cellent bouquet. So little has been
sold that so far no price has been es-
tablished, nor is anybody in a position
to form any idea as to what prices will
prevail. Some offers have already been
made for these goods, but they have
not even been considered, because they
have fallen much short of what the
packers want. While the manufacture
ers have been steady in their demand
for old goods, they have at best been
providing only fairly good jobbing
trade, doing only, as one dealer put it,
hand to mouth business. While such
trading means higher prices for the
goods than sold in bulk, it is not the
trade the buyers would choose if they
had their choice. But it is away ahead
of the business that prevailed this time
last year, or rather, it should be said,
the lack of business then.
No two packers appear to hold the
same view as to the new crop, that
now curing in the shed, and curing
very nicely from all reports. Our pack
ers will evidently want goods when the
time comes for buying, and the time
will be after it is stripped.

Hires Her Husband Under Prison Law.

Mrs. Edward Arneson of GAINESVILLE
will not have to wait supper on pay
nights hereafter while she wonders
how much of his weekly pay her hus-
band is going to reach home with. She
will be absolutely sure that everything
Edward earns will find it's way into the
family fund. Under the new state law
Arneson, a tailor, was sentenced to one
year at hard labor Mrs. Arneson, who
made the complaint against her hus-
band, charging non-support, immedi-
ately hired him to work for her. He
was supposed to work for her anyhow,
but she is dead sure of getting what he
earns now. His wife will be his boss
for IL months-his real boss-not boss
in name only.
The tailor, who complains that it
seems like working for Sweeney, will
not even have the fun of drawing his
own wages The sheriff of the county
will do that for him and will deliver
them to Mrs. Arneson. 1t depends on
how good natured the wife is whether
the tailor gets enough for carfase and
lunch every day. And if he should OBJ
ject to the terms, a jail sentence on
a bread and water diet faces him, or to
jump his job a sentence of year in
states prison awaits him. The Huber
law is meeting long felt want.

Stuart rose quickly, placed the docu-
ment in his inside pocket and hurried
home.
The deeper the young lawyer probed
into the mass of corruption Bivens had
placed in his hands the more profound
became his surprise That men whose
names were the synonyms OF honesty
and fair dealing. men intrusted with
the management of companies whose
assets represented the savings OF mil
lions of poor men. the sole defense Of
millions of helpless women and chill
dren-that these trusted leaders of the
world were habitually prostituting
their trusts for personal gain, stagger-
ed belief
He delayed action and began a care
full patient thorough investigation.
As it proceeded his amazement in
creased He found that Bivens had
only scratched the surface of the truth.
New York. the financial center of the
nation. had gone mad with the insane
passion for money at all hazards-by
all MEANS fair or foul. The nation
was on the tidal wave of the most
wonderful industrial boom in its his
tory. The price of stocks had reached
fabulous figures and still scared to
greater heights. Millionaires were
springing up. like mushrooms, in a
night.
Two months had passed since Bivens
placed in the district attorneys hands
the document which was destined to
make sad history in the annals Of the
metropolis. Stuart felt that the time
had come 70 act. 1t was his solemn
duty to the people

He seized his telephone and made an
appointment to call at once on Bivens.
The fnancier extended his delicate
hand and with a cordial smile led Stu
art to a seat beside his desk. The only
sign he betrayed of deep emotion was
the ice like GOODNESS of his slender
fingers.

Taylor Battered. but Game.

All through the East Orange Mont
clair High School football game last
Friday at Ashland Field the source
of great anxiety to the Red and Blue
cohorts was the question of the length
of time that Harry Taylor, the cap
tain of the New Jersey Interscholastic
League champions would stand up I'M
der the battering that he was receiv-
ing at the hands of the mountain
town offensive machine. Fridays
game was the second of the season for
the East Orange leader, his lay-off up
to the date of the Princeton Prep. con-
test having been necessitated by a re-
cent illness. Taylor stuck to the game
until he was exhausted with weari-
ness He kicked a goal from place
ment, dashed down the field for a
score after receiving n forward pass
and was Il dead stop for any plays
that were directed his way. In the
second half, Taylor was observed to
wobble through sheer WEAKNESS of
body Still he kept on, urging an in
crease of score, instilling spirit into
the battered members of the suburban
backfleld until he was led off the field
By his mates shouting a last word OF
encouragement to his team.
