YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF.
Huntington Hawkeye.]
The good housekeeper lays aside a
certain amount on pay day, to meet
obligations that have to be met
There Is SO much for the landlord.
So much for the grocer. So much
for the butcher. and so on thru the
list
And how much do you lay away
for yourself?
Surely you are as important to
yourself as any Of your other cred
itors. You have to look out for
yourself. You must have money in
case OF sickness or other trouble.
Why is not your debt to yourself
as important as any Of the others !?
Then why not first Of all put aside
50 much for yourself? Put 1t away
and let it grow. Pretty soon it will
begin working for you and that is
what none OF the other accounts will
do, that you are providing for.
Try 1t and keep trying. In a lit
tie while 1t win become second ma
ture to you and you will pay your.
self first and you will no more think
OF not paying yourself than OF not
paying the rent or the grocer's bill.
And when trouble comes, you will
more fully realize the wisdom Of
what you have been doing for your
self. And II no trouble comes, then
in the course Of time you will have
money working for you. And that
is very good thing to have.
IOWA HOG SALES ARE NOW ON.
Davenport Democrat
Iowa has the reputation Of being
the home OF pure-bred hogs-and
that reputation will be borne out by
the exhibits at the Mississippi Valley
Fair and Exposition at Davenport
next week
Probably Iowa has more pure bred
hogs than any other state in the
Union. We have not only the quanti-
ty OF pork on the hoof. but we have
quality.
A friend from a northwestern Iowa
county writes that he is to clerk five
pure bred hog sales this week, and
that they are expected to total not
less than s15O,0O0. From our ex-
perience with conservative Iowa esti-
mates, we predict that the five sales
will run well over that figure.
They will be mostly on cash
basis. Enough automobiles will be
parked at each one Of them. probably,
to represent an investment that not
all the farmers of a county had IN
rolling stock a quarter OF a century
ago.
The Iowa stock or farm sale IS
great institution. In no other state
could 1t be equalled. for 1t Is the
wealth in the hands Of the common
people that makes it a success. HOGS
will be bought at hundreds and IN
some cases thousands OF dollars
apiece, and checks will be written IN
payment for them that are as good

HIGH COURT sus1MNS
CONVICTION OF sT0RRS


Conviction of Douglas M. Storrs by
q jury in the Okanogan county supe-
rior court for seduction Of Ruth Car
rison, who poisoned and killed Mr..
storrs, was affirmed by the state SUI
preme court today. The opinion,
written by Judge J. B. Bridges. wss
concurred In by Judges Tolman. Full
lerton and Holcomb. Judge Mount
dlssented from the majority ruling.
Judge Mount says: There = NO
evidence whatever in this case that
the appellant at any time used any
artihc, promise. inducemcnt, or per
suasion or deception to cause Ruth
Garrison to yield to him." Holding
that the jury's verdict merely found
the girl insane at the time she killed
Mrs. Storrs. Judge Mount says there
is no evidence Of insanity when she
testified at the Storr's trial, and that
the state vouched for her sanity and
relied upon her testimony.
Referring to the allegation Of
Storrs that the trial court committed
reverviblo error In refusing to permit
counsel for the defense to interview
the Garrison girl before or pending
trial, the court holds that the Ques-
tion was within the discretion of the
trial Judge and that there is no evi-
dence to warrant the assumption that
It was not properly exercised. The
higher court also Sdst SI6G the trial
Judge in refusing to permit the aGAr
rison girl to accept an offer of mar.
riage made in open court by Storrs,
the trial court basing such refusal on
the ground that the grill had been
found insane. =
"The only things lifting this case
above the usual in such cases." says
the opinion, "is the great. uncommon
and unnatural love of Ruth Garrison
for the appellant, always shining
through the dross."
