AN ESTRANGED COUPLE. TROUBLES EXPLAINED IN COURT. HE WENT TO TARANAKI. At the Auckland Magistrate’s Court before I. V. Ifraser, S.M., an application for a separation and maintenance order was made hy.Mrs Kathleen Hearn (.Mr Lundon) against her husband, dames Edward Hearn (Mr Hackett). The complainant based her claim on

her husband’s alleged failure to maintain herself and their two children. She stated that the marriage took place three years ago, when she was 17 years of age. There had been various disagreements, and eventually her husband left his employment at Auckland, where he had worked as a tinsmith, and went to Waitara, where his mother lived, and since then he had | sent her so little that she had had to do washing to keep the children. Mr Lundon said that the defendant since March last had sent his wife £4 ss, and she now asked for an order for £1 a week, which he thought a very moderate demand. The trouble appeared to be that the husband was particularly anxious to live with his mother, in spite of the fact that she and his wife were quite unable to live in the same house without quarrelling. Ho was now living with his mother at Waitara. The wife expressed a distinct unwillingness to go down to Waitara to live, and declared that she did not want to live with her husband under anv circumstances.

The husband stated that he had been compelled through ill-health to leave his employment as a tinsmith. Ho made an effort to earn a living as a hawker, but did not make a success of it, and according he took a job at the Waitara Freezing Works. He was quite prepared to live with his wife and family, but he could not contribute £1 a week to their support in Auckland. The magistrate tried a little persuasion, and eventually the husband agreed to an order for 17s 6d a week. No separation order was made, as the parties had the prospect of living far apart in any case.

mm Grandfather Recommends Bennington’s. Grandfather has proved after many a test that the best remedy for coughs and colds is the famous family cough medicine—Bennington’s Irish Moss. There's nothing to equal it. For children or adults nothing else is so safe and sure. Free from harmful drugs, it soothes the irritation, breaks up the cold, and sets matters right again. Mr. Wm. Neighbours of Waimangaroa, writes:— “ It gives me great pleasure to recommend Bennington's Irish Moss for coughs, colds or any lung complaints, having used it in my family for 20 years. Refuse substitutes and get the original Bennington’s. 64 cahraceem 9HO
