it, we get married; IL he refuses to

she wanted in the agreement. Among
them were the following stipulations:

balls or parties unless she accom-
panies him, and not to dance with
any other girl, when she is present,

may attend the meetings; three ci-
gars day to be his limit, except on
Sundays, when he may smoke five;

the baby should be cross at night, he
is to take turns with her in quieting
it; he is not to keep dogs, smoke cl-
garettes or swear.
When asked is there was anything
else, she replied: 81 think the mar
