SHE WANTS 10000
MEN TO WOO HER
And Will Take Her Choice
For Right One.
REMARKABLE MARRIAGE PLAN
Ola Tacoma Girl Who is Very
Pretty and Twenty
Years Old.
SEEMS CHEAP AT A DOLLAR

Not satisfied with resting on her
laurels as one of the very prettiest
girls in Tacoma, Miss Lavone Liv-
ingstone, who is 20 years old, made
an announcement to-day which
places her in the front rank of phi
lanthropists. Basing her announce
ment on the assumption that there
are at least 10000 men in the Unit
ed States each of whom is willing to
be married If he could get a wife for
81, Miss Livingstone has arranged a
chance marriage" for these 10000
for the not exorbitant price of 81
each.
Having lived in Virginia and in
Petoskey, Mich, before coming to
Tacoma, Miss Livingston says she
knows enough about men to feel
sure that 10000 of them willing
to give 81 for happy home are to
be found. How she viii decide on
the husband she does not say, but Il
it is some married man, the result
will be declared null and void. and
she'll start all over again. She has
been advised that in all probability
it will be some unmarried man who
will get her, as since this era Of high
cost of living set in, it is not every
married man that has an extra dollar
he can squander from an excess wife.
Foreigners will not be permitted
to enter. Miss Livingstone also re.
serves the right to reject the selec-
tion If he drinks too much, doesn't
go to church enough, eats with his
knife, uses perfume, thinks he is the
best poker player in his set, saves
letters girls have written to him or
knows nothing about that part of the
United States lying west of the west
side of Broadway.
If an acceptable candidate gets
her he will take her and $4,000.
Conceding that she will lose the New
York vote by her insistence on living
in Tacoma, Miss Livingstone adheres
to this determination. She hopes to
get some unspoiled son of the Gold
en- West. If the selection is so un-
gallant as to decline to marry, he will
forfeit his $4,000. On the other
hand, if he is not up to the plans and
specifications favored by Miss Liv-
ingstone, she thinks release from the
agreement for $4,000 will be a bar
gain, and she will forfeit her $4,000
and let the man go out and pick his
own wife.
She has many commendable quail
ties aside from her pulchritude. She
doesn't gossip. She'll let her hus-
band choose his own clothes. She
has no large family of professional
guests. She can cook and keep books.
She wears her own hair and doesn't
criticize women who don't. She
can run a sewing machine and read
novel at the same time, and when
this exercise gets too complicated,
she quits work on the novel and not
on the sewing machine.
Her friends think 81 is cheap for
her, but she believes in doing the
greatest possible good for the great
est number.-ITacoma Cor. New

MUST RECEIVE
At HARTFORD
If American Tobacco Com.
pany Takes Weed.
CONTRACTS ARE SIGNED UP
Embracing Pool of A. S. of E.
for Ohio, Mclean and
Hancock Counties.
DAVIESS COUNTY HEsITATES

The greensboro Inquirer says:
With the agreement that about
100000 pounds of tobacco in Ohio
county is to be taken care of and
delivered at Hartford by the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company, or by some
one designated by them, the pooled
crop of 1910 tobacco in the Ameri-
can Society of Equity of Mclean,
Ohio and Hancock counties, has been
sold. The deal was finally closed
and contracts signed Wednesday
morning between the sales COM
mittee of each of these counties and
the American Tobacco Company, c.
e. Martin, and the Imperial Tobacco
Company, the prices ranging from
SO to Sc for the leaf and Tugs and SO
for trash. The deliveries are to be-
gin on and after Monday, November
81, and be completed by June 1,
1911.
The negotiations for the sale be-
gan at meeting held at the Bell
Hotel which continued until a late
hOur Tuesday night, the Anal details
being closed and signed up at the
meeting held this morning at the
Office of the American Tobacco Com
pany. The sales committee was
composed of William E. Bibb, of Sac
ramento; A. B. Cabbage, Of Liver
more; Charles Thompson, of CAL
hoon; d. Forl, OF Hartford; w. NJ.
Arlington, OF Equality, and b. Spcn-
Ger, of Hawesville.
The sale includes about 100000
pounds of tobacco, but does not en-
brace the pool of Daviess county,
which is to be sold separately by a
committee composed of J. W. Dunn,
Price Baird and Emison Shaw.
The Mclean county tobacco was
sold to r. E. Massie for the Ameri-
can Tobacco Company and C. E.
Martin. Mr.. Massie is to receive g.
100000 pounds, to be delivered at
Calhoon, Livermore and Crudsville
Mr.. Martin is to receive about $780,
600 pounds to be delivered at Sac
ramento.
The Hancock county purchase of
100000 is to go to the Imperial,
and the deliveries are to be made at
Hawesville and Lewisport.
The Ohio county tobacco is to be
delivered at Cromwell and Hartford,
and If the American Tobacco Com
pany fails to take care of the Hart
ford delivery, the contract stipulates
that the sale of the pooled crop of
all three counties is to be declared
off.
The sales committee for the Da-
viess county pool, it is understood,
will not accept the price received
by the committees from the other
three counties, but will hold out for
the price as originally fixed by the
association. 1t is known that the
committee has been offered a slight
advance in the price of trash, over
that received by the other associa
tions, and when the committee meets,
the deal may go through on this
basis. 1t is almost a certainty that
the Home Warehouse Company will
receive a better price for the remain
ing tobacco pooled in Daviess coun-
ty and unsold than was received by
the other associations.

