FAT MAN'S STOCK IS HOW ABOVE PUR Chicago Physician Says Fat Men Make Best Husbands and Where Formerly the Stock Sold at 30 Cents With No Takers, the Dsmand Is Now Great.

Chicago, III., Dec. 21 "But if you 2nd a round faced man, nab him on the spot. Round faced men make the teat husbands." This advice passed out by a Chicago physician recently to ladies who are still waiting to be called for, was responsible for a remarkable rise In fat men's stock, which heretofore has been quoted at tJO cents with no takers. So great was the demand for Ihe balloon faced variety that unappropriated gentlemen with inflated countenances in several instances found It necessary to secure police protection. Change of sentiment m favor of the fat man was apparent in public places. Womn fought for the privilege of giving them their seats in the street cars while lean, unloveable citizens were forced to herd together like umbrellas In a corner. In the majority of cases the 6udden elevation from ridicule to reverence was accomplished without the obese individual losing toe fat head responsible for his preferment. "This popularity will put me in the Tepair shop." said a chubby party whose cheeks are so fat that they hide nvTcENTsloF EACH WEBSTER STOP

Teacher and Students Figure Cost to C, C. & L

TELLS HOW TO RUN ROAD.

Prof. A. L. Baldwin of the Webster high school and his class in physics have determined that it costs the Chicago, Cincinnati & Louisville railroad company five cents for each stop that paEsenger trains make at that place. The railroad company said that if Webster were made a station the cost would be greater than the resulting revenue. Prof. Baldwin, who understands thoroughly the workings of engines and the cost of maintenance, argued differently. Ho instructed his class to give the railroad company the benefit of every consideration in the running of its trains, such as the use of tnthracite coal at the present retail price. The result obtained by nearly every one of the pupils was the same.

his listeners. "I just sot caught in a petticoat plunge on Twenty-third Etreet, and before I got loose the women had cut the bu lions off my coat for souvenirs. A fat man's life is in danger now." ' It wasn't my fault that I didn't marry a full face." said the janitresa of an uptown apartment house. "When 1 married Mike his profile was so puffed out that the tears ran down his shoulders when he cried. It wasn't until his face began to tighten up like a tangerine that I knew I had a lemon. Then he confessed to me that he was suffering from an ulcerated tooth before we were married. I won't get fooled the next time."' "I'll never hear the end of that decision," said Casey, the cop at the bridge. "My wife's first husband had a head like a town clock, and she never tires talking about him. This will make her worse than ever." "You have the 'live bump' behind the ear which the Chicago doctor advocates." suggested the reporter. "It's only been there since Saturday night," taid Casey. "My head happened to be in the way of an iron pot which the missus was juggling."

Pittsburg, Pa., Dec. 21. Six bluecoated mites of special delivery boys

were "fired" by Postmaster Davis, of

the Pittsburg postoffice today in an effort to break up the epidemic of hazing that has wrought havoc with the force at the local office the past month. Last evening one of the smallest of the special delivery boys disappeared from the headquarters in the postoffice basement. There were many clues but the surest seemed to lead to Union Station. The postmaster's sleuths arrived there just after the Pittsburg-Cleveland express had pulled out, and 30 miles down the road the mail clerks rescued the boy from a sack that was supposed to contain newspaper mail. Then the story came out. A dozen lads, it seems, have made trips as far as the stations as prisoners in mail sacks. One boy was laid up for three weeks as the result of a broken arm, sustained in being pitched out of a mall wagon in a sack. "I was afraid to peach," he told the postmaster today, "for I didn't want to lose me job."
