SLAVE PRICE BOOSTED TO $3l,0O0 BY WIFE
And Even Then Ardella Must Have
 Time To Write Poetry

HAVERHILL, Mass, Sept. 1.-Mrs. Annie McCoin, who few days ago advertised her husband for sale into slavery. has revised her ideas or what is proper work for a slave.
 She claims she has received 40 offers for Ardella's services, but now she has decided that the lowest she will take for him is about $S1,000, provided the bidder assures her Ar della can realize his lifelong ambf- ton to have enough leisure to write poetry.
 Ardella, who is 50 six feet tall and heavy in proportion, has not been working for months. His trade IS shoe packing and life has not fitted him for anything else, he says, except poetry.
 Mrs. McCoin now says that 1t Is not because Ardella needs a Job or be- cause they are starving that she ad- vertised her husband for sale. al though that was the basis of her appeal In the newspapers, but be- cause he wants to write poetry. Ar della Is a splendid husband. his wife testified, and Is worth $100,000, but she thought she would take $31, 1,000 under certain conditions.

CHORUS GIRL MAKES MARK IN TEN WEEKS
Jean Brown, Unknown. Now Is a
 Real Leading Lady

{ NEW YORK, Sept. This is the tale of Broadway chorus girl who struggled her way from the chorus row to the leading part of one of the big musical hits of the season in 10 weeks.
 She is Jean Tennyson. of Chicago, protege of Mrs. J. ogden Armour. who, for three years, beat constant managers offices. They wouldn't have her.
 So she stifled her pride and joined the chorus ot "Adrienne," playing at the George II. Conan theatre, as Jean Brown, unknown. Miss Brown never before had danced, but she mastered her steps in 8 hurry.
 Then every night after the gruel- ling work of the chorus, new to her, was over, she declined the purported wine and spice of the gay white way, and went to her home, where she rehearsed the songs of the prin- cipals of the show until she fell into her bed, weeping in desperation and exhaustion.
 She haunted the entrance onto the stage at every performance, learning the lines of the principals. though she was not listed as an understudy.
 The leading lady left the show ~ MISS soH "Hneu AOA u !aA. iHS managers listened to her voice, and the tide turned. She went on" in the next performance without an or chestra rehearsal. At the end of the first act a contract awaited her sig nature. Even the company applauded at the conclusion of her brilliant performance
 It was then she confided that she never before had spoken a line on the stage. Her voice had been trained for opera, but she took the only avenue open after long life of rebuffs.
 T knew every part in the show so perfectly that 1 could have gone on for the comedian" she said with just bit of Justified pride last night between acts.
 She is as happy as a school girl. It Is the tale of Broadway chorus girl who went right"

The West End shops had seen the best August in their history The good weather helped brighten the last weeks of summe, in the British metropolis.
 The merchants and railways early in the season got together and de- cided to boom London as an admirabl place for a holiday. Apparently the provincials have found it so. for daily they have been packing every Lon don-bound train.
