The County Treasurer paid out
to the Judges of election for mil
eage, election house rentals, service
of judges and boards $647.48. Add
ing to this the cost of the ballots and

Speaking of politics, the Wayne
county Republicans are to bo con
gratulated upon the selection of
Hon. A. T. Searle as candidate for
JudKO. During his term" of service,
Judge Searle has made an enviable
reputation as a Jurist, not only in
his own county but In the c&urts of
Lackawanna and Susquehanna coun,
ties where he has frequently pre
sided with satisfaction. As the Re-
publican nomination in Wayne is
equivalent to an election at this
time, that county is' certain of a pre-
siding officer of unusual merit on
the bench. Stroller's Note Book,

him in the front rank of female im

types, and his work in the first act

of "sporting proclivities" Is as ar
tistic in its way as when In the sec-
ond act he Is called upon to appear
as a lady, as the "lady" Mr. John'
son will wear some of the most
beautiful gowns ever seen upon the
local stage, and his ball gown In the
third act will be called "a perfect

LAST.
Edward Matt, who was recently
married to 'Miss Gertrude Ellis, at

nearly the 'model husband as possi
ble. The guarantee, signed and wit
nessed by a notary, promised:
" She may do as she pleases. She
is free to go and come when she
likes, to go with whom she chooses
and I win not be Jealous. I will not
go gunning for a fellow because he
admires her beauty, and because she
smiles when he speaks to her. I will
not interfere with any of her plans.
" I will be kind and good to her.
I will give her all my earnings, and
it will be her privilege to do with
my Income as she likes, so long as
she feeds me well.
" When we have a surplus and It
goes to the bank, I agree not to
hold the keys. The checks may be
signed by either of ua. I agree to
come home at a proper hour each
night or give her a valid excuse.
" And I further agree that I will
let her get a divorce If I fail to
behave as a kind, loving; gentle, con
siderate husband should."
When the guarantee had been duly
placed on record, the couple sought
a minister and were married.

ROME THAT WERE MARRIED IN
SEPTEMBER.
Dan Cupid could make no head
way among the husbandmen of
Wayne county during the month of
September! not a single farmer being
included among the fifteen bride
grooms who applied to Clerk of the
Orphans' Court M. J. Hanlan for
license to marry.
Whether thiB alarming falling off
In the number of matrimonial appli
cants was due to the fact that the
farmers were too husy cutting corn
and digging potatoes to think on
these things, or whether their spare
time o'nlghts was spent at the corn
er grocery store talking over the
Judgeship fight Instead of In their
sweetheart's parlors holding sweet
converse on love and life and happi
ness, can not .be ascertained. It Is
expected however that, since the po
litical situation nas Been cianneu oy
the results of the primary election,
Darby and Joan will again turn their
thoughts lightly to the ruling pas
sion, and once more as of yore, by
the dim and flickering light of the
kerosene lamp, study the mall-order
house catalogues to learn the prices
of furniture, stoves and the likes of
that.
It was a remarkably youthful bevy
of brides that promised to love and
to obey (sic) their partners. Their
average age was twenty-three and
8-15 years. The youngest two were
only nineteen years old, and the old
est one had only passed thirty-three
summers. Only three of the fifteen
brides were more than twenty-five
years of age.
The average age of the bride
grooms was twenty-six and 11-15
vears. The youngest two were
twenty-two years old. Five were be
tween 22 and 25 years of age, and
the oldest bridegroom was thirty-
six.
As far as occupations Is concerned,
the school marmB had the call
amonE the bride3. two of them re-
linquishing the charms of Instructing
the youth of the land for the more
congenial task of making life worth
living for two young bachelors. One
was a domestic. Another was a
dressmaker. A third was a silk
weaver. Still another was a house.
keeper, and the remainder gave their
occupation as " at home."
Among the bridegrooms the glass
cutters easllv took the lead, three of
their number being employed at that
occupation. Besides that there were
two glass blowers, so that really one
third of the bridegrooms were en
gaged in the manufacture of cut
glass, that kind or dinnerware so
dear to the feminine neart, ana on
so dear to the masculine purse!
The Fourth Estate was represent
ed hy a "newspaper writer." Shades
of Horace Greeley! What is a
"newsnaner writer?" Then there
was one butcher, one grocer, mighty
useful occupations in these days
when the cost of living Is mounting
skyward so rapidly. There was
laundryman, too, an engineer,
knitter, a clerk, a lumberman, a
laborer and a rural letter carrier.
Honesdale girls took the prize for
furnishing one-third of all the Sep
tember brides. Hawley was a close
second, four maidens forsaking the
paternal rooftree, to go out and help
to make another home. Only one of
the fifteen brides came from another
county, and she came from Carbon-
dale, which Is after all only a sunuru
of Honesdale!
Other Interesting features of the
month's marriages included one
couple, second cousins, who paid no
heed to the old couplet, " that to
marry for the name, and not for the
letter, is to marry for the worse and
not for the better." And then there
was one divorcee. Four of the brides
were older than their husbands.
Five of the bridegrooms came from
other counties. Two hailed from
Lackawanna county. One came
from Cornwall, N. Y. Another lived
In Brooklyn, N. Y. Pike county even
sent a representative.
These are the ages of the contract

SOME REASONS WHY
BECAUSE it is the Strongest Life 'ijisurnnco Company in the World,
having nearly 100 million dollars Surplus to policy-holders. $00,
013,018. BECAUSE the profits of Uio Company go to the Policy Holders and
not into tlio pockets of rich stockholders.
BECAUSE Uio dividends paid to policy-holders have increased nearly
100 per cent, in the Inst six years nnd this year amounts to more
than 13 million dollars. No other Company can show such an In
crease, or so largo an amount impropriated for dividends to policy
holders in 1011.
It is the Oldest Life Insurance Company in tlio United States, having
08 years of experience and 573 Millions of Dollars back of its poli
