The Big Mans professional jealousy had out

the first night approached, reckless of conse

said nothing. She knew it would be useless.

even vanity did not excuse; and in the sense that
1t manned the play and injured the actress, it was
a crime
The Leading Woman knew the play was a good
play, and that there way to save it. The
remedy lay with her. If, instead of acquescmg

Big Man would have no alternative but to go on

she had called her Unknown; for whom she had
kept her heart empty all the lean years of her
married life
She went quickly back to her dressing room.
Not only for the authors sake, but for her own;
her mind was made up to revert to the earlier

CANADA BIC WINNER
Captures Many Prizes at Lead
ing American Fairs.
Remarkable Showing Made at Interna-
tional Live Stock Show at Chi
cago-carried off Sweepstakes
For All Wheat.

Something that lends emphasis to,
and affords definite proof of, the gen.
crosby of the soil and climate Of
western Canada, is shown by the
numerous exhibits made by both the
government and individual farmers
and stock raisers of that country, at
many of the leading state and county
fairs in the United States this season.
Particularly is this the case with re-
gard to exhibits made at the Inter
national Live Stock Show recently
held at Chicago.
First and foremost to the average
farmer will appeal the fact that
Canada carried off the Sweepstakes
for all wheat, and that out Of total
Of twenty-five prizes, Canada took
twenty. In oats the Grand Champion
ship was won by a farmer living in
the Province of Alberta. Canada also
was awarded the championship for
Durum wheat, while for Flint Corn out
of a total of ten prizes, Canada took
first, second third, sixth and seventh.
Not only in grains did Canada prove
her right to rank as a first class agri-
cultural country, but she carried off
many prizes for cattle. horses, sheep
and hogs, a partial list of which fol-
lows:
Cattle, Canada was awarded the
championship for Grade Shorthorns,
also in the College Special class, Can
ada gained first, fourth and sixth
prizes.
Horses, Grand Championship for
Clydesdale stallion, also Grand Cham
pionship for American bred mare, as
well as first for three-year-old Clydes-
dale stallion, first for One-year-od
Clydesdale stallion, and second for
the aged class.
In the Belgian class, Canada OBJ
tanned first and reserve for Champion
|. ship Belgians, as well as second for
Aged stallion. q,
Sheep, Canada obtained Champion
ship for block, male and female. in
: addition to first prize in all group
prizes.
Hogs, in the Yorkshire class Canada
was very prominent, taking the, Cham
pionship for pen of Yorkshires, and
championship for best single barrow,
as well as over twenty first, second
and third prizes in other classes Of
YOrkshires.
With regard to the live stock shown
1t must be borne in mind that these
have not been fed on corn. on which
the average western farmer places his
reliance, but on the wonderful oats
and barley grown in western Canada,
supplemented by the native grasses,
Of which a most artistic display was
made by our neighbors to the north.
Canada has conclusively proved that
not only can she take prizes for the
grain she raises, but can also take
prizes with the animals to which
these grains have been fed, and this
in open competition with the world.

The first delivery ever received in the state of a six-cylinder motor driven farm machine was made the past week to Ed Tway of Mesa, it being among the first carload of Avery two-row motor cultivator- plan ters received by the att-Gilbert com pany, state distributors for the well known Avery line of motor farming equipment.
 After using his new machine several days, Mir.

He will plant 200 acres of cotton this year and handle the cultivating with his new machine.
 Montgomery & Sons of Marinette, farming 500 acres of cotton this year. who contracted for two of the motor cultivators several weeks ago, also took out their machines the past week.
 Eleven more carloads of these Avery motor cultivators are already con- tracted for and will be received by the local firm within the next two weeks.

FIRST ELCAR GOES
 TO LOCAL CITIZEN

The Elcar had not been in Phoenix 36 hours before one of them had a new owner, and the latest automobile sen Sation in Phoenix was on the streets.
 Probably no car which has ever made it's advent in Phoenix has been more talked about than the Elcar. c. F. Moore, prominent local citizen who purchased the first Elcar, had been hearing so much about the wonders of the Elcar that he hastened to see 1t as soon as he heard it was here. One look and he was interested Another investigation and he was enthusiastic and about the third look he decided he had better get the car before some one took it away from him.
 Following the arrival of the Elcar in Phoenix and the announcement that it was here it was next to impossible to close the show room of the Roamer Motor Sales company, the crowds in sisted on coming in to see the car, and once in they insisted on staying. It has proven to be one of the best look ing cars ever brought to the city and looks are not deceiving in its case.

 When speeding over country high ways or city streets the driver of any car has a tendency to gaze a consider able way ahead; every few seconds, however. he glances down at the road immediately in front, looking for ruts and bumps. The more horseshoes that are dodged the less apt is one of the tires to pick up a nail. Unobstructed views made possible by the sloping French hood gives the Franklin driver a greater view than is afforded by any

Prince of Wales
 Goldsmith Now

London, Feb. 23.-The Prince oi Wales today received the freedom oi the Goldsmiths company, one of the most ancient London trade guilds which has been in existence fol more than TOO years. He took a solemn oath that he would, among other things, "warn the wardens of any deceit in anything that belong eth to the craft of goldsmiths that shall come to my. knowledge"
 The Goldsmiths Hall, where the ceremony took place, is massive structure situated on Foster Lane, in the city. Here the coin of the realm has been weighed and tested since the year 124S, but the chief work of the 100 men engaged there is to assay gold and silver plate. Their patron saint is St. Dunstan, who, according to legend, tweaked the devils nose with pair of red dot pincers.
 Once year the time-honored "tral of the pyx" is carried out at the Goldsmiths Hall. A pyx is a box into which one gold coin out of every 2,000 issued by the mint, and one silver coin out of every 60 pounds of silver coined, are thrown. The duty of the goldsmths is to see that the money is of the right quality.
