And Juanita would go and saw or split
the kindling. This, by the way, in defiance
of the maxim, was the evidence she pro-
duced to sustain the charge of physical
cruelty"
Igorrote wives were supposed to look
after the physical comfort Of their spOuses.
Mrs. Miller testified with tears that once
she had found Juanita washing the feet
of her lord and master" All these things,
though quite commonplace on the islands,
gradually grew to seem to Juanita inhar-
monious with San Francisco.
And then, she told the court, John went
down to Texas to see some relatives.
When he returned he boasted, she said,
of an affinity who was younger, prettier
and more devoted to him than she. and not
only that, but with more sense in her little
finger than she (Juanita) could ever hope
to have in her beam" He told her that he
meant to take her back with him, but that
needn't prevent Juanita from coming, too,
if she cared.
Right there and then the interesting
social experiment exploded Mr.. Reavis
packed his grips and left He didn't leave
any money behind him, either, Mrs. Miller

So the court gave her a divorce-the
first on record granted to a girl before she
knew she was married!

Over in Luzon Mr.. Reavis had been &C

marriage before the April full moon, and
it had to be in papa's cypress grove and
nowhere else, and that's all there was to it.
John ReaVis took another hasty glance
over his trial bride-to-be's maxims. Her
attitude before marriage certainly didn't
seem to square with what she had to say
there. StilI-probably 1t would be all
