GIRLS, HERE'S A RICH
MAN WANTS A WIFE

INDIANAPOLIS, May 15.--Col. John
H. Worth, Joplin, Mo-, millionaire,
though somewhat uncultivated, is re-
liable and trustworthy. He is about
so years old, has no bad habits and
everything he wants except a wife, and
says here Is here to select one
my habits are exemplary" he said,
"and any Indiana girl who marries me
need not fear she will ever be abused.
never could tolerate the drunken
husband who beats his wife-although
no doubt a lot of women deserve beat
ing. 1 should prefer ruling her with
kindness. 1 once saw the play The
Tanning of the Shrew,' in which the
husband did 1t with a horsewhip. / do
not agree with that proposition. I do
not believe that woman can become
exasperating enough to have horse
whip used on her. I should not do that.
I do not want cook, sewing girl or
washerwoman. I want q sweet. woman
ly woman whom 1 can love and care
for"
Col Worth originally was an Indiana
man. He was reared in Rushville.
About twelve years ago he went west
and at Manitou Springs, Colo, he met
a rich Colorado widow. She was inter-
ested In mining at joplin, Mo. Worth
married her and she took him to Jop-
lin and started him in the mining busi-
ness. Five years ago she died, leaving
him vast fortune.
His quest became known and he has
besiesed all day by women. The hotel
managers say there have been fifteen
or twenty there to see him. They all
live here and were respectable appear
ing women, we'll dressed and not over
ly pressing in their demeanor. In addi
tion to them there came telephone calls
from Marion, Logansport, Noblesville
and other Indiana cities.
BY telephone he received an invita-
tion to meet a woman in front of the
city library, directing him to wear
white carnation. He did SO, and after
q long conversation they went away to-
gether. He has made no selection and
will continue on exhibition for several
days. One of the Claypool managers
says: "I will cash his check for $4,000.

"I'm a quick lunch fiend," she TOLD

Today her physician, DR.. Frank w.
Lambdin, declared the cause OF her
death had been traced to quick lunches.
He added that so per cent of the deaths
by suicide in Chicago are caused oy tne
quick lunch habit. Other Chicago pny-
sicians concurred in this statement.
1.-THE quick lunch = the food and the
system - drive to suicide" was the
declaration.
Charges by the physicians that there
were more victims of the quick lunch
habit in Chicago than in any other city
were borne out by the managers or the
eating places, who boasted that they
could feed more people than could the
managers of any restaurant in the
world.
Internationally the inability to di-
gest food causes many suicides in Chi
cago. 1t is just as certain that quick
lunches result in many cases or indt-'
gestion," said DR.. w. A, Evans, Chi
cago's health commissioner.
at is certain that hundreds of Chi
cago suicides can be traced to the
quick lunch habit Those of a nervous
temperament are especially likely to

and morose. Their mind is affected and
they destroy themselves" said DR.. N.

CLEVELAND, June 15.-The citizens

she read 's2 Weekly American" clear

Geological factor in heredity was be-

the Conneaut hen would be apt to take
a mental impression from scrap of
paper in her nest and transfer it to thu
inside of the egg shell she laid" said

might have been followed

The crest Room" idea.

Forty merchants OF Baker City
have agreed to give 81. so
per mouth each for the next two
years, for the maintenance of a
rest room for farmers. Here is a
movement we'll worth emulating
bv merchants of all cities and
towns where the farmers trade is
particularly sought after.
Merchants who know every
nook and corner of the town can
hardly realize how lost country
people feel when they go to town.
They are entirely out of their
element, and most of them are
like fish out of water.
They have no place to sit down
and rest and no place to meet
each other, no place TO take care
of the demands OF nature. They
wear themselves out carrying
their wraps and purchases around
and as result are in a great hur-
ry to get out of town again.
Make it easy for them to rest,
and make them feel at home, and
they will stay longer, spend more
n'oney and come oftener, says
the Oregon City Enterprise with
truth.
The rest room, if properly
ma naged, will take all th dread
out of a trip to town. and once
your country people cease dread
ing a trip to town they will come
ottener, and as they become more
and more in touch with city ways
their wants will spread out over
wider range of goods, and they
will become better customers.
