RIGHT TO BEAT WIFE
is DECREED IN PARIS
Court Decision Arouses Strong Re
sentiment and Case May
Be Appealed.

Correspondence of The Star.
PARIS.-That man has the right
to beat his wife is decision handed
down in a ruling by the Paris Di-
vorce Court.
A husbands privilege is to punish
his wife for any dereliction from her
matrimonial duties. or even f she
irritates him beyond control, it was
circumstances cannot plead for di-
vorce if she charges her husband
with cruelty. The husbands coun-
sci maintained that if a man struck
his wife she no doubt well deserved
it. Decision was based on the
ancient code of a husbands light to
punish a wife for failure in her
duties.
The case has aroused deep excite
ment among women, who seem intent
on fighting the decision. One of the
first women to be admitted to the
bar, Mime. Freaud, in a statement
said: THE ruling is absurd and is
not justified in law. One of the three
| causes for divorce admitted by
French law is assault and battery.
But no article of law grants the hus-
band the right to beat his wife nor
husband, though / remember cne
amazing case in which a delicate
little woman exercised q veritable
reign of terror over a man who was
SO big that it was some time before
I could bring myself to believe that
this could possibly be true"

L|NDBERGH PLANE
ATTRACTS THRONG
Steady Stream of Autos and
Pedestrians in Pilgrimage
to HainS Point.

A steady stream of automobile traf-
f1c bearing hundreds of people, aug
mented by hundreds more afoot, pass
ed around the roadway to Hams
Point, in West Potomac Park, yester-
day, making pilgrimage to the little
ship of the air which conquered the
North Atlantic and it's surrounding
elements, when it bore Col. Charles
Lindbergh on a nonstop flight be-
tween New York and Paris.
Members of the park police said
that it was the largest continuous We
hicular movement they had ever
known in the parkway. There have
been as many on the roadway at one
time. but this was only a matter Of
minutes or a few hours, but the pill
grimage yesterday lasted throughout
the day and part of the night.
The single roadway was saturated
with traffic for the entire period, and
1t was kept moving slowly onward.
When the parking space was once
filled. others who came after were re-
quired to keep on the move. The
slowness with which the traffic moved
gave those in the automobiles an op-
portunity to get a good view of the
plane.
No one could examine it closely, for
1t was kept safely away from the
hands of souvenir hunters. 1t was on
a large Navy barge. just a few feet
off the seaWall, and not even launches
were allowed to approach it closely.
Naval seamen stood guard on the
barge, and no ordinary civilian was
allowed to get aboard.
Thousands who made the pilgrim
age on foot crowded the seawall for
hours. studying the little craft which
has made history within the past
month, and many of them expressed
wonder that such little craft could
have accomplished such a great feat.

FISH TAKES LONG TRIP.
Spoonbill Catfish Caught in Kan
sas, Supposedly From Gulf.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CEDAR POINT, Kans., June 10
A fisherman of East Marion County
a few days ago caught large spoon
bill catfish, probably the first of its
kind ever caught in the Cottonwood
River. The fish weighed about 8
pounds and had a bill more than 8
inches long.
How this specie of fish happened to
be in the Cottonwood is a mystery un-
less it had come from the Gulf of
Mexico. where it is said they may be
found in great numbers. If it came
from the gulf it must have travelled
thousands of miles and probably was
several years in making the long trip.

BARBER BARS SMOKING.
Had to Prohibit It Because It Had
Affected His Eyes.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

STONINGTON, Me-, June 10
''Please Do Not Smoke" This sign
hangs in the barber shop of William
Brimigion. So far as known it's the
only barber shop in Maine in which
smoking is prohibited. Bill is not a
crank, not by any means. For 25
years he was an inveterate smoker
but he blames smoking for trouble
with his eyes, so it was a case of
forbidding smoking in his shop or
going out of business.
His customers. many Of whom he
had known for 35 years or more, did
not take offense, and Bill continues
to do a rafting good business.

Fifteen years Of research and exper-

But the result has justified the effort.
For today we can offer the women OF
America cream, delicate and fragrant
that not only cleanses the skin CON-
pletely, but nourishes it-tones it-leaves
it ready for powder. A cream which
regularly used, keeps the skin as smooth
and fine as Nature intended it to be.
The secret of this remarkable new
cream is its "solubility the fact that
it can be washed entirely away with
cold water. 1t penetrates the pores,
loosens every trace of dust and CRIME
and then disappears entirely leaving
the pores clean able to breathe.
With this new cream, astringents are
unnecessary, for clean pores contract
naturally. Vanishing creams are
superAuous.
