| BAKING POWDER TLE STAR Victims of Divorce The superintendent of Ohio's state reformatory announces that 50 per cent of the boys in his charge are the victims © divorce, and it is likely that all the other similar institutions of the couritry contain a high percentage of such victims, | The trouble with these boys is that they couldn't select their parents, and the state—society—was indifferent in re spect of such selection, Doubtless the state makes 4 has started wrong, than do quarreling indiv who marry really burden themselves with responsibility to the state, and it does not look reasonable to require the state to bear all the cost of caring for children left dereli¢t by di owing out of the usual causes. a wore basi divorce is granted, the court seldom, if ever, re quires bond for proper raising of the children, or any wen nity against the state’s being forced to care for them ne court merely severs the existing marit parties to make new unions and breed more charges for the 10 handle. : rhe court may “soak” the husband for big alimony, lest the wife may suffer, but there’s no consideration for the financial burden thrown upon the state, Why not take from the fellow who “buys his freedom” in the divorce court, as is often the case, a little alimony for the taxpayers who have to support state institutions for the reform of victims of divorce? a better parent, after the boy iduals, but people It Stirs Em Up The Archbishop of York is making artistocratic England pay attention, by expatiating, for the benefit of the idle rich, upon that parable about the camel and the needie’s eye and other good things from the Bible tending to show that all of tis must apply to St. Peter at the gate shorn of stocks, bonds, quitelaim deeds and other impediments. ! The good archbishop has already got Lords Bentink, Shaftesbury, Methuen and Avebury warmly interested in the Land and Home League, an organization which declares that 90 per cent of the drunkenness and crime in J ngland is due to bad housings and bad surroundings and which proposes to get hold of land for better homes for the working people. ‘That any part of the clergy should go off on the slant of Chancellor Lioyd-George’s land reform schemes tremendously }shocks the big landowners, who are one of the heavy curses } fand. : Oe baceiassie-tol movement in Britain radically differs from such an enterprise in America, as there is little soil to back to save that held by titled individuals who have ac j quired it by divine right of inheritance.

BUT considering the many friends these Pianos will ntake for us we are going to be satisfied with avery small profit on each of these 200 old established, well known, standard make of Pianos which we have agreed to sell within the next six weeks Guaranteed for 10 Years This Piano is guaranteed for ten years, not only by us but the manufacturers” guarantée is cast in the metal frame of the instrument above their signature. Now this 10-year guarantee does not mean that the piano will only last 10-years, for a piano of this grade will last for 50 years if properly cared for. But the 10-year guarantee does mean that if the instrument proves defective in either workiaanship or j material within a period of 10 years from date of purchase that it will be properly re- a paired at our expense, or replaced with a new instrument of same make and grade. NO INTEREST No interest will be charged on any contract made for the purchase of any one of these instruments between now and December Ist. Regular Price $375.00 __ These pianos have been continuously manufactured by their present manufacturers since 1850, and are recognized everywhere as standard high grade instruments and are sold throughout the entire East by reliable dealers at $375 and are considered and ac- knowledged to be good values at that price by customers and dealers alike. Terms $1.50 Per Week The Bush & Lane Piano Co. of Chicago are manufacturers and have a large and well equipped factory, but their trade this year has been such that they have not been able to supply the great demand upon their factory, and not wishing to lose dealers, whom they have supplied for years, they have been compelled to purchase pianos from other factories for their various agencies, and in order to get these pianos at such prices as they knew to be right, they being manufacturers themselves, they ‘have had to buy in very large quantities, which they have done in this case, and which makes it possible to carry out their well-known policy of quick sales and small profits, and for this reason this $375 piano is to be sold during the next six weeks at $262.50, Terms $1.50 Per Week Tt is our aim to make it possible for anyone, who is desirous of owning a piano, to be able to take advantage of this splendid opportunity and purchase one of these high grade pianos at the price they would ordinarily pay for a cheap instrument, and for that reason we have made the terms on these pianos as low as $1.50 per week, which is no more than you would have to pay for rent if you were renting a new instrument of this grade. Privilege of Exchange Knowing these pianos as we do, we see no reason why anyone should wish to make an exchange of this instrument so long as an upright piano would be satisfactory in the home, but for fear it might be their desire to do so, we will agree, by written con- tractyto grant the privilege to the purchaser, to, at any time within a period of two yeats, exchange this piano for any new upright, Grand or Player Piano of equal or greater value, sold by us at time of exchange, we allowing all payments made on this piano to apply on the purchase price of instrument exchanged for.
