CF1EWNINGS DROP COTTAGE IDEA
FOR RICH PLACE AND SERVANTS
Daughter of Senator Couzens and Bank
Clerk Bridegroom to Live In
Fashion.

With the mounting parental enthu-
siaSm of Senator and Mrs. James Cou-
zens for their newest son-ln-laW, "Jetf'
Chewing, have gone a-glimmering the
pretty but impractical plans OF Mrs
Margaret Couzens Chewing for 1896
''love-in-a-cottage" as exempltfied by
newlywed life in a one-room, kitchen
and bath apartment.
For the daughter of the richest man
in Congress and her bank-clerk bride
groom have abandoned the idea OF
starting their settling down in the little
apartment they chose before their elope-

the ultimate in preSent-day apartment
house accommodations at the fashion,

the Chewing household include hired
help and all the rest of the conveniences
Of present-day spacious apartments.

demonstration of Mrs. Chewning's do

evolve in the nature of lark and pro-
vide provender for hungry husband
Just returned in the wee, small hours
from gay, social event, rather than on
his way to perform his duties at the
West End Branch of the Washington
Loan & Trust Co., where he holds a
position.
The 19-year-old heiress bride of the
son of an aristocratic, Fredericksburg
Va, physician has been prevailed upon
by her parents to forego her resolve to
"see it through" upon the earnings of
her husband. Young Chewnings status
with the family of his bride continues
just as it was after his first meeting
with his multimillion father-in-law.
Like the Senator's other son-in-law and
his son, Frank, Senator Couzens expects
