If you are a student nt the University of Chicago, you patronize the nearest llllliig station; the campus Is supplied with these quite as freely as the Lin coln highway with filling stations for the tourist. A penny In the slot ope rates the machine, and enubles the owner of the most voracious pen to ap pease the thirst of his Instrument. The machine works with self-filling pens and with the old style that fills from a droppers-provided the user has his own dropper. The dropping of a coin and the turning of the handle re lenses the Ink from the reRervolr. and the fluid flows Into the right hand well, whence It enn be sucked up by the pen Itself or by the dropper. A slot In the upper left hand corner of the outfit contains a wiper with which any damage done by spilling or slopping may be repaired. If one drink turns out not enough, a second penny will, of course, turn the trick.

The Fairchild Donation By JANE OSBORN ( by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) 'Miss Monroe I say, Miss Monroe I" George Fairchild wag Impatient as he stood at the threshold of his office about to depart for a luncheon at a business men's club. "H'm?" absently h'med Miss Mon roe, looking up from a folder that was apparently more absorbing than her employer at the moment. "My, that must be Interesting," George Fairchild said a little testily. "Listen, please, to what I have to say, and don't forget. I don't expect to be back until three or four. In the meantime some boys will come over from the Boys' club. They are fitting up their new headquarters and they've made an appeal for old furniture and pictures and things. No one will be home at the house my aunt is s.tlll at the shore and It's Hannah's day out. "I went over things last night in my rooms and I put some things in the hall between the bedroom and my study. They are things that are pretty battered and I'll never want them again. Glad to get rid, of them, In fact. "In the other hall, from the study to the mala corridor, there are some things to go to the repair man. Here's the key to the house, and if the repair man rings up and says he wants the things, lock up here and go over and show him what to take and when the boys come with a truck take them along and show them their things. That's perfectly clear, isn't It, Miss Monroe?" Tim-hum," said Miss Monroe with lagging attention as she took the keys offered by her employer. "What's got Into you?" asked George. "Ever since I've been run ning for mayor you've seemed so alfo-sent-mlnded Just when I need your help and sympathy most," There seemed to be something of boyish dis appointment In this complaint not quite in part with Mr. Falrchlld's re lations as employer. But If Laura Monroe noticed It she did not show it. "Maybe It's the weather," offered Laura. "You're sure you understand and you won't forget the keys?" "I understand all right," was Laura'i rejoinder, and as George Fairchild closed the door she delved even deeper Into the map that unfolded from blue leather cover. The map that proved so absorbing showed the various electoral divisions and ward boundaries of the city, with the voting population of each section numbered In by hand. Laura had borrowed It from a lawyer friend of Mr. Fairchild, who supposed It was George who had asked for It. And now Laura was doing what Fairchild bad avoided doing all along going over the ground of the city step by step figuring out to a nicety the votes that would be cast in each district for her employer. She laid hands on paper and pencil beside her desk, drew a rough little diagram, Jotting down some figures, did some lightning calculation In her active young brain, and then sat mus ing with the map open in her lap. She was not entirely optimistic. Then the door opened and two young boys of sixteen or so shambled In, awkwardly doffing caps and edging to the wall before speuklng. "Mr. Fairchild said he had some thing for us," they said. "We're out with a truck should we go over to his house to get them?' Laura explained that she would go with them. "tou don't want to to sit In the truck with us, do you?" grinned one of the boys. "It's Just an old truck you know without any seats. TJs boys are Just sitting on the bottom." "Of course I want to go with you,' said Laura with a smile. "You wouldn't want me to walk, would you? And If I start to slip out, I guess you boys can manage to hold me In?" "Sure thing." "You bet," from the two boys. "Mr. Fairchild Is so Interested in your club," Laura fibbed on the trip to the old Fairchild homestead on the outskirts of the city. "Ho was telling me about your plans wants to come around and visit you some night, After he's mayor maybe you'll want to have him come and make l speech.' "He'll never be mayor," was the ver dict of the youngest boy, looking very wise. "He's all right but he Isn'i pulling any votes In the Sixth ward or In the Third. Us fellows knows. I'm sorry, If he's your boss, but, honest. Isn't he stuck up? Now, he wouldn'i a done thing tike this I mean rid ing over In this truck with us." "It's Just exactly wjiat he would have done," lied Laura. "Why, he the most un-stuck-up person I know