WIFE SOLD FOR HALF CROWN

From time to time cases in the po- lice court show that there is still a belief, especially among the English colliers, that a man may legally sell his wife. Formerly the error was widespread among the lower classes in Lancashire, it being thought to be a purely legal transaction if the wife was taken to the place of sale with q haNer round her neck, and the buyer Was given written receipt by the husband for the money paid Quite late in the nineteenth century man pleaded in a Lancashire county court that he was not liable for his wife's debts, as he had sold her to another man for half crown long before the debts in question were contracted.

1t took Mr.. Rogers long time to
get out of his overcnat and take off
his gloves. Generally he was full of
boyish spirits when the days work
was done. Now he was very quiet,
and he looked long and absently out
of the window.
Presently the door opened, and Jack
came in.
Jack. said his father, 81 want to
show you something
Relief and interest showed instantly
in the boys face. The dreaded ques-
tion was not to be asked, after all.
Mr.. Rogers led the way to his work
room in the attic. There were his car
penter-bench, and his tools and his
lathe. and in the corner was the dyna-
mo that worked it. Jack had seen
them all many times.
"What is it. father" he asked.
Mr.. Rogers laid his hand upon the
dynamo. Jack, by means of this a
mysterious power becomes mine, We
call it electricity, but no one knows
what it is. We only know that if we
treat it in the right way, it will en-
able US to do wonderful things. 1t
will work our mills, and light our
houses and our streets, and run our
cars. 1t will enable man to do more
than any other power that has been
discovered, But at the same time. if
you treat it in the wrong way. it will
strike you dead!'
Eyes, father, know that" said
Jack.
His father turned toward him with
an earnestness that Jack had never
before seen in his face. "There is an
other power, very like that in its re-
suits. There is the mysterious
feeling that men have for women and
women have for men. Treat that
right, and it will bless your life and
enoble it, and make you ten times, yes
hundred times, the man you could
ever be without it, Nothing on earth
will do so much for you if you treat it
right. But treat that feeling wrong,
and it will curse you, and blast your
life, and kill your immortal SOUL"
For moment they looked each 9TH
er square in the eye. Then together
they went downstairs IN silence. In
the hall below, Jack put his hand on
his fathers arm. Il know what you
mean, father, and | know it's truev'

BRITTS CHAUTAUQUA
Not the Company That Held
Forth in Adjacent Towns
A. Rumored

1t has been passed about the country
that the Chautauqua that was held at
Julesburg and Sidney is the same that
will be held here in August. This is a
mistake, as the company giving the
Chautauqua in Chappell is given by the
Britt Company of Lincoln, while the
other named Chautauqua was given by
the Redpath Company of Des Moines.
All of the attractions to be given at
the Chappell Chautauqua are supposed
only to be first class. and should they
not prove to be what they are repre-
sented the Chappell Commercial Club
who have undertaken the project To-
cally, will be sadly disappointed. The
Chautauqua given at both Julesburg
and Sidney were reported as being first
class and contracts have already been
signed for another next year.
Chautauqua tickets have been plac-
ed upon sale at the two banks, the
drug store. the hardware store and
Wertz and Johnson's real estate office
Those desiring to buy tickets should
call and make their wants known.
More illustrated literature of the
Chautauqua numbers will soon be had
for distribution, and every person in
the community should secure one in
order to become better acquainted
with the good features that will be
given. .-Chappell Register.

BEET SUGAR CHALLENGE

Time is pressing and crisis H hand Quick action is
necessary Free duty sugar going the beet sugar

Here is proposition: Let asgar be protected for six

Of production the United tss and elsewhere Athe
end Of six the beet sugar d has increased IS
per cent then let the bars down both and refined
has inc1eased IS cent give tie industry further
able protection
In sporting parlance, the beet sugar industry bets its in
dustra life against your free trade theories that show
six years that the great American industry it bets that
demonstrate this short period that encouraged it can
produce enough sugar supply the entire United States
This idea, carried into effect would that the sugar
trust would have formidable competitor that the Irrigated
West would be given impetus that would carry it into
Of solid unbreakabe prosperity The former accor-
dance with your political theories and the latter should be in
harmony with your mission to Washington.
To increase beet sugar production IS per years
would be necessary build about twelve sugar factories
per year, grow approximately 5000 Of sugar bee for
each factory employ multitude Of for both agricultural
and factory purposes would wealth each community
which factory erected would reclamation Of
used acreage and industrial life to Colorado
This proposition carried into event. would encourage
