A ChicngO Woman Who Has Q
Grievance for the Econ
omy Club.

Young Mrs. Woodlawn, who lives on
Prairie avenue, has not been housekeeping
very long, but she is versed in household
economy. She is prize member of the study
class in that subject at the Woman's club,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
Every hoaseke.per should do her own
marketing" says Mrs. Woodlawn, and every
morning at nine o'clock she starts out to con-
tribute to the layety of grocers and meat
shop men on Cottage Grove avenue. Once
she ordered leg of veal for two" an an.
other time she purchased trout on the half
shell" a few days ago she undertook to
negotiate for small roast of beef.
Eighteen cents a pound, ma am, said
the butcher.
Aren't you rather high" remarked Mrs.
Woodlawn. tentatively.
"No, indeed, ma am; steers like this meat
somes from. ma am, is sellin' for SIX dollars
on the hoof."
Mrs. Woodlawn gathered up her pocket
book and her parasol decidedly.
II shall lay this matter before the Social
Economies club" she said. III cattle are
worth only six dollars apiece and you sell
me roast beef at Is cents a pound, we are
in the clutches OF a monopoly, and will eat
trout as long as live before I'll stand it..
So there!"
