THE CHAMPION sHIRTwAIsr BUT
 

THE CHAMPION sHIRTWAIST BUT
 TONERS.
 There is nothing like training husbands in the way they should go. It must be source of great pride for a woman to have husband who can help her get dressed without committing those foolish blunders which are said to be so trying on the feminine temper domesticated Any man who can button up his wife with out getting called down is a rarity; one who is an expert at it is a wonder. The championship contest for shirtwaist but toners in Chicago is told about in the fol- lowing dispatch to the New York World. Let's read it:
 Chicago-If there is a husband in Chi- cago, who can fasten a 24-button embroid- cred shirtwaist in less than two minutes and seven seconds he is eligible to enter a contest for the model husband champion- ship of the city.
 There are 12 husbands and 12 admirinx wives who declare that 1t can't be done in second less than that time; that is, of course, without tearing off the but tons and damaging the delicate lace work
 The contest was decided at the home of Mrs. J. s. Mccullough, No. PSI Ken mare avenue. Nellie, the Beautiful Cloak Model.' upon whom the test was to be made, had been borrowed from a nearby dressmaker. She was composed of plaster, muslin and wood. Each of the 2 contestants sprang at the model with such haste that it was feared that he might ruin his chances by violating some of the rules. such as tearing away button or damaging the texture of the waist-both inexcusable in the eyes of the watching wives.
 Frank T. Avery and J. s. Mccullough tied for first place in two minutes and seven seconds. H. S. Lyman did it in three seconds less, but tore off button, which he was compelled to sew on VERY, VERY STRENUOUS. The time is drawing nearer when we'll
 hear conceited weights
 Remark with satisfaction most profound, As if for all the weakling world they harbored only sights, q wear the summer kind the year
 around.'
