The average person who rides on the trolley cars does not realise the effort involved and the time it takes to change over at short notice from the open type of car to the closed, in the event of a storm coming up during the day. The cars are naturally dis- tributed all over the lines and should there be occasion to make a change, it is necessary for the inspectors to have the cars returned to the barns. switched to side. il'acks. and the kind - desired sent out in their places.

Johnson. who is a mighty popular mail up ’in Minnesota and for several years has been considered as timber for the r‘weeidentisl nomination by a large , wing of the Democratic party, has got- ‘ ten himself in quite a. warm situation through his appeal to the West to overthrow Eastern domination. nor his fodliah talk about tile West throwing oi! the Shackles of the East, .says the Hartford Couraut. Governor John A. Johnson gets another rebuke ‘v—this time from the Omaha Bee, which is considerably nearer the setting sun that he is. It bids him remember that of the too men thus far nominated for the presidency by the Republican party only two—Blaine iuld Roosevelt—have been Easterners and the West whoop- ‘ ed It up for them a whole lot more up roariously than the Atlantic seaboard did. Since 1856 the Republicans of the Bait have had the speaker-ship of the cries for sixteen years. and the Rio- pisblleans of the West for eighteen ‘years.

Judge Crows. who tried the chauffeur. is quoted as saying: . “That’s just like a woman. if it takes a woman as long as that to get her pocketbook before going to a they tre she ought to stay at home." Turning to Russ the judge said: "it takes p woman quite a long time to ‘ get ready to?” to the theatre. You might have known that and stopped your engine. “Women take too much time in dressing and primping," motioned the judge. "They have no idea of the in- convenience lt causes their husbands, friends and admirers. A woman has no regard for time; she will take half an hour to adjust three hairpins. "'l’li be ready in five minutes.’ is her usual greeting to her escort. She will then go upstairs and take an hour using herself up. She fails to realise that the man who is spending his money to show her a good time may have a tuicab waiting for which he is paying by the hour. Her slowness causes the couple to get to their des- tination late, and if it is the theatre they have to pay high prices for seats or take inferior ones. She will then complain if her escort is in a bad linin- or—l don‘t blame him. "Even married women frequently force their husbands to out cold thesis by keeping the repast waiting while they primp up. "Women should be made to dress by the clock, the same as a man “0| ks They should run on schedule time.
