f OVER THE "LITTLE HOUSEWIFE" KEQEETS HER METROPOLITAN. SHOPPING. Lobars $1.23, Half Day's Time, and Temper on $1.55 Proportion Swears Off on Trading lthout I'reylons Local CnnTRsn. "Yes," said the Little Housewife ruefully, Tve done the last bit of shopping I propose to do In Chicago until I've thoroughly canvassed my home town." The Little Housewife sighed as one, who, although having suffered, had gained by the experience. It was at one of those impromptu social gatherings which occur by reason Of one caller "running into" another at her hostess' home. Then another caller drops in and another, as will sometimes happen and what was intended to be a formal call on the part of each of the visitors, resolves itself through coincidence into a "party." The latest newcomer had Just entered the cosy Bitting room in the home of a certain popular Hammond matron, as the Little Housewife gave utterance to her new conviction on the shopping proposition. "Why this loyal resolve?" queried the newcomer, settling herself in a comfy chair. "It's a long story," answered the Little Housewife doubtfully. Those present chorused their interest. "Well," began the Littla Housewife, thus encouraged, "you know I had set my heart on one of the those dear little ted riding hood things for baby." "What's that?" interrupted the young mother whoso small daughter is the age of the-Little Housewife's youngest. "O, they had their day before your time. I wore one in my childhood and I understand they are to be the thing again. They are a little quaint cloth affair, tailored to look very prim, a close-fitting cap and finished with a little cape, a few inches long. The cape may be made with an inverted plait behind and the little dud ties under the chin with wide and ample bows and has big crush rosettes on each side where the ties fasten. It la of bright red and lined with soft China silk. "But that is not what I started to tell you. I needed some broadcloth for the little garment and knowing the color was not easy to get, I made a special trip to Chicago to look for It. I went to six stores before I found the shade I wanted and had to pay 95 cents for three eighths of a yard, at the rate of J2.B0 a yard. I was eure I could get the bit of white silk for lining for less in Hammond than I could in Chicago and anyhow it was late when I finally found the cloth, so I determined to get the silk at home. "The next day I went in to the Lion store for the lining and sewing silk took a sample of the red cloth along to match the silk and as I was purchasing my yard of China silk I happened to see a bolt of red cloth almost at my elbow. It was marked 83 cents, and the placard set forth the fact that the material had been reduced from 1.25. I pulled 'out my sample and put it along side the bolt of red cloth, and the shade was exactly the same. "I am not going to claim that the material was as good as what I paid 12.50 a yard for, but It was good looking stuff, and plenty good enough for Martha Elizabeth's hood. I figured it out that I paid Just $1.53, including railroad fare and street car fare, for a bit of cloth that I might have bought In Hammond for 32 cents, thereby losing $1.23 and a half a clay's time to say nothing of my temper, by the transaction." "That explains why you got that Bilk for your waist in Hammond the r ether day," put In the young mother. "No It doesn't," asserted the Littla Housewife, "I bought that silk in Chicago." And then the tea was served. MISS RUTH SCHAACK AND DENNIS L. CAPvLAN WED. Event a Surprise to Many Hammond Friends of tbe Young People Only Relatives Attend Ceremony "Which Took Place In Edgenatrr.

BACK FROM THEIR LONG DRIVE.

Mr. and Mrs. W illiam Taylor of Lorrell Return from California After Eight Month's Absence. Mr. and Mrs. William Taylor of Lowell and their little daughter, Edith, have returned from their visit to California. They drove to the coast in a wagon especially fitted up for the purpose, and although eight months have passed since they started out and their return was made by rail, many of their adventures on their westward trip are still vivid in their minds. While manv of these adventures were pleasant and exciting there was one, the critical illness of the little daughter, that cast a gloom over a large part of the journey. After some time, however, she rallied and the trip was completed without any serious incidents. In their company going -west were Martin Palmer and family, who. upon their arirval on the coast located in Oregon where they still are and where Mr. Palmer holds a good position. The Palmers have not yet set a time for their return. That the overland trip was pleasant for man and beast was evidenced by the fact that the Taylor family horse was as frisky as a colt upon Its arrival in California. It was sold there but Mr. Taylor would gladly pay twice the sum he received for the recovery of the animaL BELATED CHRISTMAS GIFT. L. J. Haefer and his sister, Mrs. Jos. Wolf, were the recipients of a belated Christmas present Saturday and it came very much as a surprise. The present consisted of bank checks worth $1,500 which was sent them by their rather In Hancock, Mich. NO LOBBYISTS ON FLOOR. It appears that there wlll.be less lobbying in the general assembly tills session than for a good many years. The disposition of the officers of the two bodies and of the legislators seems to be that none but members, employes and newspaper men shall be permitted on the floor. In former sessions the floor has been overrun by men who wished to get the ear of the lawmakers and their votes for such and such a measure. Their presence has caused confusion and embarrassment. NEW MERCHANT PATROL. Otto Huebner, who Is a brother-in-law of Alderman John Pascaly will, beginning tomorrow, take the beat as merchant policeman which was filled by Officer Peter Geib up to the time of his sickness. Mr. Huebner visited the various merchants this morning who have occasion to employ a night watchman and made their acquaintance. The beat which former Officer Geib traveled was entirely too large for one man and it may be that there will be two merchant patrol instead of one to watch the stores at night. NEW APPORTIONMENT BILL. The Indianapolis Sun says that there will be a congressional apportionment bill Introduced at this session of the legislature. One of the districts to be changed is the Tenth. Tippecanoe and Warren counties are to be shifted to some district owing to a factional fight in the district. The county of Starke Is to be aded to the Tenth district. CARD OF THANKS.
