Ed Rickett, wife and two small
children live in "Coopertown," near

the sympathy of all who know him.
He is slowly but surely going blind.
He has had to lose his farm, team,
tools, and has barely a home left. For

Mrs. voorhees, has with rare fore
thought cautioned the only young lady
at Science Hall whose first name is
Emma of her probable fate if she don't
watch out. To recapitulate: l.. d.
Roath's housekeeper's name was EN-
ma and after some eight or ten years
probation she took him for good and
all. Then "Sine" Myers, two times
widower, had for housekeeper Miss
Emma Smith, of Alliance, whom some
thought would scarcely tolerate male
brute, fell under the spell of Emma
and married him. Now last week
"Al" Carlile, another widower, to dem
onstrate the theorem yet more fully,
induced his housekeeper for a year or
two to join him in holy wedlock and
of course her first name was Emma.
Is it any wonder Miss Emma Hick-
lin is put upon her guard as to any
widower who is looking for house
keeper?

for their health and are getting value
