N old Greenock salt applied for employment aboard a vessel, but, having no discharge pa- pers, he was rejected in favor of a younger man, whose written creden- tialp proved satisfactory to the cap- tain, Subsequently, however, the captain was unable to obtain a crew of fully qualified seamen, and at the last moment he signed on the Greenock man, The first day out he was put to work washing down the deck, while his rival with the discharge papers was perched aloft with a bucket, ad@ing a coat of tar to the rigging. ‘The vessel gave « lurch and the un- fortunate seaman dropped over the side, bucket and all.

Fritzi Scheff, Casino Star, Carries “‘Home’’ in 12 Trunks —_—— Everything’s There, from Cushions to Real Chairs, to Turn Road Hardships Into Solid Comforts! 18S FRITZI SCHEFF knows what she wants when ehe wants it. Never to be caught without the soft, homey things which make a fiat seem human, she turned inventor and mapped out a home that goes into twelve trunks, She is now playing at the Casino Theatre in a comedy with music called ‘Pretty Mra. Smith,” and praying that the day will never come when she will have to take to the trunks and the highwaye—but that day always does come, eo the prima don 8 begun to take time to reduce the road of its hardships. When the call to move does sound Fritsi will turn her pretty home into the twelve especial trunks. They are all measured and spaced for this purpose. In different compartments will be her gowns for street and stage wear. ‘Then will come the other things which go to make up a correct and fashion- able toilette, Miss Scheff figures that four trunks will do for this depart- ment of her establishment. The re- it she uses for the home- . She will take her own bedding and sofa cushions and piano covers and bric-a-brac, Her personal cooking utensils and her folding chairs and tea sets and a dosen or more unique little things which give a homo the individual expression of its owner. These have all been carefully de- signed.

We only Vive our allotted span on this earth. The theatre and hotels take up the Xreatest part of the time T'm going to be allowed to live. If 0 much time Foust be spent inside these dreary of places, why not give it some forethought and make them habitable. It adds to the joy of living and it takea the sting out of travel. I know plenty of big men who #pend the greatest parts of their lives in plain, matter-of-fact offices and who have really gorgeous homes. It seems to me they ought to divide it up a bit and lavish some of the luxury on their offices. They do their greatest work and spend most of thelr time in them anf it would help, if they thought in actual hours how much of their lives are served out in such environments. That's how I got the fdea of making my home fit into twelve trunks, and, though it may seem a little expensive, when you come to think how sorely we need these Uttle reminders of comfort I think it ts money well invested.” 2 Misfit Expression.
