A Berlin correspondent writes:

A Berlin correspondent writes: "a
workman sold his lawfully-wedded
wife to a small tradesman, or rather
lent her for two years, at the moderate
price of l mark. The tradesman, well
satisfied with his bargain, lived hap
PLY with the woman. At the end ol
--S%75v- fifteen months the husband
WATER demanded an additional Is
l QUEEN marks, asserting that in
s-S s34@;--s handing over his wife he
had overlooked the fact that she had
an excellent set of teeth. The trades
man, however, would not bulge a SIM
gle pfenning beyond the original mark
until the husband went into court.
The wife was then ordered to return
to her lord and master, who evident
ly values her as an Arab values an ell
cphant--for her ivory.

Charles Burns, a tramp who was ar
rested in Pickens county, Ca, has
been indicted by the grand jury of the
Federal Court at Atlanta for counter
feiting. The case is a peculiar one.
Burns neither manufactured
WAFER nor raised money, but re-
QUEEN duced genuine $40 and $40

silver by applying chemical. Since
there seems to have been anything but
an intention to defraud the govern

will not hold.
