Benjamin Franklin
OF FAMOUS MEN

Benjamin Franklin was a happy bow.
His mother had given him a few pen
lies to spend however he pleased, and
pennies in those days to the Franklin
children were treasures.
On his way to the store, he met a
10Y with whistle which had such a
.oud, clear tone, that he wanted one
lust like it.
Arrived at the toy shop he threw
MS pennies on the counter and told tic
shop keeper he would give them all
10 him for whistle. The shop keeper
laid out number on the counter and
Ben selected one just like the other
boy had
He went home and proudly exhibited
his prize. When he told his brothers
what he paid for II they laughed and
said he had paid four times more than
the ordinary price.
Little Benjanin burst into tears and
threw the whistle away, for he did not
like It any more.
Benjamin Franklin never forgot
about the whistle. When he wanted
to buy something he didn't need. ne
would say TO himself, don't pay too
much for the whistle"

DIVORCE NOT
FIRST in RENO
Few Wild Women Are
Found in Busting Ne
vada City
MARY-DOUG
TANGLE TOLD
BY JACK JUNGMEYER.
y. A. San CorrespOndont.

n. \. A. SIAN correspondent.
RENO NEVADA. April 3O-"Where's
the divorce colony ?" is the first ques-
tion asked by every stranger IN Reno.
The popular outside impression
seems 90 be that somewhere In this
widely-adyertised city there is a con-
gregatiOn OF more or less wild women
In the process OF shuffling on the m6--
ital coil. and that the shedding pro-
cess is accompanied by peculiar and
shocking antics.
IT'S a shame TO disillusion you,
friends. but this Is a highly distorted
picture Of Nevada's biggest town and
Americas divorce capitol.
In connection with the Pickford
case, which now has the State by the
ears, ] looked rather carefully for
divorces here, and / saw just five
women whom ! suspected OF being
such
"Where are they2r asked an old
timer.
You've got me. stranger" with toll
Grant amusement 1--WE lived here all
my life, and / couldn't positively pick
out half a dozen with the brand. Lots
OF 'em around, but they're hard to
spot. Most OF 'em are just ordinary
folks. You can't pick 'em by their ac-
tions or clothes. Very few OF EN- wear
horns"
Those I saw, men and women,
weren't wild. There are said TO be
some 800 here now, waitng-and
watchfully waiting since the Pickford
mix-up. Perhaps one tenth that num-
Der have the money and inclination TO
idle away the six months which New
ada exacts as the price for separation.
Most or them WOrk-many as sales
girls, stenographers, In homes, as ush-
ers In the movie theatres earning
honest bread by honest sweat. Many
OF the women bring their families
here, living quietly in rented homes.
It's exceedingly difficult 10 start a
filtration with the great majority. so l
am reliably informed by the handsom-
est drummer making the town.
DecOriously. IL not entirely inObtru-
slvely, the idle candidates gather in
the lobby OF the Riverside hotel, the
Golden and apartment houses, discuss
ing their symptoms" telling one an
other why they simply couldn't stand
Tom. Dick or Henry any longer. Occa-
slonally one Of the dislllusioned men
finds more than sympathy from a
waiting div0rcee-and the new love Is
