has been received direct from a commit

Secretary Mansfield, Sunday. he had Sc
cured the signatures of all but two of the

is WOMAN SELFISH?
Judging from This Instance 1t Looks
If She Is.


If She Is.
1t was on a south-bound Cottage
Grove avenue car that the incident hap
pened. 1t was five o'clock in the after
noon, and every seat in the car was oc-
cupied by women. There was just one
man in the car, and he was standing up.
He was weary after days hard work,
and as he was going to Fiftieth street
he looked forward rather eagerly to the
moment when one of the women would
leave the car and thus give him q seat.
He congratulated himself upon his
good fortune when he saw one of the
women signal the conductor to stop at
Sixteenth street, and as she arose and
moved toward the door he started to-
ward the vacant seat. He did not get
it, however, for at that moment the
two women on either side partially
arose, shook out their skirts a little,
and when they settled back In their
seats the vacancy was g. thing of the
past.
He was q trife disconnected, but he
held onto the strap and patiently bided
his time.
AS the car approached Michigan ave-
nue. and Twenty-second street he saw
two or three women giving evident signs
of disembarking, and hope rose high
within his breast. He even debated q
little in his mind as to which seat he
would select
Sure enough, three women did leave
the car at that point, but. alas, for his
hopesl Before he could reach any of
the seats there was another partial ris-
ing of women, another shaking out of
skirts, and a complete absorption of
all vacant places.
Did any of them look as though they
had knowingly deprived him OF q seate
Bless, you, no. There was an express
sion of the sweetest unconsciousness
upon all their faces, and as the man
gazed down upon them, looking In vain
for some telltale expression of shame
at the selfish manifestation, he mar
veled much.
1t was growing interesting to him
now, and his anxiety to get a seat was
forgotten in his curiosity to zee how
much longer the women would con-
tinue their present tactics.
At Thirty-hrst street two more got
of. He might have secured q seat at
this point had he been very anxious,
but he waited moment to see what the
women would do, and after a moments
hesitation the old process was gone
through with, and the vacant places
were absorbed. What q look of salts
faction, too, there was upon their faces
as they surveyed their ample skirt
breadths spread out, without check or
hindrance on either side,
At Thirty-fifth street two more left
the car. The situation now became In
teresting, for it hardly seemed pos
sible to close up these gaps. There was
a moments anxious inspection of the
situation, however, and then another
skillfully executed plan of absorption,
and how beaming those women did look
as they observed the complete success
OF their undertaking.
At Thirty-ninth street, however, the
barrier was hopelessly broken; human
ingenuity could do no more, and with
sighs of disappointment the remaining
women sank back and beheld the lone
male passenger sink wearily into a scat.

Householders who in cold weather

the aim of excluding the wintry blast,
