The Saleen League vfas for him. Htjf contributor te his fund. He defied the U. H. constitution. And get nwny with it. The hetter voters didn't vote. That'H hew the bosses get by. Hepe suffrage will ehaiiRO that. Mothers with sons will vote. MkewNe wives with huibnnds. And these who want husbands Seber ones preferred by all. And that sleRan won't re. II will make no hit with them. He premlHed te make the stain wet. "Wet as the Atlantic ocean!" Se he did. He protects lawbreaklnR saloons. Let of us were dKRiisted. We had one heartfelt wish: Dip him In the Atlantic ocean. And held him there awhile. It might clear his head. I'ncle Sam may clear it, though. He happens te be bigger. Unless the Oulja does it first. I don't believe In the things. Never did but this was a party. Yeu can't wet-blanket n party. Se 1 sat In with the rest. "Who are jeu, spirit?" we asked. "Jacob (iedbey. late of Speen Hlvcr." The Oulja spelled out. "Oh, I knew about him!" some one said, "lie wrote abeiit libertarians." We asked If the wets would win. Ouija Miid. "Yes, for awhile." "What will happen then?" we usLcd. "A saving tragedy!" "What kind is that?" Oulja's reply was spooky : 'Wet as the Atlantic" "A life lest a state saved I" My lingers shook en the beard. I wai se excited. "What state?" "This one!" "Whose life, Oulja?" "In n drunken brawl he dies. Seme father's seu." "Whose son? l'leasc answer!" Hut here Oulja balked. "Suppose it were 'OUIt son? "Ask him that!" came finally. "Weed is wet as the Atlantic. Weed of many sons Is en his head. A cloud of them surround him. Measure for measure, as ye mete It shall be measured te you again." And there Oulja slopped. I hepe Uncle Sam saves them. The father from his wicked felly. The son from the same.

Have you seen Bonwit Teller & Ce.'s gay comer of novelties, perfumes, etc., arranged te make the selection of holiday gifts a simple matter consuming a minimum amount of time? There are fnscinating little ladies of bisque and china, arrayed in bouffant skirts of rose taffeta which conceal various conveniences, such as pin trays, handkerchief boxes, telephones, pincushions, etc., at $12.50 and neighboring prices. A rose brocade pincushion costs $2, a powder puff with a long handle for powdering the neck for the low-cut gown is $1,135, and handkerchief and glove boxes of blue and rose brocade are specially priced at $3 each. Glassed pin trays are $1.50 and a darling little bisque dell pincushion skirted in silk is selling specially for $1 instead of $1.50. Each of the dainty things and there are myriads mere has a bit of that inimitable Bonwit Teller atmosphere. The charming gift corner is just inside the deer at Thirteenth and Chestnut stieets. I have been searching the shops for cards of exquisite taste which yet de net cost a fortune. I have found them. Gee. Allen's shop, at 1214 Chestnut street, has an almost infinite number of cards, net one of which is in anything but the most approved taste, at prices which nie just as perfect 50c and $1.00 n dozen. I counted 75 different designs at 50c a dozen and GO designs at $1 a dozen. All are steel engraved, with just enough color for Yulctide cheer. The designs arc by some of the finest card artists in the country and each is new this season. The cards nie a third less than a similar quality at most ether shops and that is a saving worth considering. Allen's also have rcnllv beau tiful little calendars, neatly boxed for gifting, at the tiny sum of 20 cents, all hand colored just something, you knew, between a card and n gift unusual for the price. Umh, but that cold snap made us realize the cemflness of furs. Better see immediately about that precious fur coat or wrap which you are anticipating this winter. Ayers. nt 1330 Walnut, are at present having reductions' that the wise purchaser of fur will net miss, for the garments will ceitninly go up again in price ns the reason grows colder. I tried en several lovely fur things, among them a Hudsen heal coat, quite long, at S700, l educed from $800; n mole dolman, at $850, i educed fiem $1000, and a simply darling, vrrv full gray squirrel coat of 36-inch length, pi iced at $700 instead of $800. I must sav, tee, I was delighted with a ravishing little taupe squirrel ccatee. It is n model gaiment, se you may linve it for $550 instead of $750, while a taupe squirrel coat, 32 inches long, is reduced te $500 from $000. Thes" reductions will net Inst forever, se shop eailv at this tellable and satisfactory furiiei's if you would save some peifectly geed dellnis. It is surprising what lenlly vicious literntuie has been sold for children. The geed shop of B. F. Dewees, at 1122 Chestnut street, has determined te prevent this at all cepts. Consequently, this year they have installed a juvenile book coiner where only these books are te be found which contribute te the constructive enjoyment, the moral wclfare and the cultivation of youthful imag ination. Twe books I found theie especially ravished my ungiewn-up soul both weie fairy tales from France and one was pi iced at $1.35 and the ether at $5. One wn about n tenth of the size of the ether, but. rh, hew lovely they are in their very different wnvs. Eveiv girl should knew the life of Jean of Arc. Dew-ens' have n simply heavenly cepv, nt $3.50. I was mere than inter ested, tee, in n book of rhymes, finger plnvs, songs, lullabies etc.. for mother te amuse the cli'ld with.
