MILWAUKEE: | A Closed Model Witsur'’s mother took him into his first sun parlor. “Gee!” Wilbur exclaimed, “It's a sedan porch, ain't it?” WHITING-ADAMS> ~The Household Buy-word meaning: ‘Good Brushes WHITING-ADAMS BRUSHES Hastening the Happy Day “I Gave my stenographer a little raise last’ week,” said J. Keene Brown, twelfth vice-president of the First, Second and Third National Bank; “and when she came in to thank me she said she would soon be making cnough to get married. She is an old- fashioned girl and doesn’t believe in girls’ getting married until their income is sufficient. “She has been wanting to step off for a long time. Only the fact that she supports her father, mother and two brothers who are banjo players has held her back. She doesn’t like to take on a husband until she can provide him with a good home and plenty of spend- ing money. “Her intended is a nice young man, who often comes around to the office on pay-day to go to lunch with her.

Whereto Sam rejoined meanly, When a boulder slips off the side of a mountain, it doesn't make much difference in the general outline of the mountain, for which I rebuked him roundly in private, foras- much as, albeit it was spoken in je it is likely to be taken seriously by Marge, and set her off on one of those strenuous string bean diets which make her such poor company at table and elsewhere. Bridge being suggested, we telephoned here and there for a fourth, with so poor success that Sam was for asking the new parlourmaid if she could play, so I told him, All right, go ahead, and that was the end of that. Bob Akin finally popped in, however, whereupon we fell to cards at once, I gaining twenty-four dollars, which I mean to lay out on a bottle of Dans La Nuit. If I were spend ing twenty-four dollars on something in a bottle it would not be perfume, quoth Sam, under the erroneous im- pression that he was giving us a piece of news. How out of order he has been all this day! When Bob did pro- duce some specimens of his amateu photography, in which he strives to get the maximum effect with the minimum recording, or something of the sort, Sam did examine one care- fully and pronounce, I like this the best—you can hardly sce it at all. To the Lafayette for supper, and then to bed, reading myself to sleep on ex- cerpts from the philosophy of the Chinese, which sounds a good deal like the advertising matter of contempo- rary courses in the cultivation of per- sonality.
