at 10 cents a pound. This is a de-

Eggs look as though they might
rise through an advance OF one

String beans are offered at five
cents, and the general price on

The curtain rose on the last act
OF the play and, as Bah had pre-
dicted, the man had chosen wife
and respectability. This gave
him chance to do some splendid
emotional acting in a scene with
his discarded light-of-love.
Every one unwittingly drew
sigh OF relief when the curtain
went down and by silent consent
Judge Turner was allowed to sum
up the entire case in the words
