ALL BETS ARE OEF, SAYS BOALT, BUT MRS. JONES’ HOME WILL BE BUILT BY FRED L. BOALT, All bets are off. The North American Life man has welshed. He bet me $1,000 could be raised to buy Mrs. Jones, scrubwoman and mother of 20, a home of her own. T bet it couldn't. Mr. George A. Neops, of the Par affine Paint Co, came along last week with a reof and interior walls, all complete and installed, for Mrs. Jones’ home. Now comes the Puget Sound Building Co, with front and back doors, including locks and hinges. Now, the North American Life man takes the perfectly unreason able view that roofs, interior walls and doors are just as good as money on the ridiculous ground that such things cost money and that, if they weren't given, we'd have to buy ‘em, But I stood by the terms of the wager, which were that $1,000 —not building material—could be Dr. L.

Fund Bigger Yet. The fun is swelled today by a pool made by a number of tenants on the second floor of the Lumber | Exchange, where Mrs. Jones is em: ployed. The contributors to the pool are: Dr, Lovering $2.50, R. C. Swinburne $1, “Cash” 50 cents, Bd )8. Sears $2.50, F. M. Keller $2.60 | Shamek Brors, $5, and ‘Cash" $1.50. Ed, 5. Sears sends a check for $10 and “heartily endorses your suggestion that Mra, Jones be given @ life interest in the home and the title then be vested in some char itable institution.” These, together with other cash contributions, gives a neat total of $381.90, and a lot of people we know of are holding off a while but who have promised to give sub- stantial amounts when the fund has passed the $500 mark. As stated several days ago, a car penter has offered to put in a week's work building the house and @ laborer has promised to spade the garden.
