The BATTERED ONE AND THE SOB WRITER
FRATERNIZE IN PATHOS COURT

oNO WA1IST SAT III the court OF
domestic relations, her chin cupped
penslVely in her hand, when she was
given dig in the side by a pointed
elbow.
Say" some one whispered, "ain't
this the limit? This gangs here,
croWding the place to the doors, with
the S. R o. sign up outside, and
what they want to give the once over
is me taking the count. Wouldn't it
give you green apple pain? Push
up and let me sit beside you. There's
thirteen danes in this jury box now
and you're the only one that know
well enough to crowd on the same

1T is a sad sight," said the sob
writer, wondering about the identity
of the mortal who addressed her, his
eye beautifully blackened, his Lip
split, two teeth knocked out and an
ear looking as though it had been
chewed. But the S. W., with respect
for grief, moved over and made room
on her chair for him to sit beside her
and forebore to question him.
There comes the preliminary
bout, said the bedraggled one W.
Murphy came to the bar. With w.

This is case of a man who mar |

and puts her in rooming house to
take in roomers while he contributes
the greater part of his wage to the
five children by his former wife,"
said the lawyer for Mrs. w. Murphy.
Let me speak," said the lawyer
for Mr.. W. Murphy. This is the case
of an elderly, gray-haired man who

the $15, but he was willing to give his
wife what was left. Judge Hopkins
told them to go home and try it out
that way.
The bedraggled one pushed his, ell

VOWS he is unfaithful to her and has

could watch the witnesses and wiring
her hands. On the other side of the
table sat Curry, the leading man,
when he wasn't standing up coaching
his lawyer.
There was dark question of di-
vorce. Nobody was quite clear whose
divorce. One witness was sure that
Mrs. Curry had had no matrimonial
entanglements other than the one to
Curry. Another witness was sure it
was Mrs. Curry who got a divorce
from David Halfway. Mrs. Curry's
lawyer intimated darkly that the lady
who got the divorce was a deceased
aunt. And Mrs. Curry wrung her
hands and asked Asst States Atty
Rosinia to shut up so she could listen

Are you swatting the fly? Have you
seen any flies to swat? If not, be on
guard and massacre the first one that
shows himself. Scientists tell us that
every fly.we kill now means that there
will be millions less to kill later in the
season. And others, who were paid by
commissions to pay attention to the
war waged upon this pest last year are
firm in their belief that the nation is on
the right track to .exterminate the little
nuisance. Last year was really the
first when any determined effort was
made, speaking broadly. Housewives
all over the United States took arms
against it as a common foe, and the
result was that many communities re-
ported even a distinctly visible de-
crease in the number of flies through
out the summer, and in some instances
reports stated the determination was
almost complete. Think of thirty million
women with perhaps as many children
swatting dozen flies day! 1t is
plainly seen fine war car. be won. All
that is needed is determined effort in
every home. And the swatter need
not be the only instrument used Aid
ed by the use of good fly paper or
traps, the work will go forward much
more rapidly. It's cause worthy of
your cooperation. At first, the idea of
exterminating the fly by killing them
individually was ridiculed, but sea-
sons determined effort proved that it
is not impossible, and the coming sum-
mer will give even more positive proof
But all must help. Do your Swatting
early.

Bryan Says People
To Discard Duelist
Standards in Future

HBRMoSA BEACH. Cal. July l4.-In
an impromptu address delivered at re-
ception here today, William ]. Bryan,
former secretary of state. declared the
people would discard the standard of the
duelist He referred to his own military
experience In the Spanish-American war
and said that II war should come again
to the United States the country would
have all the volunteers II needed.
He said: II believe that II what l have
done should promote the cause of peace,
have the great mass of the American
people with me. That does not mean that
the American people will not fight II 1t
should become necessary. If war should
come there would be all the volunteers
that could be used. but until that time
comes the people have the rig-lt to dis
cuss the cause of war.
LAS soon as the Spanish-American war
broke out l was one of the first TO offer
my services and did not leave the army
until the war closed. l am the only de-
feated candidate for the presidency who
ever offered his services to the man who
defeated him,
81 believe the people of the country
will use better Judgment, will reject and
discard forever the standards of honor
of the duelist.
