When Buttons Were Bio,

Dachaumont writes in his Secret
Memoirs" Nov. IS, 1856: The mania
Cor buttons is today extremely ridicu-
lous. They are not only OF enormous
size, some of them as big as six pound
crowns. but miniatures and pictures
are made upon them, aud this orna-
mentation is extremely costly. Some Of
them represent. the medals of TIE
twelve Caesars, others antique statues
and still others the Metamorphoses Of
Ovid"
Isabey. in his biographical notes,
says that when he came TO Paris he
worked for living by making copies
of Vanlocs and Bouchers on the lids Of
snuffboxes and that for these medal
lions he was paid from to s francs
each. LAS it was still the fashion, he
said, ''to wear buttons as big as a FIVE
franc piece, upon which Cupids, flow
ers and landscapes were cut in cameo.
I went into that business. I got II

Geneva, Ill, May 27.-Although but
Is years old now, Della Husk, form
erly of Davenport, Ia, has been mar
ried for four years. Yesterday she
was granted a divorce in the circuit
court in this city.
Her eX-husband, Frank Husk, is a
telegraph operator for the Burlington
railroad and is located at present at
Berwyn, III. Desertion was named as
the cause for action in the proceed
ings and the testimony produced the
fact that the couple had never lived
together.
The child was married in Daven-
port in 1909 to Husk and was at the
time CT the marriage bu. II years Of
age. The wedding was the result of a
hasty courtship extending over but a
few days and grew out Of an &C.
quaintance made during a street fair.
Strong parental objection was en-
tered "a the time of the wedding and
the child-bride never lived with Ter
older husband. Her parents are now
residing in Geneva and she has lived
with them since the wedding.

noted from western Canada south

BARES Her LIFE
To WARN OTHERS
Widow Pens Pathetic Story of
Domestic Tragedy to Chi
cago Judge.

Chicago, Ill, May 27-In the hope
that it may aid in effecting reconcilia-
tons between warning couples, wheth-
eT or not they get as far as the di-
vorce court, Judge Adelor ]. Petit yes
terday gave out a letter sent him by a
woman. The name Is withheld. 1t is
dated May 90. In part it reads.
My Dear Judge Petit:
IF my divorce and regret can be of
any help to you in your talks to war;
ing couples please use it as you see
fit
In 1907 1 separated from my hus-
band, a young physician, and two
years later secured a divorce.
He was continually asking me to
reconsider and come back, but
would not listen and sent him away
again and again. He was heartbroken
ana worked himself into i'll health.
Finally in September, 1910, We
were remarked and he was to return
to me the next summer, as even then
l would not go back to him at once.
I'm the summer of 1911 he came
back and We and our two children
spent a most delightful summer, but
at the end of the summer he decided
he must return to Mexico and that
should follow in January of 1912.
But when l arrived at my destina-
tio2 l found the poor boy i'll and worn
to shadow.
II gave him every care and tried
often to picture his loneliness when
was not there, and had many a mo-
ment of the deepest remorse for the
years we spent apart.
"One can easily picture my feelings
when in his illness the only thought he
had was for me; how fought day and
night, side by side with doctors and
nurses, for the life that was now the
most precious on earth to me and how
l felt the world would be well nigh
lost unless he could be saved.
81 gave as much of my own blood
to try to save him, as the doctors
would take for him. 1t almost killed
me when he finally had to give up his
! brave fight and go and l would have
| given one-half of the remnant of lie
that is left me if l could have saved
! him alive for only one hour longer OF
to erase that separation of years.
But regret! That is a vain thing
when one could have spared ones sell
such regret.
/ Il do hope the couples coming be
| fore you can think of these things anG
/ try to be tolerant of one another's
/ faults. ! am sure if people intending
to separate could only for one single
moment feel the pangs of remorse thai
l have felt they would die rather thar
separate from the one they have prom
( ised to love, honor and cherish unit
death do us part
Just two months from the time
returned to my husband he passed
