Midway, Pa, Jan. because his
wife sent him as a Christmas present
a comb and brush, jeremiah Schlesten-
berg, a merchant of Midway, sued fol
a divorce on the grounds of cruel ami
barbarous treatment
Schlestenberg's head is as bald as \
hairless Mexican dog, yet his wife,
with an odd sort of humor, according
to the aggrieved mans way of thin
ing, sent him a comb and stiff hair
brush by parcel potts., and at the same
time failing to insert the name of the
donor.
Schlestenberg learned yesterday who
had sent the comb and brush. De-
manding from his wife an explanation
and receiving little satisfaction, he
filed the suit.
