FIRST SAYS HANDS OFF,
Mrs. Chanler No. 4 Wants Her Share
of Sheriff Bob's Cash.

New York, Sept 22.-The validity of
the famous pre-nuptial agreement be-
tween Robert Winthrop Chanler and
Lima Cavaleri, his bride, is now certain
to be tested in the courts. CHAMBERS
first wife, Julia Chamberlain Chanle-
who obtained a divorce from him ia
the French courts in 1907, has filed suit
here, in behalf of herself and her chit
dren, in an endeavor to set aside the
agreement on the ground that it was
obtained by fraud and undue influence
and that it was not the free act of
Robert Winthrop Chanler. Mrs Chan
Ter the first has an agreement of her
own with her former husband provid-
ing for the payment of $4,000 yearly
for her support, and 5000 yearly for
support of each of her daughters.
1.-THE plaintiff is not aware she says
in her papers, ''of the yearly income of
the said Robert Chanler, but the
plaintiff believes that by the aforesaid
agreement the defendant has put it out
of his power to carry out the terms Of
his said agreement with the plaintiff
and that by reason thereof the plaintiff
and her children may be deprived of
the means of livelihood
She continues that she sis further
informed and believes that the defend
ant at the time of the execution of the
said indenture, was in a suggeStible
mental state; that he was susceptible
or liable to be easily influenced and de-
ceiVed, and that the DEFENDANT, Nata-
lima Cavalieri Chanler, knowing of his
condition, and taking advantage there
of, contrived by Misrepresentation, ir,-
ducements, suspicious and undue in
fluence, to persuade him to execute the
said indenture.
Wherefore, the plaintiff demands
that the agreement be adjudged in
fraud of the rights of the plaintiff and
the children of the defendant, and
therefore, void, and that it be brought
into court to be cancelled and that the
record thereof in the office of the reg
lister of the county of New York be
cancelled
The complaint also states that Chan
Ter is in receipt of the income from
these separate trust funds and con-
tinues its demand that 'Natalina Cav
alieri be enjoined, pending this action,
from disposing of said property AMI
that a receiver be appointed to hold and
preserve said property and to receive
the income to which the defendant,
Robert Chanler, may be entitled dur
i'm the tendency of this action, and to
pay thereout to this plaintiff the sums
to which she is entitled as aforesaid"
The defendants named are Chanler.
Cavalier and the trustees of the Chan
Ter trust funds. Ne reply to the
complaint has yet been made.

| Wouldn't Look Like That Again for a Farm.

by George: / never saw anything like
the effects of that new treatment, Pro-
tone, for the building up of weight and
lost nerve force. 1t acted more like
miracle than a medicine said a we'll
known gentleman yesterday in speaking
of the revolution that had taken place in
his condition. II began to think that
there was nothing on earth that could
make me fat. tried tonics, digestives,
heavy eating, diets, milk, beer and almost
everything else you could think of, but
without result. 1 had been thin for years,
and began to think it was natural for me
to be that way, Finally read about the
remarkable processes brought about by
the use of Protone, so I decided to try it
myself. Well. when look at myself in
the mirror now, think it is somebody
else. 1 have put on just 80 pounds dur
ing the last month and never felt stronger
or more 'nervy' in my life
Protone is a powerful inducer of nutri-
ton, increases cell growth. makes perfect
assimilation of food. increases the num-
Der of blood corpuscles, and a necessary
result builds up muscles and solid,
healthy flesh and rounds out the figure.
For woman who can never appear
stylish in anything they wear because of
their thinness, this remarkable treatment
may prove revelation. 1t is a beauty
maker as well as a form builder and
nerve strengthened.

PRESSED HARD
Coffee's Weight on Old Age.

When prominent men realize the in
furious effects of coffee and the change
in health that Postum can bring, they
are glad to lend their testimony for
the benefit of others.
A superintendent of public schools
in a southern state says: MY mother,
since her early childhood, was an in
veterate coffee drinker. had been trou-
bled with her heart for number of
years and complained of that weak
all over feeling and sick stomach.
Some time ago, was making an Off
cial visit to a distant part of the coun-
try and took dinner with one of the
merchants of the place. I noticed a
somewhat peculiar favour of the cof-
fee, and asked him concerning it. He
replied that it was Postum. was so
pleased with it that, after the meal
was over, I bought a package to carry
home with me, and had wife prepare
family liked it SO well that we discon-
tinued coffee and used Postum en-
tirely.
ct had really been at times very
anxious concerning my mothers con-
dition, but we noticed that after using
Postum for a short time. she felt so
much better than she did prior to its
use, and had little trouble with her
heart and no sick stomach; that the
headaches were not so frequent, and
her general condition much improved.
This continued until she was as well
and hearty as the rest of us.
81 know Postum has benefited my
self and the other members of the
family, but in more marked degree
in the case of my mother, as she was
victim of long standing"