and you can Just tell those men up In the Sixth and Third wards that said bo. I guess the poor girl that has to work for him must know as well as any one." Laura deftly used the keys at the Fairchild door and led the gang of four boys they would need all hands to move the things up the wide old stairs. She made a quick Inspection of the collection of furniture In the two passageways. "If there's anything In that bunch there that you want," she said, point ing to the group that Mr. Fairchild had picked out for his donation, "you can have It, but It's mostly rubbish, But here are some nice piece this library table and these easy chairs and this big reading lamp and this lounge and and, yes, he said to let you take this set of Dickens, If you like do you toys like Dickens?" "Gosh, do wel" said one of the boys. "Say, we'll eat that alive. Gee, but this Is swell furniture. Fairchild is some prince here, boys, let's give three cheers for Fairchild, the future mayor I" And the lofty ceilings of the old mansion resounded with the quavering but lusty cheers from the young quartet. Laura detained the boys after their last trip upstairs. "Come on Into the pantry," she said. 'Mr. Fairchild said there was a cake or something. The cook's out, but he had her leave It for you thought maybe you'd be hungry." Greatly to Laura's relief she found freshly made chocolate cake In the pantry made, to be sure, for George and some political cronies he expected after dinner but Laura cut Into It bravely and then poured out four glasses of milk from a quart she found In the refrigerator. "Come on, let's sit down In the din ing room and have a real spread," she suggested and when they had as sembled she lifted her glass of water there wasn't milk enough to go gen erously around and proposed a toast to her employer: "The man who Isn't stuck up," and this refrain echoed through the rooms of the old house. Laura let the boys out of the house and then remained only long enough to wash the dishes and put the dining room to rights. She had never 'been Inside the Fairchild house before and she was tempted to make a little tour of Inspection, but she was also eager to be back In the office. She had Just time to take her place at her desk and to settle back com fortably In her chair when her em ployer returned. "The boys came," she said, "and, goodness me, I think I may have made a mistake. Did you say to give them the things In the corridor between the main hall and the library?" "Great Scott, no!" "Didn't you say something about giving them that set of Dickens?" "Lord, no those boys wouldn't have any use for Dickens." "The boys that I saw would and, oh, Mr. Fairchild," said Laura with a little tremble In her voice. "I am so ashamed of myself. I gave them the wrong things. It was all my fault. But they were so appreciative and they gave three cheers for Fairchild the future mayor the man who Isn't stuck up. I'm sorry I'll pay for the furni ture and Hbooks." "Those boys come from the Sixth and Third wards," said Fairchild. They aren't cheering for me. Those wards are going against me, sure thing. That's why I didn't want to waste any really good furniture on that club house of theirs, Don't you see, Miss Monroe?" Laura let her pretty head hang. Then a large tear trickled down one cheek. George sprang to her side, hesitated a moment, then laid a strong arm on her shoulder. "Miss Monroe, Laura whatever yon did Is all right. Oh, I can't keep It from you any longer. I love you that's what makes It so hard, your In difference and your Inattention to everything I say. If you cared for me at all, you would be Interested, Laura, are you absent-minded because you're thinking of gome one else?" Laura did not answer. She quickly wiped the tears away and straightened her shoulders. "I'm sorry," she said. "But you mustn't talk that way now not until after the election. Meantime just for my sake, don't tell anyone It was my mistake about your donation to the bovs. I liked them so much of course, I don't understand politics, but I know they are all your friends." "They're not voters," said Fairchild conclusively. "No, but their fathers are and more than that their mothers are," said Laura stoutly. But George only smiled Incredulously. Then election came and Fairchild, 'Talrchlld, who was never stuck up," "Fairchild. the working boys' best friend," was elected. He had a phenomenal victory In the Sixth and Third wards. No one of his party had ever made a showing In that section, and It was that fact, said everyone, that swung the election away from his Influential opponent, The next day Ceorge and Laura met as usual In the office. Both were very tired, but they were not late. "You know, I've been thinking,' said George. "I've een wondering, Laura, whether maybe after all you aren't a better politician than I. owe this whole victory to you and now you've got to marry me before I go Into office, to show me how to live up to the fine reputation you've given me." And Laura said she would. Way it Goes. "Ilear you had In an efficiency ex pert." "Yep." "What docs an efficiency expert dor "Well, he comes In and looks your establishment over.
