luxury will always be al her command
Being determined to earn her own living,
and not merely to marry it, she takes stock
of herself and finds that her experience and
education, wide and diversified from a fash
ionable viewpoint, included nothing practical.
But that was all she had for sale After
studying the matter. she concluded that there
must be rich people in the world who would
be willing to pay literally for just the accom-
plishments she possessed. She was sure that
as Secretary OF Frivolous Affairs she would be
a real success. and the problem was to find
a family She succeeded, of course-what

mere humans had control of them? The
things that happen after she gets her unique

There is plenty of excitement of one kind

rival her husband in the world of letters.

LAST EVENING.

Last nights caucus I'm the Laurium

tellers.
Joseph Wills was nominated for

For the two year terms for trustee

ceiving the highest number of votes
being declared elected. The successful

For trustee for one year to fill va
cancy, John b. Rastello. the retiring
trustee received the nomination over
i. II. Manner by only 10 votes. The
vote stood 1855 to 166. 1t is probable
that a fifth trustee will have to be
named. TO succeed Samuel Jeffrey, who
has gone to Lansing to take a state
appointment. This vacancy likely will
be filled by appointment by the presi-
dent OF the village. 1t was decided
to call the ticket the Nomination

OF impure matter daily, when un-

on many diseases and symptoms

BURNS MAY CUT
LESTER LOOSE
LAX ATTENTION TO TRAINING
RULES GIVEN AS REASON
FOR CONTEMPLATED
ACTION.

Portland, March 3.-Boxing circles
are stirred up considerably over the
report that Jack Lester has not been
paying strict attention to the curfew
bell, and that Tommy Burns is on the
point of cutting him loose.
If Burns gives up the management
of Lester his chances for a battle with
Bill Lang in Australia Easter Monday
and with Walter Monohan in Califor-
MIA are discounted, Burns has always
been a stickler for the straight and
narrow path in athletics and when he
returned from Olympia to find that
his protege had forgotten when the
last car left town he was not pleased.
II have not broken with Lester. .
said Burns last night, but there is
truth in the story that ] am dissatis-

Hueston lost his title TO Jerome

LONG ROUTE MAY ENABLE
W0LCASI To BEAT BROWN

Many of the shrewdest judges of
boxing are predicting that Al wolgast,
the champion lightweight, will turn
the tables on X. o. Brown when they
meet in another 10-round contest at
the National Sporting club Of New
York tonight. The longer route and
the fact that Wolgast knows some
thing about Browns methods are rea-
sons for this belief.
The weight is 1873 pounds, ringside
which governed the recent six round
bout in Philadelphia, so that there can
he no material difference in the phys
ical condition of the men.
Brown, however. is more confident
of success than he was before the
Philadelphia affair He doesn't fear
Wolgast at all. In fact he considers
him not so dangerous as one Round
Hogan. X. O. purposes to make the
same rushing fight from the start and
thinks that he can win more decisive
ly. Wolgast who is strictly a long dis
lance boxer a plodder. is expected to
show better staying quality in ten
rounds and may adopt much different
tactics. He has confidence i'm his left
hand now and says he will depend on
1t more than at Philadelphia. He
states that he will not begin slowly
and will get busy with his attack right
off the reel. If Wolgast means what
he says there'll be a serious clash and
Brown may find the going more diff
cult than in the recent setto.

mcnt TO the retail dealer. Many Of
The retailers are not buying heavily,
as perhaps 80 per cent of them expect
lower prices in the near future, hut |
believe they will be disappointed. The
increases i'm prices are due to the fact
that the svQply of food products does
not keep up TO the demand.
with the demand increasing stead
ily it is not likely that food products.
especially canned goods, will sell at
more favorable prices than at present
for months to come, as many of the
wholesalers have large ORDERS on hand
for delivery later in the year our
house will not be able to fill all of its
orders in certain lines unless some
new sources of supply are opened up,
as il is impossible to get additional
goods for immediate delivery. The
prices for such articles as canned to-
matoes. peas, corn, etc, are growing
sitter every day. The retail dealers
are complaining about the prices and
] do not blame them, but the whole
ealers are not responsible, as they
cannot begin to meet the demands
for goods.

among the retail dealers, as well as
among the consumers. The whole
