That wasn't on the card which was handed up to Magistrate Cornell In the Donestle Relations Court to-day, but had It been, His Honor might have bee: more quickiy informed on the where fore of the presence of James Bruc Lindsay, civil engineer, before him on the charge of wife abandonment.

Mis bride, he found, was a very pretty and charming girl. She was then twen- ty-soven years old. She was at the reapide, taking the rest cure. She was @ high-class manicure. By that is meant that she selected her own cli- entele, She attended the ladies at the Newport and others of the swagger set. All this she had told to her humband two days before, but she had to tell it to him all over again. The courtship had been @ short one, the road to the tar @ apeedy run. On me th of June they had met on the board walk; on the %th they met before the altar. The girl's story was that Lindsay had represented himself to be a man of | monéy and who was going to have more money, He lavished pre-nuptial din: Heiresses Ought IK%O ba GREELEYESM! deficit? for loss? ‘The moment we place the home on @ bnsiness basis we eliminate sentimental values. Therefore, why should the wife divide the profit nies she is in @ position to hal the losses? But let the home profit sharing scheme speak for itself. Here 1s what its orig! nator has to say: TO RUN TriE HOME ON THE CO- OPERATION PLAN. Dear Madam: Certain critics have | urged that wives be put on a salary basis in the kitchen and about the house. Without attempting to go into | réndsay was then, as sie te now, Iving | jwith her sister, Mrs. Fanny Reynolds, | | twenty-one years old, @ blonde and) beautiful. Another honeymoon dinner! was planned, and the wife, happy in the return of her lord, went out to pluck the markets of their best. When she returned her husband had gone again. Mrs, Reynolds, with her husband, went | last night to the Hroadway Theatre | Just before the curtain rolled up for} the last act she pied her brother-in- law. He was gitting a few seats from) her with a handsome, da eyed bru- nette, The play had no further charms for Mrs. Reynolds. She went out and telephoned to her sister, and when James Bruce Lindsay, engineer and jag- gist, e#tepped from the theatre hie lady on his arm, he was pinched. He gratefully acknowledged his wife and bowed to her beautiful sister and her! husband, “Come, we'll fix this," he sald all go and have a drink.” MIGHT HAVE FIXED IT WITH A DRINK, BUT—— But a rude copper said there would de no drink, and that’s how it hap- Dened that Magistrate Cornell met the civil engineer to-day. When Mra, Lind- ay told her story her runaway husband was put under @ bond of $48 until he could dig up @ weekly allowance for his wife. The Magistrate thought that $16 & week would be about right, but after heanng the man's story, this wai @uced to $9 a week, Lindsay wa: 0 on probation in Heu of the bond The civil engineer had the nicest things to say about his wife. Indeed, he said, he knew that he should con- sider himself fortunate, but he was not the sort of man for any woman's Mfe partner. His story of his life, as told to the Magistrate, sounded like a page torn from the “Tales of the Ex- Tanks.” He was born in Nashville, Tenn, and was graduated from the Lamburg Untvereity of his native State was the building of dams and all sorts of enginee His knowledge of Irrigi “Let's ners on her, they went boating and swimming together.

The bride- groom got his dill, She paid it, To do thie she had to pawn her jewels. Then, to get home, she had to wire to her sis- ter in New York to send her $0. ‘The awakening from this jag was the sweetest James Bruce Lindsay had ever encountered. He refused to awaken. His wife took him to her flat at No, 24 Bast Fittieth street. This was furnished completely; everything nice, comfortable and cosy, All the bridegroom had to do was to come in and hang up his hat.

(The New York World). to Wed Salaried WEEP ALL THE MONEY What do you think of the idea of Profiteharing in the home? In answering the question as to what the wife's portion of the family income should be, a young man of- fers this highly ingenious sugges tion: | Let the husband and wife treat’ the family income as @ common fund, | he says, and look upon the monthly balance as profits of the home to be divided equally. This suggestion is flawless in so far as the sharing of profits is con- verned, But suppose there aren't any profits? Suppose there. is Now, | incidentals of all kinds, including home and ilfe insurance, his tobacco and her chewing gum, there will be, perh a balance of $9 left over unexpended. This represents the net profit of thelr month's business, and, accomiing to the theory of sharing Joys and woes alike, she is properly entitled to one-half of this money. Let Smith give it to his wife or de- poalt it In the bank in her name, If both are square, and if their love Je genuine, this ought to solve the matter in nearly every ca where moderate income ts Involved. And if the love and desire to pull to- gether be really mutual, there will be no such catastrophe as that of trying to support a $50 wife on a $15 dividend, N. A.W. If all women were and continued to be self supporting under all cir- cumstances, or if, failing this, they | entered the marriage relation equal terms ‘with their husbands by providing @ ao thea this profit sharing notion would be ideally just and right. As things are, it is merely ideally generous, which, as most women view things, iw the ideal way for husbands to be. roviding an interesting contrast t the Mberality of the profit sharing sug- gestion in a letter I have received from & husband who protests against my re- mark that a wife is entitled to @ per- sonal allowance. And I thought I was gulity of a platitude when I made the statement. The husband writes HE GETS NO ALLOWANCE, WHY SHOULD HIS WIFE? Dear Madam: Y x Instance ts a man § ing his wife of a personal allowance and so forcing her to petty eubter- fuges to obtain the money he con- siders her unfit to handle,” In other words, I must give her a certain amount with which she the pros and cons of this scheme, let me make a counter suggestion which might fill in admirably until the economists are ready to publish their universal housewives’ salary scale. Suppose that Smith earns $1% per month. His wife does all the house- | keeping except the washing and scrubbing, Let him keep his house- hold account book on the library table, entering from time to time | money received and pata out, under the proper headings.
