Mrs. Mary L. Harris took the wit
ness stand Monday morning, in
Judge Hally's court, to testify in
behalf of her brother-in-law, Frank
l.. Harris, and against her sister,
Mrs. Ellen Bischoff. In the $4,000
breach OF promise suit, Mrs. Bisch-
off has bdought against Harris.
Mrs. Harris, like her sister, is a
widow. She greatly resembles the
plaintiff in the case. She was quick
TO deny rumors attributed to her
sister and their attorneys that she
was planning to marry Harris, a
brother OF her late husband.
He never even spoke TO me
about marriage" she said. "The
only time he ever visited me was
when we had some business mat
ters to discuss
did you ever tell your sister she
would be shot if she did not drop
this suit?" asked Mrs. Bischoff, /,
lawyer.

did tell her, however, that she ought
TO drop This suit--that it was fool
ish to go through with such a
thing"
Mrs. Harris stated at first that
tho estate of her father.in-law was
valued at $4,000. Later she admit
ted that she had sworn in probate
court that it was worth at least
$4,000 Harris, the defendant,
holds claim to half the estate.

they met Mrs Bischoff in a back
room.

Vernicr, "she got UP and said III

Young Vernier added with pride
that he settled the uproar by pur-
chasing a drink for the party.
The cross-examination of Harris
was completed early IN the morning
AS a closing question. after Harris
had been forced to recall the numer-
Gus occasions when he had quar-
relied with the widow, he was asked:
viii you define love?"
Harris suffered, and finally said
We'll, it's to think more OF wo-
man than anyone else can think OF

BATTLE CREEK, Mich, Nov Is.
Walter Clark, once a leader In
Battle Greek society and interna-

tanned international fame and added
thousands to Clark's fortune. Sever
al years ago Clark shot and killed
his brother Chester, in Madisonr

considered purely an accident, Clark
has never been The same since. His
health finally failed and he was
forced TO sell bis property.

Clark seldom visited the town where
he had been so prominent.

What Distributive Method To Choose

As producer or wholesaler who seeks to sell more
than locally You must first decide whether your goods
adyertisabe How to advertise them will depend entirely
on the sales system that you wish to And that sys
fem will be called your method of distribution
First, you have your product whether it be made in
Your factory whether you buy it from else
You decide you want this product to be big thing You
don't want to limit its sale to your city, to Your section
to your state You want to reach the entire
tionat least as far transportation limitations will
allow.
In other words, you decide that you will use adver=
tsng to make the greatest possible distribution of
goods. And if you decide that you have to decide
what system to For instance suppose you make
fence You will have competitors in the national field,
who do not manufacture their wire fence They buy
it from another factory Now both you and these other
do business of three million dollars year.

You may dispose of your wire through sales force.