SUNFLOWER PHILOSOPHY.


always a disappointment.
A man can be perfectly natural
and not very satisfactory.
The man who doesn't amount to
much usually has his sign out.
If you get rich, you must do it in
spite of high taxes and hard times.
An old maid doesn't have a good
time until she has become reconcil-
ed.
The landscape affords about the
widest opportunity in art for rotten
effort.
If you don't amount TO much, nat
urally, make up for it by working
harder.
Some persons are so entertaining
and aggressive that they drive bus
mess away.
1t sometimes happens that a man
is his own monopolysw which is grind
ing him down.
When a man is crippled he usual
ly makes too much of it. If you are
hard hit, don't admit it.
Women pay heavier penalties than
men. 1t was probably so intended,
or it would be otherwise.
Nearly every mother says, when
my children marry l won't take sides
when they have trouble"
There are plenty of men as unim-
portant as the men in the chorus,
but they don't show it as much.
When the wife talks bass and the
husband talks tenor, We know who's
foreman in that house all right.
If your friends can't say anything
real mean about you they will at
least talk about your peculiarities.
Don't tell a story, even though
you know one; its narration will
simply remind your nearer of bad
one.
A woman never loves a man so
much she can't find fault with him
but she may love him so little she
won't.
There are number of cures for a
broken heart, but another steady
is probably the quickest and most
satisfactory.
When two people get married, one
of them generally wants to stay at
home every evening, and the other
wants to CAD.
Young girls like to say that they
don't want to hear anything about
the world" but all the same they
find out all they can.
A man who goes around with a
chip on his shoulder will finally en-
counter as big a fool as he is, and
there will be a fight.
Every man likes to have this said
of him: 'He is inclined to be peace
able, but when he does get mad, he
is a regular wild cat"
Any man who doesn't know any
better than to tell the story of his
wrongs, doesn't know any better
than to exaggerate them.
If you find fault with people, al
ways remember they will hate you
for it. People hate those who pick
at them, and they ought to.
About the only difference between
investing $50 in a meerschaum pipe
and sinking a similar sum in viii
low plume, is that smoking hurts
you.
When a mother has a grown son
who goes with girl, oldfashioned
people say to her.. 81 see you are
either going to put on a plate, OF
take one off,"
ANY mother could gain distinction
by asserting that her children in
herited their good traits from the
fathers side of the house, but nigh
ty few women care that much fol
fame.
A pretty girl is like a Congress
man; she tries not to show that she
doesn't know she is pretty, but she
can't do it, and a Congressman al
ways knows he's a Congressman

WORRY DOES KILL,
u Slowly but Surely Destroys the Cells
of the Brain,


Modern science has brought to light
nothing more curiously interesting
than that worry will kill. More re-
markable still. 1t has been able to de-
termine just how worry does kill
1t is believed by many scientists
who have followed carefully the
growth of the science of brain dis
eases that scores of the deaths set
down to their causes are due to wory
and that alone. The theory is SIM
pie one, so simple that any one can
readily understand it.
Briefly put, 1t amounts t. is: Wor-
ry injuries beyond repair certain cells
of the brain, and, the brain being the
nutritive center of the body, the other
organs become gradually injured. and
when some diseases Of these organs or
a combination of them arises death
finally ensues.
Thus worry kills. Insidiously, Ike
many other diseases, 1t creeps upon
the brain in the form of single, con
slant, never lost idea, and as drop
ping Of water over a period of years
will wear a groove in the stone, so
does worry gradually. imperceptibly
and no less surely destroy the brain
cells that lead all the rest, which are.
so to speak, the commanding officers
Of mental power, health and motion.
Worry, to make the theory still
stronger, is an irritant at certain
points, which produces little harm If
it comes at intervals or irregularly.
Occasional worriment the brain can
cope with, but the iteration and the
reiteration of one idea Of a dlsquiet-
ing sort the cells of the brain are not
proof against.
1t is as II the skull were laid bare
and the surface of the brain struck
lightly with hammer every few sec
onds with mechanical precision, with
never sign of a stop or the failure
of q stroke Just in this way does the
annoying idea the maddening thought
that will not be done away with. strike
or fall upon certain nerve cells, never
ceasing. diminishing the vitality of the
delicate organisms that are so minute
that they can be seen only under the
roscope-Journal of Physiological
Therapeutics.

but it is possible that before that dav
arrives he will be granted new trial,
Although it is possible, as has been
stated, that he will be granted new
trial, the district attorney of Washoe
County and also the Acknowledgement
do not think that it is very probable.
Frank Meyers, of the fir moi Nav

a long brief with the Supreme Court,
setting forth the bill of exceptions
that the Reno attorney will argue for
a new trial for this wife murderer i
One of the principal points upon
which Petty will base his claim for a
new trial is the fact that he had to !
undergo an examination by physicians
selected by the court. This was al
lowed by Judge John S. Orr against
