a Four Months Record.

That the divorce mills are working
full time is evidenced by the following
figures. covering the past few months. In
the last two weeks in October there were
81 cases heard and 63 new suits filed. In
November the cases heard numbered 1874,
with 40 new suits. In December 135
cases were heard and % applications for
separation were recorded. January's
record is 100 cases heard and GS suits
filed; and during the first three weeks
of February there were 66 cases heard
and % new applications-in all $50
cases heard and .,54 new suits filed. And
the eases heard" might virtually be
written DEGREES granted" for a divorce
decree is not refused in more than one
out Of so cases brought to trial.
1t is women who keep the Chicago
divorce mills grinding, four out of five
suits being brought by the wife. De
spite this fact, one of the most notice
able things about the Chicago divorce
courts is the lack Of the sentimental,
the lack of feeling. Sorrow, regret.
shame, disappointment are not displayed
by the average woman complainant. As
q rule the woman seeking divorce in
Chicago gives as practical and business
like an exhibition as can be seen in q
court room. She retails the story Of her
married life with almost as much uncon.
Germ as though she were suing a laundry
company and were describing the running
Of a shirt waist. 1t is 4 business propo-
sition. The law gives her eight chances
for divorce, and she's going to land
decree through one of them. AS rule
both husband and wife punctuate their
evidences with smiles and laughter as
they recount the faults or offenses Of the
one from whom release is sought.
But while many Of the applicants
seem to treat the matter as a joke, or
agreeable diversion, there are, too, tears
and pathos and tragedy. Sobbing and
heartbrOken women take the stand to
tell Of lives of abuse and degradation
caused by brutes TO whom it would seem
that no law should require them to con-
tinue united.
They tell of years of wifehood and
motherhood during which they have sew
ed or scrubbed or washed to keep bread
in the mouths of little ones and whisky
in the mouth of the father. They tell of
struggles and self-sacrifice on their part,
year after year, met by kicks. blows,
curses, attempts to kill or MAIN.
Husbands, too, tell of sad years-of
devotion, generosity. kindness, patience,
love, ending in the divorce court because
Of woman's viciOusness. drunkenness, or
depravity. Pathetic cases, however, are
in 4 minority so great that the general
impression left after hearing hundreds of
trials is a memory compounded of bust
ness and joking.
All classes of the community seek the
