You simply rub Musterole on the

No muss, no bother. Just comfort

the old-fashioned mustard plaster used

asthma, neuralgia, headache, conges-

FAULT OF HUSBAND UNWILLING
TO GO $3.50 WITH HIS MATE"
who is most often to blame, the
man or the woman?"
Above is the question most fire.
quently asked by visitors to- the
court of domestic relations, that tri-
bunal before which husbands and
wives appear with plants about
wrongs they believe they have been
done by their better or lesser halves.
She's to blame" says the man,
nearly every time.
tits all his fault" says the wife.
cts the mans fault, Is times out
of 1O0," says Judge John Stelk.
'The man, in his business or at his
work, talks loudly of square deal,'
and 5000 between man and man,
but the same man comes home and
won't go $3.50 with his wife.
"a husband may drink, smoke,
chew, swear and be perpetual null
sance or crouch around the house,
but if he keeps the -four bin filled and
the washboard in repair for his wife
he may consider that he is fulfilling
his duty and doing all he should do.
"And when the man doesn't stop
at just being general nuisance
around the house, but gets drunk,
runs around with other women and
doesn't provide for his wife and fam
lily until he's arrested and brought
in here on a nonsupport charge, then
he assumes an air of injured feelings
and says: Judge, it's all her fault;
she drove, me to it with her nagging.'
ct isn't $3.50 between husband
and wife, it's 1925 or 9O-1O, with the
ratio against the woman.
Sometimes a husband expects so
much from a. wife that the woman
who could fill all requirements would
be little less than a saint, always
eager to give and willing to take a
snarl for thanks. You see that in

man, therefore I need more than
she" though she probably has from
one to a dozen children to feed on
the pittance, which is mostly not
more than Sc a week"
A case that well illustrates this
last point of Judge SteIk came up in
the domestic relations court the
other day.
A man deserted his wife and child
and joined the army. None knew
where he was until his enlistment ex-
pired, then he was found out and a
nonsupport warrant served.
During his absence the destitute
wife and mother submitted to famil-
iarities with another man in order to
secure money to keep her and her
child from being objects of public
charity. She contracted a loathsome
disease that has undermined her
health after wiping out the little nest
egg, that she had laid away.
Now the husband says he will not
go back to live with her. He says
that he behaved himself all of the
time he was away from her, but that
she was not good, that all the money
he would give her now would be
mostly used in the Seemingly hope
less attempt to conquer the disease
You're not playing fair by your
wife, even if you did behave yourself .
in the army" the Judge told him,
"for if you hadn't left her she would
not have sold her body to buy gro
ceries and pay rent and would not.
have become diseased" g.
