THAT WAS THE LAST STRAW
MANY Women There Are Who Will
Understand Just Why Long-Suf-
fering "Worm" Turned.

Several years ago an Atchison cou-
Pile were living happily together. The
community was shocked one day when
the wife applied for a divorce and got
it. The story of the divorce has come
out. 1t seems that the wife went into
the kitchen and Shaved" all day. She
made bread, pies, cakes, cookies and
pork and beans. She boiled a tongue,
made a potato salad, stuffed eggs,
made custard and brown bread.
When her husband came home at 6
o'clock in the evening he found her
dressed up And on the table was
cold tongue, pork and beans, fresh
bread, cake, cookies, pie, potato salad,
stuffed eggs brown bread and Gus
tard The wife thought her husband
would say: You poor darling, how
you have worked today!" Instead, he
said in a surprised way: GOLD sup
per! Lord, but you have an easy
time" His wife did not answer him.
She was speechless with rage, and
he does not know to this day why she
asked the court to be divorced from

Faith in Guaranty Law.

Oklahoma City, Okla.-Governor
Cruce believes there will be more
state banks in operation in Oklahoma
within IL months than at any time in
the history of the depositors guar
antv law. More than 200 applications,
he saws, are before the banking board.
The report of State Examiner and In
spector Taylor of the guaranty fund
and the Columbia Bank and Trust
company failure, the governor said,
will be ready for the public in a short
time. The report made by a Kansas
CITY auditing firm was at the instance
of the state bankers.
"The policy of the board hereafter
will be to scrutinize closely every ap-
plication for a charter" said the gov
ernor. "All efforts possible will be
made to prevent dishonest and incom-
peten men from entering the banking
business, and to prevent too many
charters being issued. A bank must
prove profitable, as when this is not
the case failures will follow. 1t is to
the interest of every state bank and
the public that we prevent the estab-
lish too many state banks, and pro-
tect those now in operation"

Gresham college in 1919 was the
scene of famous serio-comic duel be-
tween two celebrated doctors, Dr..
Mead and DR.. Woodward, both OF
whom were lecturers at the college.
While walking down Bishopsgate
street one morning they quarreled
over some medical question and adj
journed to the square of the college
to fight 1t out with swords. Woodward
fell, wounded in several places, where
upon Mead magnanimously said, take
thy life" Anything but your physic,"

ere he swooned away.-London Chron-
