ure in Retaining
Her Husband 5
Love

Nat Goodwin, who has written a
book on Wives / Have Married."
has an adventurous time finding,
living with and in some cases dis
carding wives. and his fifth ven
ture will turn out disastrously I'M
less he changes his tactics or his
wife uses different tactics from his
previous mates.
There is no getting around the
fact that Goodwin was head and
heels in love with all his wives and
that they were in love with him,
too, at the start.
Perhaps they loved him too much.
We would think so from the words
of Mrs. Claudia Carlstedt Wheeler,
who has been sued by her husband,
Albert Gallatin Wheeler. Jr., BANK
er and broker, for divorce.
Mrs. Wheeler says you can't love
too much and be successful in mat
rimony. Therefore, Mrs. Goodwin
No. 5, beware. 1t took six wives to
outlive King Henry VIII. Accord
ing to Mrs. Wheeler's recipe. Mrs.
Goodwin No. should not love too
much II she would be with Nat at
the finish.
Here is what Mrs. Wheeler says
about love:
"A woman may love man as
deeply as she pleases, provided she
does not set him on n pedestal and
fall down on her knees and worship
him.
Let her tell him of her love, but
she must not let him. in receiving
that love-, get her soul at the same
time.
DO for him as for others, but
do not make the mistake OF doing
for him alone"
The latest marital difficulty of the
one-time dazzling favorite of thea
tergoers is the suit which her hus-
band. Albert Gallatin Wheeler, IT.,
banker and broker. began against
her a few days ago. Mr.. Wheeler,
from whom she obtained legal
separation and $4,000 a year ALI
mony four years ago. is the son OF
the Chicago millionaire subway
builder. and is said to be worth
some millions in his own right.
WAS THE GIRL
OF ROSY TIGHTS.
1t was in 1898 that Miss Carlstedt,
then known as the girl in the rosy
tights" was married to Mr.. Wheel
er. They went to a beautiful coun-
try home in Connecticut and then
launched upon a career of social
activity which made them well
known at most of the famous re-
sorts in Europe and America. Fol-
lowing this came the spectacular
case in the Supreme Court, in which
Mrs. Wheeler alleged that her hus-
band deserted her. The outcome
was their legal separation.
II loved my husband with love
that was more than love-" Mrs.
Wheeler once said in explaining her
unhappiness. My thoughts never
turned away from him. 1t never
occurred to me to look to another
for love, and / wanted love from
mono other save him. lie was all in
all to me, but after we had been
married number of years another
woman entered his life and mine.
was the last one 10 find 1t out,
for my love was too great to believe
1t. And that was the trouble-too
great a love.
5 The $4,000 allowance which the
court gave Mrs. Wheeler was later
cut in half on the appeal of her hus-
band that he was unable to pay so
large an amount. Following their
separation the former stage favor
lite once again became familiar of
the boards and her husband entered
business in Chicago. Since that
time they have continually fought
each other in the courts. the wife
generally being the aggressor and
money matters generally being the
cause!
Not long ago Mrs. Wheeler said
that she intended bringing action
against the elder Wheeler for ST.
100000 on the ground that he had
aiienated her husbands affections.
The mere pittance of $500 or so a
month which she got as alimony was
in no wise suited to her needs, she
said; and what would n million less
matter anyway to a man who was
worth $40. 900, 900. Since making
that announcement she has received
bit of small change in the shape
of $4,000 from her husband in
settlement OF claims against him
for carrying off the furniture at the
time of their separation.
Just who or what is the cause
