UNUSUAL GROUNDS FOR DIVORCE

A Kansas City woman has sued her
husband for divorce on the grounds
that he is too good a cook. She al
leges that he insists upon cooking the
meals when they have company and
that he then declares that he has to
attend to the homework while she en-
tertains her friends. She further al
leges that he declares he cooks not be-
cause he is a good cook, but that the
real reason is that he wishes to throw
discredit upon herself.
With divorce as common as it is,
this is probably as good a reason as
most others, but it really is not a good
and sufficient reason.
A man who potters around a kitch.
en- is always more or less of an Of
Tense to most women, but the Kansas
City woman has the remedy in her
own hands. Her husband is a travel
ing salesman. While he is busy with
homework let her get busy with his
employers and state her case. When
they have ono let her go over his
route and she has demonstrated that
she can sell goods even better than
her hubby, she may notify him tina,
he may remain at home and do the
Homework he loves and she'll go GU,
and provide the wherewithal. And
whether or not she prove successful,
as a saleswoman, the mere fact tina
she essayed the role might be sufi,
Gent to show her husband the errol
of his ways.
