REPLIES TO WIFE'S SUIT
Benjamin P. Ducas Denies
Charges in Separation Action.

BENJAMIN L. Ducas. drug manufact-
urer, made answer yesterday in the STU
preme Court TO the complaint Of his wife,
Mrs. Rachel n Ducas, who is suing him
| for separation and also to set aside a
separation agreement under which she has
been receiving $4,000 a year, the ahega-
tion for the latter action being that IT was
obtained by unfair means.
Ducas denies the charges Of cruelty set
up by Mrs. Ducas and goes into some Of
the intimate affairs Of the home life OF
himself and wife In the first place he
denies that his income is s15O.oOO or that
he has 81, ,00O. COO worth of real estate. as
his wife said, and AYERS that his income
is only $4,000 a year. Ducas also calls
attention to the alleged statement of his
wife that he was good for business and
nothing else He takes exception also to
the statement that he was IAN excellent
father. but a bum husband" which the
defendant said his wife made to him.
Ducas acknowledges one thing that his
wife alleged, and that was that while they
were living at the Hotel Netherland he in
structed the cashier not to let his wife
draw any money. He did this, he said,
because of his wife's propensity for draw
ing money while they were living at the
Hotel Savoy. As a matter OF fact, said
Ducas. It was not long after their mar
rage that Mrs DucGs began 10 manifest
lack of affection or respect for him, and as
he declared she married him only because
she believed that he was able and willing
"to crafty her luxurious desires"
Ducas attacks even the contention OF
his wife that her father was wealthy
native of Alsace-LOrraine and that she
was brought up under most favorable
conditions. Said Ducas about this: "On
informa ton and belief the plaintiffs father
was dealer IN junk. and upon his death,
in 1899, left an estate Of s5O,0o0 and that
the living expenses OF himself and his
wife his father and three children did not
exceed 81 200 annually" The drug man
ufacturer further declared that his wife's
conduct toward him became unreasonable
and exasperating "and was deslgnedly so
10 impei him to some act which would en-
able her 10 obtain a divorce or bring about
a separation"

Many months had passed since first

the very next time the young man
called she pointed to the rose that

"I'll give you kiss for that rose"
she blurted out.
A crimson, guilty flush overspread
the young mans face, like the light of
the setting sun. There was, however,
no hesitation on his part, and he
clinched the bargain. Then he grab
bed his cap and proceeded to rush
from the room in double quick time.

asked in great surprise.

of blue.
To smooth an iron, plunge it while
hot into cold water with little soap
in it.

Never try to clean yokes, collars or

To remove the leather stains from

To clean ribbons sponge with alco-

the ribbon must be kept straight.
When clean rinse in alcohol and place
between two towels. Press out with

In the directions for washing white
silk sugar is recommended also. The
silk should be washed in warm, not
hot, water, with pure CASTLE soap, then
rinsed thoroughly in water to which
has been added teaspoonful Of granu'

be washed by itself.

rO TAKE OUT STAINS
NONE so STUBBORN THAT THEY
CAN'T BE REMOVED.
Grain Alcohol One Of the Best Rene
dIes to Employ, or In Some Cases
JaveIle Water VIII Do the
Work Better.

Alcohol will usually remove the
stains made by grass and fruit juice,
although it will not discourage in
the least the stains of some kinds OF
fruit. Only grain alcohol should be
used. 1t acts better if used warm, and
can be heated by holding the bottle
containing 1t in hot water. IL
patches Of the stain remain pour boil
ing water on them. If they still per
sist, dilute muriatic acid, in one
per cent. solution, can be applied. Care
should be taken to rinse the fabric
thoroughly afterward in several wa
ters, with very little ammonia In the
last one, to counteract the effect Of the
acid and prevent 1t from injuring the
cloth, Javelle water, which can be
made at home, is trustworthy means
for removing almost any fruit stain.
1t is especially good for peach and
pear stains, which are usually the
most obstinate of all spots. Soak the
spots in 1t for three or four minutes,
and then rinse in cold, clean water.
Afterward launder the article as usual.
Alcohol is usually perfect solvent
for the stain of green vegetable mat
ter, whether or not the material be
washable. Some housewives find or
dinary kitchen molasses sufficient
remedy for such stains upon any sort
Of fabric. 1t is rubbed thoroughly
into the stain, allowed to stand ten
minutes, and then washed out with
warm water and soap. If the article
cannot be washed, the molasses is left
on, with the stain thickly covered
for two or three days. Then 1t is wiped
and sponged off with clear water. II
traces remain they will probably yield
to sponging with alcohol, or mix
ture of equal parts of ether and alco-
hol\with dash of ammonia.
