 -Juozas Sabas of IS Summit street on his return from work Mon- day evening found note on the ta- ble' which made him think of the song Goodbye, I'm Going Away" His wife was not there to greet him, but he found note which explained all. The epistle stated that Juozas need not look for his better half as she had decided to leave his home. Sabas was dumbfounded at first. He went into the room, found his child sleeping and then 1t began to dawn on him what had happened. Upon investigation he found that the $100 which he had saved had been nabbed and $90 that his brother Francis had scraped together had been hook ed also. This was bad enough, but worse was to follow. Later in the evening it was learned that John Kravinas, cousin of Sabas's wife, was missing and the husband natur- ally came to the conclusion that he had skipped with his wife. Sabas and his wife had no trouble which would cause the latter to leave and the former is at loss to know why she has gone. They have been mar ried five years.
 There have not been very many cases of scarlet fever in Brooklyn the past month although measles have been prevalent. At the last meeting of the board of health it was stated that on account of some cases being mild strict quarantine was not kept at some of the houses. It would appear because of the number of cases in the city that extra precau- lions should be taken in order to prevent the inmates of house where there is scarlet fever from with others. There is a case on North Riverside street where there are children who have been running round daily with the of the neighborhood. AL though there may be no danger in t. still it is certainly not the best measure to adopt when there are So many children in the vicinity, and caves the other youngsters liable to he contagious disease.
