Mrs. Cora NJ. Dorian looks upon the

spots in her married life of seventeen
years OF medieval treatment, accord

and $500 counsel fees. Dr. Dorian, in
an answer to her suit, denied that he
was ever other than a Kind and con-
siderate husband.
lie took that wedding anniversary
day off, her affidavits allege- to meet
at the pier a young woman coming
from Havana, where he had met her
when recuperating, unaccompanied by
his wife. from an automobile accident.
When Mrs. Dorian asked TO go along
he refused to take her, she oecites.
"His mind was unquestionably
stronger than mine and he acted toward
days" the complaint stated. IT don't
believe the defendant ever thought OF
me after the first few years as his
wife; he seemed 10 act moro as IL I
were his chattel. And i. like the
medieval woman, was content to let
him do as he pleased. and was flat
tered to receive smile or kind word

BOY LOST IN NEW YORK
TO SEE CIRCUS ANYWAY
Ringiings ReUard Jersey Lad
Who Was Disopp ointed.

SO far as Morris Levine In concerned
the sun shone IN Perth Anhboy. y. j.,
yesterday for the first time since last
Saturday morning. for late In the after
noon Morris, who IS IL years old and
runs errands for his fathers butcher
shop. received a telegram fnpm the Ring
ling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Cir
Gus inviting him 70 be the guest of the
management at the performance next
Saturday in Madison Square Garden.
The telegram said that letter was fol-
lowing with his railroad mcket and his
ticket 20 the circus.
Morris almost went TO she circus last
Saturday, and the circus folks think that
any boy who tried as hard TO get there
as he did deserves 10 succeed. Morris
had amassed the comfortable fortune Of
s1.t4 last week, and he figured that this
ought TO take him TO New York and into
the circus and then back home. SO last
Saturday morning he purchased a ticket
10 New York, and once here he bought
Il map Of the city. Then he got lost and
wound up I'm City Hall Park, and there
he sat on O bench al the afternoon.
Patrolnnan Joyce of Traffic a found him
sitting disconsolately In the park, and
he was sent home.
