No better evid,-nee ot the prosperity
of those engaged in agricultural pur
suits is nee lid than to witness the
showing of wealth at tlie various State
fairs this season. Chicagoans who at
tended the annual shows at Iowa,
Minnesota, Wisconsin. Indiana. Ohio
and Kentucky have returned with the
most cheering rejiorts of prosperity in
the farming districts as was well shown
by the increased attendance at each of
the State fairs as compared with recent
years.
Practically all of the State shows this
year hail greater numbers of rural vis
Itors than have ever attended before.
Were the farmers a little pinched for
money doubtless many of them would
have remained away from their State
fairs, viewing a few days' study and
pleasure as a luxury which they could
not afford. This year, however, the
farmers turned out in record numbers,
and spent more money than in former
years.—Goodall's Farmer.

Divorces«
“The underlying reason why so much
time usually elapses between the tiling
of petition anil the heartn g or trial in
divorce proceedings is not generally un-
derstood,” remarked a lawyer who
makes a socially of this character of
practice. "Perhaps it is within the cir-
cle of truth to say that in a majority
of cases, if either husband or wife,
whichever side be plaintiff, should ‘stop,
look, and listen,' as it were, the trouble
would be adjusted out of court entirely.
"As a rule, Judges are inclined to
afford ample time for domestic partners
to ponder well before pursuing further
toward legal redress for matrimonial
difficulties. ‘Divorce in haste and re
pent at leisure' Is a logical paraphrase.
Of course, if after mature reflection a
different opinion does not ensue, the av
erage jurist would favor progressing
the suit.”
