Why Not2

Apropos of Marion Crawford's remark
about our mustached buffers, that they
amused him after the shorn ones of Eng
land, why won't somebody say that our
butlers-our American butlers-wear
mustaches, and we, when abroad. find
it amusing to see the English buffers
smooth shaven, and wonder why their
masters do not insist that their mouths
be covered. Will the time ever come
when we will dare to be Americans?
There are great lessons to be learned
from the older nations of the world,
great models to be studied and wisdom
to be got from the experience which is
the accretion of centuries, concerning
which the taste of one cultivated COM
munity is as good as that of any other,
New York Times.

The Cat Was Hungry,

A young lady bookkeeper employed in
an Office at South Manchester, Conn,
has been in the habit for some time past
of giving the Office cat a piece of meat

taken to lay piece of paper under the
meat to avoid greasing the floor. The
other day at lunch hour, when there was
no meat, pussy begged for some in her
most intelligent fashion, and at last go
ing to the wastebasket dragged forth
her regular paper table cloth and laid it
properly for the Observation-Disclosures

Great Rock Island Route
TO THE EAST.

Best Dining Car Service in the World
The Rock Island is foremost in
adopting any advantage calculated
to improve speed and give that lux
ury, safety and comfort that popular
patronage demands. It's equipment
IS thoroughly complete with vesti-
buled trains, magnificent dining
cars, sleepers and chair coaches. all
the most elegant, and of recently i'm
proved patterns.
Faithful and capable management
and polite, honest service from en-
ployes are important items. They
are double duty-to the company
and. to travelers-and it is sometimes
a task difficult of accomplishment.
Passengers on this line will find little
cause for complaint on that ground.
REMEMBER
The Great Rock Island Route runs all
iegular trains to Englewood subur-
,an station, close to Worlds Fair
grounds, and you can save time and
i-odb,e by getting off at that point
