SHE TOO is AT FAULT
Court Holds Married Woman Cannot
Receive Proposals.

Des Moines. April 23.-Can a mar
ricd woman receive marriage pro-
posal? Even IL she's considering di.
vorce and not on speaking terms with
her husband?
The law says no.
Because of this fact the public may
not see some of the Monrad Olsen love
letters to Mrs. Ida Johnson. According
to the court Mrs. Johnson had no right
to listen to marriage proposals while
she was married. Olsen's demurrer TO
that effect has been sustained.
The $4,000 breach of promise suit
against Olsen will be heard in the
May term of court.
