Mr.. EDIToR:-l see in your last paper notice of
two men advertising their wives as having left their
bed and board with just causc.-It appeared TO me
that this was doing great injustice to these women
For what wife would leave her husband who was
well treated and had good home. In regard to one
of these cases have some knowledge and know that
the wife is very good woman, who cares for the Bible
and the Sanctuary, and which probably is the chief
il not the whole cause of the difficulty. How can
two walk together except they be agreed. Ii one
loves the Bible and the other hates it, if one loves the
sanctuary and the other hates it, and orbils his wife
to go to it, aud also lorbds her reading the Bible
what is to be done? l. it right for such man to
publish TO the world that his wife has left him with
out Just cause. For one | pity such women and
detest such men,
