HUsBAND-L0VER REJECTED.
A Georgia Womau's Romantic
Mind Craved a Divorced.
Publisher Byrd's Attempts to Again
Woo Her Met with Refusal.

A romantic story reached its climax
during the visit TO this city last week
Of Charles +. Byrd, an Atlanta pub
Usher. only a month ago he had OBJ
tanned u divorce from his wife. who had
lived In this city since January. 1893.
Mrs. Byrd was suffering from physl-
cal ailment and came here for treat
rnent She was nervous and highly ro-
mantle in disposition and became af-
fiictod with mania as the outcome of
her condition. treatment OF which had
to be abandoned. Part OF her magma
tive trouble seemed to be that she had
ceased to love her husband and de-
sired IA divorce.
Her husband argued that there was no
ground for a suit on either side, so she
conceived the idea OF giving a semblance
OF guilt to an act on her part which
would, enable Mr.. Byrd to bring an ac-
ton. In furtherance OF this plan she
urged Mr.. Rockwell, the business part
ner of her husband. to engage room
at the st. George Hotel in Brooklyn and
10 register there as man and wife
Mr. Rockwell, knowing her malady
consented, but left the room Immediately
"t'ei eScoTtins her 10 It, shortly after
wards they returned to the Wiseiger
House. where Mrs. Boyd lived with her
mother. to whom she told what had been
done. Boyd satisfied himself that no in.
suit had been offered and placed his
Wife IN private insane asylum at Am.
UyViiie. where she remained three
months.
At the end of that time Mrs. BOYD
agreed to return to Atlanta but wher
she reached this city she declined to 20
back to her husband and threatened 70
commit suicide unless he procured a dl
Vorce. The decree was granted In July
! Last week Mr.. Byrd came on to renew
his suit for his divorced wife's affections
| and courted her with the ardor of q
young lover She received his advances
with apparent favor until he made q
formal proposal. Then she became
stony and persistently refused to re-
marry him. in spite of his pleadings anc

Lazy Habits Are Deforming.

Easy shoes, loose clothing and neg
lige generally are bad for the figure.
The shoe dealers say, MY dear woman,
II you will run slipshod about the
house. don't expect to be comfortable
and graceful in boots. trim shoes OF
tight slippers. The foot spreads in old
leather, the joints stifren and nice foot
wear becomes distressing"
The corset-maker with her exquisite
French figure, says, mon dieu! Take
on the stays at home? Well. have II
so, and be clumsy, graceless, shapeless. "
The modiste says, You can form the
figure as you like, but unfasten. unite
the regulation toilet, put on sacks and
skirts tn save the costume. and you dc
save It to get old style-and you deform
Your best self"

WHITE SHOES AND WHITE WINGS.

That was a stubborn bride ut Bloom
field who. while on her way to the
church, discovered that in her excite
ment she had forgotten to put on her
white shoes. She had white Swiss
dress on and a long white VEIL as well
as some other things. but these did not
satisfy her. The party had to drive
back to the house and wait for her TO
don the white shoes
She was very foolish bride. and the
bridegroom would have been justified
under the circumstances In making her
walt until she had grown white wings
to match the shoes. All brides are
supposed to be angelic and pretend TO
have the white wings. but 1t is evident
the Bloomfield bride didn't know what
wings were or how to grow them.

Restful sleep renews the life.
Turpentine is a sure exterminator Of
bedbugs.
Never sleep with the face turned to-

Never have children habituaily sleep
with older persons.
Pure air Is fully as important in Sleep
Ing as in waking hours.
"One bed for one person." Is the best
rule for health and comfort.
Study common sense and comfort
rather than custom and fashion.
Never set bed in the corner of q
room; there should be open space on at
least three sides.
Sleep is natures season OF repair: the
more quiet and unbroken the sleep, the
more perfect its work.
Feather beds are not only unwhole-

Costly Black Kid Gloves,

Black kid gloves are the costliest
stock in hosiery. The dye rots the skins
no matter how fine they may be in quail
ity. 1t is for this reason that small
dealers carry a limited stock. White or
colored gloves may be put away with
reasonable safety, but black kid gloves
dry up. crack and become worthless in
short while. Women who have q
fancy for black kid gloves should buy
them as required. Like butter. the
