Philip Excused From AGn1ony
Onhe Testimony of Wife No.

she said she'd have that money or
have my hearts blood" said Philip, but
he did not look at all as though ne
feared the operation would be per-
formed.
Wife No. Takes Stand.
Then wife No. Stook the stand. Fan
ME is her name, and she made up in
weight what No. 1 lacked; in fact, she
was buxOm.
Fannie also had tale of woe. But,
for all she had 10 say, Philip is jewel
of a husband. Hard times might. come
to any one. and Fannie had experienced
hers. She told the justice that she had
parted with. her jewelry 10 gamer IN

Her face. too. was wreathed in smiles
as Justice Wright laid down that GOOD
old legal principle, probably known 10
the laity better than any other, that
man can't pay money when he mas
none.
No Signs of Money.
For. although the lawyer of wife No
l had questioned, and re-questioned,
and oss-questioned Philip, he could
discover no wealth about him, and when
his present spouse testified about the
tickets there was moisture IN the SYM
pathetic eyes of Jim S7ringman. Times
are hard, indeed" thought Jim, and he
brushed away a fat tear-drop.
Corby's first wife, Mary F., got a dt-
vorce from him in March, 1917, when
she said ne was wont 70 wander from
the domestic fireside, and Philip, un-
danted and undampened by one matri-
nnonia- experience, plunged into the
sea n few months afterward.
The question Of alimony had been LETT

Philip Corby walked out Of Justice
Wright's court a free man. His former
wife had failed in her attempt 10 keep
him in Jail until he paid her back all
mony. Philips step was jaunty, and
he set a battered brown derby hat with
p. P. COrby" conspicuously penciled
upon Il on the side Of his head, a
broad smile OversPreading his counte-
nance
That's real justice for you" said he,
as ,he gave his trousers a hitch. THAT
judge knows his job. all right. How

wives on one salary, eh-especially
when he's dead broker
He looked at Jim SQringman keeper
Of the City Hall branch of the District
jail for an answer. Jim shook his head.
well, ne can't do it-thats all" I'm
ished Philip.
Philip Is a Good Carpenter.
Philip has been in what the poets call
"durance vile" for a week. Philip has
another name for it. 1t seems that his
first wife put him there because he
wouldn't or couldn't. anyway didn't,
pay her regularly the fOur-and-a-half a
week the court ordered n %ear ago.
Philip IS a carpenter and his boss
said he was a good one. and he has
nailed down many a flooring In the new
Municipal building. The confinement OF
the jail did not appeal TO him, even
though he was cOnsOled by the com
pany of jim Springman, and so he got
him a lawyer and proceeded 10 get out
without assauIting IRE iron bars.
He said he'd throw the money out
into the street l,efOre he'd pay me

stand She is a slender woman. with
