50 now can l get divorce! l nave not one thing to get a divorce on, no grounds at all.
 I have baby 10 months old. My husband adores the baby and me, and it will hurt him cruelty to lose us, but Fl do not feel that 1 can stay in this rut any longer. MRS. F. I.
 Answer: I should think, Mrs. E. l., that the thing for you to do is to put this unlawful love out of your life. and to brace up, and do your duty, and con- duct yourself as woman of honor and principle should. Quit seeing this man who is trying to steal you away from your husband, and who is tempting you to do mean and disloyal thing.
 You should be ashamed of yourself for even thinking of leaving a man who is so good and kind, and faithful to you. that you cannot even think of charge that you can trump up against him in order to get divorce. He has kept his part of the bargain. and if you are an honest woman you will keep yours.
 If you bought an automobile, and saw another one whose color you liked better, you wouldn't expecvt to swap the one you had for it. If you had bought house and got tired of it. you wouldn't expect to throw it back on the previous owners hands. Marriage is just as binding a contract as any other you can make, and nothing but bad faith on the part of the other party justifies you in breaking it.
 You have no right to break up your husbands home. and rob him of his child, just because you have become bored with him and another man has taken your fancy.
 And reflect on this: You probably wouldn't like the other man any better than the one you have got if you were married to him. And he certainly wouldn't make you as good husband.
 DOROTHY DIX. Dear Miss Dix-Is it possible to fall deeply in love with a man who is not your ideal? LITTLE GIRL.
 Answer: Not only possible, but virtually everybody does it. The slogan of real love is, With all thy faults, I love thee still.' Our ideal man and woman is something that we can create to amuse ourselves and to play with. We never meet them in real life, and if we did they would never attract us. There is nothing in icy perfection to call forth our affections. The man or woman we fall in love with is a poor. weak, faltering human being that we can forgive, and pity, and cherish.
 None of us measures upto the ideal standard of a man or woman ourselves. What would we do with model hus- band or wife?

My Neighbor Says:

The easiest way to thaw frozen water pipes is with boiling water. Before trying to turn faucet that is frozen dip rag in boiling water and lay it on the faucet for a min ute and it will turn easily. If you attempt to turn it when frozen you may crack it or else crack the pipe. On cold nights be sure there is of water on the stove when you go to bed, and leave a stream of cold water the size of a lead pencil running in the kitchen sink. If the stream is smaller it is like ly to freeze. Water in motion will not freeze unless the motion is too slight.
 Use plaster of paris. mixed with vinegar instead of water when fill ing cracks. This will give the plaster the consistency of putty and it will not set for 20 or 30 min utes. whereas if water is used the plaster will harden before you have time to use it. if there are many cracks to be filled

Wrong Impression Created in Re
port of Case Dismissed.

An article printed in The Star
August Is relative to the dism issal of
the cases of John kirschner and
William Koch, the first named pas
senger on an interurban motor bus
and the latter. the driver of the bus
charging one with riding on the run
ming board of the bus, and the other
with permitting the man to so ride,
gave the impression that Judge John
p. Mcmahon, hearing the case, had up
held the contention advanced by At
torney Chapman w. Fowler for de-
PENDANTS that the court had no juris-
diction nor did the police have the
authority to enforce the regulations
of the District of Columbia Public
Utilities Commission.
Judge Mcmahon says that these
two questions were not passed upon
by him and that the case was dis
missed upon agreement between AS
sistant Corporation Counsel Madigan
and Attorney Fowler for the defend
ants.
