Those Selfish Chicapoans.

Mrs. Muggins- did you enjoy
your visit to the Worlds fair?
Mrs. Puggins-The fair was good
enough, but 7 don't think they had any
business to charge extra for the Condo
las and sideshows and things. Seems to
me the price of admission was enough to
cover it and give free lunch besides,
but it didn't. I never saw such selfish,
money saving creatures as them Chicago
people. The worst of the troubles,
though, came at night. That was aw.
full! We were packed four in room
sometimes, and one night the children
had to sleep on the sofas. Inever felt sc
annoyed in my life.
"Were you at hotel?''
"No, we were visitin relatives, and
other relatives kept comm. New York

the present year he was obliged to meet

If we had slept through

never have been in America.
We went after them and
rolled round gold dollars at
them and knocked them out
of the looms into ships fly

cause they were newer and
