Kellen owed Miss Van Wyck to the

her into the region that knew him.

WHeN THINKINe Of MARRIAoE

Learn whether she Is selfish. You
ran tell this IN three ways-by the
manner IN which she listens to what
Tou say, by the way she accepts what
you do for her, and by the difference
between the way she treats you and
the way she treats others.
Is she lckle! II she talks about
light things she isn't. Deep, she is.
Ia she extravagant? Study the way
in which she protests against your
spending money on her and always ar
ranges matters so that you can't help
but do It.
Is she a bad housekeeper? Watch
the way she dresses. II she is spic and
span she isn't. II she isn't then
she Is.
THE SOLUTION.
When you have satisfied your mind
that she is all Of these things marry
her at once, II you can get her, for the
following reasons:
First. because II she really loves YOU
she will change.
Second. because II you love her II
will be so much more interesting.
Third, because you are probably
mistaken about her anyway.-Judge.

APARTMENT HOUSE RENTING
on THE WEST SIDE AND on
MORNINGSIDE HEIGHTS,

h widest Choice Of Elevator Flats and
Apartment Hotels Ii Found west OF
the Park, where as q Rule Prices Range
Between 5000 and $1,000 . Year
The Tenement House Department makes
a distinction between an elevator fat house
and an elevator apartment house. Tho
former contains from three to seven rooms
in a suite, the latter more than seven rooms.
For the sake OF convenience this classified
ton is used In the present article.
The principal elevator apartment house
and elevator fat house district Is On tho
West Side, extending from Fifty-ninth
street northward to about 125th street.
and from Central Park westward to the
Hudson River, Is largely built up with els.
vator fats, apartment hotels and elevator
apartment houses. r
The usual type Of elevator fat found on
the West Side covers a twenty-five or fifty
foot lot and Is Eve or six stories high. Ele-
vator apartment houses as a rule OCCUPY
a site at least io0xioo feet in area, and vary
from seven to twelve stories.
In the side streets on the West Side, In
the Seventies and Eighties, there are hum
dreds OF non-elevator fats erected eight
or ten years ago. They commonly include
two apartments on q floor: n OF six rooms,
the other Of seven, renting anywhere from
80 to $50 a month.
In the larger buildings with elevator
service suites Of from five TO seven rooms
bring from $50 to S7s q month. An apart
ment containing ten rooms will command
q rental of from s7s TO Sia5 O month. In
elevator buildings hall attendahoe, tele-
phone service, tiled bath rooms, shower
baths and electric light are invariably
provided by the landlord.
However. the typical apartment houses
on the West Side are the palatial structures
erected within the last few years on Central
Park West and Riverside Drive and along
upper Broadway. They v tn some
instances an entire block OF land and oorn-
mand admiration for architectural effect
and interior decoration. The entrance
halls. finished In marble with their pro-
fusion Of palms. their costly rugs and furni-I
turs and their Inverted attendents, give
an impression Of quiet exclusiv euess.
wealth and luxury. Frequently there lie n
elaborate. heavily tapestried reception
room Or a library with books In choice
bindings. as well as assembly rooms for
private entertainments.
The living rooms are large and airy.
