Defendant, a tram conductor, said " the trouble, in a nutshell, was his mother-in-law," who had always interfered with him. He also said that bis wife, would not cook his meals for him. " I have even had to wash and iron my shirts and scrub the floor," said defendant. "I will give my wife another chance if my mother-in-law will keep away from us."

An old friend recommended Tamer Juicebrought a bottle to my house, in fact—and 1, to please him, really, took about 20 drops three times each day.
