Let us now sit on the case of the
gift necktie.
Tom Citizen had received a neck
tie for Christmas present. 1t was a
purple affair with dots in it of some
strange imported color 1t wasn't a
bad looking effort at that, and Citizen
laid it away for some day when he
was feeling skittish enough to spring
1t. Then he forgot about it.
1t stayed there In his chiffonier
drawer for some sixty days, and then
he happened on it accidentally and
grabbed it Just as man clutches at
a 1O-cent piece in his overcoat pocket
that he didn't know he had
Yes, of course Citizen had to illumin-
ate himself in that new tie effect. And
he got just as far as the front room
before Mrs. Citizen halted him and
ordered him to take it off and put it
away.
THE idea! The very ideal The
very ideal" she observed, "of wearing
bright purple necktie and a pink

Lined up side by side. like tents in
form a camp which is maintained by
the Ethical Culture society of New
York as a summer retreat for. its
working girl members. From May
to October these girls are privileged
to enjoy all the advantages of the
camp for $3.50 a week.
The matron in charge attends to
the cooking and superintends the
daily life of the girls. A few girls
working their way through school and
desiring work for the summer are
chosen to help the matron attend to
the cleaning. The most substantial
cars stand in row by themselves
and form the sleeping apartments.
Two cots to a room is the average,
but if third is desired it is added,
although this makes the place pretty
crowded.
The cars are Invested of wheels
and rest on firm foundation. Both
doors can be kept open if necessary,
as well as the windows, thus really
affording as much fresh air as
though the girls slept out of doors.
At distance another group of cars
comprise the kitchen, dining room,
pantry and storehouse. The kitchen
is as neat and convenient as those on
dining cars. A stress car is very con-
veniently transformed into a dining
room by leaving the seats intact and
running a long table up through the
middle Close at hand under the
trees stands the ice chest and nearby
a cement sink with drain leading to
the stream below the camp. Behind
the cars are croquet ground and
tennis court.
Throughout the clump of woods
that adjoins the camp hammocks are
swung, where the tired, footsore
shopgirl may rest in quietness. Not
the least of the charms of this unique
camp is the creek that flows by its
very doors. The clear, sparkling
water is itself an invitation for a
plunge and the girls are not slow to
avail themselves Of the privilege. The
water is not deep, only here and
there of sufficient depth for swim,
but wading is delight that never
grows old.

been one of the popular educators
in the public schools of Chicago. The

several years had club named after

back yard adjacent to the sign and

Nothing happened the first day, but
several train crews read the sign as
they were goin' by. The word was
passed along the line and the boys
got into good natured contest to see
which one would be first to hit the
mule and get the five spot. Anse got

five-dollar bill at 'em as they went by.
Excitement soon rose to a fever heat.
The second day Anse got about half
a ton of good soft coal which landed
in the yard and Maud, for of course
that was the mules name, lodged ev-
cry one of the chunks successful The
third day Anse got whole wagon
load and hired shed from Deacon
Purdy to store it in. Coal kept comm
a little more very day until Anse had
to hire two men to load it on the
wagons and haul it to the shed.
This kept up all summer and Anse
didn't take the sign down until late
in the fall. He had enough coal on
hand to supply several good contracts
and never lost five-dollar bill. To-

tracts from letters received at this office
will give an idea of the interest being

1.-THE greatest crime of the nine
teenth century" said Addison Spriggs,
after he had called for a second cup
of coffee, lis being committed in Eng
land in this year of grace"
Il know it," replied Francis Xavier
McGavick, who sat just across the
table.
"Then you have been thinking of it,
too?"
Thinking of what?"
"Of this terrible and perfectly un-
necessary crime"
(which one do you mean?"
"The one l have just referred to-"
Il haven't been thinking much
about 1t, no. but it's bad. Ireland
ought to be free and she will be-"
II agree with you, my friend, but
1t was not of Ireland that l was think
ing. l refer to the deliberate efforts
of certain people in England to bring
about war with Germany. Of course
Germany is just as guilty as England
is. They're both to blame. Why
should there be war between these
two great nations? Why should there
be war at all? 1t is time people were
becoming enlightened enough to get
along without fighting. Let savages
fight If they must, but the people who
set themselves up as the great adj
vancers of civilization should be in
some better business than building
Dreadnoughts and forming great ar
mics for the purpose of playing into
the hands of few greedy million
aires who are anxious to secure trade
"Well," said Mr.. McGavick, "I'll not
care much, as long as Ireland amt
hurt. I'd like to see the English get
good licking, anyhow"

Matching Up a Necktie
BY ROY X. MOULTON.

Il don't know about those purple
shirts and that blue serge suit" she
remarked. Don't you think you'd
better exchange couple of them?"
TOO late now" snapped Citizen.
These are the only ones they had in
the sale in my size and the right
sleeve length"
After he got down town that morn
ing, Citizen got to thinking about the
purple things and the blue suit 'The
fact is" he reflected, 1--WE been need
ing a new suit, anyway, and it might
not be a bad stunt to pick up some
thing now that they're having their
sales in these tailor places" Just to
see what he could do, he dropped in
at a place and had the man show him
some patterns in gray, warranted not
to clash with any color a man has on.
They had one at $3S that used to be
$50, that was about what Brown had
been needing.
A week later, Citizen surprised his
wife by appearing in his new gray eff
fects with the royal purple trimmings.
