is safe to assume that that employer

In support of his plea the nus band'>

that IA woman can live nicely ON 81

little change in his pocket for cigars

Mr.. Frost does not demand all his

In this little calculation the lawyer
has overlooked the Wife'> need of
change for ice cream. matinee tickets
and the mysterious things for which
all husbands know wives need money.
But the main question j. this: Does
man really need change in his peck
ct for cigars and current expenses
when il i hi. wife'S money?
Would it not he better for Il man
who il too worthless To earn his own
living to cut out the cigars and contine

There may be some legal ground for
the claim that II hardworkin9 wife

either in law or common sense that
she owes him cigars and change to
