WIFE CHARGES INSULTS
IN DIVORCE PETITION
Mrs. Evelyn M. Glascox Declares
Husband Has Failed to Pro-
vide for Her,

Alleging that her husband has in
suited her, neglected to support her
and has treated her cruelty. Mrs. Eve
lyn NJ. Glascox filed suit today for a
limited divorce from Charles A. Glas
cox. Justice Siudons issued a rule on
the husband to show cause March 19
why he should not pay temporary ali
nlony to his wife.
Mrs. Glascox, through Attorneys
Darr & Peyser. tells the court she was
married at Baltimore May 4, 1912, and
that there are no children. For six
months. she says. her husband was
attentive to her. but then began TO
stay out late at night, leaving her
alone until early hours of the morning.
When her husband neglected to sup
port her. the wife says, she obtained
employment in the office of a laundry
conducted by her brother. where she
gets IS per week. The wife tells the
court she saved $50 from her wages.
which, at the suggestion of her hus-
band. she gave to him to put in bank
for her. She declares he never re-
turned any portion of the money to
her.
The wife AYERS that the husband
suggested and urged her to entertain
other men at the apartment and in
"other manners insulted her sense of
decency." She asserts that her hus-
band spends much time in the COM
pany of other women.

that Blanche's invitation had been a
temptation in the guise of friendship.
The tea boiled over and aroused her.
She snatched the tin cup off Just in
time to save the gas jet. 1t was bit
terly strong, but reviving. She drank
1t to the last drop and ate her crackers
bravely. Then she put the pink dress
back in the trunk and turned the key
In the lock reSolutely.
Half an hour later the landlady called
her down to the parlor. She went, half
fearing to find Blanche. But it was
Jeremy, who came quickly to her across
the faded carpet-Jeremy, big, clear
skinned. and with such a glad look in
his dear eyes. The grasp of his strong
warm hands seemed to pull Meg up out
of all the vast depths of her doubts and
trouble and misery
Il had to come to see you, Meg" he
said. I couldn't live<any longer with
out glimpse of you. 1t seems to me
you've got dearer every minute you've
oeen away. Meg, run and get your
things on and we'll go somewhere for
supper. And then Wen take in play,
I've got lot to say to you, dear"
Hail an hour later, as Meg and Jere-
my passed down on the further side
OF Henry street. she saw and heard a
group on the corner-two fancily dress
ed girls and three men of the type one
soon grows accustomed to in the CITY.
The thought that they were waiting
Tor her made her shudder and shrink
closer to Jeremy's big, protecting
shoulder. He felt her touch and smiled
down at her.
And in his smile Meg found peace and
safety and happiness that was to las
her her whole life long.

Spelling.
From tine Ohio State Journal.

The following words were given out
to twenty-five students of the Illinois
State University on a spelling test:
Accommodate, dissipate, disappoint.
laboratory. embarrassment, athletics.
lose, courtesy, professor, stopped, pre-
cede, harass, companies. interfered, in
ferred, noticeable. lovable, Thackeray.
Macaulay. proceed, acknowledgment,
permissible" OF the twenty-five only
thirteen reached the required grade.
The lowest percentage of accuracy
was A and the highest sc.
Even after long experience as a
proofreader and writer we hesitate
at some of these words yet. There are
words we have gone to the dictionary
with a hundred times. One doesn't
learn spelling. 1t Is all a habit and
often that habit fails one. There is
one pitfall that one is bound to tum-
BILE into and that is. when one ques-
tions the spelling of the word he is
about to write. When that moment
comes he is "goner." He has then to
consult a dictionary.
The true way to learn spelling is by
composition work, the best educational
exercise from the a, b, c's to moral
philosopy. If we were board of edu-
cation and found school that neglect
ed composition work we would scatter
1t to the four winds.

SET PATENT OFFICE AFIRE.
Furnace Used for Burning Of Waste
Paper Became Overheated.

The recent fire at the patent office
was caused by an overheated furnace
in the room adjoining that in which
the fire originated, according to re-
port filed with Chief Clerk Ayers to-
day by committee of patent office
officials.
The room in which the fire started
contained a lot of stationery and doc
uments In the adjoining room was a
furnace used daily in burning up the
waste paper from the patent Office
building. The dividing wall had been
burned away until there were only
about four inches of brick. The fur
mace at times became so hot that it
heated the thin walls, which in turn
heated the documents which were
packed tightly against the dividing
wall in the other room.
