Thus the walls are divided into rectangular spaces, and the decorative effect of a good paper is ephanced. A plain paper has the dignity of a panel when o used. For Public Safety. The mayor of the city and his cabi- net were solemnly considering the problem of safety in the streets. The police commissioner had stated his views and others proposed various legislative measures to control vehicle dtivers and pedestrians. Finally it was the turn of the corporation coun- sel to speak. “I think,” he sald with judicial calm, “that what we need is an ordinance to make the giris wear long- er skirts.

My little niece had been made happy by being asked to be a ring bearer at a friend’s wedding. A few evenings later we noticed her looking with a speculative eye at her older sister and the young man who was calling, and then she announced with a pleased expression: “I expect he will maybe ask me to be in his program, too."— Chicago Tribune.
