Consider and forget not thine own

The heart of the envious man is gall

The big rise in prices is due TO the

port
Mrs. Ives sent for a representative
of the News Monday evening. to WHOM
she made a statement. She said that
the informtion received Monday that
she had been deserted by her husband
was a great shock. as there had been
nothing whatever to indicate that he
had contemplated any such action. She
said. further that when absent from

ways written every day, and that when
he failed to do so on this trip, she
became uneasy. fearing that he was
