Nery tIuly yours,
HENRY CHAMBERLAIN,

The Detroit Evening News says IN New
York on Friday, N the Cooper Marshall di
vorce case. Mrs. Cooper admitted that when
her husband came home drunk to her she used
to go through his pockets for what money he
had in his pockets. The counsel fox the hus
band tried TO set up that this was theft. but
Referee Barbour laid it down as principle
that any wife has right. IN law. to take money
out of her drunken husbands pocket. Married
men who get drunk may take this TO heart.
They will either no, 90 home till they have
spent every cent in whisky, or they viii reform
and give to their wives the money which other
wise would be spent in debauchery. Here is
another strong argument in favor OF temper
ance to add to that derived from the danger OF
sunstroke.
