is not considered much Of a hand,
but the affair arranged by the author,
Edward Peple, backed by a queen of
hearts, has created a farce that has
been declared "a royal flush" in the
matter of fun. It has proven to be
the biggest farce winner in the his

the firm, by playing a showdown
hand of poker. A Pair of Skies
wins. By the terms of the contract,
the losing partner becomes the other
mans servant for a period Of one
year. The latter is installed a but
Ter in the winning partners house
hold, where his position is made the
more embarrassing by the efforts of
a funny Cockney servant, who makes
violent love to him and is determined
to capture him as a husband. To
add to the complications of his po-
sition, his sweetheart arrives as a
guest in the household. He is unable
to explain to her his presence as a

Desert and the land was considered
worthless as far as farming is con-
cerned, and SOC was a big price for
land.-Werner Record. XII
