The Man With Eleven Wives.

wives. Why this person, who is no
longer young, aud who has no physical
or mental attractions beyond the reach
of ordinary men. should have been per-
mitted To secure eleven wives, cannot
he successfully explained. The majori-
" of men are more than satisfied with
one wife. MANY estimable gentlemen
have no wife At all And vet this aged
and battered man, hsiling from no
where, and utterly destitute. so far as
known, of any OF those qualities which
are popularity supposed 20 recommend

A man who is convicted of having been

hausted his privileges. just Us n man
with q million of money Is rich, and the

Without Intending 10 prejudice tho

he is not Marvin, it must be said that
the real offender in the ease is a man
of infinite resources and gifted with
and unusual knowledge OF
the female heart. Marvin, il appears.
has married eleven wives without
wasting any time in courtship. The
