CEMENT, PLASTER, BUILDING MATERIAL Foolish Remark Cost Him a Fortune. In his highly diverting article on “The Light Side of Finance” Mr. Harry Furniss relates in the Strand | Magazine the following story which is better than any sermon on the foolishness of belng impollte. A very rich member of the aristo- eracy without heirs or relatives of | any kind had taken a fancy to anac- | quaintance and in time accepted him asa guide, philosopher and friend. He eventually made a will leaving his acquaintance his entire property.

Of course after you use it and it has been in your building, sidewalk or foundation a few years you can tell whether you bought the wrong cement or not. But do you want to wait until you have built your house to find out if the cement that went in your foun- dation was good or bad? WE THINK YOU DO NOT.

Seligman, a repre- sentative of the department of jus- tice presented his conclusions {n the Castellane-Sagan suit {n favor of the defendant. On December 30 of last year the French court handed down adecision that the three sons of Count Bont de Castellane remain in the custody of their mother, the princess de Sagan, formerly Miss Anna Gould. The Count however, appealed from this decleion in May of this year and his appeal has since een argued. : M. Seligman sald that the evidence submitted showed that the Princess De Sagan had been frreproachable before her marriage, and that she had since remained a good wife and mother. Consequently he recom- mended that this court confirm the decision of the lower court, giving her the custody of the children, The formal dectston will be render- ed May 26. True Bunce Strikes It Rich. Cashier C. T. Bunce, of the Mineral Belt Bank at Webb City, has become @ mine operator by accident. While drilling a deep well for his waterworks system at his new coun- try home at Thomas Hill near Lake- aide, rich zinc ore was{struck at 218 feet and the drill continued in it at 230 feet and is going down. The strike has caused no little ex- celtement in that neighborhood, and there is already a scramble after leases. This is the first ore ever found in that vicinity and the ground has never been prospected at @ depth of more than 100 feet. Mr. Bunce will, of course, continue the drilling to determine the extent ofthe ore on his ground. He has five acres.—Joplin Globe. Mr. Bunce, or “True” as we know him here, is an old Sheldon boy. He was bank examiner when Sam B- Cook was secretary of state. Mine Starting off In Fine Order.
