WIFE WON'T COOK
FOR HIM ANYMORE
So Jacob Meier of Milwau-
kee Asks for Divorce
From Wife.
HAVE OTHER REASONS
Others Threaten to Kill and
Have Little Pleasantries Like
that for Their Mates.

Jacob Meier, protesting vigorously
against a wife whom he says refuses
to cook any meals for him, has COM
menced action for divorce with the
filing of complaint in the municipal
court with Myrtle Meier the defendant.
The couple was married at Fond du
Lac, June 10, 1922. They have one
child, Edwin Otto. Meier says that
his wife refuses to cook for him, neg
| lects her household, and shows no in
clination for his company. On the
other hand, she spends her time with
other men friends, he declares. Both
have been living at Milwaukee, and
the plaintiff is represented by Mil
waukee attorney.
Threw His Attentions"
In the next complaint to be filed in
a Milwaukee divorce suit, it is wo-
man who has things to say. Lille
Flintoff is the plaintiff; Fred Flint
off the defendant. They were married
att Milwaukee, December 81, 1915.
They have no children.
The chief cause of Mrs. Flintoff's
suffering which brings her to the
point of filing suit for divorce, is, in
the words of her attorney, the fact
that her husband "threw his atten-
tions to other women"
Eva Hansen, the third at litigation,
protests at life with Kent Hansen.
They were married at Milwaukee,
February 2, 1921, and have one child,
Violet, who was three years old on
March Is, 1925, and who is now living
with the plaintiff. Non-support is
charged. Mrs. Hansen said that her
husband was unable even to meet pay
ments on a victrola which he pur-
chased so that it was finally taken
away from them.

complaint in which she is plaintiff,
and Herbert Louis Reese the defend
ant, has charges that are little more
varied and interesting. These two
were married at. Milwaukee, July 49,,
1925; they have no children.
| According to Mrs. Reese, on one oc-
casion her husband thrust a revolver
in her face and said, "I'll kill you!
I'll put every she'll in your body if
! you novel" Later she moved out of
the house, and now moves in court
that her petition be granted.

charges that her husband is an
habitual drunkard, and that once he
struck her h broom handle.
