That ts a part of the opinion uttered the other day by Supreme Court Justice Giegerich when be dismissed the suit for, separation brought by Mrs. Virginia D. Cosby against Capt. Arthur F. Cosby, lawyer, former Rough Rider and Chairman of the Military Training Camps Committee. Justice Glegerich expressed hope for the reconciliation of Capt, and Mrs. Cosby, who were married in 1904 and have had three children, two of them now Living though crippled by infantile paraly- is three years ago. An interesting paragraph in Justice Giegerich's opinion concerns Mrs. Cosby, of whom be says that 4 wy a he is “not convinced that she is not chiefly responsible i the domestic troubles.” He conti i “She was reared in luxury, but ‘after her father's death his estate wad lost, 90 that she has been dependent on the earnings her husband was able to make. No claim is made that he hae not used every effort to obtain as large an income as possible. The @laim is made, however, that he has been hard, cruel and parsim, At is plain, from the evidence and from the brief, that the troubles kener- had their origin in differences arising between the parties as to ex- 4 the defendant struggling to live within his means and the plain- ing for larger allowances for living expenses.” The court adds bas deen right in dis attitude as to expenditures pa found anywhere in the world He wears ghadby overcoats, eats cheap|- lunches, dispenses with a vacation, supports not only his wife and chil- dren, but his wife's relatives—ail as it there were for him no possible al- ternative, ‘The average American wife may be sure her husband is giving her just as much money ag he can give her.

Tooth ached all night—had that pulled out too, First thing ever ex- tracted from the baron in his life, Baron mad enough to eat tacks when he got to his office, Got a statement of excess profit tax and that made him madder. Rings for stenographer—that is, calls him in a ringing voice. Milk baron shaking all’ over with rage—some milk shake! Dictates a letter to the Public. Something like this: “Dear Public: Hate to say it, but milk’s going up again. Gotta have’ new-mown hay for the cows, so you furnish the new moan. Sorry, but cheer up—it'll go higher still. There's a bull market in milk. Advise al) in- vestors to buy it now—sure to go up to 22. Yours truly rural, Mike the Milk Monarch.” End of paragraph. New paragraph. “To my Faith- ful, Cow-Workers—No! Make it Co-Workers. That's it—To My Faithful Co-Workers: We've got- ta get more for milk. Soak the public! Also soak the milk — with the same stuff you soak clothes in. Hereafter a small- sized quart sells the same as a large-sized pint—which is as much as you can get for it. Do thia to prevent shrinkage of profits—but remember, water never makes milk shrink. Yours, MIKE.” End paragraph. That's all to-day—get out! Get those letters out too! Stenog. exits. Baron now in good humor. Raises office boy's pay from $7 a week to $5.50. Phones wife to buy those fur- lined ear-rings. Chuckles to hims@lf. Fine old guy! Reporter ushered in. Baron takes a seat—the reporter’s—an@ throws him out. Reporter comes in again—he’s more afraid of going back to his city editor than going back to the barori, Wants to know why milk is so high—tells how babies are ery- ing for’it. Baron says babies shouldn't cry—not even over spilled milk. Claims you'll find that one in the Book of Prov- orbs. Baron also tells public to rest easy. Public wouldn't be soaked for milk unless it WAS easy. Tells reporter milk has been higher than it is now. When the cow jumped over the moon. Also assures him milk will come down when the cows come home. Reporter starts on new tack— now HE'S mad enough to cat * ‘em. Wants to know if butter’s 70 cents a pound and milk 20 cents a quart, why buttermilk is only 5 cents a glasg. Serious Question! Baron answers it by raising buttermilk to 10 cents a glass. ‘ Next question is what the farmers are getting. Facts show farmers are getting up at 3 A. M., and that’s about all. Farim- ers raise hay to feed the cows and milk trust raises price to feed the babies. That makes it fifty-fifty, except the trust gets both fifties. : Another important thing is condensed milk. Trusts sel) all the dip milk. they can, and what they can’t they can. It's a little deep, but hang on and you'll get it. Furthermore, and even fur- ther than that, condensed milk’s a necessity. Whole argument settles down to: Who's gonna pay for the baron’s new yacht? Somebody's gotto pay for it—can’t charge yachts any more. If the baron’s gotta have the yacht, he's gotta raise the price. And that’s the solution. He RAISES the price —of milk.

Its sheer outer walls rose to a height of from 35 to 40 feet, or thred stories, on three sides of the rectangle, while built low to admit sunshine to the court, was perhaps only one story high.
