NEW YORK--'Too many young couples of the present day are suffer ing from an overdose of domesticity.
 This. according to Miss Lucille Pugh, attorney at law for more than 13 years at 13 Broadway. just a whisper orr Wan Street, is the great underlying cause for the fact that divorce is not now subject to luxury tax, having grown to be a staple.

As a result it brows dull. And when it grows dull it causes neglect. And

 neglect certainly causes divorce.
 Unhappy marriage does not burst forth as the sudden realization of mu tual defect. One of the marriage part ners drops the little attentions, the sweetheart kindliness, the tiny consid erations. and plants the divorce seeds. Neglect is the fertile divorce field.
 Leads to Neglect
 '1t is not the husband who stays out one night a week or who even leaves his wife alone several nights a week who is guilty of neglect so much as the husband who is at home every night and yet omits the little attentions that are the spirit and evidences of love. So the woman may also be neglectfu1.
 "One great wrong invites forgiveness, for it does not show the man in his character, but out of it. A series of slurs or neglect leads to hate.' vqgso1 6 $5$5 0404 9393 S2S2 939382
