TIRED OF MATRlM0NY
AFTER SIX TRIALS A CHICAGO
WOMAN IS READY TO QUIT.

A dispatch from Chicago. H., last night
says: Mrs Laura w. Hodges of 1918 18th
avenue. principal in six marriages. the
last of which was only one day pas; when
her husband fed from her. has come to
rather bitter conclusions about men and
matrimony.
Mrs. Hodges has had a wealth of expert
ence from which to deduce her beliefs hav-
ing killed one husband in self-defense. d.
Vorced three, seen one fee arrest a
forgery charge and survived the cruelty of
another. Her latest experience came last
Monday. when she told Justice Wolff that
w. c. Hodges. to whom the justice had
married her Saturday. had fed from
her. leaving heritage OF unpaid bills and
protested checks.
Out of her experience Mrs. Hodges has
deduced the following matrimonial axioms:
"All men are deceitful Marriage for love
Is failure. Women should marry for
money, not love. After being married for
a few months most men, when pretty girls
cross their paths. only pretend to love their
wives. Whisky is mans worst enemy.

be better off today.

lived happily together for a year, when a
pretty girl met him. He became neglect
frequently. Then he began to drink and
wasted his savings. He became cruel

Iron Company, in Mastodon, Mich. We
had two children. After twelve years OF
happiness he met seventeen year-od
cousin of NINE with whom he eloped to the
west. l could not care for him after such
faithlessness. and / took enough money
from him to pay the expense of securing
a divorce for desertion. Then he married
my cousin.
My next husband. N c.. Bisbee made
life miserable for me. He became insane
and threatened to kill ME one week after
our marriage. Then he chased me all
around our farm and shot at me six times
1 secured another revolver and when he
attempted to beat me to death / shot him
six times and killed him.
a. I was destitute after his death and /
accepted Charles Williams offer of mar
ried life sufficed for him, and he deserted
me- All these years of misery led me to
believe marriage for love failure"
