ed, how often the wife may attend
| social functions without being scowled
at-and even fixes limit to the num-
Der of possible future Hardings.
BY observing in minutest detail the
terms of this remarkable document
Harding and his third wife have al
ready enjoyed two months of life to-
gether without a cloud appearing in
their matrimonial sky.
Mrs. Harding Explains.
When Isaiah asked me to marry
him." explained Mrs. Harding the 9th.
err day, Il told him that l didn't feel
like trying matrimony again unless
we could agree on some things that
had troubled me before. Isaiah said
he'd had troubles. too. and he fell
| right into the idea. That was how
| we happened to plan it."
By the terms of the contract Mr..
and Mrs. Harding agree, in the first
place, that they will live together as
man and wife for fifteen years. This
term of years was agreed upon after
some difficulty, as Harding wished to
make the contract extend twenty-five
years. Mrs. Engelbrecht argued.
however, that fifteen years was long
enough for experimental purposes,
and Harding came to her terms. else
there would have been no wedding.
Fifteen Year Contract.
If they prove unhappy at the end
OF fifteen years their welded life
terminates there and then without
any other proceedings as to the courts.
Furthermore, either party has the
right at the time to declare the con-
tract null and void. If within the
fifteen years either becomes dissatis-
fled he or she must obtain a separa-
ton through the courts in the usual
legal form.
| Both Harding and Mrs. Englebrecht
owned valuable farm land, he in DIAL
las county and she near Des Moines.
1t was necessary to make careful ar
engagements for the control of these
properties.
BY the contract they cut their prop
erty valuation in two and each set
ties half on children by former mar
riages. Harding has son and a
daughter and the wife has two sons
and a daughter. Their personal prop
erty is likewise divided among the
children.
In speaking Of children, it may not
be amiss to mention that contract
provides definitely and stringently
that there shall be but three little
ones born to the new Harding family.
The penalty for the violation of this
rule Is not set down in the document,
but it is presumed that 1t might be
regarded as grounds for separation
at the end Of the fifteen years.

Remark Cured Hank,

Hank Brown, of Fargo, the prosper
GUS contractor, might have become
o. famous driver Of fast horses had
he not attended racing meet back
in the early days. There was a large
crowd out and Budd Doble was in
the grand stand.
Hank had a horse that he had ell
tered in the two-something class.
The horse was big, rangy fellow,
with not too much speed, but Hank
thought he was the goods.
All the horses except Hanks had
passed the grand stand neck and
neck on the first half. 1t was a beau
tiful race. Trailing behind about 20
rods came the big horse, Hank urg-
ing him on. When he was in front of
the grand stand Doble stood up and
yelled at the top of his voice:
Take the first turn to the left,
Hank, all the others have gone that
way"
Hank drove his horse to the barn.
