and jellies you've been fixing, and
prepare for cleanup. And let's

And don't worry. I'm not leaving

during which time suffered all the

somebody else is getting her man,
all is rosy.
And | honestly believe that did

and all the suffering l have heaped

In order to tell you all about our

grandmother.
And if baby hands don't do for

IN NEW YORK

New York, July q. Several of
New York's niftiest haberdasheries
are to be found neither on Madison
nor Fifth Avenue, but, strange to
say, just off the Bowery.
The window displays reveal all
those things the well-dressed man
would like to wear If he could afford
them. Cravats are priced at 81 per
each and silk shirts can be had at
the modest figure Of $50. And there
are lavish dressing gowns, vests,
spats, canes and all the rest.
And this palace Of extravaganza
can be found just around the COR
ner from "flop houses" Bowery
speakeasies and such. The snap
piest Fifth Avenue store could do
no more than duplicate the wares
and the prices, in contrast with
the rental, are equal to the most ex-
pensive smart shops"
As . matter of fact. even the
Bowery belt has it's "spenders."

every effort to 60 the Fifth Avenue

a great deal of easy money has been
passed out in the one-time heart of
