Struggle for Committee Seats

1t Is a foregone conclusion that there
will be a struggle for places on the
ways and means committee next year.
Five Republicans on that committee
will retire-Representat Babcock of
Wisconsin, McCleary of Minnesota and
Grosvenor of Ohio, because their con-
stituencies decided to leave them at
home; Representatives Curtis of Kan
sas and Smith Of Michigan, because
they have been promoted to the senate.
AS there is a possibility that the ques-

in the next congress these places will

msnts with Minimum Of
Expense.

Perhaps no one feature In the fur.
nishing OF a room Is so important as
the draperies. These moro than any.
thing else give character to their sur.
rCundings, and make an otherwise
commonplace room look individual
and comfortable. The success OF
draperies depends largely ON the way
in which they are hung. but this is n
matter Of which the average house
wife thinks but little.
Often expensive lace curtains are
seen hung with rings on a heavy brass
rod. and placed outside from the win.
dow casing. taking the place OF the
heavy overdraperies. These thin lace
curtains should be used as sash cur.
tains only, and should be hung within
the casing close to the sashea. The
heavy poles and rings are suitable
only for over-draperies.
These over-draperies are a very de-
sirable addition to a room. and they
should be OF some heavy material TO
nc into the color scheme OF the room.
Usually they are hung outside the
casing. though sometimes, 10 the wood.
work is particularly good. they are
hung within. II the window reaches
to the floor. the draperies should do
the same.

Uncle Jack.
Why. like both alike. Il Is a Jolly
day for sailing. but the driving party
Is going through a new country, and
I'D like to go with them"
Then go. by all means" said his
uncle.
"But like sailing too much to miss

suspect. or he wouldn't have been
such a donkey. One day his master
turned him into field In which there
were two large stacks OF hay, one at
either end. Plenty Of dinner either
way he turned. In fact. he turned first
one way and then the other. trying TO
decide which haystack looked the more
luscious and inviting. There did not
seem to be pin TO choose between
them. however. and the poor donkey
despaIred OF being able to decide which
would make the better dinner. and
which he ought to tackle FIRST.
when he got tired Of standing up
TO think about Il. he lay down and
wagged his head. I like BOTH he said
to himself. II choose one. I feel sure

oh yes. there was" replied Uncle
Jack. There are lots OF just such
donkeys."
We'll. what did this one do?" asked
the boy.
He went FIRST one way and then
the other. turning round aud round
and back and forth, until he dropped
from sheer exhaustion.
And then he lay down because he
had to. still tyylng TO think which hay.
stack he had better try to crawl to-
ward first. by this time, OF course. he
was very hungry. but yet It seemed to
him very foolish to take the haystack
which might. after all. be not 80 good
as the other one.
And finally this doS:;ey OF donkeys
actually lay there and starved to death
for no other reason on earth than be-
cause he could not decide what to eat
first 1t was a hard fate. indeed. to be
unable TO choose between them. Ter.

1T must have been pretty rough on

Tom. with a terrible look in his eyes.

At the opening session of the Chi.

beer as a mental exhilarator. The
crowd was evenly divided over the
coffee and beer question, and in near
ly all cases the coffee drinkers won
their games. The dispatches do not
state that the cold-water advocates,
or users of coffee substitutes, or
plain, old tea drinkers took any part
in the festivities, but it is supposed
they were regarded as back numbers.
