CHICAGO AGAIN CLAIMS LEAD
This Time 1t Ia for the Meanest Man,
and He Surely Has "Some"
Qualifications!

Another "meanest man" has been
found. He was discovered In a north
hound elevated express. He had re-
manned seated although a woman stood
swaying on a strap in front of him.
The train was standing at the Fuller
ton avenue station when he jumped
to his feet, apparently realizing sud-
denly that his destination had been
reached. He started for the door.
When the man quit his seat it was.
logically, taken by the woman. Net
for long, however, did she hold It. A
second later he was DISCRETIONARY
having spotted the station name
through the open door.
Pardon me-" he said, shat wasn't
my station"
And he allowed the to rise
and give him the seat.-Chicago Jour-
nal.

HOME makers and hostesses are
IL making more and more use of
paper for household decoration, as a
substitute for linen and in many other
ways. The list of things for which
paper serves grows longer; even fancy
dress costumes and millinery are
made Of 1t and recently there has
been much experimenting with paper
toys. It's place is established as a
medium for making table decorations
as lamp and candle shades, floral
pieces, place cards and centerpieces.
The summer hostess finds frequent
use for these paper things, especially
In the affairs which concern the MEM
bers Of the younger set.
J. !Centerpieces, nut cups and place
cards, lamp and candle shades usu-
ally reflect the time of year and the
occasion. A bluebird table set, as
pictured here, is recommended for a
birthday table, although it is appro-
pirate for many other occasions as
well. 1t includes a centerpiece covered
with pink rose petals and having wire
handles wound with pink crepe. They
~intersect at the top and are tied at
this point with a big bow Of pink
gauze ribbon. Little "bluebirds of
happiness" cut from printed crepe
paper, are pasted to the ends Of short
lengths of pink baby ribbon and sus-
pended from the handles.
The foundation for the centerpiece
is made by cutting out a circle 10
inches in diameter, from cardboard.
A band of cardboard 81 inches wide

Whiskers Killed Her Love,

A divorce decree has been granted
In Vienna because a wife objected
that her husband, an ex-oficer, did
not shave or wash himself properly.
The official defender of the mar
rage bond appealed against the Ill
vorce, c~ontending that soap and other
toilet articles were now so dear that
many wives were disconnected with
their husbands toilet. B.
The appeal court, however. decided
that the couple were incompatible.
and that If the marriage had not been
mainly due to the glamour of uniform
the wife would have condoned her
husbands toilet economies.

CASE OF FORCIBLE ENTRY
Combination of Circumstances Re-

A short time ago my husband and I
attended the funeral of a friend whose
home was In the suburbs. We left in
plenty of time, but on account of the
distance and much transferring we
found to u dismay that we were go

After frequent delays we arrived at
our station. There had been a heavy
snowstorm the day before, and where
the walks had been cleaned it was slip
perry, making it difficult to hasten.
When W. reached the house, in hur-
rying up the outside stairs I slipped,
lost my balance, and fell headlong.
All might have been we'll had not the

FIRE DAMAGES
LYNCHBUnDDNG
$1,000 Loss Caused by Fire
In Kittson Avenue Struc-
lures Today.

Fire which started in the Office OF
the James Lynch feed store, 313 Kilt
son avenue, shortly before 1880 o'clock
this morning. caused a los of approx
mately $4,000. The fire "a caused
by an overheated s%tovepipe, it was
said, and spread quickly throughout
the upper part of the building and
into the living quarters Of Mr.. and
Mrs. J. Friedman and Mrs. l.. Vein
garten next door.
Mr.. Lynch said this afternoon that
the loss on his stock would total
more than $1,000. He was unable to
estimate the loss of the building.
owing to the fact that it is impossible
10 determine. today whether or not it
is worth rebuilding. The loss will be
$500 or $1,000. though. he said. He
carried $500 insurance on the stock
and $500 on the building.
Mr.. Friedman said tina his loss
and Mrs. Weingarten's loss would be
at least S50C. and probably would go
higher than that. Their loss is chiefly
from water and smoke. although the
attic above their living quarters was
badly burned. The upper part of the
Lynch building was Quilted.
The building occupied by the l..
Stinson company, just east OF Mr..
Lynch's place. was not damaged to
any extent. The roof and a portion
of the side wall are slightly burned.
Mr.. Lynch had about $1,000 worth
Of stock in his building. 1t consisted
of 700 bushels Of oats, 5000 worth OF
corn and feed, some fancy feeds for
spring use and a quantity of new
hay. 1t will be possible to salvage
some of the stock.
Mr.. Friedman USED the lower por-
ton of his building for a tailoring and
dry cleaning plant. His equipment
was damaged by smoke and water.
The fire spread quickly to the upper
part of the two buildings and "a
along the rafters under the roof,
making it a hard one to fight. The
fremen had it under control in a very
short time however.
