Instead of getting on his hind feet and making the hills re verberate with Jealous rage, he had a friendly talk with Thompson, said he was tired of his wife, anyhow, and he would as lief some other fellow would take her away as not. Howev er, as It was no snap to go out aud find some other fellow to take her place on the spur of the moment, and it was absolutely necessary to have one around in the house, he wanted an other lu exchange Thompson had a daughter who suited him very well, and if it was lust the same, he was willing to trade his wife for her.
