MOST PENURIOUS MAN “When a guy goes with a girl and tries to show her a good time and spends all his hard-earned money on her, ana then she goes with another fellow, she ought to pay the other fellow for what he spent on her,” says a Rockford, (111.) dispatch. This is the philosophy of Charles Crase of Freeport, who made out a “cost system" for love-making and presented the same to Miss Myrtle McMinn, a local belle. The bill shows the following indebtedness: Dear Friend Myrtle: I hope you i long and happy life and many of them, also for your new fellow. You got to TREAT YOURSELF AND AND FRIENDS AT “The OAK” The only soft drink parlor of its kind in the city. That’s It, Edleweiss and Lcrgo on ice and draught.
