The husband had or-- nally filed a bill on November 5, f last year in which he charged Eruelty and likewise charged infi-- ruty citing several incidents which was alleged took place in ('.hannel' Lake, Winthrop Harbor and Wau--' egan, but the husband later filed | ::':mended cross bill in which he ged that he was struck over r head with a catsup bottle on August 15, 1925, and again over the s'd with a 20--pound iron toy tnln!

She became frantic in her agony. She started the machine, but drove it but a short distance and then col-- lapsed. The auto stopped crosswise on the concrete. i October 25, 1927. Mother Given Children The infidelity charges were not fessed in the hearing of the case, Jwever. The custody of the two iildren was awarded to the mothe" F Judge Edward Shurtlieff.

KIRSCHNER -- SUCCUMBS TODAY Governor Bibb Graves of Alabama acted promptly when he received word of the plight of thousands of people in the flooded regions. His appeal for aid resulted in rescues of hundreds of people, especially at Elba, who were marooned on their housetops facing what had appeared to be almost certain death fessor. William the Conqueror subsequently granted them the priv-- llege of an almost independent state, under command of a warden, with a court at Dover castle. The fAive ports were Sandwich, Dover, Hythe, Romney and Hastings. Win-- chelsea and Rye were added later. Up to the reign of Henry VII their chief function was the supply of the . country's naval contingent. Dating from the revolution of 1688 their privileges were gradually abolished. The lord warden's juris-- diction ceased in 1835. The Cinque ports were originally Hve seaport towns on the coast of Kent and Sussex, England, called in early times "the five most importan:t havens in the kingdom." They were enfranchised by Edward the Con-- room and a large «ssembly hail that can be used for community gatherings. There are plans, too., for a kitchen. The bond issue to provide for this structure was carried a; an ele~ tion Saturday, 13 to 2. The art of tattooing still flour-- ishes in the Samoan isliands where the natives tattoo their bodies from the hips to the knees. A tattooer's profession is very lucrative. His instruments resemble combs, and are made of human bones of dif-- ferent sizes. The operation takes from two to three months, during which time a patient remains in the same retired place. All this time the relatives of the young person bring mats, money and food, but if the quantity does not suit the tattooer, he "goes on strike," refusing to procéed until sufficient liberality is displayeq. The requis-- ite gifts are sure toutzz brought, for no Samoan could ure going balf tattooed. The trustees there are forced to add to the two room school be-- cause the enrollment this year reached 85 pupils and overfiowed the structure.
