Chicago, which started “September Morn” on her way to fame, eagerly debated the question today. Incidentally, all Chicago that had time rushed to the display window of the Artist Guild. Neither the turtle nor the lady have any covering other than that Arthur Burrage Farwell, of the Law and Order | league, objected to the display, Holton Brown of New York is the! artiat | Club women, who failed to defend “September Morn,” rushed to} the defense of “Turtle Lady.” “September Morn” wa» looking at noth- ing except her public bath, but the turtle is evidently a student of As a principle there is nothing Impure in the nude,” sald Mra | William F.

NEW LONDON, Conn., Sept. 27.—*You will please come over to dinner at 2 o'clock.” The speaker Is an American, The polite Mexican answers: “Do you mean Mexican or English time?” You mean Eno lish time. So the Mexican will be at dinner between 2 and 3 p.m. But if, inadvertently, you should designate “Mexican | time,” the invited guest would appear any time bteween 2 p. m. | | | | AND YOUR DINNER MIGHT GET COLD | and 8 p, m. That is “Manana”—tomorrow—and it is so typical that a Mexican scorns another who realizes that “punctuality is the politeness of kings.” CHICAGO, Sept. 27.—The European war has caused such a ecare-| ity of horses in the United States that farmers who raise the adapt-| able Belgians, whose weight ranges from 1,200 to 1,500 pounds, making | them excellent cavalry and police mounts, are putting a high price on| the animals, which at the present time {s being accepted by the horse dealer While thousands of Percherons and Bolgians, weighing from 1,500 to 1,800 pounds, are at present employed in drawing cannon and am-| munition wag on the battlefields, they are not #0 commonly used! here as the lighter animal j A cross between Percheron stock and the American horses makes an almost ideal general-purpose animal, and a well-matched team will bring from $500 to $600, where formerly a team could be purchased at $200 to $2300. There is no importation of horses at this time, and, there fore, American farmers are short of the adaptable Belgians, which in part accounts for the increased value QUITE A MEAL, EVEN FOR STEWARDS | PITTSBURG, Sept. 27.—The Stewards’ club celebrated to- day with a Rhode Island clambake, at Keystone park, follow- ing the election of Frank A.
