dozen of reasons were given by Mrs.
May Silver in explaining why she
should be granted alimony and sepa-
ration decree from Lester Silver.
Through her attorney, Norman p. s.
Schloss. she applied TO Justice Hen
drick for an allowance.
She says she gave up career on
the stage for matrimony, but that Mr..
Silver has never appreciated her sacri-

the separation:
Her husband said he was an idiot
for marrying her.
He emptied box of oatmeal over
her head.
He delighted in jerking pillows from
under her head in bed.
He told her the meals were not
good
He laughed as he dumped her cocoa
in the sink.
He took her to only three places
during their three years of married
life, viz. Coney Island, a confirmation
party and to Pabst's.
He would not let her relatives visit
her.
He threatened to commit suicide if
she left him.
He showed her a large roll of mo-
ney, but gave her only SIS week.
He occasionally chastised her.
He didn't want her sisters in his
home.
He made such a row at home that
the neighbors were attracted.
He told her he didn't care for her.
Mrs. Silver says she was always Ia
dy-like." She also says her husband is
very wealthy" having an express bus
mess with offices at % Eldridge street
and Walker street.
Mr.. Silver denies he is wealthy. He
says he owns two horses worth about

THE KNOW HOW

There are more nervous persons

If food remains undigested in the
stomach, 1t begins to ferment, set up

verted into poison.
That's why imperfectly digested
food may, and often does, cause ir-
ritation Of the nerves and stupor of
the mind-brain and nerves are really
poisoned.

some time OF distressed feeling in
the stomach. after eating. which set
me thinking that her diet was not

"She had been fond of cereals, but
had never tried Grape-Nuts. From
.reading the account of this predigest-

Grape-Nuts for her case.
THE results were really wonderful

unable to do its work, took on new

TODD WAS RESCUED

INDIANAPOLIS. March 27.-Presi-
dent Robert l. Todd of the Indianapo-
lis Terminal and the Terre Haute, IN
dianapolis and Eastern Traction COM
panies had a hazardous boat voyage
yesterday afternoon from the West
Tenth street power plant, where he
had been a prisoner since Tuesday
noon.
Mr. Todd was taken aboard a frail
craft by rescue party maneuvering in
the vicinity of the power plant. By
means of circuitous route he was ia
ken to the Big Four railroad tracks
on West Washington street and here
he finally gained entrance to the down
town district.
Seeks Shelter in Plant.
President Todd drove to the power
station in his automobile just before
the city street car service was shut
off. The water rose so rapidly that he
was compelled to drive his machine
to place of safety and himself seek
the shelter under the power station
roof. By means of a single telephone
line connecting with a grocery in the
flooded district he got into communi-
cation with his offices in the city.
The trap was a dangerous one and
the boat was roughly handled by the
strong currents. President Todd was
astonished at conditions which he
viewed in the flood district. and felt
much distressed that it was not pos
sible to offer more relief to the suffer-
ers.
