COMNENDABLE DECISION

For the second time in year Judge Leon Yankwich
of Los Angeles, has ruled that divorce obtained in
Nevada when residence had been established in that
state solely for the purpose OF obtaining DIVORCE Is
not bona fide.
In making his ruling the judge allowed woman
plaintiff separate maintenance from her husband, des-
pte the atters claim that it should not be granted
he already obtained divorce in Nevada.
Judge Yankwich is to be commended for his cour-
age in rendering such a redfson"As pointed out in
to the same effect Nevada divorce obtained in the
manner referred to, is merely trlckery and deceit
Trickery and deceit have legal standing IN any court
If few more judges and few moro states would
follow the lead assumed by Judge Yankwich, Nevada
might be induced the of her way The ease
with which divorces obtained there is little short
of national scandal Granting the right of each state
to make its laws, conditions prevailing in Nevada
are the best argument fer uniform divorce law
throughout the country.
Figuratvey speaking Senator Bingham is now eat
ing his meals off the mantle shelf.
We hope the senate doesn't act the tariff within
the two weeks limit set by President Hoover just so
we can learn what he will do.
New York is rejecting Jimmy Walker today. The
big town knows good bit Of advertisement when 1t
is placed before it.
The stock market these days is pretty much in the

on green apples
The trains out of Washington are likely to be well

PAIN In YOUR
SHOULDER
Use TysmOl for Relief

Knife.likc jabs of pain IN inc
vicinity Of the shoulder blade are
generally due to neuritis, brought
on by exposure to draughts or SUD
den changes Of weather. In some
eases there is stiffness or soreness
in the muscles, making it difficult
to raise the arm.
The safest and easiest way to re-
licvc such an attack is to apply
small quantity of Tysmol over the
affected area. This soothing. hcanng
preparation is quickly absorbed
through the pores and carried to .h'
throbbing, aching peripheral nerves;
The pains usually stop at once, ana
in n very short time the last trace
of soreness should disappear.
