In all sections of society one hears
married men, and indeed others,
grumbling considerably at the OK
travagance of their womenkind in

have the right to grumbe but on
principle, ard in general. do not see
that they have any genuine grounds
for complaint. because if women are
now extraragant in slress it must be
remembered that for generations
men have been eXtravagant in other
and worse forms of self-nd,llgence.
And, after all, man can take comfort
to his soul in the knowledge that it is
chiefly with view to pleasing him
that woman INDUCES in follies Of this
sort, added to which he should count
it as gain that this particular form

succeed the Illinois Telephone and Tele-

new company is practically a reorganization
of the old company, with the difference
| that the elder concerns capitalization is
exceeded by SIS, 600 by the new company.
The charter gives the tunnel company the
