NEW YORK SAID TO
BE GROWING STINGY

NEW YORK, Feb. ct has been
often said that New York is the most
extravagant city in the United States.
Things are changing, however, and 1t
may soon enjoy the reputation of be-
ing the most frugal burg in the
country. Pictured in popular fancy
as inhabited by a strange race that
takes no food but lobster and pate de
fois gras, no drink but champagne,
New Workers may actually be seen
dining on leftover ham bones and
drinking hydrant water. Before the
war began and George w. Perkins
started his domestic science crusade,
the average weekly expense for food
by the New York family of five was
estimated at $l5,75, and the family of
four at $12G0 Now II is estimated
that the family of five can live on
$l2.S7 and the family of four on
5000 To be extravagant is out of
date, and very vulgar, too. TO be in
style one must be economical.

another house humorist in the per
son of Representative William $.
Goodwin, a democrat, of Arkansas.
II is claimed by members of the
Arkansas delegation that their state
did not fare as well as some others
in the distribution Of appropriations
for rivers and harbors. This en-
couraged Mr.. Goodwin to rise twice
during night session of the house
and poke fun at some paragraph in
the bill For his first verbal on
slaurht Representative Goodwin pick

Il think We are getting down TO

said Mr. Goodwin, with mock serious
ness. For great many years |
have contended that the rights If
one man are as paramount as the
rights Of all men. Here we have an
appropriation for Smiths Creek. Is

The house began to enjoy the

item fidgeted in their seats.

owls grease might be brought down
from the Blue Ridge mountains to

that the supply Of owls grease Is

THE RIGHT To HIT
Or NOT To HIT

ATLANTA, Ga, Dec. 1.-THE mo-
mentous question of whether wife
las a right to hit her husband over the
read with a coffee cup yesterday tied
up an entire section of the Fulton
county superior court for several
hours.
The point came up in the case OF
Francis M. Webb against Mrs. Emma
Corrinne Webb. He was sueing on the
grounds Of cruel treatment for total
divorce. He went on the stand and
told how friend wife had "buifed" him
over the Uranium with a coffee cup at
the breakfast table, and the twelve
men, good and true, retired to bring in
what everybody imagined would be a
quick verdict. After an hour the jury
returned and the foreman announced
that they were unable to reach a ver-
dict because one member of the jury
and he was a married mani maintain
ed that a mans wife had right to HI.
with coffee cup if she wanted to. The
other eleven did lot of demonstrating
with the advocate of advanced woman's'
rights, but without avail and finally Il
vas necessary to declare a mistrial.

WOOTEN WAREHOUSE
BURNS At SHEL[MAN
1900 BALES COTTON

SHELLMAN, Ga, Dec. 1.-THE
Wooten Warehouse, the largest one in
Shellman and a modern brick building,
was entirely destroyed by fire Friday
night, entailing very haevy loss.
Besides the building, three thous-
and bales cotton were burned, wholly
or in part.
The loss is only partly covered by
insurance and the loss will fall severe
~ upon many farmers hereabout. The
origin of the fire has not yet been as
certained.
The flames were seen from boti
Dawson and Cuthbert as they leaped
above the doomed building. The loss
is probably $4,000.
