A Wise Decision.

A girl in Iowa married a man for a
special pecuniary consideration, but
after a short time left him, alleging
that she couldn't live with a drunk
ard. Her husband died shortly after
wards and she sued the estate for the
benefit Of the contract, but the Su-
preme Court decides against her. II
finds that Johns incorporate habits
we're no worse after his marriage than
they were before and that Susan knew
as much about them before as she did
after. Under these circumstances the
Court holds that she was not justified
in leaving him and had not lived up
to her part Of the ante.nuptial agree
ment. Hence she was not entitled TO
the benefit Of it. "She chose drunk.
ard for her husband, says the opinion,
"and she ought to discharge the duties
of a drunkard's wife. She does not
show that her personal safety or even
her well-being required her to leave
him. She doubtless would have lived
more comfortably in the society Of a
sober man, but she ought to have con-
sidered, and doubtless did consider,
the discomforts ola drunken husband
when she married the intestate. But
she urges he promised reformation be.
fore marriage. His failure to keep
this promise did not justify her in de-
sertiDg him. All the world knows
that such promises made by drunk.
en- man are always broken. In few
words, as she knowingly married a
drunkard she must be content to be a
drunkard's wife," This pointed lee
ture doubtless left her sadder if not
wiser woman.
