Statement of the Case.
Action by the National Printing & Engraving Company (a corporation), Winterburn Print Branch, plaintiff, against Samuel L.

*52Abstract of the Decision.
1. Corporations, § 516 * — when evidence shows business not incorporated. In an action to recover the purchase price of goods, evidence held to show that defendant was owner of the business by which the goods were purchased, that he was doing business under such name and that the business was not incorporated.
2. Municipal Court op Chicago, § 30* — when granting of leave to amend statement of claim is not ground for reversal. The fact that though leave was given to amend the statement of claim in a case of the fourth class in the Municipal Court of Chicago, which named several defendants who were not served with process, no amendment was actually made, is not ground for reversal.
3. Appeal and error, § 471* — when objection to statement elicited on cross-examination may not be raised. One who elicits a statement from a witness on cross-examination and does not object thereto cannot raise the objection on appeal.
William Friedman, for plaintiff in error.
P. F. Murray, for defendant in error.
