SAL ARIES FOR WIVES,

airs. lHarveyINy Wiley, bride of the
good9doc tor of, that Names has COME
out in favor OF salaries for wives. She
believes that the wife should be paid
a regular amount which should aver
age one.thlrd Of the husbands in
come. She should be paid this salary
for being a wife and the husband
should run the house and keep things
going on the other two-thirds.
Many husbands will smile at the
suggestion of Mrs. Wiley to the effect
that two.thirds Of his income could be
devoted to keeping up the establish
lnent when most Of them are now de-
voting three.thlrds of it TO that very
purpose. 1t is mooted question, this
distribution OF the contents Of the
envelope on Saturday alght and 1t
cannot be solyed by any set rule.
Nearly every vJamily has different
arrangement tNsp that of any other
family and in, most cases, where hus-
bands and wives are sensible, It works
out satisfactorily A wife on a rcgu-
lar salary would be apt to assume. a
position ipsthe household similar to
that occupied by the butler or the
maid. Besides that, in some families,
where the woman is the wage'earncr,
the husbands would have to be paid
salaries and no sclf.respecting man
could accept a salary from his wife.

:. REDUCTION

cents: .,.. u.
Had the Baltimore and Ohio not
made known its intention of reducing
the West Virginia coal rate shippers
in the Fairmont fields would have
been badly handicapped in competing
with the Pittsburgh companies Tor
lake business. Last season the coal
rate charged by the Baltimore and
Ohio for lake business was 96A cents
as against SIS cents for the Pittsburgh
rate. This season the Baltimore and
Ohio rate was to have been 81, which
would have increased the differential
in favor of the Pittsburgh shippers.
For the past three or four days
there has been considerable talk in
the local coal trade OF a possible re-
duction in the West Virginia rate, In
order to permit the West Virginia
SINNERS to overcome the handicap
under which they would have done
business had the higher rate been
maintained.
Fairmont companies are vitality H.
terested in the reduction Of the rate
on the part of the Baltimore and Ohio'
for II will mean that they will stu be
able to compete with the Pittsburgh
companies for lake business.

The Great Final Clearance Sale at
Franks is now on it's last lap. In
very-very short while it will end and
with it will go the greatest money
saving opportunity this town has
ever known. If you have attended

want to miss the last few days which
are the best of all. If you have not
yet taken advantage of this sale don't
delay any longer for you will be DOOM
ed to disappointment. Come Now:
For the last days prices have been
cut still more recklessly in order to
force the remaining goods out in a
hurry.
Stores don't go out of business every
day-another such opportunity will
probably not present itself for years
and years to come. So don't delay
such unprecedented bargains won't
last forever come before it proves
