Another girl, colored, who waa a neutral, received the contents of the coffee pot over her head and for a time had her head bandaged up. The discovery was mad that there may be som doubt about the old biblical advice to "turn the other cheek," when some one smites you.

Ills Honor pointed out that it Is uual to male property settlements when divorce proceedings are Imminent and that the natural pre sumption is that this settlement wss of that nature, since Mr. Young obtained her divorce shortly afterward Thst after the divorce all marital relations and responsibilities had ceased although the paruea could not remarry, and proof of Impropriety ten months later, even though substantiated, was not evidence of fraud and conspiracy prior to th divorce.

A nloe point of palpitating In terest anent th Invariable Im pulsiveness of passion was discussed in stern legal parlance between Lawyer Tyrrell and the court His Honor, you see, felt that pas-slonste Improprieties which had taken ten moat ha to consummate, even If proven, were scarcely evidence of a predlvorce conspiracy. Hence, on the Judge's ruling, Clara Whipple Toung remains in possession of 2000 Holly Drive of certain real estate lots, and S2375 In real money, unless, as hinted by the plaintiff- attorneys, the case is appealed. It was then that Clara Whipple Toung, who had sat through the day dry-eyed, defiant, calm, broke down. As the court retired she began to cry. 6h screamed ae the reporters gathered about her, incoherently trying to explain a confusion of issues.

They tied up my money and I nearly starved." th- broken she shrieked as a women friend endeavored to quiet her. But James Toung looked ashen gray, very tired, very worried, and he slipped quietly away.

Tet surely both of them should have been The court, even as James Toung himself, had. chosen to assume the fair defendant' virtue, certainly and particularly during that time in which she was Mrs. James Young. The complaint cited that the property involved was "all that the plaintiff possessed." So James Young at least had endowed his wife with all his worldly goods.

It was quite a while afterward before Mrs. Toung was calm enough to tell the things that were bottled up for many long weeka PERSECUTION, CHARGE "For fourteen months" she said, "Jim Toung ha spent time and money persecuting me, tormenting me, crucifying me, buying cheap detective to hound and 11a about me. He haa threatened mo. He has pointed revolvers at my face. He haa said he would buru down the house In which I live.

He has called me every vile name he could think of. "Since my Interlocutory decree, he has asked me to be his mis tress. He has asked me to set aside the decree of divorce and re marry him. He has asked me to go away with him for one week endand damned me heartily by letter wnen i reiusea without thank. "He ha offered me $2000 to re turn to him hi Ku Kim Kuan membership paper, and to give him back the bundles of letters he ha received from women some of them so vtl they couldn't be printed.

"I have proof, ot everything I nave sal a. "I can prove, too. that I made him a commercial success, that when I first met him he was mak ing but $350 a week, that I took charge of financial arrangements, made contracts for him whereby he cow gets $15,000 for every pio-ture he directs, that I was able to assure Selznick and Joseph Schenck and others that he would live up to his contracts. I never want it to be remem bered that I was married to him, that I bore his name. I Intend to drop his name at once and go back to the good old New England nam of Whlppl.

FATHER'S TEACHING "I had my opportunity to have this cas dismissed some time ago, but I refused for the very good reason that like Judge Hahn I learned at my father's knee to respect his nam. I went Into court to fight to take from that name all the mud with whioh Jim Toung besmirched It. I have proved now that he had no case and my life in the future will prove he never could have had a case."

I'm supposed to have been in her company months be fore I ever met her. This deteo tlve's story is a pitiable lie.

"Mrs. Toung came to see me when I was laid up with a broken back the result of a stunt that went wrong In a movie picture. Naturally when this divorce business cam up I waa eager to help her. "Toung had employed detec tives to hound her. They were al ways around her home or following her when she went out.

We decided after a conference with the Nick Harris Detective Agency officials to bring matters to a head. She employed this man Oule to guard her home. "The other side seems to have bought Mr. Oule and he has been wise enough to beat it for Mexico."

Of course we know that our med- Icinedoes benefit the large majority of women who take it. But that only two out of 100 received no benefit ia most astonishing. It only goes to prove, however, that a medicine specialized for certain definite ailments not a cure all one that is made by the most scientific process; not from drugs, but from a combination of nature's roots and herbs, can and does do more good than hastily prepared prescriptions. You see, we have been making, improvingand refining this medicine for over 50 years until it is so perfect and so well adapted to women's needs that it actually has the virtue to benefit 98 out of every 100 women who take it. It's reliability and recognized efficiency has gained for it a sale in almost every country in tho world leading all others.

For some time a circular has been enclosed with each bottle of our medicine bearing this question: "Have you received benefit from taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound?" Replies, to date, have been received from over 50,000 women answering that question. 98 per cent of which say YES. That means that 08 out of every 100 women who take the medicine for the ailments for which it is recommended are benefited by it "This is a most remarkable record of efficiency. We doubt if any other medicine in the world equals it Think of it only two women out of 100 received no benefit 98 successes out of a possible 100.

Did you ever- hear of anything like it? We must admit that we, ourselves, are astonished. Such evidence should induce every woman suffering from any ailment peculiar to her ecs to try Lydia E. Pinkham's" Vegetable Compound and see if she can't be one of the 93 THE LYDIA F1NKHAM MEDICINE CO Lynn, Mass. unique exhibit..
