Wives Who Go With Kiddies Must Feed ’Em Washington, May 25.—A husband cannot be compelled to support u wife anywhere except in his own house, provided ho has given her no just cause to leave him. Furthermore, if a wife leaves her husband without just cause, taking the children along, the duty of supporting them belongs to her and not to him. These edicts were spread across the high court annals of the country today through a decision rendered by the United States Court of Appeals. They arc regarded by the legal fraternity as epochal in their effect on litigation involving domestic relations. s RULING QUOTED Said the court: "A husband who is able and willing to support his wife and gives her no just cause to abandon him or leave his bed and board cannot be compelled to support her elsewhere than at his own house if he lias one." The effect of the decision according to lawyers, will be to devolve upon tradesmen the necessity of determining the circumstances of a seperation before providing an estranged woman with even the nec essities of life, for the husband is not always liable. X The decision was rendered in the ease of t|wo women who took care of a wife and Niree children, the wife having left her husband, taking tlie children along. COMPENSATION DENIED The court,decided she left without proper cause and reversed a lower court decision which had ordered the husband to pay $4,120 to those who had fed and housed his estranged family. o Insurance Man Tells of Friend’s Recovery “He suffered considerably from gas in stomach and colic attacks, and at times was very yellow. His doctors diagnosed his ailment as gall bladder trouble and that an operation was necessary.

It is a simple, harmless preparation that remoi®s the catarrhal mucus from the • intestinal tract and allays the inflammation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, including appendicitis.
