Too Steady Diet
Fails to Win
Brides Divorce

Pittsburgh-Fried tomatoes and Gil
cumbers may be relished occasionally
but as steady diet, Mrs. William A.
Gaskelf could not thrive on them, so
she brought suit for divorce against
her husband, a prominent young man
of Carmichael. Judge Swearingen in
Common Pleas court, who heard the
case, decided that Mrs. Gaskell had
not made out case, that the grounds
given in her complaint for seeking
divorce were not sufficient for
granting decree.
Mrs. Gaskell charged cruel and
barbarous treatment. The couple
were married January Is, 1919. and
lived together only four weeks in the
Hans Peters, arrested on the charge.
testimony the aggrieved wife declared
that the first two weeks with her
husband were not so bad, but that
the last two weeks were more than
she could stand. Her moth-in-law. for
some reason, gave her nothing to eat
but fried tomatoes and cucumbers.
Three times a day the diet was ham
ded out, the young wife declared. Com
plants that they palled on her appe-
tite fell on deaf ears. Fried tomatoes
and cucumbers bobbed up alone at
each meal and she was forced to eat
them or starve.
She also charged her husband with
cruelty, declaring that he had threat
ened to kill her. Gaskell in his own de-
Tense denied her allegations. He
stated that the food served by the
mother was well cooked, substantial
and in variety. Judge SSwearingen in
refusing the decree, stated that fried
tomatoes and cucumbers regularly for
two weeks was no great hardship.

Autumn Leaves and
How to Press Them

! Who does not love the beautiful
colors that dot the horizon in the au.
tumn, and who does not love to gather
the brightly colored leaves that blow
from the trees and carry them home
| for mother to see?
Do you know the different colors of
the trees in autumn? The naples are
yellow and frey red The oaks are
red and morocco-red. The beeches
are nut-brown. The grasses turn
straw-yellow and the weeds turn
brown; and each kind of weed has a
color for its very own and each plant
has its own color Surely there is a
wealth of color flooding the autumn
landscape and it is no wonder that
many of you are tempted to preserve
the beautiful leaves that you gather
while on your autumn walks.
When gathering the leaves always
select those that are fully matured.
1t is always best to secure them in
small punches, each bunch to contain
several leaves attached to a small
twig. Be careful not to have the twig
too long or thick or it will interfere
with the pressing. 1t is useful when
collecting the leaves to place them in
small light box with close fitting
lid. 1t is also wise to put layer of
damp (not wet) moss or grass in the
bottom of the box to keep the leaves
from drying and curling up. For
drying the leaves old smooth news
popers will do just as well as the most
expensive plotting paper. When ar
ranging the leaves between the news
papers try to place those Of the same
thickness together so that there will
be even thickness when the weights
are applied. The weights to press
the leaves may be anything heavy
big books, old soap boxes filled with
stones or sand or earth. The time re-
quired for drying the leaves varies
with the amount of sap they contain
and the dryness of the atmosphere.
After the leaves are dry and pressed,
remove the weights and the leaves
may be prettily mounted so that they
may be indefinitely preserved. Card
board of heavy mounting paper is
good for this purpase, and warm glue
is the most efficient for sticking quail
ties. Tops for blotters, or cover for
books as well as book markers and
fancy cards may be made from the
mounted leaves. Try them. They
make very inexpensive and seasonable
gifts; and the leaves are such fun to
collect and press and mount.

 "I have no paticce." says she. flor the butterfly woman of society. Every woman should have some active worthwhile interest in life. I am one of many women who. when war made its lnsistent demands. responded.
 Now that the war is over, we find we can't go back to the old idle ex- istence. Work of some sort has be- come 9 necessity.
 So far as I am concerned, I have found there is more fun to be had in doing things for oneself than in having others do it for you. In hlm which is shortly to be released, l have often to be up at work at five In the morning in order to get the best light.

THE NERRENA

THE NERBENA
 Should you receive a sprig of yer bena, the sender desires to say You enchant me"
 The old Romans held the plant in great veneration. They believed that a few leaves worn on the person would protect against injury. Roman brides, who gathered and wore a wreath of verbena, were considered fortunate.
 Gathered at Full Moon The druids dedicated the verbena to their priestesses. It was gathered at the full moon and no one was allowed to touch it with the hand. It was up- rooted by being tied to the foot of q young girl. Accidentally, it was used as a cooling remedy.
 In the Middle Ages a popular super stition was that a girl who gave her lover a wreath of verbena gathered and woven by herself, would retain hls love for at least a year. French and English peasants still believe in the power of the verbena as love charm.
 Had Magic Power
 To the Hungarian gypsies the plant is known as the lock opening herb the palm of the hand a tiny piece of the verbena leaf placed in it and the wound allowed to heal over, the person will be able to open all locks and bars with a single touch.
 The plant came by it's name from an old Roman custom. Whenever any dis pute was had with any other nation. an official called verbanerius was sent

New York-'The girl or woman who neglects to beautify her hands and arms (now that short sleeves are in vogue) has only herself to blame if she is passed by unnoticed." says that beautiful actress. Louise Huff. It only requires a few minutes twice each day to make your hands and arms beautiful and attractive. With no covering to protect the elbows they become dark and rough and no mat fer how often they are bathed they look ugly and repulsive. This can be easily and quickly oversome by talk ing proper care of them. The best way I have found to accomplish this is to soften the elbows with a good cold cream (Liska cold cream I have fouDd to be the beSt) then wipe off fhe superfluous cream with a soft cloth and apply that popular beauti- fer.
