If there is a firm which buys wives

dogs and 8 cats, along with her and
whoever buys her will get att of these
things throwed in for nothing, her
mother is a verry good worker, but a
heavy eater, the dogs and cats and

.Thirty-Five Years Ago.
1. Women were*&s much cotton in
their bustles es they wear in an en
tire ensemble today, plus about 3
pounds.
2. Only about 2 percent of the rural
population had ever seen or tasted-
lightbread. Nearly all of them eat
it now—’cause their women folks ar€
too tired or two lazy to cook biscuits.
m-
the party i have in mind mought
aell his wife for a right smart less
than 700$ for cash, and if insallments
waa desired for, say 200$, you can
just say that anny reasonable arrange
ments will be o. k. she is in fine
health and the only thing in the world
that you could object to is—she has
_to wear 2 pairs of specks.
3. A young lady felt eternally dis
graced if she became the victim of an
accident that permitted even the lower
edges of her knees to be seen by a
man. Today modesty extends to a
point barely within the law. The
fewer and thinner be her clothes, the
finer she is dressed.

THE MOST
POWER i
if 700$ seems too high for yore
agency, i will go into negotiations
with them, but at this time, i can’t
tell them who it is that dsires to dis
pose of his help-mate, she is verry
gentle, sleeps well, eats whatever is
pet befoar her. attends church, and
ia sattisfied with ordinary clothes, but
ms stated above, i can’t give you the
name of the man who wants to sell
hia wife.
she is 5 feet 6, wears a no. 7 shoe,
weigh 83 pounds, stands erect, no
warts anywhere’s on her excepp her
nose and the back of her nake, black
hair, blue eyes, sunburnt complexion,
small ears, and is uaeter going with
out stockings, but wears year-hobs all
of the time, she is easy to get along
with if you let her have her way all
of the time and don’t talk hack to her.

8 children by her first husband, 4
4. If a man failed to pay a bank
note on the day of its maturity, he
was counted undependable by his fel
low-men. Today if he pays them at
all, he waits a few days; and some
times—he- forgets them entirely—and
thus becomes a rather shrewd business
man, so he thinks-.

5. It was customary and generally
necessary for the son to get permis
sion from the father to use old “Pete*
and the buggy once a week. Now
dear old father has to beg darling son
ny with tears in his eyes if he gets
to ride 2 or 3 miles a week in his own
car.
6. A young damsel who saw fit
to paint her cheeks and powder her
nose (and incidentally wear a split
skirt) was locked down upon, and
shunmii by everybody except the
other girl who* went with her and a
few bad boys who sneaked around oc-
caeionally in the night-time. Now-

7. Neighbors and kinfolks visited
I one another and were welcome. A
corpse never had a chance to get
lonesome, as friends of the family
sat up with him or her all night. Doc
tors carried their soda and pills and
calomel with them, and drug stores
had to sell something for a living. It
.was safe to loan a fellow a dollar.
Nobody knew how to drive a car or
answer a te ephone or talk over the
radio. Yep, folks—times were like
that 35 years ago, but they are much
better today—because they have
changed.

Urely-nrw forFIiT zone, observes a
writer in the Kansas City Star. In
general It la a tropical country,
subtropical and temperate areas in the
South and In the central plateau re
gion. The forest-covered lowland val
ley of the Amazon is a region of high
temperatures which vary little through
out the year. There Is no appredabl
change of season except in the va
ation of rainfall. The coastal plains
lying between the plateaus and the sea
are subject to high temperatures and
humidity as far south as Santo*.
The varied rainfalls are on$ of the
peculiarities of the climate of torrid
Brazil. Whereas three years may pass
in the northern state of Gears without
rain, other sections are drenched for
months with tropical downpours. The
country is fortunate In being free from
the earthquakes and hurricanes so
common along the great Cordillera
from Chile to Mexico and in the Carib
bean countries.
