No coffee of equal quality can be sold in this town for the same price, whether it be sold out of a bag or a bin, or under some romantic trade-mark. You may tell them you know and that Arbuckle Brothers, the greatest coffee dealers in the wor!d, will stand for it. ARBUOKLE BROS., New York City.

Springtield, Mo., April 27.—George Reiser, a farmer who lives near Mans- field in Wright county, came to Springfield last Saturday {n search of awife. He went to an employ- ment agency and the manager of the bureau told Reiser he could provide him a wife for $10. Mrs. Mary Pierce had asked the employment agent to find her a husband. When Reiser appeared Mrs. Plerce, who obtained a divorce from her first husband last September, was notified by telephone. She called at the employment office and after an hour’s conversation with Releer, in which 1 was agreed that Mrs. Plerce should have the privilege of taking her four children to Refser’s home, the couple were married in the employment office. An hour later Relser told his bride that he was busy with his spring plowing and must hurry home. He sald he would go home and have the place prepared for her reception. She has heard nothing from him since and she took legal steps to ob- tain halt her busband’s property. Relser was a widower and fs thefath- er of three or four grown sons. The bride of five days believes that the sons have objected to their father’s marriage because he {s 62 years old and that they have turned him against her. Y-a-s to Be Sure.
