"ModeI at Last Perfected"

"A number of modelse have been made, but not until few days ago was one completed which measured up to the standard for which it was planned. It's outward appearance resembles that of a Morris chair, it being withal chair of comfort, with a roomy, sotr cushioned seat, and a back rest easily and quickly adjusted to any desired inclination, while in a sitting posture.
 Tt has, likewise, armrests of suffi- cient area to be of use in writing or in placing thereon articles of tempora- ry service, a magazine compartment for current literature and a book-snelf which may serve as the shelf de luxe of the reader, or reference shelf for the professional man.
 Sliding boxes are set in the upper part of the front legs, which can be used for card index files or other pur- poses that suggests itself. These boxes are equipped with lock and key. AS the legs are hollow and closed at the bottom, the space beneath these boxes can also be used.
 Another striking feature is the ad- unstable book holder, pivotly mounted on a swinging bracket, securely fasten- ed to the front leg. On the holder are two lodges, the upper to be used as a dictionary or directory stand and the lower for general reading-the upper ledge folding back when reading a large magazine or newspaper. The lower edge is equipped with two leaf holders and when in it's lowest posi- .tion the holder may be used as a writing or side table.
 "A sliding compartment on the un- der side of the book holder, in which stationery may be placed, is an added convenience.
 There is a swinging support oppo- site the bookholder suitable for type writer, dictophone, telephone cabinet stand or side table-and, being per fectly rigid, does not allow vibration.
 "The unique construction of the back rest forms pockets in which may be placed back numbers of current magazines, pamphlet and clippings, and, as the chair is not supported on castors, it can be moved about very easily.
 Whole work shows careful, scientif- ic study and is an innovation which will be welcomed by thousands. It is not only serviceable, but attractive as well, and is the business mans private office, the scholars and minis ter's study, the technical mans labora- tory, and the readers library. The chair has been named the Eskwin' chair, cleverly derived from the con- bination of the initials of the partners and the first models are now being made at the plant of the Opportunity Manufacturing Company"
 The success of the enterprise is as- sured, as a Saginaw concern carrying over two million in capital stock has taken the agency and is now widely advertising the chair, and MT. Klemm is now placing the models with dealers all over the East.

The truth is. and Peggy is not I'M

Evening Chit-Chat
BY Ruth Cameron

~ remind any one who is under
obligation to you OF that fact
is a serious breach of true
Il courtesy.
But to presume upon the
fact that some one to whom you are
under obligation is restrained by that
law of noblesse oblige from reminding
you of the obligation is ten times more
shameful.
And yet there are many people who
do just this and who escape scot free
because other people have so fine a
sense of courtesy that the ethereal
bonds of noblesse oblige are to them as
binding and unbreakable as shaclles of
iron.
For instance, young girl whose
father and mother are dead is living in
her married sisters home. The older
sister and her husband are not we'll off
and while they accepted the RESPONSE
bility of the girls upbringing without
a thought that anything else was pos
sible, it means constant self sacrifice.
One would think that the younger sis
ter would feel under great obligation
and be ready to do anything in her
power to make it up to her benefactors.
On the contrary she realizes that her
sister and husband have too much del
icacy of feeling to ever remind her that
she is being supported by them, and
she presumes upon this saftey to be
thoroughly selfish and ungrateful.

to wait upon her sister or do any lit
tie thing for her that might show her
gratitude she resents being asked for
services of this nature, and if she does
them, manages to make her sister feel
that she is demanding her pound of
flesh in asking for them.
That lastAt to me, is the meanest thing
this class of people do. If their bene-
factors, tried beyond endurance, do for

ask for some recognition, or reproach

1.-TWO little white Butterflies began
their lives close beside each
other in the big garden.
For many a day they had lain
there among the leaves closely
wrapped in their soft coverings, but
of course they were asleep then and
didn't know or care Anything about
their neighbors.
On the bright warm day when
they came out of their tiny cocoons,
each was surprised and pleased to
find company so close by and to-
gether they started to explore the
garden.

cheerfully, I'VE weren't going to take

And the two little butterflies fiut-
tered around to a big yellow sun
flower.
"Oh. isn't this one gorgeous. I
like it better than the rose"

the rose was lovely. This flower is

Just then there was a whir-r and

acceleration may be attributed to his
misuse of two otherwise excellent
things-time and money.
That she might enjoy undisturbed
Mr.. Anderson's urbane and fascinating
society, Peggy has prudently avoided
any reference to him within the family
circle. Not quite proper of Peggy, per-
haps. That. however is merely one
way OF looking at it. Consider Peggys
viewpoint.
Mr. Anderson Is not fast, and, any
way, older people are too fussy in these
matters. IF he has money and likes to
enjoy himself, why shouldn't he? He's
travelled and he's a gentleman-his
manner and conversation are charm
