Mrs. Claudia Carlstedt Wheeler in the
Supreme Court Of New York. Mrs.

on the stage, obtained separation in
1910, with alimony of $4,000 a year.
When questioned Mrs. Wheeler said
she was as yet unaware of the action.
i have had great deal of trouble in
the last few years." she said. "and II
would not surprise me If such a move
were made by my husband"
The complaint is se,.Ad.
Mrs. Wheeler attributed all of her
marital difficulties to having loved her
husband too well, when in 1912 he con-
tested her right to receive $4,000 IN
alimony and succeeded In reducing n
10 haif that sum. Within the present
year she said she intended to bring ac.
lon against the elder Mr.. Wheeler for
Sl,UOoO0 on the ground that be bs,,
alienated her husbands affections Mr.

Glazed Earthenware

Glazed earthenware was long sup
posed to be of no more ancient date
than the ninth century, but the discov-
cry of glazed ware in Egypt, of glazed
bricks in the ruins of Babylon, of
glazed coffins and enameled tiles in
other ancient cities proves that this is
not the case. The Arabs seem to be en-
titled to the credit of having intro
duced glazed ware into modern Eu-
rope. The Italians are said to have
become acquainted with this kind of
ware as it was manufactured in the
island of Majorca and gave it the
name of majolica. The French de-
rived their first knowledge from the
Italian mandatory at Faenza and
christened it faience.-London Satur-
day Review.
