RULING ON WIFE'S VALUE
Deserter Worth More if She
Stays Away, Says Judge.

"A wife who leaves her husband and
then returns to him gets the habit. and
is not OF as great value as a wife who
leaves her husband and does not return
to him"
Justice Blanchard is responsible for
the foregoing bit Of philosophy. He de-
livered IL from the bench in the Supreme
Court in the case Of Harry f. Boden-
stein. who is suing William Isaacs, q
rich silk importer, an uncle Of the plain
tiff, for S2J, 700 for the alleged alienation
Of Mrs. Bodensteins affections.
Bodenstein says that Isaacs mali
ciously enticed" Mrs Bodenstein to
leave him and TO take their two-year-old
daughter Miriam with her. Gifts Of
money, jewelry and clothing, the plain
tiff alleges, were the inducements that
caused the wife to leave. Isaacs says in
his defence that the reason Mrs. Boden-
stein left her husband was because he
was unable TO support her and her child
in the manner the wife was accustomed
TO before her marriage. The couple
ran away and were married, says
Isaacs, when Mrs. Bodenstein was only
SlAltGb Stdl Oihs ANtl llNlIB a "Hllb
with Bodenstein Mrs Bodenstein went
TO live at the home Of Isaacs, at No. 1870
West ll7th street Several letters writ
ten by the husband TO his wife were put
in evidence. One Of these read, in part:
Dear Jessie-I wrote to you three times
last week, asking you TO let me know
when / can come and see Miriam, but you
did not answer any one Of my letters.
Now IL seems very cruel for you 10 keep
me from seeing my own child. / assure
you / love her just as much as you do.
Furthermore, you are acting very foolish
In trying TO keep her away from me.
Maybe you don't know IL, but the child
belongs to me- and not to you. and II you
doubt IL, ask some OF your lawyer friends.
j am going to get the baby, and don't you
forget II. My lawyer is going to get me
a court order, and then what Will you do ?
l don't know what you will do. under
stand, but / won't have you neglecting
my child, and In the future when you put
Miriam TO sleep stay up in the house. be-
cause II ever see you on the stoOp when
/ pass at night, look out, for there will
be something doing Hey, how about Il?
/ tell you IL feels nice TO be single again.
j am having a - OF a time trying TO
keep the females away. / didn't know 1
was 80 popular until now. Well at any
rate, hope you will come to your senses
and let me know by return OF mail what
you are going 10 do regarding my seeing
Miriam. So will close. i am yours as

HOUSEHOLD PLUMBING
NO. S.
More About the Requisite Fixtures for Modern
Sanitary and Attractive Bathroom.

no more frequent than with a first class
gas stove.
The Bathroom Lavstory.
The oval basin OF the modern lavatory
is placed In a pedestal fixture. with Sc
cret flow directed by hot and cold water
cocks, and standpipe waste pipe. The
sanitary aspect OF this fixture is almost
faultless; the plumbing is exposed; the
waste water trap water seal and clean
out cap are not only handsomely finished,
but in plain view; the standpipe waste
pipe can be removed and cleaned daily, II
needed. TO the ever increasing number Of
the discerning this fixture has one re-
mediable fault. The surgeon or graduate
nurse does not consider a hand clean
which has been washed in standing water
They are accustomed 10 washing hands
under a steady, light stream of flowing
water. The hospital lavatory basin, which
is entirely practical for domestic use, is
supplied by a double mixing tap, and the
water is released by foot lever, and
continues flowing only so long as the foot
remains on the lever.
The Foot Tub and Shower Bath.
The foot bath is an especially desirable
addition to the city bathroom, where It
may minister TO the comfort OF the feet,
tired and broken from treading the I'M
yielding city pavements. The foot bath.
shower. old-fas hioned lavatory basin and
bathtub are subject to the same waste
pipe deposits OF soap and grease and
debris: a weekly treatment with boil
ing solution OF caustic potash, the occa-
sional use Of the plumbers force cup and
the semi-yearly cleaning out OF the waste
pipe trap should be attended to by the
household plumber.
Crepe Paper Absorbent Roller Towel.
OF all the recent sccessions tending TO
the maintenance Of domestic health and
efficiency perhaps none ranks higher than
the modern manufacture OF absorbent
paper towels. The universal use OF alb
sorbent paper towels would go far toward
disposing OF what Bernard Shaw terms
"the laundry menace" meaning the trans
mission OF infectious germs 20 the wash
erwoman. or the laundress, and her circle
of connections In an endless chain. The
Iavatory paper towel, inexpensive and
serviceable, is used once and burned. The
family towel may be the means OF trans
mission OF any skin disorder, throat In
lection or pulmonary trouble to all other
members OF the family, or to the servants
who handle It.
