OF her husbands ill Treatment of
her:
She said that she WAS running
across the room with fork in her
hand, when he jumped in the way
and struck his wrist against the
fork, wrenehing it from the grip
10y the tines, which he had run into
his wrist. Then he undertook to
strike her, but she beld up a pan of
bot dish-water between them aud
he split it all over his head. Thep
lle got still more angry at this ac-
cldent, and started to jump at her,
but his headcane against her hand
and he fell down. She took hold
OF his hair TO raise him, but it was
so moistened by the hot water
that ii came of.
Then che saw that it was no use
TO reason E2) with him any longer,
and she left the house.
