.  After much deliberation, he finally decided on a pair of gloves.  He was accompanied by his sister to a ladies’ shop to make the purchase.  His sister bought a pair of panties for herself, and he bought a pair of gloves for his sweetheart.

   The packages got mixed up while they were being wrapped at the store that his sister got the gloves and he got the other package which was the panties.  He so sent the package to his sweetheart with a letter he wrote, which read as follows:

   D e a r e s t   s w e e t h e a r t:

   This is to remind you that I’m keeping track of you on Christmas.  I chose this gift to replace the one I tore the first time I was with you because from time to time I met you, you have not been in the habit of wearing one when we got out, especially in the evening.
   If it had not been for my sister, I would have bought you the long ones with buttons, but she said everybody is wearing short ones. They are of very delicate colors.  The saleslady I bought from showed me a pair she had been wearing for three months and they have not been soiled at all.  She said they had not been washed for three months.
   I wish I could put them on you, myself.  But no doubt many other gentlemen’s hand will come in contact with them before I have the chance to see them again.  Anyway, I hope you will think of everything the moment you put it on.
   I had the saleslady put them on herself for size, and they looked very nice on her.  I did not know the  exact size, but I thought it would be more capable than anyone else.  They will naturally be a little deep for wear and something have the tendency to smell, so sift a little Talcum powder into them before wearing them.
   I almost envy them as they cover a part of your body which I love to hold and squeeze.  Be sure to keep them on while cleaning, as they are liable to shrink...I hope you will accept them  with the thought that I have when I gave them to you and be sure to wear them next Friday everning so that I may have the pleasure of removing them!

                        With love and kisses

   P.S. I’m looking for the time I will kiss the back as well as the front. The saleslady said that the latest style is unbuttoned and hanging.  This gives them the careless look.  If they are too small, send them back to me  and I will stretch them by putting them on myself.  Don’t forget my favorite scent.  I love you very much and take care of it.
