Just as the leper," said Father
Howard, covers up the first evidence
of his dreadful disease, so does the
sinner try to hide his guilt from his
fellow men until the insidious work
ings of sin SO pervert and weaken and
destroy our moral and spiritual natures
that we are no longer able to fight
the leprosy of sin. and nothing but the
grace of God can cleanse us from our
unrighteousness."
The missionary replied to the fol-
lowing questions which had been sub
mitted
why do you keep Lent, Easter,
etc.?'' I'VE keep Washington's birth

and other anniversaries of our nation
in grateful remembrance of the events

therefore, keep sacred the blessed days
in memory Of the leading events of our
Lords life?"
What is fasting and when and why
do you practice it?"
Fasting is abstinence and Is a disci-
pine of the will and body; our Lord

mated ranks of unmarried young folks
Since Hammond ceased to be a Gretna

local lads and lasses to elbow their

their marriage licenses. For a time
marriage license scalping was quite
an industry In Hammond and the diff
ficulty and embarrassment of securing
the little document was so great that
a large number of local SWANS were
frightened out of the notion of getting
married.

The Rounder Saws

Ben will be wearing a tin star as big
as a platter and will be allowed to
carry a cap pistol.
During the recent political unpleas-
antness, in which the democrats were
put to rout in Lake county. Mr.. Bell
was of great service to the party. AS
the republican victory is alleged to be
due to the voting of foreigners, Ben
Bell must have rounded up a large
number of first voters At least he
is recognized as a potent factor in the
campaign.
To carry out the democratic idea of
the recent victory. Ben Bell went into
the foreign settleemnts and kissed ev-
cry boyski and girlovich that he could
| find. He secured naturalization papers
for all who were old enough to pay
street car fare, and what is more. he
voted them.
He was a whale in the Standard dis
trict, and is said to have learned to
speak six languages during the cam
paign. At least he could say Taft
in six of them. All of which goes to
show that Ben should be the successor
of Jimmy frost.

SINGULAR DIVORCE
COMPLAINTS FILED
CONTINUED from page one.)

states that she was married on March,
1907, and that she separated from her
husband in November, 1908. That is
one year and seven months of con-
nubiaI bliss brought to an end by the
postal card craze.
She complains further that her hus-
band would curse and swear at her,
would say words not fit for the ear of
the court and finally would strike and
beat her. And this was done on divers
and sundry occasions, too.
The second case is that of a man
eating wife. That is, if woman who
would bite her husband when she was
angry could be considered a man
eating wife. Levi Eaton is the com
plainant in this case. He is suing for
| a legal separation from his wife, Su-
san Eaton.
In the complaint he says they were
married in Hobart on the 21st day
of January, 1890. They managed to
stick together until March, 1905, and
then they separated He says that she
was guilty of cruel and inhuman treat
ment and on divers and sundry occa-
sions" would fly into an uncomfortable
rage at the most trivial provocation.
Actually Bit Him.
He says that she would strike and
beat him and would actually bite him.
The inference from this was that these
domestic riots were pulled off at rath-
er close quarters. Again Mr.. Sick
man says that the defendant used
language which is not At for the ears
of the court.
But one of the most startling per-
formances of this wife was stunt she
pulled off few years ago. She is al
legged to have packed UP the furniture
in the absence of her husband and
moved it to South Chicago before he
knew what was going on and there
on Ninety-first street lived with anoth-
| er man as husband wife.
Never in the annals of the local di-
vorce court has a complaint recorded
the allegation that a woman not only
ran away with another man, but took
4 her furniture to her affinity.
The Eatons have one little girl, Haz-
eli. whom Mr.. Eaton wants to keep
from the influences of the mother.
