Wine Agent is no More

Not so long ago favorite tale was
that Of an elderly wine agent and the
innocent young thing. Today tits that
OF the young near-beer agent and a
woman with children nearly as old as
he. Truly romance has changed, If
not persisted!
Three Or four months ago the wife
Of Henry Huntington, a wealthy farm
er Of Area, Lake county, Illinois, left
home,J husband and grown son and
daughter. She is In her middle forties
and comely.. -.-.~ ea,
Early the other morning a detective
employed by. Henry found her in an
apartment in Aurora, III. She tried,
vainly. to hold him at the door. But
she and Henry Jaros, twenty-four-year-
old near-beer agent. who had been
known as "Henry Huntington" at the
apartment, went to the police station
together, where they were booked on
a serious charge and held for bail of
81 600 each. Jaros was out the next
day. But Mrs. Huntington was still
awaiting bond.

most important part of our
yenture-how much we have en-
yed our new home. Indeed, 1t
would be hard for me to put 1t into
words. We feel that every little
thing we do to improve 1t is per-
manent pleasure.
All thru last winter we had a
Joyous time gloating over seed cata-
logs every evening. We planned our
yard with a view to making 1t a
small bower of beauty. When
spring came we planted along the
back wall small Lombardy poplars,
with q lilac bush at each end. Be-
ween the poplars we planted holly
hooks. Just inside of these we put
bridal wreath and coral-berry
bushes.
In front of these bushes we
planted roses, peonies and Towering
almond bushes; and still closer to
the center of the yard, the small
flowers that blossom all summer
long-pansies, nasturtiums, zinnias,
asters, etc.
Along one side, which has wire
instead of wooden fence, we put
sweet peas; and on the other side
grapevines. Mother set out a few
strawberry vines and we had enough
of vegetable garden to supply US
with radisheso lettuce, onions and
tomatoes all summer. As you sur
mise there wasn't much grass in the
back yard, but it was certainly a
glory of color.
. We planted Virginia creeper all
around the house, gladioluses along
the south wall, and more bridal
wreath and coral-berries in front.
The walk, which is on the north side
of the house, we bordered with
sweet alyssum and forget-me-nots.
Now, really, couldn't even the
most unimaginative fiat dweller
have a good time planning such q
garden?
AS I said in the beginning, have
told this story to many friends and
know that readers will inevitably
do the same thing they did-pull
out apencil and paper and proceed
to show me how it can't be done.
But mother and I have proved that
it can.

How We Bought a Home

back yard, not the brick wall that
faces a court bedroom in the city.
We had no trouble at all renting
this room for $3.50 a week-about
SIS month.
The upstairs is divided into two
large, attractive rooms, each with
an exceedingly large closet. The
closet Of the smaller room we made
into a pantry. We furnished both
rooms attractively for light house
keeping, and as soon as they were
ready, rented them for $25 a month.
So the rent we received provided
our monthly payment on the house
and left a little over, which covered
our coal bill. Our renters, having
their own entrance, are absolutely
no bother to us, nor do they, inter-
fere with our privacy half as much
as our neghbors in the fiat building
did.
The So week we paid to the
bank amounted to about the same
as we had formerly paid for rent;
but when the year was up that ex-
pense ended.
OF course, everybody raises the
objection, "But wasn't practically
all Of your monthly payment inter-
est?"
And l reply: Eyes, it was. About
$22 out of the $35 we paid the real
estate people every month was in
terest, because our house cost
$4,000"
But then I ask them how much
of the rent they pay is applied to
their credit on home. And the
answer is obvious.
1t is amazing to mother and me
how many people will pay from $35
to $50 a month rent (this is, of
course, speaking only Of the people
who, are about in our own financial
position,) and are willing to do it
year after year.
We know Of two people who have
lived in one apartment ten years,
paying $40 a month when they
started and now paying $55. They
have practically paid the owner the
whole value of that property; yet
they have nothing, but rent receipts
to show for that ten years outflow
of cash.
Even with only $13 month be-
ing applied on the principal, house
would be paid for some time. And
you always have to remember that
as time goes on, the debt and inter-
est grow smaller.

'BESSEMER DEFEATS
ENSLEY JACKETS
Though Outweighed Jackets
Fought Hard-Harris'
Coaching Tells

Smashing through the light but nE-
gressive Jacket line during the closing
rounds OF yesterdays game Mt Rick
wood, the Bessemer Tigers defeated
EnsIey % to o. At no time after the
first few minutes of play was the re-
suit seriously In doubt. Bessemer
showed over n touchdown In the first
quarter and though the Ensley team
fought valiant1y against overwhelming
odds they were outweished and ont
classed.
Bessemer took the ball soon after
the kickoff and by series of line
bucks and end-runs carried it down
the field to the five yard line where
Baty plunged over. In the second
quarter the Jackets hurled themselves
at their heavier opponents with mad
dening fury and successfully stemmed
the blue tide for time. 1t was in this
quarter just after the teams had swap
ped goals that an Ensley played pulled
the prize bone" of the year Picking
up a tumble near the middle of the
field he ran so yards to his own goal
line and fell on the pigskin for a
safety.
The play created considerable mer-
riment among the crowd, but in justice
to the unfortunate player who forgot
that his side had changed goals it must
be stated that the Bessemer team made
frantic efforts to tackle him and his
own coach cheered wildly as he made
his famous run in the wrong direction.
The third quarter saw the prettiest
football of the game. Ensley's right
end and right tackle broke through
time and again and downed the blue
jerseys for a loss. Bessemer. however,
found the other side of the line easy
and gained almost at will. Baty and the
other Tiger backs showed the result
of Red Harris splendid coaching both
on running interference and on hitting
the line. Waller and Merritt picked
their holes nicely and blocked we'll in
the pinches.

Auburns nine years of uninterrupted
supremacy over the Aggies is in serious
danger of becoming broken this after
noon II the statements of Aggie followers
are borne out in today's fracas. Each year
1.-THE Aggies have made it harder on the
Tigers. A few seasons back Donahue' =
men found their Mississippi opponents
easy picllings," but things have changed
and IN 1916 and 1917, the last two meetings
of these eleven5, the Tigers barely escaped
with a decision by the margin of a few
points.
Auburn is somewhat crippled today by
the absence from the lineup of Blossom
Scott, the sensational Bessemer boy, who
has been going like a house afire in the
backheld. SCOTS shoes will be pretty well
filled by Williamson. Sizemore, the giant
guard is also hors de combat.
Auburn is said to have a shade the
best of it on ends, while the guards and
ackles are evenly matched. A. and M. S
offense will probably offset any advantage
the Tigers might possess at the wing po-
sitons.
The Aggies are in great shape with the
possible exception of Weissinger, at full
back This big line plunger was hurt in
Thursdays scrimmage and may not last
long today.
The treat of the battle will be the
struggle between Capt Pete Bonner at
tackle for Auburn, and Carpenter, the
Aggies' star tackle. Both of these men
are fighting for all-southern honors and
the winner OF today's match will prob
ably get the majority of selections as a
mate on the mythical team.
Auburn will do well to watch Captain
Henley the A. and NJ guard, who has
been breaking through opposing lines all
season and throwing runners for losses
Fixes and Ollinger. at end, should have a
merry. scrap as both are stars on solving
interference
Il All in all the contest bids fair to be
the best played on the local arena this
year and with ideal weather in prospect
"a crowd Of rearly 10000 is expected to
attend.
According to the weights announced by
rival coaches. Auburn will average 1S2
pounds to the man, as against 1874 for the
Aggies.
