TIRED OF DISHES.

WHY WIFE LEFT HOME

DOMESTIC MONOTONY.

(Sun Special.) LONDON, May 20. 5 “I was tired of seeing the same old wallpaper, cooking on fhe same ojld stove, and washing up the same old dishes,” said Mrs Fanny Sommerford, aged 28, explaining on her return to her home at Brighton why she had disappeared for five months. The police and the newspapers had failed to elucidate the mystery of her disappearance. There had not been any quarrel, as the wife admits, but she felt the need of a holiday from the monotony, and leaving her husband and three children, she took the- baby gild went to London, where she earned her -living. She had not minded the work, it was the monotony that did it, but when she read in the newspapers that litr children cried for her, she gave in. “Now the wallpapers seem new, and it is like being newly married,” she said.

It was a fine holiday, but she admits that she does not want another, because she missed her husband and ■children. .
