SEABOARD BUYING FORCES WHEAT UP AT SHARP ADVANCE

(By Associated Press) CHICAGO, March 3. Active buying on the part of houses-with a seaboard connection carried wheat prices today sharply higher. Improvement In railway traffic conditions gave encouragement to the bulls, and so too did proBpects that the arming of American 6hips would soon provide a greater cutlet for the export trade. Only a transient setback in values resulted from reports of heavy snow falls in Kanses. Opening quotations, which ranged from the same as yesterdays finish to c higher with May at $1.844 to $1.85)4 and July at I1.56H to $1.66, were followed by a moderate sag and then a substantial advance all around. New high record prices quickly appeared in the corn crowd. Fresh advances in the hog market were reported. After opening H to c up the market dipped on account of profit taking, but rallied In short order. Oats ascended with other grain. Trade showed much more volume than of late has been the rule. Provisions mounted to an unprecedented level. Urgency of foreign needs received special notice and there was a continuance of the hog shortage.

Child-Bride Divorces Second Mate; Court Refuses to Prohibit Third Step

Georgia Jones, 17, was granted a divorce from Bessel Jones in circuit court today. This represents the close of a pretty girl's second venture on the seas of matrimony. January 25, 1913, the marriage of the same girl to Benjamin F. Hens' y was annulled in Wayne circuit court after it had been shown that the bride was only 12 years old. At that time she was known as Georgianna Doyle. Deputy Prosecutor Walter Lewis asked Judge Fox during the progress of the trial this morning to restrict both parties of the divorce suit from getting married for two years. The child wife testified that her husband is twenty or twenty-one years old. and that they were married two years ago. Cruel treatment was the charge on which the suit was brought. Lewis Pleads for Restriction. "I am informed that both want the divorce so that they can get married again," said Lewis. "The girl could wait a. couple of years and still be young enough to marry again." .Judge Fox In keeping with his long established policy, refused to add the restriction. - "It's no use," said the judge of twenty-one years' experience. "Restrictions only add unnecessary com

plications. If they want to get married, they will despite all a court could do. The parties could go to other state3 and get married just the same and it would be perfectly legal." Great interest was manifested at the time the marriage of the twelve-year old girl was annulled in 1913. This action of the court eame after a specia. grand jury investigation of the case.

Sales

No. we don't believe in those special sales that repeat themselves week after week, and we never will believe in them until we see them underselling US, which is not yet. All furniture dealers have to pay the same price for the same lines. Therefore it is absurd for any one dealer to claim that he can sell furniture for half as much as others can. Prices vary at the different stores, but they don't vary much. The difference is in the quality. Here we have a combination of advantages that no other store can claim. We are an old established house. We have hundreds of regular customers. We have the largest exclusive furniture store in the city. We pay less rent than any similar house- about one-tenth as much as some of them, in fact. And we spend nothing in preparation and advertising for special sales All in all we save you 10 to as much as 20, and we do it NOT by increasing but by DECREASING the cost of selling. We Prepay the Freight on Out-of-Town Shipments.
