To the Editor:
Having noted your great success In many In
stances Ia stopping abuses which exist. It strikes
me that there Is a good hold for your labor TO
abolish the practise (now very prevalent on
the east side Of the city, OF certain divorce law
yers. They have runners out In the neighbor-
hood Of the east side districts who stop at
nothing to get or make a case. more especially
among the non-American-speaking class. All
YOU have to do Ia to go to one OF those lawyers
with a slight excuse for n breach-o of promise
case; they will get the anndavits necessary to
throw the defendant In prison. giving straw
bonds uhey furnish them, and as the law re-
quircs a statement that the defendant Is about
to leave the State in order to get an order OF
arrest. they will advise you to swear TO that.
even though you know that there Is no such
intention. There are hundreds OF such cases
every month. but they never come TO trial. be-
Ing arranged in some way. and the lawyer gets
the best OF It. II the defendants knew their
rights and would fight there would be fewer OF
such cases. The business has gotten to be Of
such magnitude that the lawyers have printed
blanks. which they use. every anidavit being
similar. Even II the plaintiffs or defendants
have no money. they are urged to have their
friends come to the rescue, and II the lawyer
does not get 800 out Of It he will take anything
that IL offered. because II II all proat.

A new way Of solving the curtain
question hat Is certainly convenient
and by no means ugly, is to ave two
sets of sash curtains. one for the upper
and one for the lower half Of a window.
Both are hung on rod and consist OF
two parts, so that they can be parted In
the middle. The upper set should be
made long enough to fall about an inch
over the top of the lower set. They may
be made of muslin, silk or any other
fabric, with edges hemstitched, frilled
or trimmed with lace. The arrangement
Is a good one for small bedrooms or for
kitchen windows.

thirty horses in seven stalls, each stall to have
either a single horse or an odd number Of horses.
