Q. —I did a great wrong to a good woman when I divorced
my first wife and married again. I ran after this second woman
for four years. Now ray own children won't speak to me, and
of course I cannot blame them. One more thing I did. The in
surance I had taken out to benefit my first wife and children
I transferred to the second. She has no children, so some of
my money may go to her relatives. Is there anything I can do
to atone for this wrong? CONTRITE.
A.—This letter tells Its own story. This man sees his error too
late for reparation. Sorrow has left it_ mark too deeply on the
heart of the injured wife to he erased. He may liave the insurance
put back in her name. He may give iwoperty to his children, pro
vided lie does not do another wrong by depriving the second wife of
that which is legally hers. He may, in sorrow, confess to his family
his regret over what he has done, and they may forgive lilin. Hut
nothing can atone for the years that are lost, nor bring back the hap
plnesN Which has gone with them

A Burroughs Visible Adding Machine
Fits All Lines of Business
This Burroughs is designed especially to
meet the need for a low-priced, easily-operat
ed figuring machine.
Retail merchants are using these machines
right on the counter for adding cash and
charge sales. Wholesalers, manufacturers
and even bankers find many uses for this
model. -
You can't afford to do figure work by the
slow, inaccurate mental method when you can
get a Burroughs for $125 —and on easy terms,
if desired —to do the work better and quicker.
We haye recently established an agency in
Tacoma and we will be pleased to have you
call up our office and talk with us about the
possibilities of applying a Burroughs to your
work.

Old Chief Charles Satiacum,

delegate to the third annual pow

Chief Satiacum is ips years

government appeased the Sound

The Indians gathered yesterday
for two days' pow-wow to object
to the failure of the government
to comply with these treaties.
Chief Satiacum was one of the
most enthusiastic objectioners.
That is, he was until the Sells
weekly man appeared with the
camera.
The old chief forgot justice,
fish, clams aud his constituents
near Reuton. The memory of
Chief Seattle slipped from him,
and he fell for the flicker game.
Leaning* on his trusty cane, he
posed first on one foot, then on
the other, and would just as soon
have gone on posing for hours if
it hadn't been that there was im

allotment of lands granted them
by the government, and of tho
gradual usurpation of their re
serves. He suggested the elec

Indian be given a square deal.
