OLD QUESTION TO THE FRONT
Just How Much Woman Should Spend
on Dress Seems as Much ct
a Puzzle as Ever.

a Partisan woman ran up bill IN
one year amounting to $2,750 for
dresses and furs. Her husband was
sued. He stated that his fat cost him
$500 a year, therefore credit to his
wife for over $4,000 was unreason-
able. The court decided that mar
ried woman cannot spend in dress
more than the amount Of the rent
paid for The joint home of husband
and wife without laying herself open
to charge of extravaganza, and the
court reduced the bid to $780, There
is a saying that the rent should not
exceed one-fourth of the mooney
The scene now opens in the court
Of chancery, Jersey City. Vice Chan
cellor Garrison stated there that the
utmost extent to which man could
be asked to go in supplying his wife
with 'outer clothing" was as follows:
Suits, $40; coat, SIS; pair of shoes,
Sd; one pair of corsets, ST." ct is
common, the court knows, for women
to spend SIS or 500 for suit with
which to go to bridge parties and
cause their sisters to turn green with
envy. But it Is no part of a husbands
duty to provide means Of causing 9TH
er women unhappiness.
81 have seen women in $18 coats
which looked fine on them. There
isn't married man in the world who
doesn't know that for 81 corsets can
be bought which will set off a wom-
ans figure most engagingly." The
report Of that case includes the state
ment that Vice Chancellor Garrison,s
wife is zone Of the handsemest and
best dressed women of all Hudson
country"

Lime Salts and Health.

The Berliner Klinische Wochen
schrift, in an article on the influence
Of lime salts on the constitution and

who are coming more and more to

individual hygiene. Reinhardt, a
German physician, quoted, says:

Doctor Brown-Sequard and the won
derful things that were to be done
by his discovery in making old fell

WELCOME COMING or LOCUST
Sudanese Consider Insects, Elsewhere
Regarded as Pests, as Most
Palatable Food.

The latest advices from Khartum,
in the Sudan, state that the usual
bitches have been dug in all direc-
tons in anticipation Of the summer
rains, which, however, have as yet
not put in an appearance. In the
meantime these bitches are having
their uses, for plague of locusts
has set in. Immense swarms have
for days been passing over the city.
Locusts of course do a vast amount
of damage to the fields. They null
tiply most rapidly and wherever they
settle they devour every vestige Of
green and leave the land bare The
Sudanese are waging vigorous cam
paign against them and their zeal is
whetted by the fact that locusts con-
stitute for them very palatable dish.
These insects are usually caught by
the Cyprus system which consists
in digging trenches and erecting on
their farther side tin screens against
which they dash and kill themselves,
eventually falling into the trenches.
1t is not thought that this invasion
will reach Egypt. The last time that
country was visited by locusts was
in 1904, when no fewer than 1,OO0,-
100000 egg masses were destroyed.
The work was carried out by over
100000 men and cost the government
close on $4,000, which was in all
conscience a cheap radiance of the
plague seeing that it might quite cas-
lily have ruined the entire cotton crop,
not to mention crops of other sum-
mer products.

many OTHER SUITS TO COME
Association to Seek, Judgments Against
All Signers of Contracts Who Failed
to Pay for Lots in the Ropeville
Subdivision.

In the circuit court today the Ke-
nosha Industrial Association began it's
fight to collect payments on lots sold
at the time Of the location of the wire
rope factory on the tract Of land north
Of the CITY, The first judgment to be
docketed was that of the association
against w. J. Threinen and the amount
of the Judgment was $256.94. The de-
PENDANT in the case failed to put in
an answer and a default Judgment was
docketed The original claim of the
association In the case was 5000, but in
the Judgment $26.70 was allowed as in
terest on the amount from July l,
1911 and an added $3024 was assessed
as the costs of the action.
The Judgment docketed today is the
first of long series to be secured by
the industrial association In the list
of purchasers of lots there are thirty
four men, most Of them well known in
the business life of 5he city who fail
ed to make good the contracts. The
summons and complaint in the action
to collect for the lots sets up all the
facts connected with the purchase and
sale of the land and the further fact
that the money to pay for the land and
to pay the rope company was secured
by loans made on the strength of CON
tracts written. Attorney Henry Hast
ings appeared for the association in
this first action and he has been in
structed to proceed in a similar man
ner against every one Of the signers
Of the contracts for lots who have not
shown a willingness to pay. The
Threinen case was to have been a test
case, but as no answer was filed in the
case the attorneys for the association
are planning to try some of the other
cases. Judgments will be docketed
against the men who signed the con-
tracts just as rapidly as they can be
drawn. The full list of defendants has
not been given out, but they will be
made public as the suits are filed in
the circuit court.
Several of the men against whom
suits have been ordered have instruct
ed the attorneys that payments will
be made and few have settled in
full for the obligations. The associa-
ton has instructed the attorney that
every cent of this indebtedness must
be collected.
It is possible that there will be an
appeal from the judgment taken in the
circuit court, but no notice Of appeal
has been filed at this time
There is still outstanding more than
twenty thousand dollars on the prop

figures and those not much beyond

The straight back is a godsend to
one who is a little round shouldered.

But the straight-back is not for
everyone and there are plenty of 9TH
er models to choose from. All the
new designs may be said to hang on
the figure rather than to fit 1t. Among
them the Russian blouse is sure to

discussed little later.
