.TlLSOA. MET THE LADIES < FIRST BUT TOM REILLY
 V sE,.I .e..i ~ F-- 7-- M ! HAD THE REAL WALLOP
Rivals For Congressional Honors Sel- dom Are Caught Napping-
 Clever Move by Tom in G. A. R. Pensions.

Not long ago party of school teachers came to Washington from Meriden. Congressman Reiily's home city, but Congressman Tilsons became first appraised of that fact and made a complete program for. them before Reilly knew they were in town. In due time he discovered they were there, said the Boston Advertiser.
 Let us go and see the interesting things at the treasury" he said.
 -Tilson has taken us there already. : what Tflson? We'll let us 60 to the Congressional Library..,4
 '-rilson has had us there" ,,
 And so on it went. Tilson seemed to have left nothing for Reilly to do but on sudden Reilly said:
 ''Tilson did not invite you to the ball game, did he?''
 Tilson had not thought of that and he lost half of his visitors that after But But Reilly has been e evening up mat ters. The coming of the Knights of Columbus -gave-r him his opportunity. and Reilly was so early bird that when Tilson looked around sto. see 1y'had pre- empted all the knights. and every Knight has "a vote.s M tA
 Reilly also had the advantage over Tilson .on the new pensions congress has granted. Tilson, as soon as he learned that Congress was to enact the law, arranged to inform every Civil war veteran in his district by providing him with a blank to be filled out. r Bnt-=the denocrAts Mere spryer than the republicans. They had arranged to get first information from the committee on conference. out to the various. G. A R posts the blanks necessary, having had them printed previously And so again Reilly came out awee bit. ahead of Tflson. :
 Thus the rivalry goes. Now one comes out ahead and now the other. It is wearing. however, on the nerves and costs a pretty penny. =.

COTTAGES THAT
 HAVE NO HALLS

Simplicity and the practical use Of space is characteristic of the newer cottages, which are so appealing. In many the entrance and the hallway are receiving an entirely novel treat ment. Often there is no actual ''halP' at all. The reception hall, which is really another 1iving-room on a small scale, takes the place of the narrow passage that accommodated merely the stairway and a hat-rack in former at- tractive decorative scheme for, these entries. And, in many instances, the reception hall, with perhaps an open fire, and andirons, and a settle, gives a. welcome in itself And it can really be used for living purposes, whereas the mere hallway was never place to finger.
 Some of the most charmingly plann- ed among the modern cottages go even further than this in their utili- hall. they have the whole front of the house arranged as one large living room. The street door may open into a small vestibule or directly into the big room. There is a small garden. but not much land in addition to the lots needed for the house. To utilize the space to best advantage. the cot, tage is, built sside-wise on the lot; that is, the entrance is on the side, and is reached by little path from the street. This allows the full depth of the lot for the length of the living room, the: lot having greater depth than frontage #l In this particular case the side -ar- rnngement is possible because there is an open garden space next door, which: makes a pleasant outlook from the front Of the; house. A tiny porch, with two high backed settees, makes a; quaint approach, for the old fashion ed looking doorway. There is no yes- tibule and no haH of any kind on. tAe gnound floor. A fireplace. is opposite the entrance. On one side of this is the door to the dining room; on ths liner a stairway, with artistic lines r1eading to the upper floors. Back of this stairway Is the Kitchen, but it must be entered through the dining room. In this way every bit of ground space Is made to tell. The plan made possible a much larger 1iving-room than could have been obtained by the introduction of the traditional hail- way or passage.
 Along the back of the lot, and across the nide of both the 1iving-roon and the dining-room, runs a. wide veranda.
 The other side of the house. which is really on the street, is banked with shruhbery. Two formal box trees stand as sentinels at the entrances Another path, graced with more shr1lbbery.. admits tradesmen to the practical and always desirable Kitchen entrance.
