feminine names have been derived
from this root and the same word has
supplied surnames without number.
1t is believed, therefore, that the
noted old gems Lucretius, from which
Lucretia is directly descended, was
only another of the derivatives of lux.
"Lucrece. combing the fleece under
the midnight lamp" the famous old
Roman tale, inspired Shakespeare to
write one of his earliest poems.
France has Lucrece which is pop
ular, and England imported Lucretia
In the Eighteenth century.
Lucretia's talismanic stone is the
red-hearted ruby. 1t has the power to
bring her strength of body, an In
vincible spirit and success In every
undertaking. Tuesday Is her lucky
day and her lucky number.

The Right Thing
at the Right Time

NARY MARSHALL DUFFEE

The old time idea was that Il woman
should never send out her own we'd
ding invitations even though she had
been married before and really pos
sessed no one who stood to her in the
place of a parent or guardian. But
good usage now permits a woman to
issue her own wedding invitations when
there Is no one who would convent
emily do this for her. To be sure, a
young woman would seldom do this,
but the privilege is not restricted to
women who have been married before.
However. when this is done the bride
does not have the invitations worded
thus: Miss June Smith requests the
honor of your presence at her mar
riage to Mr.. John Brown, but instead
she uses this wording: "The honor
of your presence is requested at the
marriage of Miss Jane Smith to
Mr.. John Brown on the afternoon, etc."
In the event that the bride has both
or either parents, their names would
most emphatically be used either in
the invitations or announcement of a
marriage. If n bride is motherless,
thSAA tAiS hAtotAolo VI announcements
are sent out in the name of the father.
However. If motherless bride is to
be married at the home of an aunt. then
the invitations are sent out in the
name of the aunt and her husband.
1t would be perfectly correct for
father. If he had no convenient home
of his own, to have his daughter mar
ried from a sisters home, when the
invitations would run:
Mr.. John Brown
requests the honor of your presence
at the marrige of his daughter
Jane Louise
to
Mr.. William Smith

at half past three

Mr.. and Mrs. Henry Brown

Then over rolled the poor, tired
Pencil sound asleep. while the Pen
holder and the Fountain Pen and the
big blue pencil looked sadly at their
misused companion and sighed.
This goes to prove what have al

SUGAR FIRM SUBMITS PROPOSAL.
Great Western Sugar Company Offers
Sliding Scale.

Great Western Sugar Company Offers
Sliding Scale.
Denver.-A contract for the pur-
chase of sugar beets in which the price
is to be based upon the market price
of sugar and upon the sugar content
OF the beets has been offered growers
by the Great Western Sugar Company.
The contract provides for an initial
payment of $3.50 ton upon delivery
oil the beets. The final price will de-
pend upon how much sugar the beets
yield and how much the company can
sell the sugar for.
As basis upon which the price may
be recokoned the company assumes an
average sugar content of 15k per cent
and an average market price of $3.50
bag. The payment to growers un-
der such conditions would be So ton.
If sugar prices soar or if larger
sugar content than 1917 per cent de-
velops the grower would receive high
er prices, ranging up to $10.69 for 1S
per cent beets with sugar selling at
$S bag,
Proportional reduction from the. IS
normal would be made if sugar prices
drop below $3.50 or if the beets aver
age less than 15h per cent sugar. In
no case, however. would the grower
receive less than $3.50 a ton.
The average net price of sugar re-
ceived by the company this year is
$3.50 bag. Last year the average
scaboard price, which does not vary
substantially from the net. was $3.50.
Contract labor in the fields this year
is expected to be obtained for t1S an
acre, against 500 last year.

Avoid "Smoker's Throat"

1t is often said that you do not get
oil of tobacco in cigars. This is a
mistake. The oil Is there and is no
more burnt away or evaporated than
in a pipe. 1t Is drawn to and con-
densed in the end of the cigar between
the lips of the smoker. For this rea-
son cigars should never be smoked to
the last inch. Certain connoisseurs
Will never smoke cigar more than
three-quarters of the way through.

LUCRETIA

HOUGH Lucretia was the name
1 borne by the notorious daughter
of the Borgia, 1t is one of the quaint
est and most old-fashioned Of names
in this country. 1t Is n far cry from
ancient Rome to modern New Eng
land, but the name has completed the
transition with very few changes TO
mark the stages of its evolution.
There are two theories among ETY.
mologists in regard to the original
source of Lucretia. Some contend that
n comes from the Latin word lucrum,
meaning gain" and, for that reason
Lucretia is said to signify gain. On
the other hand, there Is much evidence
to prove that its real source was IN
th., LatL word for light, lux. Aaahs
