A MOTHER SUES FOR HER CHILD
Mrs. l.. c. Wells Asks to BE Awarded
It's Custody.

Proceedings were instituted yesterday
by Louise &C. Wells against her former
husband. Fenton G. Wells. asking that a
decree of the court awarding Fenton the
custody of their child be revoked and that
she be awarded its custody.
1t is explained in the petition filed by
Mrs. Wells that in May, 1897, she and her
husband were divorced. The proceedings
were begun by her, but the separation
was granted on the cross-bill filed by
Wells, who alleged that his wife deserted
him. The decree of divorce obtained by
Wells stipulated that Mrs. Wells should
have the care and custody of their child
ly for its maintenance.
IL June. 1900. however, the decree was
modified giving the custody of the child
to the father and relieved him from the
further payment of $40 monthly to his
former wife.
1t was stipulated in the amended de-
zee. however, that Mrs. Wells should
nave the privilege of having her child in
her custody every other Saturday between
the hours of a. m and p. m
Mrs. Wells. declares. that without the
permission of the court, her former hus-
band has removed her child to Briggs
Clark county, Va So long as the child is
allowed to remain there she declares that
the privileges granted her in the amend
ed order of the court are heing denied
her and she asks that the decree of Octc-
Der "a. 1900, be annulled and declared void.
Mrs. Wells further states that she is
now residing at No 2l40 Pennsylvania
Avenue, and is amply able and willing to
provide for her child and asks the court
to again award her its custody. Henry E.
Davis and kirkwood Flora are named as
counsel for the petitioner.

ECZEMA,S
ITCH IS TORTURE.

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
Illumination little pustular eruptions form
and discharge thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and assured. Eczema in any
form is tormenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for as
long as the poison remains in the blood
it will keep the skin i..ritated.

once took Ouida in to dinner and how
disappointed he was to find that the
novelist devoted herself to the dishes
rather than to intellectual refreshment.
He said at last in despair at having
only been able to get "Yes" and "No"
in answer to the different subjects he
introduced: I'm afraid I'm singularly
unfortunate in my choice of topics. Is
there anything we could talk about to
interest you?"
To which the chroniclcr Of sOciety's
shortcomings replied: "There is one
thing which would interest me ve-y
much. Tell me about the duchesses. l
have written about them all my life
and never met one yet"
