Germ Diseases.

Shortly after this trip they returned

the first rift in the lutte of their matri-

the speech was delivered, says Mrs.
Stack, her husband helped himself TO

saloons, got gloriously drunk and then,
with beer bottle in each pocket, re-
turned TO the hotel. She says he awak-
ened her by banging on the door with
one of the bottles. He then frightened
her almost to death by shouting at the
top of his voice that the world was On
fire. that Moscow was also ablaze and
by directing one Romeo to hasten to
the bathtub and rescue Juliet. She
has nothing to say about the days that
followed UP to November 80. when she
says she and her husband came to this
