CHICAGO’S POOR CINDERELLA HAS SESSION IN ‘4oo’ Working Girl Rates High at Army - Navy Ball. Bv United Prem CHICAGO, Dec. 3.—lrene Wilson, 19, might be called by some "Just a Door working girl." But Irene, the P- w. g., got an Invitation to an affair that many a blooded dowager and match-making mamma would have sold the family jewels to obtain. Irene was one of the 100 Chicago typists, stenographers, bookkeepers, clerks and salesgirls chosen at random by the official entertainment committee for the Army-Navy game, to dance and dine with visiting West Point cadets and Annapolis midshipmen in the city for the gridiron massacre. Limousines and Jewels - Limousines, matched pearls, gowns of spun gold and silver—these were the order of the evening. But Irene went to her big night on the elevated in a dress that she made her- 1 self, and had such a good time that I many an anemic gal of the “400” I envied the lilt of her dancing feet and the sparkle in her eyes. Irene handles a switchboard in the Standard Oil offices here, but she found that with America’s student fighting men you don't have to be in the social register and be heiress to millions to have a good time. There was no such thing as class snobbishness. Via the Elevated Irene hadn't even heard of the 100 "blind-date” girls being invited in case some lonely lad in uniform had no dancing orUdlnlng partner. But Irene did not look this gift of the gods in the mouth. She dashed home from work evenings, made her dress, bought her elevated

Pm Most Grateful Every Month Here’s glorious news for longsuffering womankind! To every woman who periodically has suffered pain. Menstruation need no longer l)e painful. And it is science that is speaking! Specialists have developed a tiny tablet called midol. It’s a simple thing, utterly harmless to a girl of fourteen, but it brings relief in five to seven minutes. And is effective twelve hours or longer! Midol Is NOT a narcotic. It has no effect whatever on heart or nervous system. It acts directly on those organs affected by menstruation. They function normally, as they should, but the pain is banished. Complete relief —yes, perfect comfort —follows midol. Your druggist has midol for 40 cents, In a slim aluminum box to tuck in your purse. JAi^oV Takes Pain Off the Calendar

Jerry Beard driving “General.”

Girls, here’s a .chance for an oldfashioned buggy ride. Jerry Beard, R. R. B, Box 386, comes into town every Saturday, all the way from Clermont with his pony, and he says that a couple of Indianapolis girls already have said they would go riTUng with him if he came when the moon was up. With an oil can on the back of the buggy which the shaggy brownhaired pony named “General” pulls through the gas-scented downtown streets, Jerry defies all traffic and receives remarks from motorists

There was so much to see —the entire social register was there in gleaming jewels and little else. Then C'ame the Cadet And then it happened. A big stalwart cadet bowed low. "May have the next dance?” he asked. Irene, as she recounts, thought she would swoon. “He was like a Greek god,” she says. “And we danced. Oh, it seemed forever.” They floated . along, little Miss Irene in her. one party frock that she had earned every stitch of and helped make herself. Not all the 100 “blind-date girls” had a full dance program. But Irene did. Maybe it was the dress made by herself that did It. One cadet or midshipman after another, big and handsome, bowed and asked for the next one, or the next. Irene danced past bowers of banked debutantes hopefully waiting for a uniform with a manly arm inside. Votes of the Army “I had so wonderful a time,” she gasped. ‘‘lt was heavenly. I have never seen anything so bright and grand. “And, do you know, I liked the Army uniforms much better. The Navy uniforms were rather plain. There wasn’t sq much of romance about them. But the Anhy—oh my! “Yes, the women were fine, too. There were a few, of course, who stood back a bit hut no one was a bit snobbish., And as for the cadets and midshipmen, they are the truest and finest sort of gentlemen one could ever hope to meet.” Then came 12 o’clock. Cinderella went home. Today Irene is at the switchboard again, and she says that she hopes that the cadets and “middies” who danced with her all will become generals or admirals and win wars and have wonderful wives and be happy.

BOYCOTT RESULTS FROM PICTURE OF KING ON STAMPS Republicans in Prussia Are Stirred by Recent Action. Hu T nited Prens BERLIN, Dec. 3.—Newly Issued postage stamps, bearing the picture of Frederick the Great, most famous eighteenth century King, has aroused the ire of republicans. They have accentuated the sometimes dormant feud between monarchists and republicans and have made the trivial business transaction of buying stamps a matter of high political significance. Republicans have decided to boycott the “Fredericus” stamp, as it is popularly called. They are willing to make personal sacrifices for their conviction and will devote 100 per cent more work to stamping their letters. The Fredericus picture is printed on denomination, the postal fee for a domestic letter. Yet republicans ate bent on sticking on their letters two fivepfennig stamps—which bear the picture of Schiller —rather than to “aid monarchlßtic propaganda by disseminating dally hundreds of thousands of stamps with the picture of a King.” Monarchists, too, are in a quandary. They have hailed the issue of this particular stamp as a victory

and want to make an extensive use of it for propaganda reasons. They have not yet decided on a course to counteract the republicans' boycott. But all that is left to them as a remedy seems to be to abandon the writing of postal cards and pour all their correspondence into letters. The only alternative to this procedure would be to put ten-pfennig stamps on fivepfennig iKistnl cards and thus unduly fill the coffers of the republic's postoffice department. MINER IS HOOKED’ IN RACE SWINDLE Kind Friend Beats Him of Life Savings. Ru Timru Svrrial REGINIA, Saskatchewan. Dec. 3. —The old “racetrack” swindle has separated 62-year-old Frank Kaiifeize from the savings he had accumu lated by twenty-six years of toil in the Alaska mining fields. Kalifeizo, returning to the West Crtnst from Montreal, told of arriving in Vancouver from Dawson City, intending to buy a home w.th the SII,OOO he had accumulated. In the course of his attempts to find n suitable location he oncoi ' -red an affable stranger named W alker.

Meanwhile, he suggested, Kalifeize might bet on another race. The miner drew out his savings and gave the money to Walker. A day later Walker met Kalifeize with the information that, unfortunately, he had picked the wrong horse. He bought the miner a ticket to Montreal and promised to meet Kalifeize there. But the engagement was not kept and the Yukon veteran is on
