And Darling said he couldn't
stand 1t another hour. just the
thought Of somebody else coming
between him and Smokey Eyes
drove him crazy. He was going to
| divorce his wife-he'd find some
way to get rid of her. What right
did she have TO ruin his life. why
should he stick TO her when his
love was gone-whatever little love
he had ever imagined he had for
her?
OF course he lever knew what
real love waS-until he met Smokey
Eyes and now what do you think,
the deceitful thing isn't going TO
divorce his wife at all and 1t looks
now as If he never intended to di-
vorce her.
But-what about Smokey Eyes?
And she sued her Handsome
Darling for one hundred thousand
dollars for breach Of promise.
And several thousand gentlemen
who have imagined that they were
perfectly safe as long as they were
married are having rather trouble
some dreams Just now.
Smokey Eyes just hates to think
OF what her Handsome DarlinR's
wife said when she heard about
the breach Of promise suit. Espe-
