Ii has remained for Chicago TO do the

And Chicago has done it. Chivalry is
to be the order of the day. knights
errant are to walk down State street
and on Jackson boulevard; ladies fair
are to reward with ribbons and with
smiles the deeds of greatness done by
their favored champions. Chicago is
to be the city chivalrous.
All these surprising things which are
to happen to Chicago We're made known
at luncheon given at noon as Il fare
well to Mrs Isabel Garrison, who is
to spend the summer in Europe. Mrs.
Garrison is the leader in the move
ment for bringing the days of chivalry
into the prosaic present Eleven
friends gathered with her at Il table
to typify the twelve knights who erst-
while sat at the round table OF King
Arthur and recOunted the deeds Of
valor they had done.
When the coffee and the cheese had
been placed upon the table Mrs. Garri-
son outlined her plans for the emo
bling of the youth of the land and the
identifying of the city.
Orders of knights Grant are to be or
gained among the boys of the gram
mar schools of Chicago. Each chapter
is to be presided over by his majesty
King Arthur and shall be named for
one of the Arthurian knights, with the
exception of the chapter royal. which
shall be called Chevalier de la Sale.
Each boy who would be knight err
rant must take the following oath:
Hereby | solemnIy do promise serv-
ice, loyalty and declare my allegiance
TO Chicago. my city chivalrous, to he
her faithful knight henceforth.'
Truth, gentleness, kindness to ami
mails as well as to humankind. faith
fulness and industry-these are the
knightly qualities which the members
of the order will be expected to eXem-
plify.
The shield for the chapters will bear
three C's, for Chicago, City Chival-
rous," and the shield for the chapter
royal shall be the Arthurian shield
upon an American eagle, with the
words from Tennyson, And Arthur
shall come again.
Mrs. Garrison offers prize of so to
the boy who sha. do the most for the
furthering of the orders, and while in
Europe she will secure a full suit Of
armor which shall be worn by the King
Arthur of the Chevalier de La Sale.

to fame and death. The rest of us,
however, may be excused for believing

Mr.. Wellman was educated iii the
district schools of Michigan. At the
age of fourteen he launched a weekly
newspaper at Sutton, Neb., and when

He did notable work as n correspond

gIishman who makes love to her.
Your men, l take Ii. are too much
in q hurry in their love affairs. They
rush a girl. That word is strictly
American in the sense l have just used
it and very apropoS OF the methods
your men pursue. The Englishman
never rushes in anything, particularly
not In matters that affect his heart. A
woman is flattered by the time he
takes in his lovemaking. To the Amer
lean girl used to the other sort of man
ii is refreshing and has in il subtle
fiatCery, l dare say, that eventually
wins her over. Your men rush the
poor creature to death. and all senti-
ment goes a-glimmering.
American men may make fairly good
lovers before marriage; they may
shower their fiancees with American
Beauties they may stuff sweets down
their pretty threats. they may provide
all sorts OF entertainment, but 1t Is so
palpably lavished upon the girl that she
becomes surfeited with the purely
material demonstrations of the mans
affection.
He fOrgets to tell her that he loves
her; in his businesslike way he recalls
the day when he honored her with the
avowal Of his affection and he looks
with pride upon the four carat solitaire
or tie band of brilliants which CLEAN

like that famous adj he thinks 'nuf

But with us it is different. A man is
more devoted after he is married than
before, and while he does not buy roses
by the ton, he does not forget the bunch
of violets or the roadside buttercup. it
might be, of which he has heard his wife
express herself as fond on some happy
occasion in the past-an occasion Of
which she may have forgotten until re-
minded of 1t through the thoughtful
ness and sentiment of her husband.
Those are some of the reasons why
our men make American women better
husbands. Your women are filled with
sentiment; they must have fiattery
must have affection, and when the
American gets to taking too much for
granted the stupid Englishman comes
