DAVE the snnn AWAY

The natural inference was that they
were a newly married couple.
The motherly old lady in lace cap and
gold eyeglasses who sat with them at the
table of an uptown hotel at dinner last
evening Enthusiastically shared in this infer
ence. She bestowed upon them several
benign smiles and finally said;
son your honeymoon, presume! re-
member mine very we'll, though it was a
long time ago.
The bride cast her eyes down upon the
plate, but the bridegroom looked up and
bluffe with we'll affected nonchalancs:
20, no; we've been married long
time"
The old ladys eyes twinkled behind her
glasses, the bride blushed a tritle and the
bridegroom burned his mouth with hot
cafe au lait.
There was silence for few moments,
and then the bride said to her dear one:
"Will you have some olives, George?"
mo, Gwendolen. darling; don't like
olives"
"Oh, murmured the bride, confusedly,
ut takes longer than week, you know,
George dear, to learn ones tastes"

where to stop in chicago.

The perplexing question which is every
day asked by people who desire to 60 to
Chicago to attend the Worlds fair is,
"Where are We going to stay when We get
thereG" This is easily answered, and if
you will go to the ticket agent Of the
Santa Fe, Mr.. W. NJ. Smith, he will tell
you.
Arrangements have been made for the
distribution by the Santa Fe company OF
a pamphlet entitled "Homes for Visitors
to the Worlds Fair" This is reliable
pamphlet containing the rames and ad.
dresses of about 5000 families who will
furnish accommodations to visitors from
May to October 81, 1898. The pamphlet
also contains sectional maps which will
enable the intending visitor to select any
quarter of the city that he would prefer.
Correspondence can then be carried on
and definite arrangements made so that
when visitors arrive in Chicago they can
proceed at once to their quarters.
