When Men pesert wives.

CHICAGO. H., April 5--~rhere are
10000 deserted wives in Chicago and
the increased cost OF living is the main
reason that their husbands have left
them in the lurch." is the surprising
statement that Ernest p. Bickneii, head
Of the Chicago Bureau Of Charities
has just given out IN his annual state
ment.
Chief Bicknel states that the in
creased cost Of living has made many
men feel that they could 10 longer
provide their wives with even the nee
essary comforts.
Salaries have decreased while OK
penses are constantly going up and
the struggle has become so hand for
men earning a weekly stipend that the
number Of desertions is growing alarm
ingly more frequent.

was supposed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pronounced it
local disease and prescribed local rem
edies, and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment, pronounced it in
durable. Science has proven catarrh to
be constitutional disease and therefore
requires constitutional treatment. Halls
