some of the big hotels where he
stopped a tiny cube of sugar is al
lowed for tea or coffee Some OF the

got around the sugar shortage in a
way all their own. This man noticed
a number of them draw from their
knitting bags little cigarette cases of
silver. These they opened and partly
emptied Into their cups, surreptitiously,
of course. These New. York bellies"
he saws, "'Iove their smokes, but o you

the influence of sleighs for the good
of Cupid plans. But 1t seems that the
woman is misunderstood by eligible
girls They do say that a young wo-
man who was the object of the atten-
ticns of the son for a good while WIS
tipped off by a neighbor that she was
wasting her time, inasmuch as the
mother would muffle the clapper of
