SOFIA, Bulgaria, April Sofia
has the simplest and swiftest divorce
mill In ChristiandOm.
II works where others won't.
II remained for former Sen. Henry
F. Hollis. u. S. A. to discover it.
The senator's a right smart lawyer
who used TO live in New Hampshire.
He parted from his first wife in
1912. Tried to get a New Hamp-
shire divorce. Couldn't. Tried again
in Paris. Couldn't. But the sena-
tor ie a sticker. He read interna-
tional law nights and discovered
"Sohia's simple, swift and sure d.
vorce works"
Result, the senator IS now honey
incoming in Venice with his second
wife, who was Miss Anne White
Hobbs. OF Concord. n. H. Though
his first wife, Mrs. Grace Fisher
Hollis of Princeton, y. J.. says the
divorce Is illegal and talks of max
ing trouble if the senator returns
with the second Mrs. Hollis TO Amer
lea, the senator has no fears.
In Sofia it's easier to get divorce
than II is in Reno. Proof of sep
a. alton is about all that's necessary.
Formalities are few and easily dis
posed Of.

more 20 me than a friend. In fact,
am madly in love with him.
But I do not see how he can care
for me except as a pal when his wife
Is not around l want TO make IL
clear that he never proposed any
thing 70 which a lady could object
but naturally our conversation was
always pretty personal. He certain
ly knows how 70 put a good deal OF
charm into his friendship.
His wife has come home. Now
is II wrong for me 20 continue 20 go
with him evenings as I have been
doing2"
Is IT WRONG? Is II wrong for a
girl TO take the time a man should
give 10 his wife? Is II wrong for a
girl 10 receive the condolences which
a man should make TO his wife?
Is stealing wrong?
One wonders what has become Of
the old fashioned moral teaching
which formerly was part OF a girls
home education One wonders how
some girls manage TO grow up escap-
ing the home. grown variety OF
ethics
This girl excuses to herself the
desire 10 meet the man down town
on the ground that she has no COM
pany like other girls" But when did
the loneliness of an unattached fe-
male become a sane excuse for
Switching a husband from his wife
and a father from his children?
Perhaps If this girl would read her
own letter as If II had been written
by another, she would not continue
10 be in doubt as 20 her future con-
duct.
She will have to help herself. No
body can save her from herself Her
cure depends upon her courage to
face the fact that the man in the
case is an egotist who flatters him
self that he requires more than one
woman TO fill the vacuum he calls
his heart.
The ego urge constitutes the
difference between man and the ami
mails" says one authority. II is, un-
happily, an Unsuitable urge in some
individuals.
Criminals are not the only persons
possessing an exalted ego. For ex-
ample, more than one quite fascinat-
ing married man is so selfish that he
never perceives what a crime he
commits when he flatters a young
girl into a love affair which is for
her own loss.

Tulsa. July 15.S. r. Hallman,
former justice Of the peace, and
supposed intended victim of the
second tar and feather party to
be held here in two nights, re-
turned to his home at $50 o'clock
this morning, uniniured, except
for q few minor bruises and
scratches, and minus any indica-
tions Of tarQnd feathers.
Hallman explained 70 q group
Of friends and neighbors. that
following his abduction from the
residence OF Carl Southern. across
the street from his own home at
$50 o'clock yesterday after
noon, he was driven many miles
into the Usage hills. When the
car finally stopped he was taken
out and, while his captors were
making preparations for the APP
plication Of tar and feathers that
he was able to overpower his
guard and escape into the woods.
The approach of another auto
mobile in the vicinity probably
caused part Of his guards TO be
temporarily off guard. he said.
Hallman said that he escaped
into the Usage hills minus hat
and shirt and spent the night in
hiding, fearing to move about
much as he thought his abductors
might be still searching for him.
At daybreak he ventured to
come out Of his hiding place
among the rocks and underhrush
and sought assistance at a ranch
house. The ranchman furnished
him with a hat and shirt and
drove him to his home here and
the arms of his distracted wife.
The ranchman waited until Hall
man changed hsi shirt and then
departed with the loaned gar
mcnts.
