KISSES AND

Mrs. Agnes Stoemer of Stockton,
Calf, is proper sore at her husband
William L. Stoemer. and has institut-
ed divorce proceedings. The COM
plant was filed at Stockton, Wednes-
day. and all because her spouse was
inspired to burst forth into poetry,
with his wife as she alleges, the in
spiration of the NUS After hubby
had composed the lines, he sem them
to his wife, and then the trouble
commenced. The verse that figures
in the divorce complaint follows:
Here's to the girl who dresses In
blue,
To the man she loves she intends to
be true,
But give her a kiss. a cocktail or two,
And God only knows what she won't
do"
Mrs. Stoemer says the lines are
insinuating and have caused her
mental anguish. The sentiment en-
DOulcQ III the three liute optuo up
a wide field of conjecture. Perhaps
the defendant has seen his wife un-
der the influence of a kiss and a
cocktail and wrote with a full knowl-
edge of what she might do under
the circumstances. On the other
hand he may have been treating
the subject in a general way and
made the unhappy comparison out
of his own imagination, in which in
stance the lines most certainly con-
stitute a libel in lack of proof that
his consort was not given to kisses
and cocktails.
Perhaps Mr.. Stoemer at the time
of writing was actuated by mental
stress induced by such a combina-
ton as he describes, and inadvertent-
ly mixed his wife up with the color
scheme of some other who
dressed in blue.
