of the salmon leaping up the smooth
waterfall. There is lightning quick
strike and che struggling silver beauty,
safely speared, is drawn to land to be
unjavelined and the spear is ready for
another victim.
The best salmon spears are fitted
with barbed hooks and the fish is
gated, rather than speared. The hook
comes off the end of the shaft and
bangles on cord tied to the pole.
This, the Indians point out, prevents
breakage of the shaft when thirty
or forty pound fish is taken.
Sometimes lozen big salmon will
be hooked by one Indian in day. Al.
other times days pass without catch.
But the redmen never complain about

London.-The price of wives is ad
vancing. Within the last few weeks
London divorce courts have awarded
damages to husbands against core
spondents to the tune of $4,000 and
$4,000, and lastly, few days ago
husband was awarded $4,000.
The $4,000 went to George Edgar
Ingman, an estate agent and surveyor
of Worcester, who obtained a divorce
from his wife, daughter of a wealthy
man, on the ground of misconduct
with Captain Neel Pearson, formerly
of The Birches, Hagley, near Birming-
ham. Mr.. Ingman announced in adj
vance that he would not retain the
award, but would use it as a fund for
his daughter by the erring wife. A
similar declaration was made by the
husband who received the award Of
$4,000.
In 1905 Demetrius Sophocles Con-
stantinidi received an award of $685.
600 against "a Doctor Lance in an
English court. The $4,000 received
by Mr.. Ingman equaled any record
made since then.
English judges have wide latitude
in addressing the jury in both civil
and criminal cases. Suits for divorce
are combined with suits against the
correspondent for loss of the wife's
services, under the English procedure.
1t is not unusual for judge in sum-
ming up to remark, in effect. that
after hearing the evidence the jury
might conclude that the husband. in
stead of obtaining damages, should
thank the correspondent for relieving
him of worthless wife, and the jury
ordinarily reacts to the sentiments
expressed by the judge because they
heard the evidence when he did.
The general rule seems to be that
the husband is entitled to damage, If
the wife was real helpmeet, but to
refuse them If she was nagger and
handicap instead of helpmeet. The
.corespo ldent is punished not for
adultery but on the old theory that
wife is, or should be, useful around the
house and In assisting her husbands
