HUSBAND V. WIFE
CLAIMS HE WAS NEGLECTED What, is said to he a novel claim as far as Gisborne is concerned may come before the court, in the neat' future, when a husband may possibly proceed against his wife for negligence and to seek damages, the wife having money in her own right. It. is alleged filial the woman has persistently neglected her household duties to the detriment of -.the health of her husband. The final "straw that broke the camel’s back” was the failure of the tvife, after agreeing to the request, to bring home a bottle of Brannvcll’s One Nought One, and the plaintiff ascribes a lengthy attack of influenza to this neglect. For coughs, colds, influenza and all chest complaints, it is a well-known fact; that Bramwell’s One Nought One, on sale at all leading grocers and stores in the Gisborne district, as well as on the East Coast and Wairoa, cannot be excolled by any other balsam on the market, and in addition to curing these complaints, acts as a tonic by cleansing the throat of all impure germs, so that, for the sake of half-a-crown, plaintiff alleges taht he lost a week’s work while suffering considerable pain.*
