Elan was the Main Whizzer in 6
huddle of Queen Annes, bounded OF
the North by a cleaning Cemetery, or
the East by limping Subdivision
on the South by deserted Creamery
and on the West by an expanse oil
Stubble.
Claudine was the other two-thirds OF
the Specially.
She was a snappy little Trick, and
1t was dull hour of the Day or Night
when she couldn't frame up a new
General Order for the Breadwinner.
The Marriage came off during the
third summer of her twenty-seventh
year.
She accepted Elan about week
before he proposed to her, thus sim
plifying the Ordeal.
While the Wafer on the License was
still warm, she put on her spangled
Suit, moved to the center of the Ring,
and cracked the Whip.
After that Elan continued to be a
Hellion around the Office, but in his
private Quarters he was merely Otto,
the Trained Seal.
Claudine could make him bark, play
the Cymbals, or go back to the Blue
Bench.
There is one Elan in every Settle
ment.
All the wise Paper-Hangers and the
fly Guitar Players had him marked up
as Noodle, but somehow, every time
the winning Numbers were hung out,
he would be found in Line, waiting to
cash.
He was not Bright enough to do any
thing except garner the Gold Certifi-
Gates.
ELAN had no Ear for Music, and,
coming out Of the Opera House, never
could remember the name of the Play
or which one of the Burglars was the
real Hero.
His Reading was confined to the
Headlines of conservative Paper
which was still printing War News.
Baseball had not come into his Life
whatsoever.
A cultured Steno, who knew about |
George Meredith and Arnold Bennett, |
had to do his Spelling for him at Ia |
Bucks per.
The Cerebellum of Elan was prob
ably about the dimensions of a |
Malaga Grape.
Sizing him by his Looks, one would
have opined that Nature meant him
for O. Ticket-taker in suburban
Cinema Palace
Nevertheless, he had his Opinions.
He believed that Congress should al
ways adjourn Immediately after con-
vening, and not tamper with Business.
He felt confident that Our Country
might develop a Future If the Labor
Unions could be suppressed.
Elan was mental Gnat and a

Two years had elapsed since the es-
cape from being Buried Alive. They
were, to all outward appearances, City
broke.
One day Claudine allowed that she
was tired of Bridge and the gay Rou-
tine. She announced that she was
slipping away to Virginia Hot Springs
to cool out and rest.
Elan said that while she was lying
up, he would inspect certain Mining
Properties in Canada.
He drove Honey to the train; then
he tore back to the palatial Home,
chucked a few Props into Suit Case,
and headed for the Grand Central.
He never stopped going until he
ducked in the Back Way, through the
Grape Arbor, past the Woodshed, into
the Kitchen of the old Homestead
in which he first saw the Light of
Day.

CuItivating Safe Habits.

There is much in mental habits in
relation to industrial safety. Accord
ing to Safety, publication of the New
York Central railroad, "selfcontrol is
one of the big things in life. Many
times railroad men are injured
through taking unnecessary chances
that are the results of sudden i'm.
pulses. 1t is common, for instance,
for a trainman switching cars, upon
observing coupler not properly lined
up just as cars are about to come to-
gether, to impulsively step in and
shove the coupler over without first
stopping the cars. Often these things,
at first done impulsively, are tried
again and again, until an unsafe habit
is formed. The necessity of cultivat
ing coolheadedness and self-control, as
a safety factor, is indisputable.

Gravy came under the head of Regu
lar Food.
| She could turn out Waff1es as long
| as there was a Customer in sight The
Biscuits on which she specialized were
light as Down.
The things she fixed to Eat were
Fine and Dandy, but she never had
heard of Cuisine. When you took
her away from regular Chow and
made her tackle something Casserole
or En- Tasse, she blew.
Also there was a Maid who should
have belonged to the Stevedores'
Union.
She could pack Victuals in from
the Buttery and slam them down on
the Table, a la Commercial Hotel,
but when it came to building up an
intricate Design with an ingrowing
Napkin, three Spoons, four Knives,
five Forks, and all the long-stemmed
Glasses, to say nothing of an artfu1
pyramiding of Cut Flowers around the
Candelabra, then she was simply a fe-
male Blacksmith.
Claudine would throw a Dinner
once in while, just to subdue the
Wife and Daughter of the National
Bank, but the Crew would nearly al
ways crab the Entertainment
With the Support accorded by the
bone-headed Staff, she had fat
Chance to give correct Imitation of
Mrs. Stuyvesant Fish.
All during the nine Courses she had
to yelp more Orders than the Fore
man of Street Gang. A Megaphone
would have helped some.
The Hostess who wishes to look
and carry on like a Duchess, certainly
finds it vexing when pop-eyed Lizzie
leans against all of the principal
Guests in turn and then endeavors to
shoot the Episcopalian Rector in the
Neck with a gush of real Champagne.
After one of these fliv Affairs, at
which the Rummies had balled up
he whole Menu, Claudine came to the
front with an Ultimatum. She said

Next day, thousands of warm-heart
ed New Workers were packed along
the Water Front all the Way from the
Battery to Grants Tomb, giving roya
Welcome to the Corn-fed Pilgrims. Al
any rate, they were Packed.
When Elan and Claudine entered
the Hotel, the discerning Bell-Hops
had them stand back until the others
had registered.
They were Important, but they did
not carry any Signs,
Elan should have worn the Letter
| of Credit on the outside.
After they had taken the Imperial
Suite and invited all the Servants on
the Twelfth Floor to Silver Shower,
they found that the Call-Bells worked
fine. If ELAN moved in the general
direction of Button, handsome
West Pointer would fit in with a
pitcher of Iced Water and then hover
around for his Bit.
Both realized that the first requisite
was lot of new money.
Even when they raped sharply
with a Spoon and ordered Garcon to
hurry up the Little Birds with a
Flagon of ST. Regis Bubbles to come
along as a Drench, they realized that
they did not look the Parts.
Elan still combed mis- Hair lin the
style approved by the BARRIERS Guide
and Manual for 1887.
Claudine was fully clothed as far up
as her Neck and didn't have the
Nerve to hoist the Lorgnette.
Elan went out and had himself
draped by swagger Tailor who was
said to do a lot of Work for the Van
derbilt boys.
In his Afternoon Wear he resembled
the Manager of a Black-Goods Depart
ment.
After DOMINIC the complete Soup
and Fish, known in swozzey circles as
Thirteen and the Odd, he didn't look
as much like a Waiter as one might
have supposed. He looked more like
the Bus who takes away the Dishes.
Claudine yielded herself up to a
Modiste. The good Woman from out |

"Made in America" Vacations.

In the Woman's Home Companion is
appearing series of articles entitled
/" Made in America Vacations" various
trips are laid out in detail for the bene.
fit of readers. In the May issue the
subject of vacation spent in the great
cities of the East is taken up. After
the traveller has gone to Boston from
wherever he lives, he can set out from
Boston and see the great cities of the
East at an expense of 5000. Follow
ing is an extract from the article:
"The principal large cities of historic
and general interest in the East are sit
uated within comparatively small area.
This makes it possible to complete 4
fairly comprehensive tour of these cities
within two weeks vacation allowing
three days each for New York and
Washington, two days for Boston, and a
day and half for Philadelphia, and a
day each for Baltimore and Richmond.
The plan also includes two pleasant all.
night trips on inland waterways with
an alternative third and affords the OPP
portunity of visiting two of the most
noted of Atlantic ocean resorts, Atlantic
City and Old Point Comfort. The cost
per person of the trip, for two people
travelling together, is 5000, including
everything"
