Don't make the obvious retort about inter- fering in woman's sphere, ‘Tell him to “wee the birdie’ or “look at the great big bow-wow,” or call his attention to any other object likely to distract a ‘great big baby” from the immediate subject of his woes. ‘This ts tho advice of an expert, re- member, for Justice Ford every year solves the problems of hundreds of married couples who appear in the Gupreme Court secking separations and divorces.

Justice Ford, however, believes in di- voret He announced some months ago, in an interview In The Evening World, that it ts the duty of the hus- band to permit his wife to get a di- vorce whenever she wishes It. And as the result of this expression he re- terday a very interesting let- “A tew woeks ago,” writes the Judge correspondent, “I read an article in the newspaper where you had given your opinion on. divorce, and so thought you might be able to help me. Ten years ago I married a man from whom [ have sepurated twelve times on account ef his abuse and drink, Until the last three months he has never supported me, and I am going to business just the same as I did before I was mar- ried. We have never had any childrem. I have no parents, elther, and stand almost all alone in the world except for a brother, “A week or so ago I happened to go up for my money, and my husband sald to me that if I eyer want a divorce from him I would have to give him @ pretty nice sum of money.
